I love how both Reggie and Woolie were joking around when asking the racist lorry driver if the the racist mug was his and then they both turn to disgust when the driver starts laughing at it.
that happened to me too. its a clever way to keep you on your toes with him i think, no matter how stupid or laughable the racist is theres always something he can do to get under your skin, no matter how small.
@@lizardking796I mean, you're literally showing him his own brand of humor, it's not that surprising that he'd laugh, though it does betray his horrible, possibly absent, sense of humor.

@@leo8273 Sadly it probably would have lacked most the charm of the first game considering the publisher basically stole the rights to the world and fired the original writer and artist (and probably several other involved parties) early on.

"Hey, I'd like a Disco Elysium Best Of." "Sure thing, I've got You covered. Here's a playlist of 113 videos." "But... that's the whole playthrough..." "Did I stutter?"
The early parts of the playthrough are the best part. Everything after the tribunal is just watching their reactions to what most people got as an ending minus the detective Cuno. All in all, probably the best playthrough of this game on TH-cam.
The best part about 35:26 is that it's the city of Revachol itself finishing the lyrics to DMX. That's the same voice that Harry hears in the HARDCORE party if he passes checks during dance in the church, and it's La Revacholiere - The City of Revachol.. That's an amazing scene as well.
It's also real chilling when Shivers says that the plan for the club will never work and at another time near the church She says: "THERE IS A HOLE IN MY HEART." That church is the Genius Loci of the city. It represents what the city was formed from by the settlers: A hope to escape the Pale in a new, free world. The Return must be very important if She wants to talk to the detective directly inside her heart. I guess both the detective and the city have holes in their hearts, have great experience regarding failure, and a desire to Return. Not 'cared for' by an elitist group who only want to use the city and keep Revachol from her destiny: Resolving one of History's Questions. (Man I do love this game. Just can't shake it from me even on a fourth play through.)
A few other rare instances of that voice chiming in. I know it does if you make the roll to re-ring Slipstream on the doorbell, and I THINK if you have high Shivers while reading the ledger's postcard.

BEST OF. ARRIVING. ON THE SCENE. Hey guys. Siv here. This is Best Of #14 from me, and the hardest LP to compile so far(the second being Dokapon), but was still fun to work on. Had to use a lot of jump-cuts, and the text-heavy stuff had to be left out, like Joyce's history lessons and The Greatest Innocence/Dolores Dei stuff. I put The Unsolvable Case in because it's a really good case file. The most heavily-debated thing with myself was the Evrart-Gizmo joke, as both were fat dudes with their desks being a part of them. While it was obscure-ish, I decided to leave it in at the end. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it. Cheers.
God this game... I started playing it in 2023 and knew absolutely NOTHING about it. The only little information I had was that the main protag was the most saddest, wettest, stinky, pathetic old man in the entire fictional world. I boot up the game and immediately got confused because of the amnesia. I thought I missed something. Then, I talk to Klasse and realise holy shit, this amnesia bit is meant to fuck you over. Then I talked with Garte and Kim and loss my absolute shit when my fucking TIE began talking to me. Finished the game in two days. Loved it so much that I immediately started a new one with new skills. Finished that and started a new one, going down a completely different path. This game is so fucking amazing. Easily my favourite rpg.
4+ months later, and "I'm not hungry anymore" still absolutely SENDS me. This playthrough was a gem. Good lord. I really need to start up that second playthrough soon and fully embrace being a mess.
I wish the entire LP was available with the facecams. Finally gave this game a chance, thinking it can't possibly be as good as it's rumored to be. I love being proved wrong like this. A joy to relive the best moments ( and discover some of the missed ones) with y'all.
The DMX part was hilarious and brilliant like you said. The writing in this is actually incredible. Can make you feel so much but also be so funny. Impressive.

Excuse me, there's already a "Best of Disco Elysium" compilation. It might be some 100 episodes long, but that's what it takes to include all the good parts.
I did not know you could learn about the pale that early. I almost missed it my first play through. Love how much credence it gives to the apocalypse cop approach. I also love Joyce she’s so cold.
Seriously, the best game ever. Just started replaying it with the voices. A TON of stuff I either forgot about or never saw the first time. I do think it would have been better if the various personality traits had different voices. That's how I imagined it before the voice acting was added.
I always come back to this video from time to time, and I just want to say this has probably been one of the most entertaining playthroughs that I have ever watched from any LPer.
Y'know, I wasn't going to watch a replay of a game I already played, but fucking damn this was just so funny. It's like I already had my Michelin star meal but now I get to see some other guys enjoy it but with a lot more flavour to add.
Do not get me wrong Disco Elysium Best of is amazing to get it faster than expected. I wonder if 13 sentinels is difficult task of a Best of due to it story content and Woolie and Reggie moments of the LP.
Everything; It's a game about everything. Well, more precisely, for my two cents, it's a game about living in the ashes of a failure of communism, but also under an unjust and hopeless capitalism; an trying to find hope and meaning nonetheless. Also a game about a cop who has to solve a murder despite the mother of all hangovers.
I have been watching lets plays for 10+ years now and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is the best one I've ever seen by a country mile - and I'm only up to the blackface crisis!
I loved this so much. 🥰 And also laughed my ass off. 🤣 But really, it does show things like "what happens when you fail at Empathy / Autorithy" and the subtleties of phrasing and masking meaning with words. It is a marvelou game and, you guys, a top notch company. Thanks!
Disko Elysium is like playing in a DnD setting, trying to get kicked out of the group but the DM just rolls with absolutely everything
