I probably missed it, but can you resize the texts?
I'm playing on a TV from a couch, and after watching some of the videos again, I think the texts are a bit too small for my setup.

Must be next week sometime, I guess. Not going to announce it at the weekend.
Whoa, yet another Disco Elysium thread to keep an eye on.
Yes, there's a slider for text size. I usually play at one step larger than seen in the trailer.
Also, there's something interesting going to happen on Tuesday.

The story of my life, hah.
Nice! Will be a good fit on Switch Lite :P :P :P
Hmmm....

Okay, that is good. I generally really hate % based dialogue checks, but they can be fun if failure is not the end.
Sweeeet.
Hope it's more than just the pricing info. Preview drops of the first few hours, maybe some new videos or a deep dive into the skills would be great.
The release date has been pushed ahead a week? (hah, I wish :( ).
So itching to play this game.
Going back through some old interviews, I kind of forgot about some of the Thought Cabinet stuff.
I kept focusing around the attributes/skills and forgot this other thing.
I really have no concept of how the thought cabinet will work. I mean, every part of it makes sense in isolation, but I can't see how it'll all fit together. Like, if you've been using your thought cabinet to become a massive racist (which apparently according to interviews is in the game), how majorly does that impact your character outside of the thought cabinet? How much will it twist your dialogue?

Steam Post on Thought Cabinet
Price is at the bottom
You can get Disco Elysium on October 15th for 39.99 USD / 39.99 EUR / 34.99 GBP respectively.
$40 is nice and all, but why no pre-order? Why publishers do this?
By opening pre-order, the game might be displayed at the top sliders and top sellers tab in the front page of Steam. Which will lead to more visibility, and more sales.

I'd say it's a little on the cheap side. Based on the previews, I'd have been willing to pay £50. But yeah, I'm sure they've done their fancy maths to work out what the best price for the general consumer is.
lol what? The art style is phenomenal, it's almost look like watercolor, and from a previous interview, everything is hand placed, nothing generic, no assets reused.
I honestly would pay full price for this, so $40 is a complete steal. Also, the thought cabinet sounds so fucking cool. The wait just got a whole lot longer.
Check the post above for the link to today's Steam post, they confirmed $40.
Oh, nice, I missed that post
Check out the new video and Steam Community link posted on this page, it's an overview of the thought cabinet system
man, is that what you say when your friends tell you they can't get over their ex?
do you remember how fucken bad RPGs were pre-2019, before you could customize your soul?
I meant that I can't get over how unique and astounding this game's visual aesthetics are- like an oil painting come to life . Literally nothing like in the market alongside, Gris which is not even in the same isometric genre.
Umm...wallpaper size, please?!?!?
Might be a part of the deluxe edition according to the blog post.
They meant they can't get over how good it is, hence why they been posting multiple gifs of it.
Thought cabinet sounds awesome. I'm most excited about how some of them can have literal game changing effects like affecting how far you can zoom out your screen.

Too early to tell at this point, but based on the game's stated goals of allowing the player to be an imperfect being capable of a wide range of motives, strengths and weaknesses...I'd wager that it's absolutely not ironic.
And perhaps, just perhaps, the game has the emotional nuance to pull it off in spectacular fashion.
They're saying they can't get over how good it looks, but even if they weren't you talking about how everything is hand placed and no assets are reused would have, like, zero bearing on them liking/disliking the artstyle.
At least I can guess where they got their inspiration from.

I always wanted to get into crpgs but the combat system is mostly too complicated or jsut simply not fun, so this has been on my radar for quite a while and I am glad it is finally coming out. Will still wait for reviews.
Probably not. You can be a radical feminist, makes sense you can also hate feminism. Goes with their "be a facist, a liberal or a socialist" thing they've got going on.
If it helps, I think most of the writers for this were women.
Well, good news, there is no combat system here separate from the rest of the gameplay.
Yeah. But this is going to be one of those games where you have to go in with your widebrimmed "Depiction is Not Endorsement" hat on. By all accounts the main character can be a Bad Person, they don't have to be, but they can be.
(And if you ascribed all the political views they're claiming it's possible to express to the creators, you create a totally incoherent human being in your head.)

From what I've seen of the devlogs from the game I doubt the game will have endorsements of shitty behavior. It will definitely allow you, or depending on how you've built your character force you, to be a shithead. If it's handled correctly, I think it will be super interesting.
Just like many are in real life.
There's who we aspire to be. And there's who we actually are.
I've rarely encountered anyone that lines up 1:1.
We're a beautiful mess of internal conflict.

Indeed. FWIW, the devs said that they are a leftist bunch out of Estonia during (iirc) the long form EGX interview. So, it ought to be a matter of depiction and not endorsement.
Good to finally have a price but doesn't really tell me how much I'm going to pay on the Australian store. Seeing as there's no pre-order I guess I'm going to have to wait until release to find out. Bit ridiculous eh.
Fucking Chapo Trap House is in the game, the devs are prolly more to the left than most of ERA.
That's the first bad thing I've heard so far about the game (and it's not about right/left). In what way are they in the game?
Speaking of voice acting, I hope the dude from the Thought Cabinet trailer is in the game lol, fucking love this guy's voice.
e: also hope that the VA is of similar recording quality, I love it when dialogue sounds like it's been recorded with a really high quality mic from like millimeters away
