- SPOILERS FOR DISCO ELYSIUM
Game: Disco Elysium
Song: Alt J - Intro
So, back again. In 4K now! Making an edit for a CRPG? Does anyone do that? Clearly, as usual. I enjoy making things difficult for myself. I could probably write an essay on the creation of this video. My current workflow has improved, so expect higher quality edits in the future. I’ve got another Disco edit in the works, something slower, using a lot of the some clips but focusing more on… her…
It was my first time using after effects, for things such as the gunshot trails. I tried my best to emulate the style of Disco whilst turning the ostensibly slow Tribunal into something more of an action scene. All the stuff at the tribunal gunfight was added by me, the graphics were done largely in photoshop edited from in game assets, the thought gained, etc. There’s a ton of smaller details literally nobody would notice, for instance that the phone in game doesn’t actually have an answering noise - so I took the check complete noise and added a bandpass filter, or the clicking leading up to a check completing being used to add emphasis as the “trigger pull” timer ticks down.
I’ve got some big projects in the works, so expect more stuff in the future. - Фільми й анімація
@1:15, visual calculus is showing that Titus rushes toward the mercenaries.
I love him.
I never noticed that, damn. Dude has balls of steel. He really deserves his spot as the Authority portrait.
The RCM could use a man like him
Only Disco Elysium can make you hate someone, then sympathize with them so quickly like that.
another thing i just noticed about that scene too is that you can see that theo runs a different path than all the other hardie boys and its actually the smarter path because it doesn't lead to a bottleneck and dead end and he would be harder to hit running parallel instead of s straight back right along the two mercenaries line of fire. Which is something I find interesting because earlier in the game when you first meet the hardie boys theo is portrayed as the experienced older person of the group that people don't mess with because he knows his stuff (and i also think the game mentions or insinuates that theo was the original leader of the hardie boys or holds a lot of sway of them and their actions because of his experience) and this small detail back that up.
Kitsuragi’s “God, please-“ is also bone chilling
It’s more insane when you realize what he’s asking for. Not only to hit a shit that is essentially the bullseye of a bullseye when he only just barely passed his shooting tests, but all because he hedged it all on that slim chance, throwing out all his own personal safety to save Harry. His friend.
the best line in the whole game
I loved it so much. I have the words tatted on me.
@@Nephshome That's so awesome
ua-cam.com/video/By_T39ENlkg/v-deo.html&ab_channel=PaulLooney
”This is a fight we can win” god, chills.
It fucks me up, between the delivery and the context and line
Not chills. Shivers.

That 'Win' audibly had a capital W.
"Detective arriving on the scene" will always be one of the most chilling phrases in videogame history. The phasmid encounter is art.
AAAAAAAAAa I love the way the individual thoughts chime in with such subtle but immensley powerful differences in their candor just AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
One of the few times every thought chimes in together while being supportive.
Where did game say it though.
@@fallenknight2580 at the end when talking to the cryptid. You need high psyche
I certainly do not have a soul. And If I did, it would never ache.
„lieutenant gives you a smile, only you can see”
it touches me every time 🖤
"God, please." In the soft, desperate tone of a man who has no faith in his aim, no faith in this scenario, and perhaps no faith in you. And still, our partner makes that one in a million shot - and does his best to save you.
Time to go back again and play Disco Elysium, thank you so much for this ❤️
+1 The lieutenant trusts you.
+2 Kim *truly* trusts you.
Kitsuragi? Of course I've heard of him. One of the finest officers to ever serve the 57th, and the 41st.
When you first meet Kim, if you pass a passive Esprit De Corps check, it tells you that he would throw himself in the line of fire to save you. Right at the beginning you could tell he truly cared.
It broke my heart to be a fascist, but he still likes me. I'll get him shot and finish the game immediately for the achievement, and restart just to finish with him once again. I can't betray that man. Everyone needs a Kim in their lives.
He is your half-brother
Everyone commenting on the beat drop after the tribunal, but what about that:
"Calling... Calling... Calling... Still Calling... Then, the Ocean breaks..."
"...Hello?"
Masterpiece.
YES This is also so good! This + drop keeps the video together so smoothly
Everything in this game was great but every single scene involving Dora was brilliant and heartbreaking. My man Kurvitz must've been through some shit in order to write that kind of dialogue
@@pabloc8808 I can feel that
Dude after that dialoge i just sat there for 10 minutes trying to put my self back together. It was devestating and brilliant.
