Anybody playing ebb esoteric?
Obvious inspiration from Disco Elysium and DnD, with more overt political tones.
I haven't played much past the intro, but the socialist path seems to be just social democracy, whereas the revolutionary path is as a bourgeois revolutionary

The player character seems to be a literal schizo like Harry. If the game's politics are terminally liberal, is it funny at least?

Played a bit more and the meshing of real world political ideas and DnD high fantasy and schizo stat dialogue got me to chuckle quite a bit.
I think it's funny.

this entire idea seems cancer. Every year that rolls on I hate DND more and more.

>bourgeois revolutionary

I haven't touched up enough on my theory to remember what this term means, care to explain? and also how is it reflected in the game?

>>46246
>>bourgeois revolutionary
the bourgeois were revolutionary during feudal times

>>46249
Ah, okay.

So why the fuck would someone
Make a game about politics which are completely irrelevant to the modern day??

Real reason is they didn't want to seem like a 1:1 copy of disco elysium and wanted a fun game. Funnier reasoning is that they are 200 autismo score marxist theoreticians making a bold choice to apply historical materialism in a medieval setting to stir up discussion in the right direction among communists, while also having a big dogwhistle effect on those uninitiated.

>200 autismo score marxist theoreticians
<thinking you can "apply" "historical materialism"
at least you didnt say "use dialectics" lol

Really really hoping it's not r/DnDmemes in a Disco skin.

Biggest Disco Elysium guy on YouTube/Xitter seems to be very positive about it, which is surprising because he has otherwise been very critical of other "Disco-like" projects.
I myself would love to play it ASAP but my PC is shit so I'll have to wait for the inevitable Switch port.

>>46240
Why did they copy the Disco Elysium UI exactly?

>>46274
its missing the aesthetics, but it's not shy about being a DE-clone. Theres a running bit where you go around calling yourself The Cleric, like how in DE you can go around saying you're The Law
