What starts as a convenient amnesiac trope found in numerous role-playing games-also present in Planescape: Torment- is justified to significant effect, as the game tasks you with solving a riveting murder case while simultaneously undergoing an emotional journey of self-discovery. “Talking” to the hanged man using your overactive imagination But instead of doing that, you were in the process of a self-destructive bender, one involving a deluge of alcohol, drugs as well as emotionally scarring the citizens of Martinaise. Upon meeting your partner Kim Kitsuragi, you learn that you are an officer of the Revachol Citizens Militia (RCM) - the official police force for Revachol- and sent to Martinaise to investigate the dead body hanging in a tree. The fallout is so severe that even his semantic memory is affected, failing to recall the simplest concepts, even the currency they use. The player-character wakes up to a hangover of world-ending proportions, which completely wipes out his memory. And nowhere in the city is more volatile than a small, poverty-stricken district called Martinaise, the setting of the game. Nowhere do these conflicting ideologies clash more than in Revachol, the disgraced former capital of the world. Then there are those who dance around it, finding selfish happiness through the bottom of a bottle, watching the tequila sunset over the horizon. Some accept the mold, rationalizing to themselves that they are powerless to change the status quo.

The history, politics, and culture of Elysium loom like a shadow inviting people to accept its form-some fought against its influence, they are now silently preaching ideologies of a failed revolution five decades past others thrive in it, finding selfish wealth and happiness through abusing the corrupt system. Story-A world fully realizedĭisco Elysium is a master class in world-building.

This is a fair and unbiased review of the game. The result of removing said fluff is a complex narrative and a pure RPG experience unlike any other in the market today. It is primarily compared Planescape: Torment if it removed its combat system to focus on the good stuff-its story and dialogue.
