Great game but...
The game is really great but the studio seems to have been overtaken by some investor. Maybe "borrow" the game instead of giving money to investor. The original dev team was fired :(

Overrated, quite frankly
I was really looking forward to this, maybe too much. Maybe my disappointment was my fault, for reading the developer blogs and believing what they said. They deliberately misrepresented the final product. The blog dealing with motorics skills makes it sound like there would be stealth mechanics, and numerous guns to find and use. There's neither. The blog dealing with the game's overall length is a pack of lies. It details an underground zone which doesn't exist. It claims the shipping yard area is its own zone, but it's just a couple of screens. It claims 90 hours of content, when the average length of play is 30 hours, which is consistent with my experience as a lifelong reader. What's good about this game? I think it has great art, especially for the skills. The character portraits do at least half the work in characterizing all the NPCs. (Whether any of them are likeable is another question, but they are identifiable). The writing occasionally made me laugh. And I think the way the gameplay mechanics are entirely centered around dialogue is worth looking at, because it is a new approach for the genre. I honestly believe it's a 6/10 game, and worth a run through if you like CRPGs. That's the only praise I can give it. This game has no combat, which is unusual for CRPGs. The marketing line is, it's like Planescape: Torment without all the unnecessary combat. That would be of interest, were the combat replaced with anything worthwhile, but it's not. All of the front-loaded content, railroading, and binary choice and consequence, that is present in most CRPGs, is present here. The result? It has no game mechanics except for dialogue choices and skill checks. The reactivity applies only to inconsequential lines of dialogue. In terms of influencing the story in a meaningful way, it is WORSE than most all other games. I wish I could go into more detail here. Maybe I'll make a video one day, but does anyone give a damn? If you know, you know. Numenera is better.

Unikalne growe doświadczenie
Do zakupu przekonał mnie w zasadzie już sam ekran umiejętności oraz myśli (=czegoś w rodzaju lekko psychodelicznych perków). Ten klimat czuć nawet na screenach, a już po paru sekundach od stworzenia postaci zaczyna wręcz wylewać się z ekranu... W skrócie: - Gra niby przypomina klasyczne RPG, ale jest oparta praktycznie tylko na dialogach i eksploracji, więc momentami gra się w nią raczej jak w przygodówkę albo (biorąc pod uwagę ilość tekstu) powieść graficzną. - Bywa rozkosznie dziwna, ale jednocześnie realistyczna. - Nigdy wcześniej nie czułem się tak bardzo jak detektyw (ocena miejsca zbrodni, trajektorii, śladów itd). - Tworzenie postaci to tworzenie umysłu: talent do określonych rzeczy ma wpływ sposób myślenia, podszepty intuicji i pomysły... Mówiąc inaczej - gracz prowadzi dialogi nie tylko zewnętrzne, ale również wewnętrzne, a każda z 24 umiejętności ma swój "głos". W żadnej grze nie wczułem się tak mocno w psychikę głównego bohatera. - Jest tu trochę humoru, ale raczej subtelnego i wpasowującego się w ten świat (niby podobny do naszego, a jednak inny, osobliwy). - Skończyłem w 30 godzin, nie spiesząc się za bardzo (choć niektóre nużące dialogi o ideologiach, komunizmie, historii itd przeklikiwałem) - Gra nagradza dociekliwość, ciekawość, szukanie alternatywnych rozwiązań. Podsumowując, moim zdaniem to jedna z tych gier, które zapamiętuje się na lata. Nie żałuję zakupu za pełną cenę.

Breathtaking in its best moments
In those moments when Disco Elysium hits the right mixture of its message, its mystery, and its heart, the game is truly phenomenal; a work of beauty. I found myself simultaneously inspired and crushed when it was able to achieve those heights. And then I would spend hours aimlessly wandering around because I didn't hit the right conversation stat check to unlock the game's progression. Such is the dichotomy of the game: I pushed through the moments in which it was a tediously long-winded illusory exercise in thought-wank to hopefully arrive at another poignant and powerful experience. Whether or not you will enjoy the game will depend on how willing you are to go on that kind of a ride. The game is not an RPG, regardless of how it wants to characterize itself; there is only one way to play through the game. Player choices and character builds only serve to affect the narrative framing of the experience. More akin to a visual novel than a crpg. It is also not a mystery game that you as the player can solve. The elements required to "solve" the case are hidden behind conversation triggers that you have to experience in a fixed progression. Need to find a suspect in hiding? Don't go looking for them on your own; they're not in the game until you have the conversation which triggers them to be in the game. Want to find your gun? You need to work with the person who is blackmailing you; you won't find it any other way. This design for the game almost had me quit multiple times in frustration. That and the large amount of illusion of choice. In spite of how entertaining and interesting a lot of the dialogue options are and the conversation possibilities they open up, most (perhaps all?) of the time it has no real consequence on the game's trajectory. Ultimately I think it was still worth playing, but I am a bit disappointed that the result didn't live up to the promise. A few different design decisions and I think this game could have been incredible.

Best RPG ever. DO NOT BUY!
The way dialogues are done makes it the best role playing game ever in my opinion. BUT The investor took over the studio and original game creators were thrown out. Sad, strange and silly situation.
