Disco Elysium Chinese
Shi Low: 150 MC Score: 91 (PC)
PS4:1080P 30FPS PS4 Pro：1080P 30FPS PS5:1080P 30FPS
As a small-cost indie game, in 2019, "Bliss Disco" won three awards: "Best Indie Game of the Year", "Best Narrative Game" and "Best Role-Playing Game". Through its own years of hard work and development, its developers have made such a retro CRPG that seems to run counter to the trend and is full of philosophical and literary colors. But this game is also very discouraged, the huge capacity of the game text, as well as the unique narrative, it is easy to stun the player. In addition, there are no battles throughout the game. Although there are inherent attributes, skill points, and equipment of RPGs. But in addition to the different mission options and the final ending, the game also lacks a certain degree of playability.
