is there a disco elysium 2 happening?

I think they were already sketching up ideas for a sequel when the whole fight about ownership of the studio and intellectual property escalated. I would think either party will wait for a resolution to who actually legally owns what before continuing work on a potential sequel. If DE2 ever happens, it will probably take a while - and it might well end up like all good critiques of capital; wholly recuperated and swallowed up by capital, melted down for parts and sloppified for easier consumption.

it might actually be okay, companies are dipping their toes into releasing communism flavored slop, like Andor or I'm a Virgo

ah who am I kidding, this is gonna be utter shit

the people who did most of the writing aren't on the team anymore (cf pending lawsuit over ownership of ZA/UM) so there's a 0% chance it's not revisionist garbage.

Unrelated but I'm a Virgo is amazing and I highly recommend it to anyone reading the thread, the first season has only like 8 30 minute episodes. If you have patience for something that's a little bit surreal and unique you will definitely enjoy.

agreed! absolutely top notch television, incredible show, although I wouldn't call it just "a little bit" surreal lol

We don't like to talk about it.

If people want more "real" DE content, finding an English translation of Sacred and Terrible Air is gonna be the only real option for a loooong time ~~maybe ever~~
