  1. Haluan pelata #DiscoElysium ”The Final Cut” versiota. Miks mun pitää vuonna 2026 ”ladata sisältöä” enne pelaamista?!

  2. Kleines Reminder um 2 Uhr nachts: Der Soundtrack von Disco Elysium ist ein Meisterwerk. Harry Du Bois verdient dich nicht, aber das Akkordeon tut es. 🎻

    Falls du das Spiel noch nicht gespielt hast: Es ist weniger "Game" und mehr "literarische Depression in Spielform" – und ich meine das als Kompliment.

  3. "It is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism."

  4. Huh, Kay and Skittles on YouTube thinks that Disco Elysium is cyberpunk that isn't set in the future.

    🤔 ... No lies detected!

  5. #discoelysium HOLY SHIT

    his name is Harrier because

    he is DIRTIER HARRIER

  6. Peaky Blinders has heavy Disco Elysium parallels, and same energy. Corrupt police, severe power imbalances, part of the city being effectively policed and managed by a gang, a bar with a special room where the gang hangs out, industrial union organizing, communism, blonde femme fatale spy, only one phone for a whole neighborhood.

  7. So, in other news, I played Esoteric Ebb over the last week or so.
    I thought it was good, but not as good as Disco Elysium, which I'm on record as thinking is the best (computer) RPG ever made. This is relevant because Esoteric Ebb is very open about being influenced by the latter, and by the most philosophical of the late-90s/early2000s D&D video games, Planescape: Torment - broadly, it's approximately D&D 5e mechanics and a homebrew setting with metacommentary on D&D tropes (some of which as well worn as the fact that Enchantment is the most overtly evil school of magic, some of which becomes a bit overly postmodern for me), with DE's "your attributes speak to you", "you can internalise thoughts for bonuses", "politics is everywhere" and general approach to time passing and interactions.
    Interestingly, the lone dev does *not* do 5e combat straight - it's a sort of fusion of DE's one combat encounter ("make choices in the same mode as everything else, but with higher stakes") and D&D initiative order and to-hit mechanics. What I find a little irritating about reviews of EE is how they call this innovative, when it's not even innovative for *tabletop* RPGs - there's plenty of systems which don't do D&D's turn-based mechanical approach to combat (including games where combat can be a single die roll, just like anything else, if it's not particularly important to the flow of the game).
    And, I guess, broadly, this might also be why I'm generally not as incredibly enthusiastic about EE as reviewers seem to be - it's well-written, there's parts that are even quite effecting (but nothing as good as the best of DE)... but the fantasy-kitchen sink setting and the general "D&D wackiness" of it really detracts from the focus that made DE a truly excellent game.

  8. Here, have a motivational "Disco Elysium" quote! 😊

  9. Aaaand "Disco Elysium" finished!

    Like the first time, it was really fun. One of the best-written games I know.

    I'm satisfied with everything I've achieved and how the ending played out.

    Maybe "Esoteric Ebb" next, which seems to be considered the best, similar game.

    #DiscoElysium

  10. Ich hab Esoteric Ebb gerade durchgespielt. Tolles Spiel mit tollen Twists! Viel zu lesen und nachzudenken.

    Definitiv wert mehrere Runs zu machen. Beim Ersten hab ich mich einfach treiben lassen und auch nicht alle Quests gelöst.

    Snell ist einfach der beste Buddy!

    Wer sowas wie Disco Elysium, oder auch Planescape Torment mag, sollte sich das definitiv anschauen! Hoffe da kommen noch mehr Spiele, wie im letzten Dialog angedeutet.

  11. My current Disco Elysium playthrough is going well. If I don't screw up the last thing, I'll also manage to get all pieces of *that* armor this time. 😊

    Kim likes me, as is proper!

    I really wonder how different of a person I was at my first playthrough in 2020.

    Back then I seem to have gotten the "Baddest Hustler In The Neoliberal Hood" and "The World's Most Laughable Centrist" achievements, which you get by using enough "Ultraliberal" and "Centrist" answers in conversation.

    ME getting an ultraliberal achievement?! What did I do?! 😁

    But well, this time I got "Unbelievably Boring F**k" (sic!) (Giving enough boring answers) and "Biggest Communism Builder" (giving enough left-winged answers), so, yeah, let's see how the last fourth or so of the game will work out this time!

