>severe mental illness
>the obvious problems you'd get from living in a world like this as a cavelady
why not a character that actually has a mental illness like schizophrenia or bipolar disease or something? and doesn't exploit these things to give an illusion of a deep character, shows the disease in a fair light and a realistic way.

>why not
Because it'll be shit. Probably much like whatever is going into hellblades development
anxiety, depression, delusions, hallucinations
schizoaffective disorder

Max was never mentally ill, more like detached, addicted, bitter and disillusioned, for good reason.
Sure you can argue about the dreams but that's just an onset from grief and anger.

It would be hard to express things like delusions and mania and depression in a video game story
Even novels with a similar subject are usually complex enough to deter average readers from getting into them, let alone the average gamer
