#How Did The Silent Observer Got The Photo (Theory)

I've watched the ARG analysis video RGN made about a few months ago and for months I have been wondering how The Silent Observer (Schruharsenal) got a picture of Hans Altmann despite him being a part of Hans' DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder). And so, after months of rewatching the video, I might have a rough idea on how he got this photo. For this theory I will refer to the two personalities as schruharsenal (Silent Observer) and lauscherhans (Main Character type guy). I will also discuss some other things along with this theory.

PART 1: The Silent Observer has more knowledge than Lauscherhans
So, by this time we all know that Hans Altmann suffers from Acute Dissociative Identity Disorder or DID for short. But this doesn't change the fact that the two personalities are equal in terms of IQ. They both specialize in cryptography and literature. But from watching the video, I can infer that schruharsenal has more knowledge than lauscherhans, here are some proofs:

-Seems to know more about what happened before they got into "his mansion".
-lauscherhan's explanation of the past seems murky and incomplete.

Therefore, I conclude that schruharsenal must've had MOST of Hans' memories before he got the disorder and therefore, had more knowledge than lauscherhans. Since DID supposedly makes gaps in memories and gives hallucinations to the patient, this doesn't seem to apply to memories before the patient got this disorder (idk if this is proven but by observing schruharsenal we can infer this).

PART 2: How He Actually Got The Photo
I do not know if someone actually suggested this before but I'll say it anyways. Since I said in the last part that schruharsenal might have more knowledge regarding the past, he might've known about the surveillance cameras all around the so called "mansion" Versic put around when they were placed there. So, after lauscherhans descended from the basement, schruharsenal went to the cameras and retrieved the photo/s.

I feel that it was set as a timer.

It's pretty lousy, but still.

#

It's a possibilty.

#

*possibility

#

For the picture of him going into the dungeon, I feel like there WAS an actual person, and not Hans' DID. What if it was like that? But this is all theorized

Expect more from me tomorrow

hm, actually the concept of 'before DID' doesn't really make from like most prevelant theories on how DID actually forms
DID is a lack of integration of identity not a sudden split or break or seperation in identity;

like the actual psychology behind how DID kinda forms is more like : everyone starts out with multiple 'ego states' that are focused around one thing; (eating, social interaction, playing, learning .. etc) until about 6-9ish (no one can agree exactly when) when you then are supposed to integrate down into a single cohesive identity; this doesn't happen if at the time you did excessive dissociation as a coping mechanism (usually; due to inescapable traumatic events) you can begin to dissociate yourself from these ego states and build up a bit of a 'dissociative' barriers between them, as a means to cope with what is happening to you; if this like continuously happens like alot, you will simply just not integrate when your 'supposed too' and and these 'ego states' remain basically forever; and over time develop into more defined identities, which are what are typically known as 'alters'

(this is a bit of an oversimplification; but like -- https://did-research.org/origin/structural_dissociation/)

also not being able to remember anything about your early childhoodand like before this 'happened is such an extremely common thing that it is litterally asked in all psychology assessments for the disorder, so im not sure about that -- it's kind of like .. half the point

(to be fair, "acute DID" also isn't really a thing that makes any sense .. .. it also (vaiguely) follows the stereotype of people w DID somehow being dangerous or harmful (though its not really clear as to what exactly happened) .. i have a feeling whoever wrote this doesn't know alot about the condition their trying to represent ..)

also; this is a nice theroy but ... .. words cannot express how difficult coordinating a camera to take a photo of yourself after you switch and then take a photo right as you walk into a specific area would be .. like the stars would have to align so goddamn much;

  • know or be aware of you leaving front
  • still be functional enough during that to setup a camera
  • have enough time before feeling like your going to leave, and actually leaving, to setup a camera
  • be away from the camera when they front so they don't immediately just see the camera
  • know that your alters are going to go into this place and like how long it'll take them to get there
  • somehow time it perfectly so it takes the photo right as the new alter is walking into the room

i .. this would be so goddamn extremely hard to do .. in practice lmao
