Disco Elysium is a top tier game. The world-building is excellent. Any side quest you do just shows you how vibrant this dying, post failed revolutionary town actually is. Then there is Measurehead, the resident racism scholar.
Local CEO of Racism

@@georgekerscher5355 hmm who's the CEO then?

This isn't casual racism.
This is *ADVANCED* racism.
This is ranked competitive racism
Even though he’s taking about fictional ethnicities I STILL FEEL SO MUCH DISGUST BUT I CAN’T STOP TALKING TO HIM.
I need to haras 2 more people of color to get acsses to ranked(
@@brimstonesulfur5013 That's the point. It's so show that racisim and Facisim is so goddamned STUPID. Mussolini did that with the Etruscians when that culture assimilated with the Romans, rather be completly destroyed by them. The Ubermench theory was corrupted by Frederick's Nazi sister. A lot of racists are brainless toots without power. Be better.

the best part of measurehead is that you can get him to admit he was born and raised in revachol and has never seen his ancestral homeland or his "superior" people, the semenese.
he openly admits he learned all of this race-based nonsense from radio shows.
Race Enigma: It’s all just aesthetics anyway +1 conceptualisation
Measurehead is a non-cuck non-coward version of Sam Harris, who also hit the gym as opposed to sitting on his ass self-importantly and calling it "transcendental meditation". At lkeast MH says it with his chests loud and proud, meanwhile Sam peddles phrenoplogy grade racist pseudoscience at every step, and yet has Chernobyl grade self-pitying meltdowns whenever someone calls him a racist and especially when people effectively mock him for it (Eynah of Polite Conversations is doing it flawlessly). Also, radio shows beat a pseudoscientific book written by an economy major who wouldn't pass MIT statistics 101 if his life depended on it.
With high dexterity (good for shooting down corpses from trees as well ) you can do a ninja move and kick him in the head, knocking him out and pushing the button!
@@rexrip1080Or dumb luck on a 17% check.
@@badethics7542 That is how I did it the first time, by pure luck. I was one of the Qa testers on this beauty whilst I still worked in Qa sector, the whole game is amazing!
I started Disco Elysium and regret picking a Physical character, instead of a psychological one. But roundhouse kicking Measurehead is still funny as hell
I did my second playthrough as a Physical character and it really doesn't compare to a PSY/INT focused one. Entire game is dialogue, piecing together subtle cues, and saying the right things. Had Half-Light at 11 from early on hoping I could make people panic and I only got to intimidate 3-4 people.
really, i feel like you get the same amount of dialogue no matter what you choose
I roundhouse kicked him by having a really lucky roll on a psychological character which was very cool but I lost every physical interaction after that.
Everytime I play, I get to kick MH's ass even with the crappy pants. I guess my 0 Facist points are too much for him.
@@InsecureCreator the "Kung Fury" run
"racists are generally not very good examples of their race" is such a banger fucking line dude
“I AM AN EXCEPTION.”
That must make him a mega-bad example of whatever cryptic name he thinks his ethnicity is called.
@@somedudeok1451 I mean he’s 6’8” and built like a god, if he’s a bad example of his “race” I can’t imagine what others like him look like
@@thedemonhater7748 I mean he's a physical specimen to be sure, but he's also crazy racist. Anybody who calls other people "Chimeras" and "Ham Sandwich" that are *checks notes* "Waiting to be put to sleep" is not a person I want others to look to as a representation me and mine.
@@thedemonhater7748 Physical strength is all that matters to you? A god is not built at all - it's a metaphysical being that doesn't require crude muscles.
I love how confused his accent is. Sometimes he's french, the next second he forgets he's french. Then he suddenly is west african, only to drop it moments later for a german pronunciation.
That’s because that’s what all Revacholians are - an amalgam of cultures and influences. This subtly undermines his fiction of racial purity
A cauldron of degeneracy.
The voice actor is a Maroccan rapper.
@@andreasbuehler1821 Interesting. Though, I doubt that's a Maroccan accent.
@@somedudeok1451considering how specifically directed the voice actors were, I'd wager this is intentional.
I genuinely think one of Measurehead's purposes in the game is to teach the player that not all information is important
And that the easiest, most apparent solution to your problem (which in this case, assuming your character is smarter than the lorry driver you passed to get here, would be internalizing Advanced Race Theory) is not always the best. Because if you do that, congratulations! Your character is now racist, for the rest of the game. Now spend a skill point just to unlearn it, or live with the consequences of your actions.
@@thatshadowguy1005virgin race theorist vs chad alcoholic racist puncher
@@thatshadowguy1005 Wait learning about race theory doesnt make your character automatically racist in ideology does it? (Didnt do the thought idk if there is racist harry afterwards)
@@atherisGAY it absolutely does

