The Tyranny of Thumbs 5 Player Characters

While we take our sweet time with Disco, enjoy a legendary episode from our archives in preparation for Senua's Sacrifice 2.
 
I'll leave you with a quote that's been resonating with me from Disco Elysium this week as we've been digging into the main story more...
 
But you would still prefer if we didn't take her away?
 
That's right, if we didn't take care of the people who end up here, this place would just be a couple of ruins and some cargo containers

This week, after some light hiatus in our actual real lives, we dive back into Disco Elysium. Where we both enjoy the game and discuss how like... you know... how hard it is to pick up a game like this after putting it down.

Be sure to check out Instagram because Elena only knows one type of content and that's pure🔥!  (Also she gives more real-time updates on how much we are throwing the schedule)
 
Tentative Schedule:
We got a plan from helpful folks over at the Disco Elysium subreddit... and it's gone. That's to say, we've had to make small adjustments for life reasons but we are marching forward... 
Week 1: Play days 1
Week 2: Play until you get into the next landmass and meet some characters. A nice taster.
Week 3: Some went off into sidequests, some yolo'ed the main story. But one thing is for sure, the divergence is real in this section.
Week 4: It's time to dive into the story if you have been avoiding it. It's time.
Week 5: ????
 
General tips that the community wanted to share as we dive in:
Always keep one skill point on hand to unlock white checks at all times, otherwise you can softlock yourself accidentally.
Make sure you're able to pay for your room on Day 2 with 20 réal or you will be softlocked.
Don't look up spoilers and embrace failed checks!

We've never re-released an episode before, be gentle. McCoy was afraid but James was fearless.
 
We'll be back for more Disco Elysium next week and with more exciting news on those Insulindian Phasmids

Forgive, we started off this episode REALLY slowly (we were all exhausted from daylight savings and epic halo this weekend) but we got there in the end boys.
 
This is a game that has been bubbling behind the surface for a lot of us and it's time to finally put it out and give it its praise.
