What's your Cop-o-Type?
Until Disco Elysium came to my life, I never realized I desired to become a drunken, drugged-up mentally deranged cop, that simultaneously preached the benefits of libertarian capitalism and radical Marxism, while proclaiming that End Is Nigh. Now, I no longer have that Disco shaped hole in my life. As for the review itself. Visually the game is pretty but not impressive or hard on the hardware. It's very impressionistic, which fits the theme of a washed-up cop, recovering from a bender that gave him amnesia. The gameplay is relatively simple. Time passes when talking and reading books, otherwise, it stands still. There are a few days for you to finish your investigations but most quests don't have a strict time limit. You have Skills Check you can pass. Some skills are Once Per Lifetime (Red checks) and Once Until I Level the Skill (White checks). There are critical fails and successes that you can win regardless of your skill level, just don't bet on those two sixes. Your skills are also characters that will drive most of the story, providing hints and commentary. Be careful about leveling them too much or they might decide to take over. There are also "Upgrades" AKA Thoughts in your Thought Cabinet, where you can internalize certain thoughts, to get a permanent boost. While internalizing your thoughts you may experience some adverse effects. Also, some thoughts may unlock some White checks. Not all thoughts are created equal, but you can discard them, at the cost of 1 Skill point. A skill point you could have used to level up one of your relevant skills. Additionally, there are different items you can equip, that can help you pass some skill checks, but it very quickly weers into absurd. But forget about the review. The reason this game is great is that its writing is stellar. No, I take that back. The writing is a neutron star going supernova. It along with a great soundtrack carries this game to be my personal Game Of The Year.
