If you can’t convince someone of something with words then you’ll have to find another way to get information out of them, like doing them a favour or finding irrefutable evidence. You can still attempt them and the percentage chance given to succeed does seem legitimate with lower chance ones sometimes succeeding and higher chance ones sometimes failing but you won’t be able to cover all the bases, generally speaking. Some of these choices will be hidden behind skill checks. Talking to people opens up choices of what to say, which will lead to more choices and more again. You walk around finding people to talk to and objects to inspect or pick up. Oh and he was clean, never touching alcohol or drugs again.Īlthough it has these RPG trappings, including experience which you can use to level up and find clothes that will increase and decrease certain stats, Disco Elysium plays more like a point and click game. He could look at a mess of footprints and figure out the number of people and their physical make up but couldn’t intimidate his way out of a paper bag. He was neither strong nor particularly good with people however. What transpired for me was an Adrian Monk or Dexter-like eye for detail which allowed my character to deduce situations with insane accuracy and have an encyclopedic knowledge of almost everything.

Within that you can be professional or less so. I started with an intelligent cop, not with any sort of plan but you can also choose from a more physical specimen, someone with a more psychological approach who is good with people or you can mix and match your own. You have to work within the rules of the game of course but this is a blank slate to mould as you desire. This opening allows the player to play the detective as they wish. Again, you don’t remember this but you’ll figure it out. There’s been a murder in the town of Martinaise and you’ve been sent to check it out with a partner from another precinct. You can’t remember that you’re a detective, or even who you are for that matter, but depending on the type of character you’ve created can start piecing things together slowly in a haze of regret. You start Disco Elysium as an incredibly hung over detective. What you need to know is that this is a fantastic game and although it was released in a rough state the patches have been coming thick and fast.

This has added new voice lines, more dialogue choices and more items to collect but that won’t mean too much to those who haven’t played it previously.
