Did you get the part that implies that Cunoesse murdered a child?

The phrase "down-on-its-luck bookstore" in that article suddenly made me think that Bernard Black from Black Books would be a fantastic character for the Disco Elysium setting.

Is there something to explore in the sewage vent in front of the bookstore? I get the MO thought prompt of “something is down there” but I haven’t figured out how to follow up or if it’s just a stray thought

It’s a pretty high motorics check so it doesn’t usually appear until later in the game. There is a fair bit to explore behind that curtain though, could be you missed something.

No, I mean the MO thoughts are triggered by skill checks, so some don’t appear until you boost the skills later on. Unless... there IS a MO check in there? Maybe it’s the ghost

It requires high Perception specifically, to get a yellow orb at the grates and get the "Something is down there/smells like a potato cellar" message when you click on it. More perception you have, the more yellow orbs you can click on in the world. Also combos with the thoughts you can get from Joyce with each orb you click no matter the color giving money/exp.

After several months of keeping this game in the back of my mind, I noticed it was on sale and decided to take the plunge. I'm running a high Motorics and Intellect build, so I basically crumple at the slightest sign of physical or emotional stress. The highlight of my run so far has been shooting down the body, doing an Aces Low with Kim, and rubbing it in the Cunos' faces.

After reading countless glowing reviews and watching countless video singing this games praises i finally grabbed it while it was on sale....i didn't make it more than 10 minutes. The game did not match anything i had heard about it and i found it to be unbelievably pretentious and weird for the sake of being weird. It had that...excessively Japanese style to it that made it way too weird to immerse myself in and i immediately lost all interest and requested a refund.

If you find that poo poo weird and incomprehensible just ignore it and start doing detective work and be a boring cop. Ya square. I went Art Cop that XP bonus is huge and it's really fun.

I think alot of VNs have long self-referential segments where the character talks within their own head, and Disco Elysium is all about that poo poo.

The studios activities surrounding the game could be described pretentious, with the endless Steam updates about indie developer conventions and awards and the merchandise. The painted Gigeresque art pieces also do nothing for me, but it's one of the very very few games to keep me engaged and see it through 40h to the end in.. about a decade now soo.

I just googled that quote and it might be the real deal. That's good, because I think we all need to know what too Japanese means. Like... Haruki Murakami Japanese, or "Is It Wrong to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon" Japanese? What hentai game is most like this and is there an English translation anywhere?

art project games like KRZ exist outside of the gaze of God and thus are condemned to chaos at best, such is the way of things NitW still counts because it is a warning shot across the bow of elite coastal congregations about the encroaching threat of nega-Maoism
