    That this shit had to happen to Disco Elysium is equally poetic and tragic. This went to be my instant favourite game of all time.

      That game is a work of art. I haven’t finished it, I stopped and moved on, yet it hold a very special place in my mind. That a game I want to go back to when I’ll have time for a quiet binge.

        Same, I need too much mental space for it, it’s so engaging that I want to actually have the room to enjoy it. When I do I love it, but when I don’t I kind of don’t want to disrespect it and my enjoyment of it with a half attentive state.

        Yeah, the first boss fight. Give it another shot and fall for the wonderful game forever.

    Don’t you ever think that the reason this games get canceled is because they aren’t good? When stuff doesn’t get canceled we get Redfall likes

        ZA/UM leadership can eat donkey dicks, and if I had Musk/Bezos money I would hire every single dev that got laid off from there and just let them make games till the heat death of the universe.

        But I’m a povo removed, so best I can offer is a free drink at the bar and a handjob in the back alley.

        You’d think the same would have happened to the E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy devs, but they’re all still coolsies with each other.

      If you are not familiar with the history of this game, it’s understandable to be skeptical. Obviously in most cases that would be a reasonable assumption. But in this specific case, it being cancelled out of spite actually makes way more sense than it being cancelled because it wouldn’t have been financially viable.

      Well, in this case there is a ALOT of background saying that this probably not the case. It is messed up.