@@keysage5454 Disco Elysium touches very profound cords of mine, too.
"This is a fight we can win"
Goddamn i love that line
Its haunting and beautiful and uhhhrgh the writing in this game man!
@@Gobbostopper yeah, so good
Except it's absolutely not a fight you can win :D Rhetoric also says something along the lines of "We can solve this peacefully"
"Stop, think.
You can detect.
Floor plans, bullet trajectories.
This is a fight we can win."
where is this qoute from? it's not in the tribunal and I've been trying to find out where it was said
@@somerandomguyontheinternet162 I think the quote is from the last part of the game where your precinct confront you, it’s saying you and Kim can beat them
fucking CHILLS
@@emrioh oh damn, No wonder I couldn't find it when searching for the whole sentence, Thanks
@@emrioh The "Floor plans, bullet trajectories" line is from the Visual Calculus check for the ballistics analysis in Klaasje's room.
One of those games where you realise you might've missed or neglected a few sidequests or made some "bad" choices but don't feel the need to restart immediately or abuse quicksaves because it's such an involving story that feels yours
I may have gotten the second worse result in the tribunal and I didn't care, because the story was so good and it did feel so inevitable I didn't even think about reloading. Such a brilliant game.
Except for that one Authority check fail in the church
This. I struggle so much when i feel i've missed out on something , or haven't picked the ''right path''. It can literally make me quit and restart a game ( i know, terrible). But i never felt that way with DE, nothing feels right, but yet everything is.
@@smugmountain1192 I didn't even press the button I saw the text and immediately restarted 💀
This was the only game where I didn't save scum every one of my failed rolls or bad decisions. The failures were always entertaining or still worth it. Except for when my 97% authority check failed near the end of the tribunal.
Jesus that merc tribunal pause and drop was amazing. Chills
That edit was art
Yeah I really want to see the tribunal in real-time
@@volition142 you haven’t played it yet?
@@gabe752 It still had those pauses
I think this is required viewing for everyone who's played Disco Elysium.
To spoil the fuck out of them? But yeah the video is great
@@magusperde365 re-read the comment he says people who have already played the game should check this out
@@faresalsayed9005@faresalsayed9005 he's burnt out reading all the dialogues inside Harry's head, so he cannot comprehend what the comment means.
0:53 That transition from the kneel as the narration says "the ocean breaks", into the bass drop and "hello" is magical
I don't want to say that original trailer was not intriguing and appealing to watch but your work... Man, this really deserves developers' attention!
This gives away too much to be at trailer
@@vedsingh2108 it literally spoils the whole game
@@lokman175200 So did the original two trailers for the game...
@@vedsingh2108 I feel like the biggest thing is the bullet trajectories from the window visual calc check but the rest might be passable
@@vedsingh2108 If you watch it without the context of Knowing the game, i dont think it spoils that much.
The info is more or less flushing over you.
That Visual Calculus edit was insanely clean. Thought I missed part of the game.
Fr I was like (Wait that wasnt an option in the game?!)
damn alt-j really fits the vibes of disco elysium
melancholy
[Hand/Eye Coordination + Drama Check] - Legendary Success: Your edit is a god damn masterpiece.
Shivers: somewhere, a bird sings. Its dark. The song brings light.
Visual calculus during tribunal looks like it's just belongs in game.
this is so gooood. if it didn't have such heavy spoilers in it i would send this to all my friends to convince them to play disco elysium lmao
Id say you could still use it to convince them since it doesn’t actually give any context for the spoilers. Go out there and shill in good conscience
@@SupahTrunks7
I second that.
