I liked Disco Elysium, is Zero Parades for Dead Spies good? The commie bias in DE was tolerable if heavyhanded, is it better or worse to deal with in ZP?

and it ends as a literal fart joke with no other characters who believe in it being meant to be taken seriously. The creator's personal ideology wasn't exactly subtle, even if they DID accidentally make communism look like ineffectual hypocrisy.

I have not played the new version of Zero Parades that has a bunch more content, but the base game is unironically kino and it's a shame it didn't do as well as it should have.

I didn't think Disco Elysium had a commie bias at all, and I don't think Zero Parades has either. Both games go through efforts to show the flaws of communism. In Zero Parades case, you play a spy for the communists and every piece of lore about them makes them sound as bad as the other two big factions (Culturally dominating "rule of cool" fascist Mexicans with a touch of USA cultural relevance thrown in and European Union Jewish bankers)
