So Happy I Bought It!
I was on the fence when I first saw the trailer, but after watching some reviews on Youtube and on other sources, I was still intrigued. TLDR: So glad I bought it at $40. So the price was a bit daunting at $40. On GoG, I never expected to pay full price for games, and up until this point I've bought games on sale at about $5 and been super happy with it. Disco Elysium changed that for me. This game is amazingly nerdy, and so frickin' funny. After the first 5 minutes of gameplay, where you wake up in a drunken amnesia, I was already licking dried rum off the countertop in a cafeteria. This alone made me bust up laughing. It is incredibly cheeky, witty, and is completely self-aware about it. I've never played a detective game before, but I'm so happy Disco is my first. The story is fascinating, and the sheer amount of options and rolls give me that sneaking feeling that if I had only played things a little differently, then maybe I would have seen a completely different side to the story or particular interaction with NPCs. The customization is amazingly well thought out. I love that the bulk of the game is played inside the character's--your--head. I am so truly impressed and am recommending it to anyone I can. By the way, I have been able to get Disco Elysium to play flawlessly on Linux with some tweaking via Lutris. Thanks for making such a quality product!
