This then led toyetanotherlawsuit.
Three studios led by former ZA/UM employees have been announced in a single day.
None of them will make another Disco Elysium.
I can let all of this slide, because its expensive to create high-quality, handcrafted items.
Its basically gamer couture that supports small creators, and I can get down with that.
But guys, I cannot get withthe Disco Elysium plastic bag.
Its worth noting that the Atelier was started in 2021, before the schism.
The bag was listed last year.
Art Or Cash Grab?
Ive been trying to wrap my mind about this since I read about it.
The carrier bag is modeled after the bag Harry uses to collect bottles that he later trades for cash.
Its basically an ultra-durable plastic bag it’s possible for you to wear over your shoulder.
It costs 159 euro.
Five Disco Elysium successors, Jeremy?
Ive been trying to justify this to myself.
The material is extra fancy, so it wont break.
You could, and Imreallyreaching here, consider it a sort of art project, maybe?
Its the commodification of lower class aesthetics into couture, fuelling consumerism.
It is, at its very core, against the entire spirit of the game itself.
Its clear that ZA/UM isnt ZA/UM anymore.
We need to look elsewhere for our unashamedly political games from now on.
Maybe one of the spiritual successors will provide it.
