If by "esoteric fulfillment" you mean "personal fulfillment" then I may have to disagree with you. Maybe "it might be worse ..." really means "he might be worse" if he stayed. The individual and self-fulfillment probably shouldn't be given free reign, especially when a family is involved, but at the very least, it raises some very difficult moral questions.
If Nietzsche has taught us anything, it is that our needs determine our values -- and in this respect, you and I are no different.
I just saw the last moments of this clip. I'm glad this was just a test him and Sigmund were performing. Perhaps the greatest will to power is love. Love what you do. Remember your "first" love.
I enjoyed the film, but the first two minutes of this, to me is an error either in the film maker or Neitzsche's philosophy. Esoteric fulfillment no mater how great can not replace the distruction brought to a family. Do not give me "it might be worse if he staid excuse." That is presumptuous and given to the subjective.There are moments of rashness to will to power, but not everything is to be sacrificed.Moderns enjoy the impulsivity and vivacousness of Neitzsche, but I think it is misplaced.
In real freedom someone must resist to evil as much as to good moments too, this was the point of Nietzsche, spouse children career money do not matter, cause none of these you take away when you die.You are not anymore and everything else is left behind you.
Deep self examination and thought experiement saved him and his family life..Perhaps ?

It can be painful, even insulting, to watch others give up what we value most. But I must admit that I can relate to Breuer's move here.
I gave you a thumbs up.

Josef Breuer has his head up his ass for trying to give up his family and spouse.
