I attempted to play through it a while back and dropped it after an hour or so thinking it was pretentious garbage.

But I gave it another go and finished it last night and absolutely loved it. Definitely going to stick with me for a while.

Great game. I loved the music, the vibe, the characters, the Cuno, etc.

One of my favorite aspects is how there is no filler content. Even the most tangential feeling side mission ends up tying into the investigation somehow. So refreshing from the typical side mission of "let me go play delivery boy back and forth for these NPCs even though it has absolutely nothing to do with saving the world" type side missions.

I've been a bit curious about the game for a while now but never pulled the trigger on getting it.

Now that they just added it to PS+ Premium I'm definitely gonna give it a try and see what it's like.

The ending is perfect. Only flaw is the perception check should be auto success, and maybe the inland empire too

It's fun when you realize it's an isometric, CRPG story game with no combat and that's all it was ever meant to be.

Yeah, it was explained to me as an interactive story, so I thought of it as a Choose Your Own Adventure with lots of bells and whistles, and I loved it.

I went in kind of worried, after hearing there was no traditional combat, but I figured I had enough games that have it, so I decided to give it a try, and I ended up loving it.

iirc, they're working on a show, but I'm not sure how they could match the feel of the game.

Eh, it was alright. I think I get why people are so into it, its well written and pretty funny and insightful at times. They did a pretty good job of knocking all ideologies down a peg. But I also found myself slogging through conversations at times. Probably just not really my kind of game tbh

I died within like 5 mins. Character got heart attack trying to grab a tie off a ceiling fan.

Way too tough. Not really my type of game. I do like point n click adventures without combat system but only linear ones without many choices and rpg mechanics. Disco the opposite of that.

I liked it a lot. CRPGs are very rarely my thing but Disco Elysium was more enjoyable to me due to its lack of focus on exploring bloated worlds and combat, instead focusing on fleshing out one small area with lots of interesting NPCs and psychological/political narratives. The game took me about 28 hours to finish on my first playthrough, which felt perfect since it was enough time to get invested into the setting but not so long that it overstays its welcome like many other RPGs.

There's not gonna be a sequel. Even if there is a sequel it doesn't exist and there's no sequel.

By consequences I mostly meant your choices actually meaning something.
