“go for it”

It’s common enough where someone in this thread had the same issue. I’m glad you had a good time but I’m not gonna sink more hours in just to have runs ruined from being unlucky.

I used the recommended stat spread. I did not pass a single check for the entire time I played I. I know how these games work mechanically. The reason I’m highlighting the fact that I failed these checks without any of my own input is because if there was some sort of interactable gameplay element, then having failed these checks would feel fair as opposed to arbitrary.

Honestly I didn’t vibe with the main character, and the game not letting me leave my own impression on him, in even the smallest way (putting on a tie for example,) didn’t make me invested in them. I got to a point where my only option was to wait hours of in-game time before I could progress further. At that point, having not been able to progress, not had an engaging gameplay element to interact with and not being invested in the character I’m playing as; why should I have continued?

I picked the default recommended character. How was I supposed to know the optimal build to complete the first objective on my first run. Why should I even assume that the recommended characters are incapable of doing things? I’m fine with rpg mechanics, the problem I had was I tried to do the first objective 3 different ways, failed all three times due to no fault of my own and then got progress locked. The game actually said “you have to wait 6 hours before you can try again.”

Genuinely what is the point of continuing after that. I wasn’t able to do anything and didn’t find the gameplay satisfying up to that point. The next thing to do was go afk and wait it out. I don’t want to do that, so why should I keep playing.

I got progressed locked during the first objective. I stopped playing the game because the game literally told me “you failed too many times now you just gotta wait it out and try again” and I didn’t even get a chance to not fail! Dice rolling gameplay.

I heard the game offered freedom to play the game however you’d like to without being railroaded into taking a specific path. I then played the game and wasn’t able to do anything. I like RPG’s, usually they let you do things.

It’s an anime with a “press a to view next scene” feature

Sure, but how about how good you are is determined not by arbitrarily stats but by how good you are. Also having a stat spread that makes you literally incapable of doing the very first tasks the game gives you is not my idea of good design.

Nat 1’s only

I didn’t mind the writing. Thought the hyper stylised nature of it clashed with the “you can’t do anything and always fail” type gameplay though.

In terms of funness and having agency. I tired to put a tie on and failed a rng check for that. Then I tried to get a guy out of a tree and failed a rng check for that. And then the game said “sniff bath salts and you won’t vomit when getting the guy out of the tree.” So I went and scoured the area for bath salts for like 15mins, finally got them. Then went back to get the guy out of the tree and failed anyway because it doesn’t always work. Not to worry though. I just have to wait another 6hrs before I can try again to presumably fail again.

Believe it or not I actually like to make decisions and deal with the consequences of those decisions rather than just fail arbitrarily at objectives the game tells me I should be doing.

Disco Elysium was aesthetically pleasing and I loved the vibes but the game sucked.

Persona 5 and disco Elysium.

Gameplay akin to pulling your own teeth out but you don’t even get to choose which tooth you want to pull

Something tells me the current US administration is crazy enough to refuse an eviction. And if they were to do that denmark has 0 ability to forcefully remove the US and would effectively be ceding sovereignty of the bases in operation there if not all of Greenland.
