Comment on Looking for game recommendations
Ashtear@lemm.ee 1 year agoI agree with the rec here. I think at this point OP is just going to have to roll the dice on the recent hits and see if it can change some of their tastes. Or just drop the medium altogether.
Maybe it’ll help a little that Disco Elysium is isometric, not top-down. Though it’s an RPG. And text-heavy. 🤷♀️

Yeah, being isometric does help. Though the thing that steers me away from Disco Elysium is not the text-heaviness (which I don’t really mind), nor the RPGness (since it seems that it’s been implemented quite uniquely in this game), but that there may be some kind of alien insects (?) in the game.

I damn near guarantee the “alien insect” is not what you’re imagining, and even if it were, it’s less than 1% of the game.
It’s one element of a larger setting, the kind of original idea that we rarely see in RPGs. It’s not your typical fantasy tropes. I’m being vague here because discovering the nature of the world you’re in is a big part of the game.

Oh really? Then I’ll take a look.
