Successor of ZA/UM, but not of Disco Elysium unless Kurvitz and Rostov are also involved.
Kurvitz and Rostov have their own studio called Red Info.
Although I haven’t seen anything about what they’re working on.
I hope they all make a Disco Elysium “sequel”, that was such an awesome game, it should spawn its own genre of gaming.
Oh, yeah. That reminds me. I still haven’t played Disco Elysium yet.
I would personally recommend not purchasing it. Not saying don’t play it, but there’s no one who will profit from it who should.
I’m excited for the inevitable 2 hour long youtube retrospective breaking these factions down in a few years.
Splitters
It’s The Death of Superman all over again.
And similarly, all 4 of these are not the real deal. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for more games like this and I hope they’re good, but I will wait until Kurvitz and Rostov to be at the helm again before getting too excited.
If nothing else though, Argo Tuulik’s blog post for Summer Eternal is worth a read. I love his writing style, and that post is unreasonably funny to me, but you can still tell there is a lot of meaning behind what he says. I suppose things hit hardest when presented in ridiculous over the top metaphor.
Oh yeah, for sure. Don’t get me wrong, I hope these are good. I liked John Henry Irons, Superboy, and Eradicator as well, lol. Just not the original, and need to be able to stand on their own. I desperately want more games like DE but what I don’t want is a bunch of bad actors churning out bad clones sold on someone else’s good reputation. Not that I’m accusing any of these games of that, just that given ZA/UM’s current situation, it’s hard not to worry.
Wow. This is turning into one of those mythic games that was so so good but will never get a follow-up.
