After a lengthy hiatus, the party reconvenes to talk about where their journeys led in the war-torn, ideologically-disparate world of Disco Elysium in the season one finale. 

In this epic “D&D meets ‘70s cop-show” adventure, experience ElJohnCena’s high stakes shootout in the streets of Revachol, Schizoid Man’s mythical discovery, SkepticalMedium’s endless string of failed ability checks, and…not much of anything from BLeethal. 

Did everyone beat the game? Did anyone get the Platinum? And who understood what was actually going on? Find out the answers to these questions and more with the party in this final discussion about their thoughts on Disco Elysium.

Next, Skeptical Medium more thoroughly explores his thoughts on PSVR2 after a more in-depth play test.

Finally, time is running out in Season One but the end of the path is nowhere in sight. Check in on the party’s progress or lack thereof in Disco Elysium and find out if they will abandon their quest to get the Platinum or if they’ll fight ’til the bitter end.
