The best dialogue I remember was: Protag: Don't you have a bunch of voices in your head telling you different things? Kim: No...? Conceptualization: His conceptualization must not be very high...

This game helped me quit drinking. The portrait of what was going to happen to myself if I kept it up was too real lol.

55:08 "Kim is godlike, your savior" glad to see this get mentioned in an analysis video. The deification of characters Harry loves (let's face it, he loves Kim. a lot) is such an extremely important theme in the game.

This was the game I played when my second child was born. I would let her sleep on my chest those first few weeks of her life, this is the game that kept me awake to make sure she was alright. This will always be a top five game for me. Thanks for the retrospective.

If you liked Disco Elysium, I’d recommend another decision-making RPG that came out a few days ago called Roadwarden. Really well put together game.

I love the creepy spider man in the old church. The game does a good job of being mostly grounded in a believable reality while rarely sprinkling in supernatural elements.

As much as I love your videos I gotta skip this one as I don't want to spoil the game for myself, so just pretend I'm here in spirit. Yea, that's it. I'm a spooky ghost who is briefly leaving a comment and an upvote to help your engagement. Now I go poof.

Ohh shit son. That's tight af. This game brought me a great many laughs, and a great many tears as well. Top 5 no doubt. You're growing into a fine man, kiddo.

This is the best written game I've ever played. Also a correction: from my understanding, time only passes when your are talking. Walking or standing around doesn't pass time.

Great video. I feel like I resonate with Shivers the most. My first run was truly revelatory - I was finally able to describe the feeling I got during my midnight strolls in the post communist, post industrial city I live in now (and the one I grew up in and eventually left). It was Shivers, my subconscious, physical connection with the city

This is one of my favorite games in recent memory. I LOOOOOOVE the soundtrack too. It's seriously one of the best ever

Just last night I found myself thinking - boy, I can't wait for YourFavouriteSon to upload again, and here we are! And with a retrospective of one of my favourite games of recent times no less!

Hey Son, great video as always. I remember finding and playing this during a dark rut, and while the story of Harrier Du Bois is soul crushing it was also wonderful being able to honestly try to get his life together, even if what we can do as him would only be the first steps towards that happier life for him. Keep up the great work!

I dont normally do this but I went and played this before watching your essay AND came back to watch it. Had to find it though.

son, you and this video look so great. loving the consistent upgrades in quality and (of course) what you have to say about one of my favorite games ever

I just subbed to you yesterday and you hit me with a longform vid about one of my favorite games of 2021? Nice timing. This was such a good game. Probably one of the first I replayed immediately after because of the alternate routes you could take. Reminded me of those choose your own adventure books I read as a kid.

Possibly the best game made story-wise in a very long time. I loved the game the entire way, it was so good. The gameplay was fun, and the dialogue was so interesting that I never got tired of it. There is so much in the game to learn and be interested in.

You were right, this was a surprise. A really fun surprise.

Thank you for that Video. This Game is my absolute favourit. It has so much brilliant writing in it. So much crazy, funny and sad moments. Every true roleplayer needs to try this, at least. Thank you again for your effort.

A fine video for a great game, son. I don't think I've played a game that left me thinking and feeling as much in many years. Truly a magnificent title, which blends absurdity and despair together in a way that I've never seen before. I'm not one for hype, but to say that I will be very interested in their next game is a given.

This was really really good! I've heard great things about Disco Elysium for a long time now, and this laid everything out, especially the worldbuilding and lore, in a very easy to understand way. Thanks, Son!

To see you making a video of one of the best games ever after watching and re-watching your Legacy of Kain video - which genuinely got me interested in the game series - brings joy to my heart, Son.

Just finished Disco Elysium and now I can finally watch this retrospective!

Yesss! Only finished this two weeks ago, shot straight into my top five all time favourites. Saving this to watch on the flight home later 🤙

Glad to see you covering this one, son. Well done!

I’ve listened to a handful of long form retrospectives on this game after completing it myself and I can easily say that this is the best, most comprehensive video. Good job, son. - dad

I'm so excited for your take on this mind bending, psychedelic, thought provoking, trip of a game.

Something I would love for you to cover in the future is a game that it's just like one. A top down, turn based, RPGs that I absolutely hate... But one game in the 37 years of my existence has made me love them and that's wasteland 3.

I had seen this game before and heard amazing things but didn't think it was for me, so I kept watching past the spoiler warning. Not long past that, you convinced me, I want to give it a try for myself so thank you for that. Your commentaries are so insightful and you really have a way with describing the world and lore of every game you play.

