The only one I care about is the one with the core writers.

Will be interesting to see what the others end up making in terms of gameplay but the core writers are the reason that DE is on par with actual literature where every other game in existence is a toy by comparison.

Ahhhh no but this is so real bocchi-cry Why can't other games have real writing...

@Awoo@hexbear.net

Pathologic (and Pathologic 2) also have real writing! They're easily on par with Disco Elysium in terms of writing quality! (I don't disagree with the general point, I'm just out here shilling for Pathologic 2. Because it's great and Pathologic 3 is coming out next year with any luck and I'm so excited!)

Kurvitz and Rostov have their own company, Red Info ltd. that is funded by Netease and is apparently working on something, but we probably won't get more news until the legal trouble with Disco Elysium itself is resolved
