Current Events > Disco Elysium: Final Cut playthrough thread (spoilers)

(+) Yeah! (+)

This is one of those game's where I'm unhappy no matter what I choose for my stat distribution because there's so many possibilities.

I ended up choosing the 'Physical' template. I played a bit as the Intellectual but came to the conclusion that the protagonist is a bumbling unhelpful dick no matter his mind so I might as well be useful in a physical confrontation. Kim can do the real detective work.

I tried to sneak away from the bartender for my drinking tab and failed the dice roll, causing me to crash into the old wheelchair lady while throwing two middle fingers at him. What the fuck.

I went up to the Selenese supremacist, punched him in the face, then roundhouse kicked him. Surprised the game let me get away with that. It had a whole animation for the roundhouse kick and that was just one option.

I opened the secret compartment in my case notes and passed out. I guess that was my ex wife.

Still don't know my name but im processing the emotion of why I like the Cousteau pseudonym.

It sounds like your prozac is working good for you

I just chose a preset since I wasn't sure what I would want in a custom class. Some of the failed checks are great though and It's not often I felt like I was missing out or dissatisfied with an outcome. Playing with disparities stat wise as opposed to trying to balance your character seems to be the most enjoyable way to play for me.

I'm doing Inland Empire

Finally cut the body down. Kim managed to trust me with his gun and I shot it, pretty cool.

I've noticed that Composure and Half-Light together act sort of like a substitute for the high-intellect or empathy options. The game describes the Physical build as dumb as a rock, but he can be very street smart and quick-thinking.

This is what I mean about Composure, like I thought Composure was about staying cool in an interrogation but it lets you know random stuff like this

Looks pretty cool @_@

I saw the responses in teepans topic too and it sounds like a lot of fun ;_;

Ill get it.. eventually

This game does make me think like a detective. The local union boss gave me a key to the house of a "weasel", asking me that if I unlock his door then he'll cooperate with me further. My partner and I theorize that the union boss wants our presence there as a show of power, to make people think he has the police on his side. When I went in, I realized a piece of evidence found in a trash container that few people can open originated from inside the apartment; that evidence is associated with the murder victim's clothes. This is an interesting lead, but doesn't it seem too convenient? Like all along, the union boss wanted me to make this connection.

Got this after asking the corporate lady for 100 dollars and immediately leaving lmao

This game is endlessly compelling.

Nice, been wanting to play this for while now and haven't jumped the gun. Just been busy with other point and click RPGs but I appreciate the fact you put some images up

Looks cool @_@

I'm liking having my drama high. I'll make up lies but ham it up, then my inner drama voice will blame me for not having a convincing performance.

After I finish, im just going nuts. Gonna go do drugs with Cuno asap. Cuno's the shit
