am I the only person on earth that loves disco Elysium - Lemmy.world

Recommended it to my friends, they were unimpressed. It’s one of the best games I’ve ever played. Maybe I’m old, cynical, coming from a D&D slash text adventure zork background, or I’m just drunk disaffected struggling with life and relationships but The plot and dialogue choices are so intelligent. I constantly have to put down the steam deck in public because I’m laughing so hard. Anyone else played this game?

Heh, that’s me but in reverse.

Literally everyone I know is in love with the game. Have posters up and everything.

I bought it and started playing it, and even enjoyed it, but I just can’t make it past the first hour or two. I prefer games with a balance between exciting gameplay and rich narrative. I want to feel like I’m in the world, not just observing it and giving bad advice to one of its characters.

I think the game is super well done for what it is, though
