Disco Elysiums studio ZA/UM has been the subject of a nasty drama in recent months, with it ousting the games key developers in an allegedly very dishonest scheme. But everyone wants a piece of Disco Elysiums fame, and its creators have a chance to make something similar, albeit from different teams.After the conflict, DE devs were scattered around and opened 3 new studios Longdue, Dark Math Games, and Summer Eternal at the same time at that, a truly bizarre coincidence. But it doesnt end here: ZA/UM and Longdue have both released trailers for their upcoming projects the same day.ZA/UMs PROJECT [C4] is a genre-defining large-scale RPG, a mind-warping story of espionage and team-building in an original yet achingly familiar setting where you play as an Operant, locked in a vicious, clandestine struggle for truth and influence. Whatever you think about the company now, the teaser is intriguing and will most likely appeal to Disco Elysium lovers with its weird visuals.ZA/UMZA/UMZA/UMHowever, the internet remembers all, so the comment section under the video is not gentle with ZA/UMs feelings.We brought you Disco Elysium I wish I had the confidence to be this brazen, wow, said one viewer.Who is this we exactly? The Estonian cultural movement whose name and logo you appropriated, while making sure you thoroughly destroyed its spirit, is what brought us Disco Elysium, added another.ChatGPT, generate me a paragraph imitating the writing style of the Estonian cultural association ZA/UM. Make it sound like it was written by a freshman philosophy student. Gesture vaguely at political themes without saying anything substantial. Be sure to include words like conspiracy and ideology, market research indicates that our audience really likes those,' commented a disgruntled YouTube user.Not surprisingly, Longdues teaser fared much better.Its Hopetown is a psychological RPG where your choices reshape reality itself. The trailer is brought to life by the deep voice of Disco Elysiums narrator Lenval Brown. The visual style looks more like that epic story than what ZA/UM presented, for better or for worse.LongdueLongdueLongdueBuilt on the legacy of classic isometric RPGs, Hopetown is for those who crave deep, intelligent, story-first experiences.Longdue doesnt have ZA/UMs budgets, so the game will start crowdfunding soon, and Im sure the campaign will be successful based on what viewers have to say.It looks promising especially when you compare it to the slop that calls itself Disco Elysium successor and also released trailer today. You know which one Im talking about, one comment reads.Comparing these comments to [ZA/UMs] is hilarious. Hearing that voice again. Man. I love it. Cant wait to play this someday, shared another.We also need to keep an eye on Dark Math Games with its detective RPGXXX Nightshiftfeaturing a unique companion dynamic and Summer Eternals cultural megaproject, a role-playing game with complexity and ambition worthy to rival our wretched and wonderful world.Stay tuned and join our80 Level Talent platformand ournew Discord server, follow us onInstagram,Twitter,LinkedIn,Telegram,TikTok, andThreads,where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.Source link The post Disco Elysium Developers, Current and Former, Reveal Trailers for Their Projects at the Same Time appeared first on CG SHARES.
