Other media, some willingly and others subconsciously, reinforce these stereotypes around the working class at every turn, sometimes even while trying to create affection. As worthless creatures unable to better themselves. For the working class to be characterised as drunk, stupid, and violent. It’s such a complex game that I feel I need to replay it - or at least let my first playthrough digest - in order to tackle some of its themes, but there was one thing that stood out to me from the start: Disco Elysium respects the working class. Even then, I appreciate that one is an objective flaw, while the other is more of a personal problem with the presentation. In my review, I called out its technical issues and the problems with an overly niche style of gameplay in an experience that should be welcoming to all, especially given its themes - but aside from that, I couldn’t find a fault. There’s a lot to love about Disco Elysium.
