I had a massive boner every single time Kim talked. You won't regret it.

The writing, art, voice acting and music from Disco Elysium are absolutely amazing. Big fan of Aleksander Rostov's expressionist and surrealist artworks and Sea Power's soundtracks. Be ready to listen to Lenval Brown's buttery smooth voice as the narrator for 90% of the game as well as Jullian Champenois' outstanding performance as Kim.

The whole skill mechanic is pretty refreshing due to its unique concept of developing your character's personality through his abilities and thoughts, affecting the outcomes in certain situations.
The amount of attention to detail is mind-boggling and the game has surprisingly a lot of replay value. There is so much to do, many possibilities and an abundance of dialogue that enriches the plot and depth of its characters and environments.

If none of these points have convinced you to experience Disco Elysium, then I'm just letting you know that you can :
  • Pet a mailbox
  • Become a communist, fascist and others
  • Punch French people (including a kid)
  • Give drugs to a kid
  • Beg for money
  • Make yourself miserable
  • Put a gun into your mouth in public
  • Sing karaoke
  • Discuss about cryptozoology for hours
  • Constantly have an existential crisis
  • Be a good boy for Kim
  • Or be racist towards Kim and feel like ♥♥♥♥ for doing so

And these are only a few of the stuff that you can do.

My only complaint :
You sadly can't make Harry kiss nor ♥♥♥♥ Kim (unless you're in Collage Mode).

In summary, this game is an absolute piece of art. Please, be an aesthete, appreciate and enjoy it at your own pace.
