Disco Elysium || Detective. Arriving. On the scene.

SPOILERS FOR DISCO ELYSIUM
Game: Disco Elysium
Song: Alt J - Intro

So, back again. In 4K now! Making an edit for a CRPG? Does anyone do that? Clearly, as usual. I enjoy making things difficult for myself. I could probably write an essay on the creation of this video. My current workflow has improved, so expect higher quality edits in the future. I’ve got another Disco edit in the works, something slower, using a lot of the some clips but focusing more on… her…

It was my first time using after effects, for things such as the gunshot trails. I tried my best to emulate the style of Disco whilst turning the ostensibly slow Tribunal into something more of an action scene. All the stuff at the tribunal gunfight was added by me, the graphics were done largely in photoshop edited from in game assets, the thought gained, etc. There’s a ton of smaller details literally nobody would notice, for instance that the phone in game doesn’t actually have an answering noise - so I took the check complete noise and added a bandpass filter, or the clicking leading up to a check completing being used to add emphasis as the “trigger pull” timer ticks down.

I’ve got some big projects in the works, so expect more stuff in the future.

visual calculus showing up during the mercenary tribunal is such a great idea that it actually makes me mad it's not the case with actual game

[mutedups]

That Visual Calculus edit was insanely clean. Thought I missed part of the game.

[JakkieDivinci]

@1:15, visual calculus is showing that Titus rushes toward the mercenaries.

I love him.

[zombezyb]

Visual calculus during tribunal looks like it's just belongs in game.

„lieutenant gives you a smile, only you can see”
it touches me every time 🖤

0:53 That transition from the kneel as the narration says "the ocean breaks", into the bass drop and "hello" is magical

[Arannatt]

”This is a fight we can win” god, chills.

[mecharabbit]

"This is a fight we can win"
Goddamn i love that line

[boybillythebutcher]

Everyone commenting on the beat drop after the tribunal, but what about that:
"Calling... Calling... Calling... Still Calling... Then, the Ocean breaks..."
"...Hello?"

Masterpiece.

[juanaolg]

this is so gooood. if it didn't have such heavy spoilers in it i would send this to all my friends to convince them to play disco elysium lmao

[HarryisI]

One of those games where you realise you might've missed or neglected a few sidequests or made some "bad" choices but don't feel the need to restart immediately or abuse quicksaves because it's such an involving story that feels yours

[buira]

"Detective arriving on the scene" will always be one of the most chilling phrases in videogame history. The phasmid encounter is art.

[amsel]

damn alt-j really fits the vibes of disco elysium

[Nomadith]

"God, please." In the soft, desperate tone of a man who has no faith in his aim, no faith in this scenario, and perhaps no faith in you. And still, our partner makes that one in a million shot - and does his best to save you.

Time to go back again and play Disco Elysium, thank you so much for this ❤️

[quertie]

I think this is required viewing for everyone who's played Disco Elysium.

[unbound]

I come back to this video constantly because of how amazingly it captures the feel of this game. However, I never noticed until now, that Kim actually turns and notices the rifleman MUCH before Harry does. Genuinely one of the best characters in media ever. God I love this game.

[Nabo]

The game where a stick bug made me cry, it is a masterpiece.

[veterandecanus]

1:23 i like that titus was first who noticed that Henry pulled out gun and was ready

[barbequejack]

[Hand/Eye Coordination + Drama Check] - Legendary Success: Your edit is a god damn masterpiece.

[AkiraSpikes]

And the pure depression that comes after you understand. There will be no such game like Disco Elysium. Not even the second part.
Le Retour won't come. La Revacholiere won't be saved.
