I tried Disco Elysium, and I really appreciate everything it did/was trying to do, but I simply could not get over the pacing, long-winded conversations, and lack of guidance.
Don’t get me wrong, I love narrative-based games and open-ended exploration, but what amounts to turn-based game mechanics are too slow, and a complete absence of any obvious paths to take makes the game unapproachable.
No one said Disco Elysium so far? What’s wrong with you, Lemmy?
Literally got posted as I was complaining. Neat.
You were heard by the Great Lemmian Hivemind and your wish was bestowed upon you!
