Disco Elysium is one of my favorite games of all time! The art reminded me of old Sandman covers so I wanted to check it out from that alone. What I got was unbelievably more. One of my favorite fictional worlds and with one of the best queer characters in any piece of media. Where are you at right now? I know that's a very tenuous question considering how the story is so personalized.

I'm sorry about your job, though. Hope you fall back on your feet soon enough or have some form of fallback. Covid has helped here in the states, which is awful to think about, but it really forced peoples hands to actually support people in need for once.

Thanks friend!

To clarify, it was an annual contract as a college teacher for web development. The industry itself is doing fine, but covid has resulted in dwindling student application so when it came time to renew my contract, they just... didn't. I'm in a better spot than most people, so mostly it's just given me time this month to stretch and breathe out (and make gifs for shitposts, it turns out).

And yes! Disco Elysium rules. The writing is nothing short of astonishing. I would die for Kim without a second thought.

I've beaten it and somehow stumbled onto what I guess would be the best ending. I've just started a second playthrough, though, knowing me, I'll just make all the same decisions so long as Kim is happy.

I've never been able to do a full playthrough of bad options because of Kim, especially now that there's full VA. All of the VA is good, but his is just... Piercing. I tried it recently, and the venom in his voice was too much. Even on things that would get a good reaction on a previous playthrough would lead to something dismissive. I couldn't do it.

I need to get around to doing the moralist vision quest as I've heard it's a massive lore dump and fairly connected to what happens at the church.