Fail all those checks ;)
@@SupahTrunks7 It doesn't have context, but the player would get the context before they reached the scene the clips are from. My first playthrough I was fully convinced I was gonna solve the case before the tribunal, if I had seen this then I would have realized about halfway through the game that I was gonna have to fight the mercenaries to protect the Hardie boys so the countdown till the tribunal didn't really matter, my investigation was not going to be successful and Harry was gonna get shot. There would be way less mystery about the investigation if you went in with the knowledge that the Hardie boys were not your enemy and no matter what you did this was leading to bloodshed, and you would probably have that realization the first time you meet the Hardie boys on the second day, super early in the game. There's smaller stuff too, like if the player remembers there was a boat ride in this video when they make it to the tribunal without doing it they'll know Harry and Kim both survive because there's gonna be more content after the tribunal. They'll know Ruby kills herself, or at least threatens to. They'll know helping the speed freaks is good because they saw Harry dancing in the church with them. They'll know Harry's apricot chewing gum scented ghost is still out there and you can even call her. What I'm saying is I think if you show this video to someone to convince them to play the game it won't spoil anything when they watch it, but it will spoil things as they play the game. It definitely makes me want to play Disco Elysium more than the trailer on the steam page, but I think you would enjoy the game less if you watched this before playing
@@SupahTrunks7 Don't think so because honestly despite having the Horrific Necktie and Inland Empire warn me that something was about to happen, the Mercenary Tribunal caught me so off-guard I was like "shit fuck shit this can't be happening". Not knowing when it was going to happen, and how it was gonna go down really added to the tension in my experience, and I'd rather let others have a chance of maybe having a similar experience
DETECTIVE.
ARRIVING.
ON THE SCENE.
So i recently started playing disco, 1st playthrough. The "this is a fight...you can win." check made me feel so sad, so badass, and i really wanted harry to scrape through with kim as his boy. Phenomenal game, a lesson in writing
Who is Harry ? I know only Tequila Sunset
@@user-oo4ru3ch8u "I DONT WANT TO BE THIS KIND OF ANIMAL ANYMORE"
The game where a stick bug made me cry, it is a masterpiece.
I thought this was some official trailer or something. Holy shit this is amazing! So well done!
If it was it would spoil quite a bit of the game.
BUT IT IS REALLY AMAZING NONETHELESS
Fantastic work. The edited tribunal sequence really goes to show how quickly Harry's brain works...crazy stuff. 10/10 edit.
Harry is a very damaged genius, but a genius nevertheless. He can work out things from the smallest details and track them back to their source, he can peel open cover stories like tin cans and as Kim can testify, he never gives up.
Plus there's just the fact that he may be getting insights from "something" otherworldly. He can look at a line of bullet holes and see not only the victims, but the firing squad and the commanding officer, just as they were, the moment FIRE was called. He knew that woman's husband was missing before she was even ready to admit it herself. He speaks to corpses and they offer him truths. The city itself speaks to him, offering him secrets and warnings he seems to have no rational way of knowing.
Harry's mind has to move fast, it's the only way he could possibly keep up with it all.
@JamesTobiasStewart It's probably why he's still a Detective, despite all the chicanery he's gotten up to over the years. Not only does the man get *results* but he does it with an incredibly low Body Count.
He Detects. He Polices. He Keeps The Peace.
And it is enough.
I come back to this video constantly because of how amazingly it captures the feel of this game. However, I never noticed until now, that Kim actually turns and notices the rifleman MUCH before Harry does. Genuinely one of the best characters in media ever. God I love this game.
"Sunrise Parabellum"
Once, he lived in Liquor. He was Tequila Sunset.
Now, and forever, determined. He is focused. He is "the Law." By God, he is *Sober.*
He is Sunrise Parabellum.
My first tattoo
“I missed”
“Not true. He purposefully over-aimed and shot your window. You had him second guessing himself.”
The composed decisiveness of visual calculus and the other skills during the tribunal, when it really matters, is so gratifying after you’ve slowly rebuilt confidence in your identity as a competent detective. In those moments you’re not a emotional wreck or a failure. Your mind isn’t fighting itself. You’re Harry ‘Human can-opener’ Dubois and by god you have these killers, and this case on the ropes.
- You are the miracle?
- No. YOU are the miracle.
visual calculus showing up during the mercenary tribunal is such a great idea that it actually makes me mad it's not the case with actual game
bro dropped this one fire edit and dipped
Bro has been busy building communism, solving murders and most importantly getting an education.
He does intend to return between June-September though.
what a baller. keep going
@@Oblivionblade Building communism is the most important thing in life. Only 0.000001% of communism has been build, comrades. Time to get to work.
Great game, great edit, and great use of a highly underrated alt-J song.
jesus the spine chills. the only reason i could see this not being used for an actual trailer is the small things it spoils, like his name and the tribunal
Goddamn this is amazing, sent chills down my spine just as in my first playthrough feeling like a mess and just going at it with sheer will
Like ssethtzeentch said in his video about heroes 3: "While you have good games with strong followings, you also have exceptional games with fanatical followings" I think this easily applies to Disco Elysium.
unbelievably amazing edit, like holy fuck, especially the section with the pay phone, the pause in the music hearing Delores say "Hello" followed by the gunshot, it gives me shivers
I watch this all the time now; generally while on break at work. Thank you for this montage. I love this game so much.
