if he talks about books, you better damn well listen
Not even remotely close to being objective. It's extremely sympathetic to leftism, thinks communism is understandable but misguided, and skewers capitalism and liberalism frequently. I expect the new political vision quests will do even more of this.
All of this is fine to me--I don't mind when games take an ideological position, even if it disagrees with my own--but others might not find it palatable.

I felt the game took the piss fairly equally out of each leaning. I didn't go hard into critiquing their jokes to see which was more heavy-handed. If you can't stand having your team made fun of, I would skip it. If you're an adult who can handle it, the writing is top notch and well worth the asking price.

I owned the game from launch but never finished it.
Does this new release come free for previous owners of the original or anything?
The fully voice over seems to be exactly what I needed to remedy the absolute boredom I felt reading through playing the game.
Good on anyone who can enjoy it in the original, but it really felt something was missing once I realized it's been 15 minutes pass the intro game segment and I haven't heard a single voice but ambient noise and sound effects as I roll through the dialogue.
Might as well play my old choose your own adventure text games if that's the case

Cool, I might give this a chance as soon as the standard physical version drops.

You can definitely beat it in 12-20 hours if you rush through the main quest

Despite no official word from the Dev Team as far as I can see, it is widely believed you would need to, due to the whole new areas, quests and characters it adds.

I would say Console as it has been refined to work really well on TV but it is up to you!

Looking forward to starting a new playthrough tonight.
I’ve never played anything like it before (I guess PS:T) but would definitely play more stuff like this in the future if people were making it so hopefully it does well on console.

Think of it as an old fashioned point and click adventure with rather significant role playing elements - mostly present in the form of dice rolls during conversations. The stellar writing, characters and the world-building are the game's high points. If tight involving gameplay is your jam, then this might not be the game for you.
I for one can't wait to go through the game again. It has rather limited replayability, so new content is as good a reason as any to jump back into the game and experience it anew.

They’re idiots for not just putting it on the store for preorder. Who actually releases their game on a digital store like this anymore?

Actually a lot of the games in the PlayStation Store don't get digital pre-orders. I have no idea why, maybe they have to pay Sony extra for the promotion on the page with the upcoming titles?

I think if I remember correctly, they update it around 1PM eastern time.

It's on Xbox
Edit: oh I guess that's fake news, didn't realize it was coming later to Xbox and Switch

oh dang nice, I was planning on picking it up anyway so the 20% discount is just icing on the cake
PSN definitely doesn't get as many pre-orders as say eShop but it is kinda odd to me that Disco Elysium didn't go up for pre-purchase yet games like Rust & Secret Neighbor are

Gotta love that translation on the local PSN page.
I'll translate it back to English for you:
"Disco Elysium is a groundbreaking open world RPG. You are a detective, who has on his disposal an unique skill system and a whole city block's which goes through your road. Listen to unforgettable characters, brake murders or take bribes. Become a hero or a humans definitive catastrophe."
Sounds really unique.
(I'll be definitely buying this later this week.)

How is the PS store such complete trash? I can't even redeem a damn code to put the money onto my account to buy this. At some point when I hopefully pay $32 for this I'm sure I'll be getting a great deal. Excited to play it.
