What's good this time around? In my cart so far I have Until Then, Disco Elysium, and MS Flight Simulator.

Pacific Drive is in there now too.

A strictly anti-capitalist fever dream adventure RPG getting completely consumed and milked by greedy capitalists who added nothing of value to its creation is peak this timeline.

Don't buy Disco Elysium. Pirate it.

Original devs got screwed over by the publisher and have encouraged folks to pirate it as not to let the publisher profit from their shittiness.

I get the principled reason to do this. But most people aren't set up to pirate. And even if they were, it's inconvenient to have games not attached to their steam library. I don't think anyone should deprive themselves of this masterpiece.

If the prospect of pirating is holding you back, just buy it. The game is too good to miss out

Disco Elysium is probably one of the greatest works of art this century.

I really need to try to get back into it. I have heard so many great things and I know it's a slow burn type game but I think I overwhelmed myself with trying to get perfect rolls on interactions.

Yes I definitely did some save scuming, cuz I didn't want to miss anything, but ultimately I think it's best to just let it play out as it will. I need to do another run for sure.
