It really killed me how on my second playthrough where I chose all the unhinged, violent, substance abusing, bigoted etc etc options, Kim's assessment still comes around to being like "nah hes a pretty cool guy tho."
I wasn't able to do that but I got my job back cuz they felt so bad for Cuno xD I remember Jean saying 'you're lucky you've got this kid with you and he needs help, otherwise you'd be fired'
You know, this video did make me realize that this is essentially the ending in a nutshell. Obviously there's some paths you can take where you can't get your job back, but the fact that you're a cop that's been known to have amnesiac benders from time to time, destroying your car, selling your gun, going around talking about killing yourself, and still keep your job isn't actually cool, but very scary. You can be a complete racist piece of shit, you can do really bad things and most of the time they simply have no consequences for harry. This is probably one of the most overlooked, but biggest critiques the game has to say in the end, how little accountability cops have, how strong the blue line really is when it comes to protecting their own.
Everybody praising the Kim impression, (and its amazing) but the impression of Jean is spot on with his insult inflections. I wish this game had more memes, the thought cabinet has so much potential.
@@uhoh7545 Yeah, seriously. Somehow, meeting a know-it-all asshole and hearing him say a weird ass term, helps *you learn how to materialize money by also becoming a know-it-all asshole.* *Apricot-Scented Gum* could've been required for that crazy awesome scene near the end of the game(no spoilers here).

@@uhoh7545 Seeing "-2 Useless Art Degree" when i was trying to pass a white check has me laughing so much I had to pause the game and take a breather. I don't think I've played a better game in my life.
This is literally what Kim said about me in my first run, he was like “this dude is one of the biggest scumbags I’ve ever met, but he just solved a murder I was having trouble figuring out, and discovered an entirely new intelligent species in the process, so I’d say he’s better than Dick Mullen himself.”
I spent a lot of time playing this weird game. Never expected to like it, but it took up a lot of brain space, so I had to eject it. This is what came out in a fugue state.
@@sarpcanbay1887 Nah it fits. Moralism is defined less by being a moderate and more by just not actually believing in anything. The moderate centrist stuff is a convenience not a matter of any core ideological principals.

kim said i smoked a TON in front of him. girl i smoked ONCE (1 time) and then took the cigarettes out 3 other times but couldn't figure out how to use them and put them away. YOU'VE smoked in front of ME more. he did forgive me for my constant preaching about the apocalypse tho which was cool of him
I just finished it again recently and they just forget about ol Iosef on that island while they drive back to Jamrock and I think that fact works very well with this interpretation of events. This is brilliant.
@@Hypogean7 After the stick insect and you left the delirious demented old dude probably walked into the ocean. Good job once again Harry, you piece of shit.
I spend way too long trying to figure out, if this was genuinly from the game or not (figured you could've just added the overlay stuff for fun on top of it). Great job, the impressions are *spot* on!
Absolutely disturbingly accurate rendition of my actual game ending where I chose to be a Half-Light Harry with psychopathic political tendancies - that is, whatever sounded the craziest at the moment. edit: actually so good. Probably the best Disco Elysium meme on the internet.
It's been nearly two years and this might still be the best singular work of critical satire aimed at Disco Elysium. It just elegantly undercuts the whole game's preponderance at the knees. Lovingly rendered parody, perhaps, but sometimes the most salient criticisms come from a place of love.
Absolutely a place of love. I've never played a visual novel that was this expansive, earnest, absurd and poignant. And while reading all about the complex sociopolitical systems of a fantasy world, I saw how the creators viewed their own, and really considered my own values. Whatever else the game is, it's singular. There's nothing like it!
Awesome Parker !!!♥️w♥️ I love your videos, I already missed you uploading content to your channel, when does the second season of mao mao come out? i cant wait to see it
To be fair, I didn't create that image. It was a meme that was going around, I just incorporated it. No idea who created it, but I'd love to credit them!

@@nzpowa._.6662 As someone with ADHD you do have my sympathies. There are some great games out there, but sometimes you just end up playing the same old stuff cuz you don't have the focus to really dive into it.
I'm just picturing Harry and Kim making the poggers face at each other after getting Titus to accidentally confess information that's critical to the case.
Until I read the description, I genuinely wasn't sure if this was a real ending or not, and that really tells you everything you need to know about the game.
This is… quite a treat. Surprising to be honest, but it makes sense. It’s fascinating really. Anyways holy shit this is amazing, too bad I got here so slowly.

So long as the case is solved and Kim's not in hospice.
"He says I'm 'one of the good ones' and he solved the murder so whatever"
