Will you be the drunken, burnt-out mess you begin the story as, or will you try to forge a path to redemption? Of course, it’s all told with wit, panache, and humour, too. The story is free-form, and you can choose to approach it however you like. It offers an endlessly complex skill system that eschews the traditional values of strength, charisma, and intelligence in favour of concepts like “savoir-faire” or the brilliantly weird “Inland Empire”. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic IIĭisco Elysium is a rich, detailed political parable wrapped in an excellent simulation of tabletop roleplaying.
