The DOWNFALL of Disco Elysium - A ZA/UM and Successors Documentary
Please enjoy my deep dive into the entire ZA/UM situation from the start of the studio up to the several spiritual successor spinoffs. Yeah, this one took an actual eternity to make and I'm not sure how the monetization and stuff is gonna go so just give it a like if you enjoyed. I'll try to keep the comments updated if I notice any mistakes I made or anyone has any corrections, so just let me know if you spot any. Regardless, this was a really fun project to work on and I hope you enjoy. Kaderblast out.