It's amazing satire of real life racism, but the music and his theme is abseloutly amazing. It's so creepy and just makes you feel dread the longer you listen to him. You can spend over half an hour hearing him spread his hatred with such precision and confidence. It's really unsettling
I also like how it remixes the main harbor music, it's very similar in it's industrial theme, but the guitar strings are way more menacing, like in a war chant or something.
It's quite difficult to evaluate this from writer's perspective. Technically speaking, this is terrible writing. It goes against the sacred rule of brevity (the whole game does); and this is the most often cited reason for ditching the game among people who gave it a try, but sometimes it's so hilarious despite being so overdrawn that I can't help but appreciate it.
@@MrKosobi huh? You mean that the convos are too long? That's the entire point of the game, for people who like dialogue, it's like reading a good book where you make your own decisions
@@wile123456 the game could have been storytelled just as well with half the text. Itd make it much better, too, but thats just my opinion.
@@MrKosobi you don't mind the text when it's enjoyable to read and the voice acting is good
My second playthrough I pumped all my stats in the beginning in such a way that I could do the skill check where you roundhouse kick him in the face. It was worth it
I just got lucky, lol
@@angelman906 yeah iirc even with my stats the success chance was pretty low. Very satisfying to get though 😂
racism should always be ended by a roundhouse kick
@@narikobeilschmidt Indeed it should.
Same. Felt amazing lol
Vowsh listening, furiously scribbling notes so he can be a more efficient racist.

I just love that all of this is coming from what you assumed to be a common thug keeping the harbor locked down.
Seriously. IIRC you don’t get any warnings about this guy except for how tough he is - you’re ready for a thug, but nothing prepares you for the PhD level racism he lets loose on you.
@@Necroskull388 This is no simple racist talking about skin colour alone. This is a fucking master of racism, a man who spends years studying genealogy and psychology along with morphophysiology to determine the greatest race.
Didn't he admit to learning his entire race theory bs from a radio show?
@@Inhisnowhereland Yes.
But also, is that really that much different from the real-life people who get all their racial BS from Peterson, Shapiro, and Rogan? Despite the veneer, none of it's actual science anyway, so why NOT get it from radio shows and/or podcasts?
@@InhisnowherelandIdk man, he goes in great detail about the aeropagites and whatever. He probably is a genuine encyclopedia on everything concerning race in the game.
He is also comical. He admits that although he is Semanese, he's never been in the seman islands.
Ham Sandwich coloured, potato-obsessed people is the absolute best description of a fictional race of people I've ever heard, almost surpassed by degenerated humans bound to motorized scooters who listen to mariachi music to numb the existential pain of their existence. 😂😂 The writing is way too good.
They're all clearly based on real ethnicities, Mesquitos are clearly real world Mestizos for example - a mix between Iberian and Native American ethnicities that make up the bulk of Latin America. Mesque being Portugal/spain in this, that's why they are said to love stereotypical Mexican/cholo stuff like Mariachi (mex music) and hydraulics on cars.
@@jazzy4830 Yeah, I'd kinda say no shit cause the entire game is based on real countries, ethnicities, cultures etc (wow wonder why?)
That‘s a pretty sick burn towards Irish ngl.
If you press him a little bit you can get him to admit he was born in Révachol, never set foot on the Semenese islands and all he knows about them is from the radio. Good stuff.
I don't remember if that's before or after you integrate his ideas, it was 3am and I had been pretty degenerate for most of the day before.
He admits he was born in Revachol before integrating. I don't remember the radio part.
@@txthtxth 1:37 you can see it on the dialog log
In less than ten years, people are going to unironically cite Measurehead as if he's the greatest philosopher of his time. It happened to Andrew Ryan, it'll happen to him.
Wait, it happened with Andrew ryan?
@@Bigburton3 Yes, and you don't have to look hard to find it -- in fairness, Andrew Ryan was a hell of a showman, but he didn't have nearly as much dialogue nor did he require nearly as much commitment to learn about as Measurehead.
@@SlayerEndX13 I've never seen anyone online quote Andrew Ryan. Outside of one or two memes.
Andrew Ryan was basically just genderbent Ayn Rand (though the name was supposedly a coincidence), so no surprise there.

