Luckily I’ve always kinda seen (at least aspects of it) as an interactive book on steroids, which is why I always read everything lol
But I rly degree save scumming in my first play through, took quite a bit of magic away as in “I’m bending the experience to my will and not enjoying it fully” which I’m trying to remedy nowBut ye, it is truly a masterpiece and a wonderful work of art. The experience is just 👌.
The fact that we’ll never get a true successor might just be the most disco thing about it all…But I’m always save-scumming to get Kim on the dance floor no matter what
“understandable, have a nice day”

Disco Elysium (translates from Latin to “I learn [the world of] Elysium” btw. OFC it’s disco AF too)
And yes, it’s been 6 years since release and 4 years since “The Final Cut”… ((:
I love this game sm. It’s such a welcome break from the neoliberal postmodernist slop, being a genuine piece of art. I love it’s materialist and politeconomic perspective on society; in general, the writing is just superb (there is no going back after it too, most games and art in general (including novels and films) might just seem mediocre afterwards)…
Initially played it in 2021 (but save scummed a lot :/ ). Both me as a person, and my understanding of political economy and philosophy have grown quite a bit since then.
I tried replaying it in 2023, but didn’t get very far (mostly due to mental health) Recently my interest in the game rekindled and I’m trying to play as a progressive social democratic superstar hobocop this time lol - Comment on Google's reCAPTCHA is not only useless, it's also basically spyware 3 months ago:
