I wouldn't mind someone else just making a game like Disco Elysium with all the myriad of possibilities and angles and such. Disco being extremely well-written was mere icing on the cake compared to the agency it has for an RPG. It goes above and beyond what even great RPGs like Baldur's Gate (any of the 3) do.
Though I suppose you would need a great writer to actually think of all the different possibilities of any particular dialogue or scene... 🤔
On the subject of writers... Didn't one of the writers for Disco have actual books published? Anyone know what they are or if they are as good as the game?
The book is Sacred and Terrible Air, it was written in Estonian but there are a couple of English fan translations. I enjoyed it. https://www.reddit.com/r/DiscoElysium/s/iVcX04yIRV
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Jamrock Hobo did a good breakdown of the book.
