    Absolute masterpiece of PC RPG game. Best CRPG I have played in years. The hand drawn graphics are beautiful.

But the best thing about this game is it let's you roleplay any way you want without punishing you. Wanna be a drunken, drug addicted cop who has completely given up on life, you can do that. Or maybe you wanna play as a down on his luck recovering addict who is looking to redeem himself. The game will accommodate whatever role you want to play.

    If talk about graphics are not so good also the response time is hard to understand sometimes and talk about audio in the background is pretty much good , difficulty inceasing at different types of levels like if the roleplay you want to change take more time versus refilling the bullets in gun.

    GAMEPLAY
    The gameplay remains exactly what you know and love but the graphics and move sets have been updated for current consoles. This game has some similarities to Hades, they are comparable but they are still very different. This game is deeper, there's a parry button, stamina bar, and all of it worked so well and it's addicting as hell.
    The biggest grudge I have with this game is the bosses and weapons variety. There isn't really much weapons that really differentiate from 1 another but it is still really good to play. The bosses are pretty easy in Tier 1 but on Tier 2 it really starts to get hard. Some punishments you get (corruption) isn't exactly all bad and some just does wonders for the player but I think that was intentional. But that's pretty much the only thing I would call a negative this game has.

    Truly an amazing game for the correct gamer.    … Expand

    Before I talk about this game I just wanna say that I have never been a rogue like fan. The last rogue like game that I really enjoyed was Hades and Curse of the Dead Gods is definitely in the same league or maybe higher.

    STORY This game has no story so don't be stupid and look for one. This game is just fun so leave the story.

    Might be hard to get into for some people but the clever writing and unique atmosphere makes it easily one of the best and most clever video games ever created. Be careful playing, it contains some really heavy themes.

    The worst thing about this game is it's 30 hours long instead of 100. For me, this is a masterpiece. One of the best games ever made. Everything in this game is special. It's inspiring, it's touching, it's real man. This is storytelling at it's finest. This game

    I don't often give anything at 10/10, but Disco Elysium is a masterpiece. Raw Existential Dread.

    The idea of this - it's a good interesting story with great dialogs and brilliant characters. I love it

    An overall excellent game, full of personality and with a very deep story and characters. It may very well be the best game I've ever played, and that's saying a lot. The protagonist is just perfect for the role he's given, his humor and oddities are some of the things that make him so memorable.

    The writing, the story, the world building and the voice acting in this game are just sublime - it sets a completely new standard for video games, in my opinion. The inner dialogue and subconsciousness constantly chattering away and giving you good or bad advice based on your stats are a thing of beauty. Very original, and a joy to explore. All the characters in the game are interesting

    This game was like living in a novel collaboratively written by Dostoevsky and George Orwell, if they were both alive in the late 70's and doing a whole bunch of coke with Soul Train blaring in the background.

    Not a lot of things are like that.

    Much appreciated.

    Personally, my favorite video game (and that I haven't played a few). Its world is complex, with interesting characters and a good plot. Quite interesting and memorable, worth a try even if you don't like RPGs or games with more text than dialogue. There are parts where the text is overwhelming, yes, but it's still a game that holds a big place in my heart.

I say this because in order to fully appreciate the experience on offer, you must allow yourself to get immersed. Mind you, the games narrator Lenval Brown, makes this an easy task as he delivers a captivating performance from start to finish. So much so, that it would be rude to skip any of games dialogue.

    The dialogue is smart and well-written, rewarding those that engage with it fully and take the time to listen. Personally, I would have preferred a portion of the games main story beats to take a slightly different path, and found some dialogue sections feeling a bit convoluted, however this does not take away from the overall experience of the game.

    I must admit that seeing the end credits of a game has become somewhat of a rare occurrence these days, with many games feeling bloated and uninspired, however Disco Elysium kept my attention throughout, all the way to the end.    … Expand

    This game is the best game I have ever played. I didn't realise video games could be like this. It was godly.
    If you like story/character/heavy questions about the shape of society and the world at large then you should try it.
    Sense of humour is required.

    Traversing the mind of your character is as much a plot as the case you’re trying to solve, and once you’re immersed into the world of Revachol, you’ll be struggling to leave.

    Disco Elysium – The Final Cut is something rare. It’s a re-issued version of an already-beloved game, that manages to eclipse the source material through clever and thoughtful additions that maximise one of the game’s most beautiful assets: its prose. But more than that, it’s the only CRPG that can truly claim to emulate the tabletop experience—not through adherence to statistics or rules or character sheets, but through the simple act of asking questions, and thoughtfully incorporating the answers.

    Disco Elysium has a distinctive quality to its narrative, whether it's the interesting history of its world, or the mysteries surrounding the investigation, not to mention the depth and uniqueness of the many characters. It's one of the greatest story-driven experiences we've ever seen.
