Finished #DiscoElysium for the first time recently. Wow, what a game. The world building and writing are among some of the best I've seen from a game.....super cool to see a #CRPG that doesn't have any combat!

What's everyone else been playing lately? Any thoughts on DE? I highly recommend it though (don't buy it tho! Get it elsewhere! The original devs got fucked over by the company.) #GamingOnLinux #IndieGames

New Summer Eternal newsletter just dropped and they're quoting Engels.

(This is the project with Argo Tuulik, Olga Moskvina and Lenval Brown, among others.)

I finally "finished" Disco Elysium yesterday. I've played it a couple times and watched a couple let's plays but never got to the end.

It's really good.

It also explores the pitfalls of extremes in various political stances, in an alternate universe that feels like the early and mid-20th century earth.

Very thought provoking. Wonderful writing. Deep atmosphere. If you don't have the patience to play, watching a let's play is great, though you've got to let someone else make the decisions.

I enjoyed quill18's playthrough on YouTube. He's good because he is fluent in French, so he could translate some of the bits. And he chooses the communist path and leans into some of Harry's natural traits.

He still didn't unlock Cindy the Skull's brilliant meta dialogue about the role of counterculture in maintaining the status quo. I've only seen that once in 4 plays/views.

waiter! waiter! bring me more of my blorbos please!
seriously though where are the discoheads at (where the hood where the hood where the hood at), hmu

Make it about an underground dogfighting ring, the harsh complexities of small town life, skills in the form of animal ghosts that got stuck in your psyche during a failed ritual, and heavy environmental themes, and a Disco Elysium-style game about finding a cat in the Alps would slap, actually.

Disco Elysium's spin-off Locust City was the story of two grotty children and a boxful of insects - https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/disco-elysiums-spin-off-locust-city-was-the-story-of-two-grotty-children-and-a-boxful-of-insects #Birdview/Isometric #ActionAdventure #NintendoSwitch #XboxSeriesX/S #DiscoElysium #SinglePlayer #Exploration #StoryRich #XboxOne #Mystery #Indie #Text #PS4 #RPG #PS5 #PC

If you are a #DiscoElysium fan, you might like to see this before it is (likely) taken down from YouTube. It purports to be an internal presentation on X7, a project ZA/UM cancelled, that was set in the DE world but written largely by Argo Tuulik and Dora Klindžić:

I wished i had bought Disco Elysium like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/DiscoElysium/comments/1jm34cz/in_case_you_wanted_to_get_disco_elysium_on_steam/ #gaming #games #gamedev #discoelysium #disco

i live in an impoverished district of a large city that is ruled by greedy oligarchs (it's just like martinaise so it's a disco elysium reference)

Humble Bundle has a new bundle with several videogames, including Citizen Sleeper and Disco Elysium, and I personally recommend Disco Elysium all the time.

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/dice-and-destiny

Stepping away from the tabletop, #HumbleBundle has a deal for $13 that includes #CitizenSleeper and #DiscoElysium and it's worth it for those two games alone. I adore the first and have only dabbled in the latter but loved it, too.

It also includes #PillarsOfEternity 1 & 2, #RoadWarden, and #BrokenRoads, but 15% off Citizen Sleeper 2.

Seriously, if you don't mind a lot of reading in your video games, get these.

Igår började jag spela #DiscoElysium. Jag var ganska trött och orkade inte spela särskilt länge, kanske 30-40 minuter, men jag gillade det lilla. Nu kan jag inte sluta tänka på det och det är kul för att det var länge sen jag spelade något som var engagerade. #tvspel #gaming

Turns out the #DiscoElysium soundtrack is actually by (formally British) Sea Power. Shocked that music I listened to for so long was by a band I knew!

I have a terrible cold and don't feel like getting up today so I drew a sad disco man instead