A little bit of extra information about the Pale, for those who are curious: Although most people believe that the Pale couldn't be traversed before the invention of pale latitude compressors, there were people, doing it, by land. The boiaderos (cowboys) were one of those who knew how to do it. The equivalent of Ancient Greeks (I can't remember the name given to them in the game) knew how to navigate it as well. It's also described as an accumulation of memories and events.

Would love to see you make a series of videos on the Dishonored games. But honestly your content is great whatever game you choose to tell us about. You are indeed my favorite son

I am so thankful for playing this game. Its made a massve impact on how I view story games these days and the themes in them. And Im so glad you brought up that this game is like a litmus test for the player. In the choices, political affiliations, skills, etc. Ive gotten multiple friends to play it and it still causes discussions and arguments about the world. I think ive played through it about 5 times. Cant wait for another

This was an odd gaming experience for me for many reasons... the top of the list, or at least the moment that sticks out most clearly for me was when Harrier wanted blow, and I did a bump of my own while rejecting his, as he's a better man than that. Stuck with me, and it's not even a designed feature... this game is too good. *edit... I'd wager that's a ruminating idea still unlocking in my thought cabinet.. and that was over a year ago.

Masterpiece of a game and an excellent video, son. Well done! Appreciated.

This game is amazing, and I feel like you really did it justice. These retrospectives you do are awesome!

Gosh darn it son. I was trying to wait until I got back to work to listen to this... but.. I just HAD to watch this one. Definitely a top 5 crpg and wish there were more like it. Proud of you for this video. Bye kiddo make today a good one.

Have just finished my third walkthrough of this game overall and the first one of the extended cut. Really happy to see you reviewing this masterpiece, son, keep up the good work!

what a champ! thanks for the quality content as always :)

Man, I haven't seen your review yet, but I was never able to describe the genius of this game. I'm not into art, I don't feel anything watching a painting or a statue, but playing this game I was feeling the touch of art so deep I was flabbergasted. Masterpiece, can't pick another word Update: I've watched a bit, the first "oh, I get it now" moment was when you've said it was an art group who created this game, the second - when you've said about Russian books(I am a Russian, so this may be a reason why the themes of this game were so close to me) Update 2: Cuno is pure gold period

Disco is also available on Switch. That's where I played it and I found it super fun. "No one wants to fuckin read." I ended up playing it by mostly reading. Yeah, Final was the version on switch but I spend a lot of time with the sound off on my switch because I like to go with my own ambient background music when playing handheld most of the time. But the voice acting is fantastic so I found myself turning on that sound for a lot of the major story stuff. Also, whoop! You got a sponsor! Nice. Movin on up, Son!

Now I need to complete this game, I've always gotten half way into day 2 stopping for the day, and forgetting to come back to it.

Great video! Incredibly fantastic game! One of the best RPG's I've ever played with the best dialogue tree I've ever played. I totally missed the whole lore behind the church anomaly on my 1st playthrough but it's the most fascinating part of the game IMO. Make sure you don't miss it!

welp I guess I am going to replaying Disco Elysium again, thanks son. I am a purple/blue build addict, it's so hard for me to play a stupid cop or an indifferent one

Cuno doesn't fucking care, but me and my friends are pleasantly surprised to see this upload. Disco Elysium found me at a time when I was in a spiral similar to Harry's and it changed my life.

Your uploads make my day. Thanks for all your hard work.

Hey son, just want to let you know, I Decided to stop this video and take your recommendation to play the game. I’ll return soon to finish. Love every video of yours that I’ve seen.

So....uh... When I found this video this morning, because it got buried with all of the other videos that arrive while I'm at work on Sunday....I squealed. I haven't played the game myself(poor guy with a terrible computer), but I've watched enough content on how amazing the game is that I know that I will love it, even with being spoiled, because the gameplay is never the same between runs, and I'm the type of guy who will do multiple playthroughs just to see what happens if I do/say different things...

Son, wish this had more attention on it. Very well made as usual and thoroughly enjoyed!

Wow youtube notifications are trash. I completely missed this upload. Disco Elysium is such a magnificent game. I actually discovered it last year when they released the director's cut with voice overs. It gives it so much more depth. I will enjoy watching this tonight, thank you son.

I took your advice, and here I am, back after a year to watch this video. I am so glad I went in blind this was a magical journey

I'm so excited to listen. I love this game. And loved your silent hill series!

Played it before the full final release version was updated, might have to install it again

Anyone who hasn’t played this game and wants to should know that as of right now it’s 14 dollars on steam because of a sale

When you are describing the pysical world of Disco, I cant help but think of the One Piece world, with all its islands, and vast seas that contain hidden threats and creatures (Sea Kings and whatnot)

Accidentally finished the 1st game ever after 32hours, jumped right back. So good.