Nah thats the racist lorry driver
Kim Katsuragi needs a vacation.
I feel like he’d either spend his vacation working, or stressing over his high score in pinball.

If you can’t get enough of Measurehead you need to do the fascist questline. Then you get a whole other conversation with him, this time about sex and semen retention
this is such a funny series of sentences
@@ChrisGreenLink indeed it is
“So… women huh?” What a fucking opener to his conversation from him, it’s like being with an actual racist and they go “so… Muslims right?” Or some other bull I love it
But then i wouldn't be able to be a communist, fail an important rhetoric check at an underground book club, and ask, "So.. are women bourgeois?"
@@henlo1910 that's why you play Disco Elysium more than once!

New form of praxis: fully learn measureheads 'ideology', use whenever you encounter a race realist.

I was streaming DE casually with some friends over discord and the 'am sandwich line sent half the server's sides to heaven
I suffer from chronic eczema and Measurehead’s line “The Maun are riddled with eczema to the point where they find it impossible to smile” hit me like a 360 spin kick.
I've been there mate. Try a urea based cream for relief (Dermatique in UK, Eucerin in EU or US (I think)) and do an exclusion diet to find out what your dietary trigger is. Probably dairy. If you want to look into it more look for 'paleo autoimmune protocol'.
I also subscribed to his race theory during my playthrough, and then the game gave me racist voice options for the remainder of the game. It was both funny and concerning because of who I had become.
And to think all you did was listen, I love the unforseen consequences in that game.
You can be racist as fuck to Kim, if you’re a complete monster.
I think that the game gives you the racist voice option regardless of you subscribing to his race theory, because I've declined internalizing it and I still got those racist opinions as possible things to say, because they are available as part of the 4 main political alignments in this world - fascism, communism, moralism and ultraliberalism. You usually also get a 5th apolitical option, but that just leads you towards becoming a moralist too, that's the illusion of being apolitical. I was a hardcore communist throughout the playthrough, but despite that I was still always able to randomly start leaning fascist if I wanted to and the game always gave me a choice to change my mind.
@@Altermerea i switch between apolitical and hardcore communist. Apolitical whenever the communist option is just "commit genocide"
You can just forget thoughts you've internalised if you don't like what they are
What the CEO of racism actually look like.
And you need high stats if you want to punch him.
Haha i had low stats but i rolled boxcars so it worked out anyways.
The perfect mix of Elon and Peterson
I didn't need high stats. I just got lucky lol. Still disproved his point that he's superior though, which I guess was also the point: that he's a silly fuck who is too full of himself.
Ironically, al-ghul helps, I'd recommend commadore red.
Not really,theres a chain of events where just talking to the scab down below will increase tremendously the chance of beating measurehead,but i forgot how to trigger it
This character is such an amazing caricature of fascist pseudointellectuals and "scientific" racism.
I have met online reactionaries who talk EXACTLY like him.
Ironically the one thing these types are superior at is saying really stupid shit with fancy vocabulary.
Well....I hope not EXACTLY like him, that accent's pretty powerful.
The progressive far-left are the only fascist pseudointellectuals who spout "scientific" racism.
he reminds me of whatifalthist tbh.
Hes not wrong about anything
"In this video, i drop an H-bomb. Biiiig one; hard 'S'."
A real H-bomber guy.
Petition to replace Cracker with Ham Sandwich?
Only for the Bri'ish.
This conversation with very high enciclopedia and logic is even funnier
Do the skill checks just prove him wrong?
@@Linkard When Measurehead started talking phrenology, I pointed out that he has a skull of a criminal. He agreed, but continued talking regardless.
@@Linkard Yes for example encyclopedia points out that Measurehead talks about thing that supossedly happened thoushads of years before recorded history
@@ghurcbghurcb „the conversation has moved on”
@@Linkard Yeah, Logic and Encyclopedia make a point about how his craniology isn't the example of perfection, saying that he has the jaw of a criminal (to which the babes say that they love it) and that his lobes are too long, to which he retorts that ears aren't part of the science. Iirc, Logic is the one that tells you that there is no shot that he met his ancestors, because he's talking about stuff from the previous millennium. You cannot really make him budge with those two points, even if you make him admit that he is technically from Revachol, he just moves on and ignores your points, but they distract him enough to let you land the roundhouse kick, or at least give you enough points to maybe land it even with shit stats.

