Probably one of my favourite characters from the game. I really like Joyce, Sunday Friend and Trant, for their larger Moralintern worldbuilding.
There’s just something about this guy, so alluring, quite so strange and sort of a beautiful mug.
He’s based off of Tarmo Juristo, real Estonian activist, and Tarmo is also (Like Trant) a Martial Arts enthusiast (although Tarmo the guy might not be a recovering addict)
I just have so many thoughts about this guy

Not an RPG, not “hall of fame” worthy, its milquetoast takes on politics reek of cowardice and fear of taking a stand.It became popular because ensouled humans have been starved of anything that resembles art. They will gorge down and exhalt anything that looks like art, like a famished man will eat worms and grass.

Trant is ok. Just ok. There doesn't seem to be much to look at with Trant, I don't know how you can have so many thoughts. His purpose in the game is very simple (and fundamental)I've also given it a lot of thought and I don't see the Moralintern as the villains the game makes them out to be. That is, the game projects this evil veneer onto the moralintern- and only presents caricatures on their behalf (the sunday friend and the very rich light-bending guy) and codes the organization as the puppeteers behind All The Bad Things, but it doesn't provide any rationale for their "evil." This transnational political organization of humanist values, parliamentary democracy, and incremental progress through technocratic governance is Le Evil because...??? Because bureaucratic authoritarianism can only be exclusive to the moralintern? Somehow despite making arguments about all the other sides of the political spectrum, it just doesn't make one about the Moralintern- it just fictions the Moralintern into existence, plays the villain music about them whenever it's on-screen, and that's it.I'm also lost on their intention with Joyce and Evrart Claire. When you get past the mask that Joyce wears, she doesn't get weaker, she gets stronger- she could save Martinaise, if not Revachol, if she had any fire of revolution in her. Evrart Claire has a fire for revolution, but beyond that, he's nothing but ugly underneath. I know it all had to be intentional choices by the authors to make them this way, but the contrast just leaves me scratching my head at what they were trying to say.

Every single character is a monomaniac who expounds on a political concept without a shred of personality. There's no downtime, only a factional worldview.

I played and finished Disco Elysium when it came out, and I cannot remember this character at all. Is this a shaggy dog joke?

About this game, how can anyone sympathize with any of the female characters? Klaasje is the worst case but even Harry's ex was a piece of shit. Harry's addicted to the al-gul because his child was murdered and he has to live with the person he loved the most in the world being the one who did it. It also says a lot about how she was when you finally let her leave but she still tries to get the last word in.

For me, it's René, the superior racisté.
But for real, in the end he just seems sort of noble in ways that Measurehead could never be.
I think it's this idea of sacrifice for his country that Measurehead could merely talk about but old René has actually done which sets them apart.

Reminder that if you check the medicine cabinet for Klaasje’s gift after she escapes depending on your choices it’s implied Kim gets convinced by Harry to start doing speed.

this whole game reads like an ironic lefty rant that somehow still manages to sound smug

Is Kim the worst straight man/party member in RPG history? He just lets you drug around and fuck things up, never tells you no, or anything. I actually don't understand why he's in the game, there's no combat for him to help in and he doesn't provide any party bonuses. He's not even funny or entertaining.

It was barely a game with a small amount of content. The only reason it generates discussion is it was a libtarded game that didn’t flop.

This game is utterly insufferable if you've ever read one (1) book in your entire life

Isn't this the "game" with no combat?