Can't stop rewatching this absolute banger. Guess it's time to replay Disco Elysium.
This video has a vast soul and I will always return to it.
And the pure depression that comes after you understand. There will be no such game like Disco Elysium. Not even the second part.
Le Retour won't come. La Revacholiere won't be saved.
Sometimes you just gotta have faith. Ain't that a bitch.

Insanely good edit, you really managed to show the vibe of the game. Cant get enough of it!
I have watched this a solid hundred times.
I'm literally crazy about this video
Same
i need everybody in my life to be suddenly aware of this yk. it's driving me insane. so so good
i know its been years but, DETECTIVE
ARRIVING
ON THE SCENE
This video really captures the soul of the game. I know that sounds corny. But I can't think of any other way to explain it. You really did an amazing job.
I don't think that's corny at all! I had the same feeling about it! (❁´◡`❁)
And this is it, the one that convinced me to play this game
This is hands down the most beautiful tribute I've seen of this masterpiece game, you sir have moved me with this, subscribed.
nah this is legitimately such good god damn editing. I never knew someone could do an amv/edit to disco elysium of all things but you managed it and its sooooooooooo good. holy cra p dude. i'm sending this to all my friends gosh
"this is a fight we can win"
Harry: dodge this plebs
A brilliant edit for a brilliant game. Very well done!
Это лучший фан-мейд эдит, который я только видел. Идея с телефоном - моё почтение.
"You can...detect" You're GD right I can.
This is so good. I love this video so much, you did a wonderful job.
Calling...Callling...Still Calling...Then the Ocean breaks
I legit went weak in the knees, well done brov
I would actually be very interested in that essay on this video's creation, if you were ever possessed to make one.
This was a really cool video to watch, and I'm sure I'll be back next week to see it again.
Returning year later. Thanks again for introducing me to Alt - J, great band, An Awesome Wave is on my favourites playlist, even managed to see their concert
Straight up goddamn chills down my spine... Shivers.
this remains one of my favorite edits.
i watch this video daily,, the editing,, all the chosen scenes and voice lines are so perfect,, its all so so superb there's so many elements that i adore so much its unreal,, you captured the game so beautifully!! its a perfect summary of the overarching feelings the game envokes thank you so much for making this!!
Thank you!
I don't quite know what genra of video these type's of edits are, but I'll never get sick of the. Puts me right back in the game, absolutely love it.
Time for another playthrough!
Still keep coming back to this video, absolute masterpiece
I'm watching this in a loud place, then - a sudden realization comes: i must watch it again, when nothing will disstract me
I gotta say, this is insane edit.
Each detail and every sec is goddam goosebumps.
Very very well editing.
Sunrise Parabellum. Makes me feel a little bit more motivated for one of "Those" days
This was really good work, detective 🤝
This is one of my favorite songs and my favorite game at one place. I can't explain how much I love it, thank you so much for this art.
I watch this at least once per week.
god, what a video. thank you so much, incredible work
This video is legendary
For me the most beautiful moments in the game are very small and hard to get. There are so many little moments like that in the game depends on which way you build Harry. Some moments were too personal for me, like this one:
SPOILERS AHEAD.
For example my moment was on the island at the end, if you dont sleep in the bunker and go to the coast behind it at the first place, next to the big chain, that goes into the sea from some other destroyed bunker literally on the edge of that island. If you have very high Inland Empire, Shivers, Volition and Perception, you found the pants called Pour L'Homme Labourer Jeans and Apricot Chewing Gum Wrapper, interacted with it, got and internalized thought Apricot Chewing Gum Scented One, you have that thought dialogue:
INLAND EMPIRE: - A strange feeling... looking at the water. Maybe you should wander off into the sea? Leave it all and walk in...
ELECTROCHEMISTRY: - With a bottle in your hand. - "A bottle in my hand?" - Always.
"Why?"
INLAND EMPIRE: - Perhaps there's someone there? Under the water. Waiting for you.
SHIVERS: - In front of the video rental on the corner. At the crossing...
PERSEPTION: - Smelling of Tutti Frutti and betrayal.
PAIN THRESHOLD: - Baby, you know it's going to hurt.
