>Create the Disco scenes of your dreams.
>Introducing Collage Mode: the new functionality that gives you the creative freedom to stage just about anything in-game.
lmao ZA/UM usurpers come up with worst possible choices for the franchise now that they kicked out the creators and have become just an Amazon subsidiary now, expecting to see Disco Elysium NFTs soon

 No.26864

how is it any different than SFM

Isn't this kind of functionality common in gacha games?
How long until you get to play as the real Gillaume le Million?

There's a huge tonal disparity between what the game is about and this recently added mode.

 No.26869

>>26868
and also the fact this got added after the whole fiasco with the shareholders

What's so bad about it, let people do what they want.

What's bad about the company adding a wacky XD feature right after the creators got kicked out and will not receive a single penny from any future sales? Dunno.

 No.26873

>>26870
as much as capitalism insists on it, corporations arent people

 No.26874

>>26873
I meant people using the feature

>>26872
That has nothing to do with this though. Also isn't there some other people who were also original devs saying that those people's claims were BS?

 No.26875

>That has nothing to do with this though
Uh, right, the parent company taking over an IP and adding random shit without the input of the original creators is irrelevant information.

 No.26876

>>26875
I doubt the original devs are seething over this inclusion in particular

The sequel is gonna suck so bad, everyone creative is gone

"it’s pretty fucking sad to rob an author of a universe he’d been working in for over a decade, steal a game from the core creative team that made it happen, and then appear to have such a large amount of trouble figuring out what to do with it that you add a Meme Making Mode"

Can someone explain what it means to be a "majority shareholder" and a "minority shareholder"? Apparently Kurwitz and his buddy are minority shareholders.

 No.26881

>>26877
It's also going to lose its critical edge. It's socialist elements are probably going to be spoonfed instead of the clever way it's woven in the story.

 No.26882

>>26880
Shareholders with varying influence over the company they own stocks over. Typically majority shareholders are actively managing companies while minorities are just betting on their success

 No.26883

>>26882
I imagine when the creative core of the game wanted to make this game, funding wise they had to throw in whatever lot they had saved up with the bulk of the cash coming from this CEO guy and other companies. Part of me wishes they remained totally independent and started a cooperative but I guess a game developer cooperative isn't so easy to start especially with publishing and shit.

They did it to distract from their grab of the company from the creators. This post explains it well.

To put it in absolute terms; a majority shareholder owns the majority of the company, therefore they can do whatever they want with it (as long as they don't intentionally destroy the business), minority shareholders don't make management decisions (unless they group together to make a majority) or are on the board, etc

it's a fitting end for Disco Elysium ig

>so fun guys please don't talk about the fact that the corporate far right scumbag of estonia have purged the team

Is it? Last I heard they got all replaced by a bunch of Americans and Europeans.

there's literally nothing worse than an estonioid
