I finished ATOM RPG not too long ago was looking for a new RPG to play. So far I’ve read the Disco Elysium : Beginner’s Guide on Steam but I was wondering if there was anything else I should be aware of.
I will be playing on the Steam Deck. I don’t think that matters much because according to ProtonDB the game works fine.
Also I was curious if it has any of the issues like I had playing LA Noire where you are occasionally stuck looking for a needle in a haystack or running into ambiguous dialogue that where you can fail and it prevents you from progressing with a character or situation. I am less worried about the latter because it seems to have a system where you can save anywhere and dialogue options are written out instead of LA Noire’s prompt system.
Put more than a single point into Psyche and Physique on your first playthrough, unless you’re okay with the protagonist being frustratingly fragile.
Aside from that, build your character however you want. I fully agree with what the others say about going with the flow and failing forward. You don’t need to minmax.
