    The first time Scrat looked directly into the camera and intoned “lets get nutty” in a quivering bass, I was disconcerted, but by the sixth time I was really engulfed in the developer’s vision.

    Does Agent Dale Cooper count as a wizard? He uses ritual magic in his investigations, and is embroiled in other sorts of mysticism as well.

    If you count him, then yes, you can probably play a wizard.

    I hope that Disco Elysium allows roleplaying Francis York Morgan.

    Wouldn't that be cool, Zach?

    I've seen some screenshots, and yes, you can definitely try and throw your spirit energy at enemies. Don't know how well it'll work, but you can try it.

    Instead of the Joker movie it's going to end up being the Goose game that unleashes a wave of bad behavior in society. Honking at kids, throwing peoples rakes in lakes, knocking over gym equipment....

    what is disco elysium

    can you be a wizard

    so the serious answer is, i have no idea. the game takes place in not-our-world but idk if it's a fantasy world explicitly. with magic powers and stuff, or not.

    right now I have two quests in my journal and they involve finding the shoe i lost in the previous night's bender and singing karaoke

    my first character died in the start screen by reaching up to grab his necktie from the ceiling fan, failing the skill check, and having a heart attack

    One of your skills you can put points into in Disco Elysium is "Inland Empire" which is like your imagination, speculation and, at higher levels, your ghost detective meter.

    Because all skills in Disco have minds of their own, in your mind, and chime in in conversations and encourage you to do what they say. And at higher levels, they get MORE. So high level Inland Empire means you're seeing spooks and creepy, weird shit around every corner. Or if you have a high Authority, you'll be able to dominate in conversations...but have quite a bit of a fascist streak. Encyclopedia will give you lots of trivia and lore about everything but the higher you crank it, the more you get and the harder it'll be to sort between the chaff and the wheat.

    I mean you're constantly having conversations with yourself.

    Also I played UNDERRAIL for like 30 minutes; I couldn't suss out how to reload or kill those robots in the beginning. I'll get back to it but boy was it wearing it's cRPG Badge with pride.

    Oct 15 - Morels: THE HUNT (First Person, Exploration, Hunting, Non-violent, Mushrooms)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kYaKHLAULw
    The deadliest prey is not bear, nor boar, nor even bloke; it’s mushroom. Lurking in the leaf litter, the wrong fungus can lure you in with fairytale fanciness then kill you stone dead. Let’s salute the true brave hunters, the people heading into the virtual woods to face down mushrooms in Morels: The Hunt. Released today, it resembles your traditional hunting games like theHunter in that you roam around open-world wilderness filled, look at animals, unlock high-tech gear, and come home with a tasty dinner. Except you’re hunting mushrooms, and shoot only photographs. Having often wished pretty hunting games had strolling modes, I’m game.

    Larry Loni(c?)k would be proud

    Underrail is one of the most mechanically satisfying RPGs I've ever played. It's also hard as balls.

    It's a game that I know I won't be playing for a bit, so I'm glad that it's the sort of game that leads to delightful out of context posts about it.

    Welp, after getting an email from GOG about the bundle bonus if I purchased Disco Elysium, followed by browsing the store page, followed by looking at some YouTube videos of the first 20-odd minutes of gameplay, followed by reading some of the posts on here....

    Friends were playing PUBG in discord. I quit nearly a year ago. But discord's new streaming option let me watch them as they got a chicken dinner and had a blast. Man i miss PUBG. Next round they bridge boi Novo, wreck a few squads and get to top 10 only to be instant headshotted by a Chinese hacker carrying his squad to a 90% win rate. Ahhh, PUBG, how i hate you.

    The character creator is more agonizing than I thought in Disco Elysium. . .especially since this is a hardcore roleplaying game where I don't think you're going to be necessarily min-maxing things? I think I want good mind and social skills while definitely tuned to their senses. . .but a weakling physically.

    Not sure what character in literature that mimics (can't really do Sherlock Holmes here since - at least Cumberbatch and Lee Miller's versions - he's good at all four).

    EDIT: Holy frijoles - you can do a Deprived run (1's in everything). You could do a total Bullock (from Batman TAS) run with a souped up meathead cop that breaks bones and gets evidence later.
