Greatest detective game of all time.
Disco Elyisium is a minimalist RPG and a literary piece of art. I highly recommend it if you're interested in nihilisim and post modernism. Deep deep game.

Best Role Playing Game for Decades
A role playing game in the most appropriate sense - you don't just level up skills, your develop your character's personality, preferences, and approaches to problem solving. An incredible atmosphere, fantastic character design, and a sublime/grotesque art style - this is one of my favourite games ever made.

A one-of-a-kind masterpiece
This game is a true masterpiece of RPG's, there's so many playstyles, so many different dialoge options that truly makes you feel like every little action and decision you make has a consecuence. The characters are so well written and the atmosphere and soundrack are amazing. The only "downside" is that for some people it may get a bit boring because there is a lot of reading and no combat, but for me that only enriches the experience, it feels more intimate, and grounded.

Disco Elysium is an experience
Disco Elysium is hands down the best game I have ever played. - Gameplay: it has a unique approach to RPG. At the beginning you choose the abilities you want to focus on, like any other RPG. The higher the score the higher the probability of success. But here is the twist. Success and failure are not clear cut. You can succeed at something and wish you didn't or you can fail and it can be wild and owning up to your failure as a badge of honor. - The protagonist: since the beginning you have a rich internal landscape which is shaped by the kind of character you have chosen to be. Those characteristics are voices inside of your head that make for very interesting (and often hilarious) internal monologues. DE is a game that rewards the player going off the script, trowing the script completely out of the window. IT. IS. FUN. - The story: it is never banal. You are a mess while the world around you seems to collapse. There are politics, history, social and philosophical themes, mystery and the soprannatural/mystical - The setting: the city of Revachol is so beautifully depicted. It is raw and poor, and reminds of a post sovietic city. There are opposing factions, each one with their own agenda and view of the world. The contrast between the messy and broken protagonist and the people of Revachol is striking: where everything is exaggerated in you, the people around you defy clichèes. The writing does a conscious efforr of hooking you up with the usual tropes, only to deconstruct them and revealing deeply human and complex characters that don't fit neatly into a box. - The art: the whole game is beautifully handdrawn. The music and sound accompany the player and convey emotions. The final cut also has voice acting which adds to the depth of the game. All in all. I loved every minute of this game!

A pleasant surprise
A CRPG game that tries a different approach to its story and encounters and succeeds mostly in all avenues, where is biggest asset is it's writing and the murder mistery that become deep rabbit hole that will throw you some curve balls in the way. If you're mildly interested, give it a shot. Now I understand what was the buzz around the game when it came out.