- Vaush in any debate with a Serbian
What's even better about Disco Elysium is they don't play into obvious stereotypes of these ideologies or tropes
Apparently in the fascist play through you can conduct a long interview with him.
That's true. I forced myself through a fascist playthrough and it was completely different in a lot of ways. There's a side to some of the characters that aren't available unless you do a shitty, abusive fascist run (preferably with high physical stats, used liberally). Being endlessly cruel to Kim is painful, though.
5:45 when I realized that he was talking about the “Dutch”, I started to die laughing!
Oranjie is basically orange like their football shirt.

Who would Gary be, I wonder?
@@Kalevdraus Whoever you want dude
@@TheBasedGreeg Kim honestly gives the best breakdown of what a micro-aggression is. It should help anyone understand more covert types of racism better.
This game honestly has the best writing I’ve seen in any game, and some of the best worldbuilding too
All his believe of racial superiority is based on his own traits.
I am semenese so they must be the superior race.
I have this shape of head, so this must be the headshape of superior people.
I don´t eat potatos, so inferior races must be the one who eat potatos. And so on
And because he is the smartest and strongest in his environment he gets those misconceptions confirmed every day. It would be sad if it wasn´t so funny
You act like this too when you're doing a fascha playthrough.
Your ex-something ruined your life, so obviously wömen as a whole are ruining everyone's lives.
You peaked in high school (possibly as a gym teacher), so obviously things were better in the Good Old Days and you need to turn back the wheels of time to fix everything.

I like how Measurehead is a Russian Viking Hotep
He's clearly got a french accent.
@@markusa5293 Dover's talking about the philosophies Measurehead's parodying. There's bit of Hieromunk Illiador's anti-Asian & anti-Middle Eastern racism, a diverse range of Baltoscandian, Uraloscandian & Germanoscandian racist ideology, and Hothep racism, which is the most overt reference.
How dare you call him a bloody Kojko(slav), He's never touched a potato in his life. He's clearly just a regular Hotep considering his Semenese background and North African VA, Not some Katlan (Scandi) or north Konigsteiner(German).
Fucking FINALLY Vaush listens to The Theory. Gosh
BE CALM, HAM SANDWICH
The line at 13:16 is personal experience, his girlfriend is from Graad and he admits he can't get it up, so he uses race theory to hand wave his own impotence lol.
This game has all kinds of racists. Measurehead is the most extreme, but the racist lorry driver and Gary are bad too. Though Gary at least apologizes for his „Yellow Man“ remark.
But the most painful is Lena. If you talk to her about the Green Ape she implies that Kim is more related to the Cryptid and doesn’t necessarily have to be considered a human. She doesn’t treat other ethnicities badly, but she has racist views nonetheless. It’s really sad, especially makes me wonder how Kim even stayed sane in such a world.
Garry is your average 4chan racist, extremely submissive and fun to bully... but Lena, god it hurts... the biggest betrayal in the game...
YOUR MOUTH MOVES BUT THE ONE THAT SPEAKS IS AL GHUL
Measurehead is legit one of the best lolcow architypes on the internet. Incredibly racist and purposefully pretentious but the end of the day the core of his ideology is literally nothing but vibes.

