That's on the publisher's (relatively unknown) channel. The same video got 111K views Obsidian's channel and 363K views on Playstation channel, not to mention videos hosted on places like IGN.

Disco Elysium isn't even in the top 100 most wishlisted games on Steam, it's on page 6.

Steam followers (those who subscribed to announcements) is also useful number to look at. Disco has 9,685 followers: https://store.steampowered.com/dlc/632470/Disco_Elysium/

Encased, probably the most anticipated indie CRPG, has 15,380 followers.

(For those who about to compare these to already released CRPGs, followers usually increase greatly after the launch.)

They're doing good for indies.

Colony Ship has 3,942
Queen's Wish has 2,537
Copper Dreams isn't even on there yet

This game made a strong impression on me when it was No Truce With The Furries and the dev was shitposting here every day and it was just their first little game, due out in 2016. Three years later it's finally coming out and I haven't forgotten about it, but not that excited. Dunno if it's still AOD-style choose-your-own-adventure, that was my main complaint back then, maybe they've changed it. It still looks artsy and experimental and heavy on dialogue.

But it's probably better than Obsidian shit. I might give it a chance if it's cheap.

All negative Nancys can suck on donkey anus, this game looks fantastic. Gimme!

So is Disco Elysium the first RPG to use the term "cum-stained"? Truly groundbreaking if so.

Possibly, though I'm sure NWN modules may tip the scales if they can be included. What's cum-stained in Disco, anyway? Guess I missed that memo. Goddamn furries.

I'm ready for this. If it's like Numenera I will be pleased.

Imagine that. Pretending to be Infinitron and Zep Zepo at the same time.

These pants you can wear.

This is from the older trailer, so hopefully that typo is fixed by now.

My mind is like sieve nowadays, but wasn't this going to be an EGS exclusive at some point?

 

[InD_ImaginE]

Thanks for releasing the game on my 80 hours week GDI

Can you guys please release it like 5 days earlier or something

Still, D1P

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

We will pray for you.

It was going to be published by Humble, but apparently something happened since it's no longer for sale on the Humble store and Humble is no longer listed as the publisher on Steam. Unfortunately it's probably something they can't talk about but I'm really fucking curious what went down.

I wouldn't be surprised if Humble was pushing them to go EGS exclusive thanks to their "partnership" with Epic.

 

[Grauken]

Humble liked the original title more and ZA/UM wasn't willing to compromise over Disco ball

 

[Zombra]

You'd expect with this many Melnorme on the case, someone would know what was up.

But no one wouldn't tell, unless someone pays credits upfront.

 

[Deleted Member 16721]

I should do a YouTube Let's Play of either this game or one of the others releasing soon.

Don't forget about Encased.
