Why doesn't anyone here talk about this anymore?
>>
What is there left to talk about? One of the best games ever made, if it isn't on your top 20 list you probably don't know what you're fucking talking about.
>>
Because it's old, you don't need to discuss things forever in an endless cycle of nostalgia Anon; we don't live on sigil.

Unironically this. DE is what P:T should have been. P:T was a victim of its time, being released when everyone still thought RPG absolutely has to have combat. If it had the balls to drop the combat and focus only on other aspects of RPGs (characters, skill checks) like DE did, it would have been even better.

Commies, nobody wants to play your propaganda dogshit. Stop comparing it to games.

Mindbroken.
>>
>>733703368
You know you're just digging yourself into a deeper hole, right? The combat in PS:T is weak, but it's literally integral to the basic premise of the game, which is that you can't die.

>>733703562
Your game is entirely about politics. It's a more scantily clad Fountainhead, it's completely pointless to engage you on the specifics because the only reason you shill it is because you honestly believe that the propaganda will work, just as long as you insist anyone calling it propaganda is lying.

Someone needs to remake Planescape with Disco Elysium mechancis. We are more than ready for non-combat RPGs.
>>
>>733701207
Its just old, there's not much new to be said.
It isn't being actively marketed so new players aren't showing up except by word of mouth from those who enjoyed it in the past and some social media hype about how good the writing might be.

I loved this game but its not a modern game. There is no modern equivalent either. I know some of you are already bitching at each other around Disco Elysium's flaccid little cock but no, DE doesn't actually come close, though it is in the neighborhood.

I'm not even sure new generations have the patience to read this much, though for what few among them might actually be literate may enjoy it the setting its designed around with the aesthetics of a high-fantasy cirque du soleil that speaks to millenials and gen-x more than it does to gen-z and on, so it may not engage them as easily. It just doesn't do it for them the way it does older nerds, sadly.

DE is ass what are you talking about? The only game that can be even remotely compared writing wise to PE:T is pathalogic series
>>
>>733704223
I was talking about gameplay, you cocksucking retard, you're the one who started talking about propaganda.
>>
>>733705164
No, you were shilling your propaganda slop. Anyone with 5 minutes of playtime in PST would know that the combat is a critical element of the game, you only used it as a comparison point because you wanted to talk about your commie garbage positively.
>>
>>733705164
There's literally no gameplay in DE it's a point and click adventure. The PE:T gameplay is perfectly serviceable

I did not care for it but it's a personal problem. For some reason I can't get into games with that kind of brown/grey aesthetic or grim vibe at all. fallout, pst, most recently tainted grail (etcetc), if there's some sort of wartorn plagued destitute post apocalyptic vibe I simply do not want to be in that world.
It's a shame because I feel like a philistine when it comes to this game specifically but oh well, I'd rather replay baldur's gate for the 100th time instead.

Everything that could be said has been said already

>>733701207
I played it like 18+ years ago, I don't have much to say.

Terrible remaster with black lines around characters.
Camera isn't centered on The Nameless One, like in Diablo. It isn't Diablo. Not a lot of land to explore, and when you do you run into boundries.

The sequel is turn based shit.

I think even the bait around this game is getting old. Yeah we all get it, if you grew up with it you liked it so a lot of it is nostalgia, etc etc. No one really bites too much or if they do its just to keep the thread alive.

Its a good game from another time, a lot of oldfags like it a lot, there's nothing else to say.

>>733701207
People probably started to read more than this 1 singular VN from their childhood and got embarrassed that they ever rated it so highly.

>>733702890
I was about to call this bad bait but everyone fell for it so clearly it can't be that bad
>>
>>733712650
>everyone
I ignored the Disco Elysium discussion though it does mean I'm mostly lurking.

I wonder if Disco Elysium threads can't really stand on their own so they have to hijack other threads to get discussion?
