Incline Disco Elysium - The Final Cut - a hardboiled cop show isometric RPG

[fantadomat]

I really need to find the energy to play this, I feel like it's a full-focus commitment to play.

It's <20 hours. Do it pussy.

how do you read so fucking fast? it took me 40+ hours.

Don't take the Encyclopedia skill. Word count reduced by 25%. Not having any "intellect" skill probably removes >40% of the word count.

Yet that shit is the most interesting in the game. I disliked the melodrama ones and the deranged ones,like sucking a door knob.

Encyclopedia and logic,plus a endurance for chad racist play .

That said they did over did it,should have made it 3 personalities per attribute and one negative or something similar. Better to have a dozen well done ones than a 30 participation awards.

20-30H according to How Long To Beat

Anyway, 27hours for me, and we played at 2 behind the screen (with my wife), which means we had some debate on what to say and different reading speed depending on the cases.

Thankfully all of them get some amount of screentime as it were. As for negatives, no point in that since all of them have both possible and negative qualities - both when they're low and when they're high.

I read very fast.

But do you understand what you are reading?

Yes. I learned how to read when I was 3 or so, and as a turboautist I perform more communication with text than with speech, so it's no wonder I'm fast at reading and have good reading comprehension. I use text for communication every day, speech only when I go out

Besides, other people here had similar hour counts to me, so it's not like I've played through the game exceptionally fast. And I didn't rush through it either.

 

[ValeVelKal]

I think a key difference on the time spent is on whether you savescum or not.

I took the decision some 10 years ago to not savescum and not reload as long as I am not dead in my games (accept-the-consequence), it made all my games 50% more enjoyable and in Disco Elysium it just created a perfect flow.

Well, I do savescum in puzzle games, in officially-strat-games-but-really-puzzle-games (eg Unity of Command) or after a developer-dick-move in tactical games.

Well, there is no point in savescumm in Disco anyway. Sometimes it is more interesting to fail (not that :teleportation: check. fuck this part).

Yeah,they did a good job of flashing them out,tho a lot of them do have similar use. In my book it would have been better if it was smaller,more focused number. As for the negative,ahhh they do it well in the game,but is still skippable and up to the player as a choice.

We do live in very sad world .

And yeah little fishes is clearly slow at reading. 20-30 hours is pretty accurate number for the game. I was even butthurt about being a bit short. I was expecting to be 50 hours because of codexian hype train,oh well.

And yeah little fishes is clearly slow at reading.

I'm suffering from constant anxiety of missing something important in text before me, I think it is some prestigious kind of mental retardation.

This reminds me of comrade Lenin's parable in Trotsky. Truly the devil at work.

Each new scene from this that you're showing me is even more impressive.

 

[Skene’s Gland]

I’m not reading jack shit rn. I’m trying to advance the clock so I can go over the gay bridge. Bought a book to kill in game time but it only moved like 2 hours. I’m going to take a break and download that shitty Streets of Rage Yakuza game and come back to DE when I feel like watching paint dry again.

It's overall a mixed bag from a historical point of view, but I do try to encourage people (in a passive manner akin to the Esopian sun) to watch it. Can be enjoyed both by someone like me and others ranging from Trotskyists to liberashkas.

I don't mean it as derogative,to each their own. Just stating the obvious. Everyone should play games the way the do find it the most enjoyable.

Trotsky

There is a good reason that he didn't cut it and Stalin took the power.

Trotskyists

Are retards and larpers. The drugaria Stalin did had the right idea about what to do with them.

[Lord_Potato]

Wow, what a stupid meme And I've seen some really retarded ones in my time...

Stalin as a national populist? He used to slaughter those. Besides, he was a Georgian pretending to be Russian.

The Soviet Union never fought a two front war. It barely stopped the Germans with economic help from USA and UK... And Stalin only dared to backstab the Japanese after the Germans were beaten.

And his symbol was not some retarded sword, but a proud, golden star on a field of red.

 

[Ol' Willy]

Stalin as a national populist?

His rhetoric in WW2 is exactly that. Stalin did a 180 reversal when he seen that people are not too willing to die for the vague communist ideals.

In before the thread is split again

I read very fast.

But do you understand what you are reading?

It is a selective reading that comes from a lot of experience. Once you have read/watched/listened to enough "cultural" entertainment you get to understand the people behind the work. Thus you could predict what they are going to say/write just buy seeing a few words of the sentence. That way you could skip the shlock and just focus on the good shit. I personally could watch 90min film in 30min and get it better than most people that watch the whole thing. Same with other shit,when i watch something i constantly skip forward to get past the gener

It's how I read your posts.
