Disco Elysium. What really happened behind the scenes

Last time, we talked about the history of Disco Elysium and the ZA/UM studio. This time, I’m telling the same story — but from the perspective of someone who was actually there, watching it all unfold. We’ll kick things off with the very beginning — how the world of Elysium came to be — and take it right up to the most recent events. And trust me, in this episode you’ll hear plenty of behind-the-scenes stories about what really went down inside the studio.