"But it's cold..."
INLAND EMPIRE: - Yes -- cold and still. But love is warm, like inside of her mouth. - "No-no-no-no" - Yes, yes, yes, yes.
VOLITION: - No-no, we're not starting with that. Not now. Not this time. This thought is over.
Raise your sight.
INLAND EMPIRE: - In the snowing mirrors of the bay you see Martinaise, reflected. Tall edifices of ruins reach into the water, like shimmering towers. And the shacks too. Pine trees and moto lorries, upside down... Islets and posts like stepping stones lead into the water in front of you. Go. Step in... it's been too long.
[Shake your head]
The entire vibe, the La Revacholiere ost, the knowledge, that its almost the end. its just... oof.
Got a „Sunrise Parabellum“ Tattoo cause of this video. This game should be used as a therapy substitute
This is fucking awesome.
Some kind of superstar
SUNRISE, PARABELLUM!! This edit was AMAZING, and far cooler than anything Harry deserves.
What you mean by that?
He more than deserves it.
Detective. Arriving. On the scene.
It's the *only* moment where the voices in his head come together to say it, the only moment where they agree on something. All the other times they are at odds with each other, each one giving Harry its own perspective. But that part, they come together to say it. It's the one immutable fact about him; he *is* a good detective, the human can-opener, who manages to get people to open up to him, and to crack the most difficult cases; as you find out later, before his bender, he was the best detective in his precinct.
I keep getting back to this video, it's so fucking good it's absurd
You made the best trailer for Disco Elysium, the best game ever made.
18 TIMES WATCHED IN 2 WEEKS.
I want people to watch this to get them in to the game!... but really it makes me want to force friends to play this game so I can show them this.
Used to make AMVs as a kid . I think I know how much vision went in to this. And that feeling when you nail a great visual with the drops in the music, and the the narrator overlay. It's soooooo good.
I love this because It feels like you loved making this. it comes through. Thank you. it's awesome yo!
This is probably the best Disco Elysium edit I've seen, I keep coming back to it! Great work man
Oh god this was so brilliantly made. I played the game before the full voice acted edition. God, I guess I have to play it again!
You owe it to yourself to play the final cut edition
"Time to get to work." will always be one of the most chilling phrases in videogame history. The phasmid encounter is art.
I discovered this game just a couple of months ago and cant stop thinking about it. That moment
Detective arriving
On the scene
So powerful. The tipping point of harry rising . Taking back his life.
Maybe i can too
i know you can
this is wildly good, and i havent even played the game
play it right now. pirate it. i'm on my knees begging. if the game changes your life even a fraction of how it changed mine, it'll be worth it
Watched this and bought the game. Might as well be the damn trailer for it. haha
In 2 and a half minutes, you made me remember the whole range of emotions from the Disco. Bravo! Wish to you millions of views
DISCO NEVER DIES
*"Sunrise, Parabellum"*
Absolutely awesome work. Shows how much you Discoed Elysium.
A new game to add to the collection :3, great editing as always
Although I spend a lot of time reading the comments on UA-cam, I rarely write my own cuz reasons. Simply put, this video has been a pleasure. I love Disco Elysium and have been looking for this type of a skit for some time now, and man you have certainly delivered on that front. Good job, seriously!
I always cry watching this video because it sums up the whole experience of playing the game, the alt-j part also matches very well with the game
This video is the reason this alt J song is in my top 5 Spotify songs this year lmao
I think narrativly, this is probably the greatest game ever created.
This is a masterpiece
DAMN this is so good
The moment Harry fired the bullet I got goosebumps all over me
“Sunrise, parabellum.” is such a cool line…
This video is so good I might as well just start crying
He was Tequila Sunset. Now he is Sunrise Parabellum.
ZA/UM should definitely pay attention to this masterpiece
Thank you for your incredible work!❤
I never comment on vids but oh my GOD ??? what an absolute banger i was hooked from the beginning honestly great job
I watch this almost every day. It keeps me focused and helps me remember who I want to become.
"Time to get to work."
Never a missed line.
I come back to this every couple of months. Absolutely amazing
Your work is so breathtaking that i am still coming back to it from time to time
And it still makes me so impressed
Music, moments, words, everything..
Wow, this is really neat. It could've been the official trailer if the music wasn't so loud and the shootout segment was shorter. Nitpicks aside, very well edited!
