The fans of "alcoholic deadbeat cop living in a post-soviet nation desperately trying to survive and find meaning" story will love our generic spy thriller, totally why they read multiple books worth of text, it's so they can self-insert as the genius detective!

The lack of inspiration from the title is also funny to read. To go from "Disco Elysium" to "ZERO PARADES DEAD SPIES" is going from subtle lighting to fuckin christmas lights everywhere.

People who fundamentally don't understand why it was good and think it's just that people like Red Scare esque vibes and think they can capture more of the same lightning in a bottle with the standard Cold War spy story formula?

All that fighting over the studio just to end up as the Hallmark of games
