I'll give it a 7/10 for being a 10/10 experience that is brought down by three technical issues which each knock a point off my rating.AZ/UM announced today that we finally have a release date for Disco Elysium – The Final Cut, and it will be March 30th, 2021.
I still recommend it though if you can handle the issues I brought forward. So this may just be a very buggy game in general.
So all in all this is a very good game that's bogged down by its poor technical state on Switch though I heard some of these problems like ridiculous loading or crashes even carry over to other platforms as well. It doesn't happen too often but when it does it really sucks. Sometimes you loose several minutes of progress and have to go through several loading screens to get to where you were before. It's not game breaking but annoying when your character just wanders off in the opposite direction of where you wanted him to go before you course correct and he actually performs the intended action. I don't know if it's pathfinding issues but sometimes you need to repeat inputs in order for the character to actually do the right thing. The controls don't always do what you want them to do. Wish they had found a less intrusive solution. However there are times where you go through several long load screens in quick succession and that stuff really adds up. The loading is not great but OK in isolation.
But what genuinely bothers me are the load times, the buggy controls and occasional crashes. I don't mind that the Switch version has regular framedrops because I honestly don't think it matters for this type of game. The technical side of things is a lot rougher though. A fantastic combination of RPG and murder mystery game as long as you are OK with lots of dialoge. This one is hard to judge because the game itself is legitimately a 9/10 or even 10/10.

Everyone else will be sucked into its vortex. You will know IMMEDIATELY if this isn't the kind of game you want to play, then you will go online and score it a 1. You're just an insignificant individual trying to make his way in a harsh world that existed well before you and doesn't care if you succeed or fail. You can't act badly without being punished. The gameplay depends entirely on you remembering what people said to you and imagining the mostly un-pictured world around you. So the extended loading times and trekking across the same terrain allowed me to reflect on what had just happened to me. What most reviews don't tell you is that this is a game that largely takes place in your own mind.
