The rare PC title ported to console for once instead of the other way around?

Alright, I finished the game in a few days. It was pretty cool. I disliked some of it (for instance, I think that the latter half of the game has certain problems with focus and, therefore, with pacing) but it may be the best written wordy game I've ever played. It also quite succeeded with existential and political themes. All this crypto- stuff about the beauty and wonder of the world that we haven't broken apart yet was actually mesmerizing.

So I guess Estonians did good. Huh, never expected that.

Disco Elysium didn't actually win the poll (that's the "People's Choice" award at the bottom, won by Asgard's Wrath). IGN's judges selected it, and good on them.



People have started making their own Discosona's on tumblr so I think this game has definitely been a total success by most standards even before the awards✨

Started gaim. Reached for necktie. Died.

Restarted gaim 6 times. Died 6 times reaching for necktie.

Combat in this RPG is too difficult. Plx fix.

Just wait 'til you encounter the chair, the door, and <gasp> the barbells.

It is funny to think: these Estonian guys just decided to do RPG GOTY, and they did it. It is great. It simply is.

Yeah, it's weird. Most of the time when somebody goes "hold my beer and watch this" it just ends up hilarious, or tragic, or both.

(Then again that describes Disco Estonia pretty well.)

Well, if the novel came out in 2013, I suppose, it was a LONG walk from the start.

They start counting from the beginning of the tabletop campaign that created the world. That’s over 15 years ago.

Well, this is like rehearsing for half of the life and then to do a gig. Very nervous, but no wonder that you know your shit.
