I've only played RedSec and Gauntlet, thus my review doesn't reflect the total package.

Gauntlet is straight out a boring affair. At first, the idea of different objectives seems interesting, but it quickly devolves into randomness or boring ones, such as the vehicles focused objectives. I feel the general gameplay of BF doesn't suit a mode like this.

RedSec is a mixed bag. For starters, it doesn't add anything interesting to the formula. The access to cards and the classes add a little bit of strategy, but some classes don't do much (such as Assault). If you add that the hit registration and TTK favors SMG and large magazines, then you quickly guess how the meta is going to be.
The map also has a lot of big areas surrounded by very simple camping spots that produce some very easy frags for the team defending. It's very easy to get third partied in this mode.

Other general issues are the menus, which are very unresponsive, specially when loading a rematch. The netcode goes to hell way too often for a game that is becoming more and more reflex based. Guns feel very samey between each other or even similar classes (carbines vs assault rifles), and the customization isn't there. The game pushes you to get the next big season pass that doesn't add anything to your weapon roster.

As for me current experience, I can't recommend it. If the gunplay and the rest of the issues extend to the main game, I don't think I can recommend it. There are better Battle Royale experiences, if you are looking for one.

This is one of those games you can just played very relaxed, but they also provide some lovely story about life. It's short, but I totally recommend it.

Simple, yet touching.

This game is certainly something unique. Leaving aside the things that people know at this point, like the small team or the fact that this is the studio's first game, this is a fantastic title.

It's imaginative, deep, and magical. The combat system is flashy and precise. The pictos system reminds me a little of Final Fantasy VIII and IX. You can build the party as much as you want. There are way more games that the team used for inspiration, such as Legend of Dragoon, Souls games, and more. It's a journey you need to take, even if you don't like RPGs.

I'm happy a game like this exists. It delivered way more that I expected. It's one of those games you take with you even after you see the credits roll.

Absolutely recommended.

In a way, I think giving a review to Disco Elysium is a disservice. This game is so deep, interesting, and complex that I don't think I can properly describe it. At the same time, it's a game that rewards the player actions. My experience with it can be completely different to yours. What I can say is that this game has made me think about life, the future and past. It's a deeply engrossing experience from start to finish.

It's not for everyone though. The game is, at its core, a point and click with tabletop RPG elements. There's almost no action. If you really want to be descriptive about it: the game is mostly a linear story, with several side quests that can give you different endings. Yet, what a story it is.

Sadly, due to a little bit of publisher intervention and a part of the developers, we won't see another Disco Elysium anytime soon. Multiple studios were formed from former devs, so at best we'll get a spiritual successor.

Even though you might hate it, I would still strongly recommend you to experience Disco Elysium and make up your own conclusions. It's one of those games that could take you for a wild ride.
