Sounds like it has a better overall theme about policing and shit than the first season arguably does, where bullshit crooked bureaucracy prevent the REAL cops from doing the REAL work and taking down the REAL bad guys and winning back affection from the family they alienated by being violent cheating patriarchs.

Binge read A Sacred and Terrible Air yesterday and man, that was a great book but also Robert Kurvitz was out of his goddamn mind thinking that it would be successful as a debut physical novel, theres so little comprehensible if you're not already understanding of the Elysium universe and history.

Favorite part is when Ignus Nilsen is imperfectly erased from history by counterrevolutionary regimes until he becomes a literal spectre of communism, its so tragicomic that it causes the edgiest teenager in the world to adopt him as an imaginary friend. Also very funny that "women are bourgeoise" was a bit that ZA/UM loved so much that they just took it straight from the book and put it in DE.

This game is great but also kind of sucks ass in a really nostalgic kind of way.

My dad owned a SNES and a copy of this that he left at my grandparents so him or me could play it whenever we were visiting, and I could never get past the first hub zone until I was like 17 and looked up a walkthrough. All my childhood I just grinded the first hub area over and over.

Also wanna highlight this part of the quote right after.

They also said “I don’t think women were treated the same and that their work wasn’t as valued.”

Big fucking shock, great job of that shitass documentary to let the remaining writers specifically try and smear Helen Hindpere as incompetent and lazy, while not questioning them in the slightest about the claims from Helen as well as producer Yuan Zhang-Taal(only two women in the documentary btw) who say that Kaur Kender and Tonis Haavel both verbally abused Helen as well as also ran a campaign of attempting to undermine her credibility towards her coworkers.

Was it already known that the Disco Elysium sequel had been canned back in 2022?

Aside from that, I dont know what the fuck they are up to if they have a third Disco Elysium "IP" related project in the works now, after cancelling an actual sequel plus an expansion, whats left, a card game?

During the height of the Ukraine war it was a widespread liberal belief that Russians are a separate race from Ukrainians because Ukranians are pure and honest farmer stock while Russians are permanently tainted by nomadic asians almost 1000 years ago.

And that's not to speak of just the widespread acceptance of zionist narratives about an eternal unbroken connection to the soil of israel which makes any suggestion of decolonization spiritually unacceptable.

Unironically these kinds of shows should be required to show off basic principles of the area they are concerned with, like just basic physics shit for how construction is supposed to work.

Doesn't need to be edutainment since kids are good at picking up on just how stuff is portrayed to work, but that means stuff like this is less than worthless as anything but pure entertainment profits.