  12. I need to feed this account! Here is a print I just released, the cover of a Disco Elysium fan-made zine that sold out. Now available on your wall!

  13. Character creation is always fun in RPGs. And while you can't adjust too much in Disco Elysium's "creation", you already see all the different skills and how different they are from regular RPGs.

    And, in case if you haven't followed my earlier Disco Elysium praise that I fall into every few months: all these skills are voices in your head that actually talk to you in the game.

    And Disco Elysium has some incredible writing.

    #DiscoElysium

  14. It would also mean I could write down a ton of quotes again, because everything in that game is highly quotable!

    "The working class has no country. Their countrymen are the other workers of the world." - Evrart Claire

    "And then you see it. As it strangles and beats your friends to death...the sweetest, most courageous people in the world. You see the fear and power in its eyes. Then you *know*"
    "What?"
    "That the bourgeois are not human."
    - The Deserter

    And my motivational favorite:
    "Subdue the regret. Dust yourself off, proceed. You'll get it in the next life, where you don't make mistakes. Do what you can with this one, while you're alive." - Volition

    Edit:
    One more!

    "Fascism offers the illusion of strength, but in truth, it is the weakness of fear turned into policy."

    #DiscoElysium

  15. I feel the interest arise to start yet another playthrough of "Disco Elysium" and this time try to get the full armor set...

    But that means I'd have to play all the beginning for a third time.

    But that also means I could also get all the Communism-related achievements on Steam, as well. Mhhh...

    #DiscoElysium

  16. Just finished Disco Elysium. Recommended!

    Electrifying. Cerebral and surreal; the world of Disco Elysium captures the mind and doesn't let go, even long after the story has ended.

  17. Esoteric Ebb ist ja mal ganz super töfte. Ich hab ja schon Disco Elysium sehr gemocht, aber hier gibt's zudem noch Würfel und ein gewisses Pen & Paper Rollenspiel Feeling. Ziemlich cool!

  18. My husband played the demo of Esoteric Ebb, and we got into a discussion about whether it’s too similar to Disco Elysium or if we are witnessing the birth of the “discolike” genre convention.

    He said there will be discourse about how “it’s not a discolike, it’s a discolite, because the protagonist isn’t addicted to anything”

    (He does like it, for the record: store.steampowered.com/app/212 )

  19. I've seen several playthroughs of Disco Elysium (one was over eighty hours), played it partway through twice myself, and seen several video essays about it (including one by Jeffiot that was *five* hours).

    Since I usually don't like to repeat content, I wondered why I was so obsessed with it.

    From a video essay, this quote answered that and hit me hard at the same time.

    "Disco Elysium isn't really about getting better. The more I played, the more I realized it wasn't teaching me how to fix myself. It was teaching me how to move while I was still broken." Jazz Stewart, YouTube

    (If you've not experienced a run or partial run of this game, this video will not be the best introduction. I'm just including it as the quote source. If you're interested, it's best to play it or watch a playthrough, preferably raw without knowing too much about it.)

    (But also it's a fine video to watch if you're already a fan.)

  20. I'm going to try to do a few things today but if I end up back on the couch, it's going to be either a visit all my friends in Revachol day or be a little solidarity worker bee in the UCA.

  21. Been thinking about taking the tooling I built for unnamed gas station (my #GGJ entry) and packaging it into a #godot plugin.

    I want more people to make disco-like games (in reference to #DiscoElysium ) and this tooling would definitely make it a lot easier to do so.

  22. Finished my #HarryKim #fanart, which I haven't touched since last year. I didn't want it to hang for another year. So here it is. Best with "The instrument of Surrender" as a souundtrack. #art #DiscoElysium

  30. Last look of the weekend. It's a remix of my street fair look. I was feeling a way about my body so I'm not posting that one. This one however is one for the archives.
    (The second photo is an expression of pain.)

  33. Uwielbiam #Wałbrzych. Dziś odkryłem że kojarzy mi się z #Revachol z #DiscoElysium. Choć w Wałbrzychu nie widać zniszczeń wojennych jak w #Martinaise, a z każdym przyjazdem pięknieje to bije tu ta sama energia dawnej mocarstwowej świetności. (via twitter)
