Yeah, the TV rights for Disco Elysium could probably have a high Net Worth, so to speak, while also being completely unfilmable due to the child drug use, jackets, Measurehead, etc.

If they actually make a TV show it should not cover the events of the game at all, instead just tell a different story set in the city of Revachol focusing on different people, with guest appearances from Harry and/or Kim Like, I dunno, the square bullet hole murderer

It's gonna be a show about a lovable ginger child who decides he wants to be a police officer, but his best friend is concerned about his chosen path.

It actually will be a straight adaptation of the main plot of the game, but every episode, Harry will be played by a different actor, wear a different costume, have solved different parts of the case in different ways, have a different relationship with Kim, and use a different name.

It's gonna be like that Inside-Out Pixar movie, starring all of Harry's skills, but crucially there is never enough context given to understand what's happing outside of Harry's brain. Just twenty-two minutes episodes of a man's fractured psyche arguing with itself.

It'll be tonally indistinguishable from Happy! I bet it'll even have Patton Oswalt.

repiv posted:pretty telling that za/um hasn't said a word about the TV adaptation, as far as i can tell Why would they have to say anything again? They already did that when they sold the TV rights almost 2 years ago to a production company, and it was the production company that decided to team up with Amazon, not ZA/UM. But I get it, it's not something you can make a hot take or silly joke out of. midnight lasagna posted:Mr. Bezos is helping me fund my show.

I've flipped on the TV show and now want it to be a big success and for the store splash screen and title screen to get the paperback-tie-in treatment and get replaced with a medium shot of Channing Tatum and Lance Reddick as Harry and Kim looking intensely into the camera.

Nessus posted:Boy, casting Kim would be an adventure, wouldn't it. When I played the game for the first time and was sorting through who the characters reminded me of, I figured "Joel de la Fuente with thinner hair" for Kim. Might have been since I had just watched Man in the High Castle S1 before playing, though.

Has anybody played on a switch and run into a bug that makes the game stay on a black main menu screen, and can't continue? Already tried reinstalling. Google shows people reporting a similar issue from late last year but no solution that I could find.

I decided to redownload and start playing yet again and I notice that the Switch no longer sounds like an allergy-season pug while the game runs and also there's been only one major glitch and zero crashes. I added a memory card, so maybe that's the difference.

There was a huge patch a few weeks back, notice how the loading times no longer make you want to fling yourself out a window.

I know I've probably said this before, but replaying this game and I just really love how every political ideology you can be, rather than being this pristine thing, is so personally died with Harry's broken view of the world. You don't have to hate women (at least not the way Harry does) and think they all ride the cock carousel to be a fascist, for example - but Harry does to be a fascist, because there's no way that worldview plus his experience results in any other outcome. Every political ideology is ultimately something he grasps onto as a life raft to make sense of a senseless life, and every expression of those ideologies is still very uniquely him. And he's an utter mess at each of them, especially at being an ultraliberal. So of course you can be all four at once, because for Harry's poor broken mind its quite possibly "any port in a storm". It's all the fault of the women and foreigners (because his ex left him for a foreigner)! He and his compatriots are all members of the working class leading a revolution that is doomed to failure and longing for something that could have been! (because his relationship with her could have been a utopia if only he had found a way to make it work, and he wants to go back to it even though he knows he can't, that life has moved on) I imagine there's two equally obvious examples for ultraliberal and moralist but I can't quite think of them right now.