Thanks for the video coherent Tim Rogers!

Well damn 😮 this was a good video man. Keep up the good work 🦾🤳💅✨🔥

excellent video for an excellent game, was great to hear your adventure, iirc I also became the sorry cop, I might've missed it but did you also do a sober run?

Not a big important thing, but felt compelled to correct something small: Roy did not clean up piles of bodies after the revolution. The "pile" he talks about having cleaned up was the aftermath of a failed nuclear reactor, which is why he takes a radiation sickness drug with psychedelic side effects.

Makes me mad that developers got screwed over. Really ironic, considering that they were critiquing capitalism, and then the big company to took over their work.

ENCYCLOPEDIA: Your mangled brain would like you to know there is a boxer called Contact Mike. YOU: Yeah? Any news on my wife's name? How about my mother? ENCYCLOPEDIA: Nope.

This game is about pain and beeing stuck in the past, while the present is trying to break in with a sledgehammer.

May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back. May the son shine warm upon your place, The rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

After finishing the game, I can confidently say.....everyone needs a Cuno in their life. Cuno is Best Boy. Is Cuno will run the Night City.

This had me hooked every secend

I got about 20 minutes into the video to the part where you realize the gun is missing and I bought the game. I've been on the fence for a while, but It seems so interesting and unique.

I really appreciate all your videos. This one was particularly wonderful and this game deserved a spotlight, it was really nice to see. Amazing work, keep it up!

Not gonna watch the video because I'm going through the game and don't want spoilers, still left a like 💓 To anyone on the fence about it, buy it. If you like amazing writing, great characters and a beautiful art style, go for it. Even if it doesn't look like your type of game, try it!

Big brain move: mute video is alt tab and go play the game but you still get the view. THEN come back and watch it for real 😎

I think the "beauty" of this Game is: It will never get a Second Game in that Spirit, because of the outfall of the Studio and his many Problems. But thats somewhat fitting for this Game...

Got my interest...I shall like and return to this video after I've done playing it...Love U son

Where’s Judgment, Son? I thought that was next after Like a Dragon? *sad dad noises*

Excited for this video son!

YOU KEEP DROPPING HEAT

Awwww yeaaaaa a new video from my boy let's gooo

I too painted "something beautiful is about to happen"

Great video 👍

This makes me want to hear your thoughts on the shadowrunners games, just because of how narrative those games are

I CANNOT believe you didn't show the "Contact Mike" scene.

Great video!

Key members of the Disco Elysium development team, including lead designer Robert Kurvitz, have reportedly left ZA/UM. The fate of the franchise is very unclear now.

a nice gift for my birthday

NEW SON UPLOAD LETS GOOOOOO!

This game has voices now? Dang, that must make it infinitely more playable. I felt like i was reading a book playing this game

This game hits you differently if you are struggeling with an addiction. I felt so lost when I had to report that I lost my badge and my gun and the cops were laughing at me.

Thanks for the great content, son.

You are really the favorite son.

The phonecall to Dora broke me

I won't ruin the ending, but it will have you like "wow this is why all of this started/happened"

"Aparently I'm a cop and I don't know what to do". Yep, that sums it up.

Just finished the game 5 minutes ago. I want more

I’m so hyped for the next yakuza game

Hey its cool I like your assertions very intellectual retrospective. The tie is as kids or the songs and robots at both chuck e cheese and showbiz pizza were part of ever kids memory and its children's only jumpscare game so Its draw is along those lines

This game is the embodiment of intrusive thoughts, and super funny if you let them win with your choices.

You rolled double sixes on the most important check in the game. Good. :)

Love me some Disco Elysium vid (yes, I'm rewatching, I like to do it for my fav titles). I have one nitpick though, YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED DISCO ELYSIUM if you didn't start with at least 4 Inland Empire to make your necktie talk as a second companion and to easily talk with the dead body in our IMAGINATION! I mean, really, the most weird, obscure and ominous lore and investigation facts are uncovered by Psyche skills + high Shivers, you learn a lot of things that you shouldn't know. For me the most canon Harry is a mentally ill, drugged out Harry with some Twin Peaks sprinkled in, and to make it happen it's the best to play with high Psyche and Physique, and sure, we can play Intellect + Motorics Sherlock type, but Harry that doesn't hear voices, doesn't believe in supranatural, and doesn't talk to his tie and the spirit of the city isn't REAL.

Just because a background skill check succeeds, doesn't mean that information is correct or even remotely useful. Which to me was a source of massive enjoyment for the game. You present them as being pass/fail = right/wrong, but I really don't think that's the case.

You truly are my favorite son. Don't tell your siblings.

I'll play this one day !!