There is a novel called Sacred and Terrible Air that comes before Disco Elysium, same planet different timeperiod. It isnt in English yet though.
From what I recall, there is a reason that the founder of ZA/UM became known for their game and not for his novel.
When I first met him in game I couldn't stop laughing at how cartoonishly fascist he is
Not necessarily a fascist by what he says alone, while fascism often relies on provoking racial tensions to gain widespread support and also has historically found itself in opposition to communism, Measurehead has very little to say about his actual idealised political structure like many theorists. Though he would probably support a fascist movement if it subscribed to his specific racial views.
You can say what you want about Measurehead, at least he's not a liberal.. I think.
Shoe on Head likes that.
@@Altermerea Shoeonhead would simp for him because he's a psychopath and she's a liberal
@@Altermerea Bruh don't mention that, Shoe would be all over him if he were real lmao
@@anitaremenarova6662 Shoe IS Measurehead's babe
One of my favourite things is that he's clearly a representation of the thing real-life white supremacists are endlessly afraid of: A 7-foot black gigachad who's fucking a harem of subservient white women while talking about how the era of the white man is over, but he's also a stand-in for those exact same white supremacists. Horse shoe theory confirmed true, I guess?
Also, the line about Semenese men not being able to maintain an erection in the face of the potato stench of the Kojko woman never fails to make me guffaw. It's so good.
Man I hope ZA/UM make more games. This style of writing and the themes are so incredible.

Unfortunately, it seems they are in the middle of some kind of court case. So we'll see.

Nice to see the new Activision diversity officer in action.
I remember watching this live and uhh... I still can't properly comprehend this guy even the second time around and apparently that's the point.
Admittedly the first time round I was too distracted by the music, this shit is pretty great.
I think he was purposely wirtten in all caps just to overwhelm the player with the sea of racist rethoric and jargon this man is spewing. Really drive the point that this man is insane
All that the terms he uses are legit in-game terms, it's just that his theory is so convoluted that you do need a lot of background information to understand it, which the player doesn't have

If Kanye never watched 29 Jump Street he might have ended up here. He did mention Al Gul on Alex Jones.

Disco Elysium is one of the games of all time, the characters are there, the plot is written, and the world exists, it is truly a game.
Don't forget that the characters are.
Is the gameplay?
@@iz2333 no
Just realised measureheads portrait is off colour, every other side characters have realistic colours and backgrounds, but he has off colours and a weird background.
Looks like US political posters actually.
@@FelisImpurrator ahh the implications of that are all too clear lol
Well, there is ONE really rich character with an exceptional color palette in his portrait…
The backgrounds on every character represent some aspect of their personality and the messier they are, the more deranged the character is.
Idiot Doom Spiral's reality is so twisted from the constant drinking he does that even his face is represented with shiny colors and it looks like its melting. Every Union-related character has a proper red portrait with a white rectangle/square, but Evrat's is inverted and melted down, so on.
Measurehead is beyond all reason and sanity, so its only fair that his portrait is barely legible and only a crude resemblance of his in-game model.
Least racist vaushite
I was most annoyed by the French accent but once the satire was explained I absolutely loved it lmfao
The CEO of racism
I once saw someone post a picture of Measurehead with the caption "the world's first professor of Uncritical Race Theory"
I love how his groupie has like...no clue what he’s talking about at all, like it’s clear she’s kinda just *there*
This game was so good it made me want to play other similar games. I recently played the book dune. The gameplay on that one was truly something, still no Disco Elysium, but good none the less.
Planescape Torment is usually the game people recommend if you want something similar to disco elysium.
Lots and lots of reading there.
The game is shallower than it thinks it is, as often happens
Oh cool French sargon
Disco is a good game, but none of the emotions it gives me are good.
Really? For me, the journey was one of hope (small spoilers ahead). The whole story was about finding yourself after you, the main character, hit rock bottom. In that process, you learn about the town and its people, which serve to act as a metaphor for your own journey. Along the way, on side quests you find people trying to make the world and this town better in the little ways they think they can and you even help them (like the church quest, the Cryptozoologist, and more, those are just the one I remember the most). Then by the end it's like you've changed, you've grown as a person and managed to solve the murder (and if you did the side quests those become relevant). So while none of the emotions we good per se, I felt that it was a start to progress. I felt that by the end of the game I left a positive impact on the town and the town on my character aswell.
@@hi__im_zack4890 Well, if I am to be fair and give credit where credit is due, I haven't finished the game yet. That said, for starters, a lot of the gameplay dynamic reminds me of a difficult time I had in my life, the whole questioning your own senses and mind to get a grip of reality, I felt that in the flesh and the portrait in the game was nearly flawlessly done, too close of reality for comfort.
That said, I don't have anything bad to say about the game, it throws some hard pills to swallow. That dialogue tree with Measurehead along with the soundtrack felt so exhausting but also, so very real, even the women surrounding and agreeing with everything he said. The game clearly tried to make a point and delivered it perfectly.
I still remember the dialogue tree that made me stop because it felt so real (*spoilers:* It was the one you get after managing to open the hidden compartment on Harry's clipboard.), even after passing like 3 different skill checks previously.
"You tried to hold onto something, anything, but there was nothing left to hold onto."
I don't remember a game making me feel like a piledriver hit me so hard before. It's a beautiful game but, I really can't recommend it to anyone I know is going through some tough times.
@@lisarox4221 I know what you mean, it's definitely a rough game. And tbh it never stops being a rough game, but there are little bits of light throughout that make it all worth it, in a dark sort of way. Sorry to spoil the ending for you a little, though.
I mean, the ending is hopeful even if the rest of the game is pure despair.
I didn‘t know the word pedestry. (Not an native English speaker.) Suddenly the Croatian slur for gays has a new layer to it.
When I first got to measurehead I just kept restarting the game with diffrent personalities just to talk to him more

