  There's an eating disorder that's very similar to Jacket's eating habits. It's usually caused by some sort of trauma where there's only a handful of foods or a specific kind of food that your mind associates with comfort.

  The only real criticism is that you didn't touch on the fact jacket could be inspired by the Driver from the 2011 movie "Drive." as I recall Dennaton saying that Drive was a big influence on the story and the character of Jacket.

  But he's not a sociopath... He have severe PTSD and is looking for revenge for his friend, his country and later, his girl

  I like how the 5 second preview of this video is a guy buying Fortnite action figures. There's genuinely no better portrayal of a psychopath than that right there

  "Do you like hurting other people" is posed to jacket with anger, it's his guilt, as he lays comatose, I wont even touch on the somewhat cheeky philosophical stance to the player it has, but for jacket it's guilt.

  I just jumped while watching the video when the Jacket and Beard Honolulu&apos;s photograph appeared. That&apos;s my drawing !! I made that!! I didn&apos;t expect that sorry 😆❤<br>You could have used Dennis&apos; official version of the photo but you used mine, sweet!💖<br><br>Man I love the Hotline Miami fandom, sad that I&apos;ve been slacking on drawing more fanart.

  While I was in college I was forced to take a psychology class, and there I learned that the difference between a psychopath and a sociopath is that a sociopath actually cares about friends and family members, while not having any emotion whatsoever to strangers, while a psychopath experiences no emotions to anyone. So to me the fact that Jacket made a connection with his girlfriend to the point where he saved her and kept her safe with no reward to himself was enough proof that he wasn&apos;t a full psychopath, but it also wouldn&apos;t make perfect sense for a sociopath to do that either.<br><br>Then again I learned about this in one week in a class that had nothing to do with my major, so take that with a grain of salt.
