speaking of disco elysium, ive probably forgotten enough of it to try enjoying it again
got all my progress back from when the game broke, found a place to stop & quit, and now im feeling that familiar aversion to opening again. continuing the pattern of being generally well written but agonizing to interact with on every level, but worse cus the first playthrough in 2021 didn't have any catastrophic bugs
Oh yeah, Disco Elysium is the best game I've ever played, and at the same time it feels like it was put together with popsicle sticks and chewing gum. I've lost mountains of progress before because I forgot to save before entering a dialogue that just glitches out and never loads in, meaning I have to force quit the game.
I only started playing this year, so it's interesting to hear that the games gotten buggier since 2021. I've forgiven a lot of the jank cause it's clear that the devs never really got to finish the game, but if new updates are making it worse instead of better...
I'm also curious, when you say that it's agonizing to interact with on every level, do you mean that the bugs are spoiling the whole experience for you, or that you also weren't liking the core mechanics in the first place?
