[SausageInYourFace]

Meanwhile in Bizzaro World Codex:

praising unreleased game as written by a literary genius with the best writing of all time surely to best even the likes of of PS:T = we are just excited, bro!
compairing unreleased game to less liked game with obvious and undeniable structural similarities = please stop spitting shit and vitriol, you need to play the game before voicing an opinion, retard!

you really built yourself some community in this thread, it feels like entering the mirror universe

obvious and undeniable structural similarities

Such as?

I rate Numenera very high as well. Disco Incline is up there in terms of writing.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

how do you measure the depth of writing? by the adjective occurrence ratio?

By how much the developers pay you to shill their product on various forums.

 

[Deleted Member 22431]

Dykes of Numenera was great, guys. This will end well. Let's all be positive about the release.

 

[Deleted Member 22431]

I’ve also been peripherally involved with the development (pro bono, no shekels involved).

Who cares! Did you tap that hot female developer or not?

Who cares! What we really want to know is whether you tapped that hot female developer or not. That's like important.

I will neither confirm nor deny

Should the game deliver, the butthurt will create a black hole.

Hardly. Grogs will continue to grouse about letting the riffraff in, cynics will continue to hate everything on general principles, and one or two people will be butthurt that Prime Junta was vindicated (again). Business as usual in other words.

that’s one of my favourite things about rap too lol confidence is so cute! And that pregnant protagonist idea is so cool!

So you are into black men, Sailor Woedica ? Do you want to be impregnated by one?

Reactionary propaganda detected. Should have featured young Stalin.

The inverse is also true, especially with the cabal hyping it to the heavens.

Publicly liking something carries a big downside risk. Being cynical about everything is the coward's way.

Not if you ignore the criticisms with fanboy logic if it turns out to be bad.

 

[Wunderbar]

Disco has skillchecks, dice-rolls, deep choices and consequences systems, good story.

It's more RPG than most of the trash released today. On top of that, it looks like a decent adventure detective game.

And let's not forget about the award-winning artwork.

I'm in.

you can't say "deep choices and consequences systems, good story" without actually playing and finishing it. Stop being such a fanboy.

 

[Prime Junta]

I have to say this though: if you intend to bash Disco Elysium just to make me feel bad, you're a cunt.

It's all about you isn't it. Why is that?

I have a very dedicated fan club. Small, admittedly, but dedicated. Maybe you should ask them?

• game is being lauded by prime junta who absolutely adored pillars of eternity

I see Prime Junta still didn't figure out that his relentless obnoxious shilling is exactly what caused half of the Codex to have allergic reaction to any mention of this game and that it's exactly because of him that keyboards are warming up to nitpick every tiny flaw it will have.

You sure are going out of your way to instil massive negative bias in anyone who isn't hyped for this game.

I don't care about the drama (I won't pick up this skill).
But. In terms of roleplay. Can we play many characters as Arcanum/Fallout? With a particular feeling for each of them?

I don't understand the question. Can you elaborate?

Hey, come on, I like you... most of the time. Please don't lump me in with these nerds. That comment was just my snarky way of pointing out that you don't seem interested in getting people to play this who are still on the fence, and also that I'm about 97% sure that your "best writing ever" claim is complete bullshit. I still am very excited by the 3% chance that it might not be.

 

[Grauken]

I'm about 97% sure that your "best writing ever" claim is complete bullshit.

I think he honestly believes that. It's just that people have so widely different assumptions about what constitutes good writing, that it doesn't say much in itself. We have to wait and see until the games comes out to check whether it works for each of us

There's a promise to play any cop. Is that real? Is playing a Thinker so different from playing a Bully? And above all, is there a lot of different archetype beyond the three they present to us?
