This is NOT a good game.

This game turns out to be a crushing disappointment for me, after reading so many enthusiastic reviews, calling it the best RPG of all times etc. Well, it's not. At all. Disco Elysuim is a very weird and uneven package. It has OK'ish, blurry graphics, weak user interface, very dated design, no music, poor sound, almost no voiceacting and when it has it, it's mediocre at best. Leveling your character when a level up comes up has no practical sense, the entire game mechanics revolves around hoarding skill points until a check comes up, adding them on the fly and then passing the check presented. Rinse and repeat. Change clothes if the check is really hard. Making a failed check being OK for the story is a good design choice, but it's really not revolutionary and when a failed checks yields the same results as a passed checks, you feel like what you actually do in a game has no impact at all. Internalizing a thought, while a neat idea, has a lot flavour sense, but almost no mechanical sense and very little impact on your game. Characters are pretty OK, not very memorable tbh but at least well - written. World building is the best part about this game and while presented in a unattractive way, it's rich and well done. Dialogues are good, humour is present and while I liked it, it's a matter of personal taste. The idea of consulting different parts of your brain is interesting and I liked it, but its nothing to write home about. The story is overall OK, the "murder" part is about average and not very engaging, based upon running from point A to point B and making skill checks. The "personal" part is more engaging and I liked it, though the ending of it is pretty shallow. This game has a lot of reading in it (about Planescape: Torment amount), and if you want to experience a good detective story, you'll be better off just reading one of Agatha Christie's books. TLDR: it's an average game, over-hyped to be something truly special. And it's not.

true heir to planescape:torment

your character wakes up, coming off a bender of epic proportions, and fully amnesiac. it turns out you're in revachol, a slowly decaying remnant of revolution and war, and you're a cop, and you're here to investigate a murder of somebody whose dead body is still hanged in the backyard… you are a mess - bloated, pathetic, with a host of warring impulses and demands fighting for space in your head - but thankfully there's a pillar of stability waiting downstairs: kim katsuragi, your assigned partner, a man with godlike sense of dignity and endless patience for your bullshit. together you can investigate a crime, stop a small civil war, and maybe, if you play your cards just right, dance a truly epic dance together in a shot-up church. there are also cryptids, karaoke, board games, mystery of a crashed police car, discovering your own feelings about the homo-sexual underground, and many other things. the thing is, it's the kind of a game where you perform field autopsy on an old corpse while preteen kids are watching avidly and offering their color commentary. a lot of bad things happen - to you, to the people around you, to the town around you, to the world around you. the weight of the history is heavy, and you're small. you can't solve decades of war and trauma and poverty with the power of your save-scumming and pithy one-liners, alas; but you can solve a murder. you can help a sweet and worried old woman. you can put your cheek to a kid's fuzzy plush toy, when offered. you can tell a person, that their loved one is dead, and lie about how drunk they were when they died. you can sit on the swing with your partner, waiting for the tide, and whistle together - two birds on the wire… it's the gentlest, kindest, sweetest, most hopeful game i've seen in the last decade. it's a manifesto to human spirit, and to how only love and hope holds the world, always falling apart, together. everybody is human; everybody is awful; everybody is holy, even you.

Exceptional

A masterpiece. Amazing dialogue an a story with some great twists and turns. There is no wrong answer as such, and each path will lead to it's own story. I really enjoyed the voice acting too. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will come back to it again no doubt.

Innovative, text-based approach on cRPGs

There are many parallels drawn to Planescape: Torment. I can see where those are coming from, but I disagree. Expect nothing like P:T (which was a great game, too) except that it's text heavy as well. Even more text-heavy. The plot and the setting is innovative and but different from P:T, party interaction is not half as complex or deep, the way the text and the dialogs are presented is something completely new. Same goes for the attributes. Pros: - Innovative and for the most parts well executed skill and dialog mechanics, for example how you can influence a dialog's outcome - Deep lore and complex dialog trees, which – combined with the broad variety of attributes – encourages multiple playthroughs - Great writing - An interesting world you move in - Nice arts and moody soundtrack - A nice and unconventional story with some twists. Not as deep or as stunning as P:T I'ld say, but it keeps you going. Cons: - All the walking is a bit tiresome in the end - Sometimes you have to move through too many loading screens (especially a balcony which becomes important later in the game) - Encourages save scumming. I'ld have preferred fixed thresholds. If you're good with hand eye coordination, you're just pointlessly frustrated if screw up a shot. And if you just suck with that coordination, you'll just re-load until it finally works out, breaking the immersion. - Unforseeable dead-ends are possible. Not like "entering a dungeon without a sword" but more like "being out of money in the wrong moment".

One of the best RPGs I've ever played.

Disco Elysium is a choose your own adventure novel disguised as a video game. This is a fantastic thing, because the writer is absolutely incredible at writing. Funny, depressing, poignant, and surprisingly fair-handed to a number of outsider philosophies and political beliefs, you're going to find a lot to love here. It's not just the writing that makes DE great though, the game play ideas they've implemented are excellent. To name a few: -Your stats are your party members, and upgrading them makes them pipe up during conversations more often. So, if you upgrade authority, your inner monologue starts urging you at every turn to assert your authority.... even when that would be cruel or ill-advised. Upgrading your trivia stat will give your amnesiac hero more basic information about the state of the world... at the expense of drowning out conversations with un-necessary minutae. -Your choices actually have impacts, with various plot threads weaving in and out of each other throughout the game, and almost all of them connecting in some way to the main mystery. -Characters are dynamic, believable, and best of all _human._ Racists, Union goons, friendly dock-workers, drug-peddling techno-blasting teenagers... no two characters are alike, and they all add unique ways for your troubled detective to bounce off them. Give this game a go, it's absolutely stellar.
