I haven't given up on it yet, but I'm having a hard time getting into Disco Elysium. Haven't gotten past the opening yet, but taking multiple pages of text and clicks to communicate "you're hung over and amnesiac and feel like shit" left a poor first impression on me.
I having trouble getting into most games nowadays, tried Disco Elysium for like a hour and haven't gotten back around to it. Just bought Dead Cells however and it's been taking up most of my free time the past week.
I just want to read it as a book, I don't want to click so much and read so much while sitting at a computer. Give me the communist path as a book and I'd actually finish it.
I kinda liked it, but I'm never in the mood for it. I think I just don't care about story in videogames. I play vidya for fun mechanics and I read books to consume thoughtful stories. For the same reason I can't get into Red Dead Redemption 2. The basic gameplay loop for Rockstar games sucks, I don't want to play an hour of horse riding and auto-aim shooting for this story that everyone preaches about.
You might as well watch the cutscenes on YouTube in that case, although I think spending 80 hours as Arthur Morgan is a pretty major crutch for emotionally connecting to the story.

:lt-kitsuragi: read the dialogue, it's so poetic! role play a type of cop! your conversation choices matter!
:lt-dbyf-dubois: clicking through every possible dialogue tree in a row, dismissing anything that doesn't advance the story, also ACAB

Exactly, it won't hit the same just watching all the cutscenes. I'm fine with not knowing this sad cowboy story.