@@notavailable6460 yup, the team are from Estonia, also, I only caught that last fact cuz I'm from Latvia... I can't remember who said that tho, I don't think it was Joyce, maybe it was Encyclopedia...
@@notavailable6460 just looked it up cuz I couldn't let it go, from the fandom article on Graad: ENCYCLOPEDIA - Igaunija -- a god-forsaken (and tiny) territory in Graad that has not once, but twice wasted its independence on microfascism. The less said about Igaunija the better. Matter of fact, let's stop saying things about it right now and continue what we were doing.
@walterl322 I love that, wtf are the other nations in D E based off? There a online?
Also hello Baltic person! I'm from as you can guess America. Funny to think you're all real!
@@notavailable6460 well, sometimes it does feel like this part of the world exists in it's own little bubble...
I can give you my opinion of what each country's counterpart is in DE, cuz I could talk about that stuff all day... so Mundi is obviously western, central and southern Europe, Sur la Clef is pretty obviously France and EPIS is the stand in for the EU, from that we can also extrapolate that Kedra is Turkey, since it's position as a potential EU member state is pretty unique, in the sense that it's not gonna happen... Sur la Clef is also kind of representative of Germany's dominant economic and cultural position in the EU, although Germany itself is represented by Gottwald and Konigstein (another reference of the french anarchist Konigstein, also known as Ravachol), I've seen people say that Gottwald is western Germany and Konigstein is eastern Germany, but I think it's more upper vs lower Germany, it's all speculation of course... Oranje is the Netherlands/Belgium and Krenel somewhat resembles the Belgian colonist forces, although in large part it also resembles Blackwater... Mesque is Spain, Meteo is Greece because of it's poverty, even while being a 1st world nation, as well as all of the names, it's founding party is Ecclesiastes and it's capital is Thylakos-by-Pisantic, very obviously Greek... Vesper may be Italy and Messina is, I have zero idea, most of what I have to go by is that Vesper-Messina was a dual kingdom and that Vesper is located on a peninsula, which is not much to go by... Ubi Sunt? is weird, literally has a question mark there, there's also Iraesh, inside of it, which is Ireland, so maybe it's the UK? They're also being consumed by the pale, meaning that they'd have to be on the outskirts of Mundi... there are 6 more isolas, but I think this comment is long enough😂
This game really makes you *feel* like a race realist. 10/10
With the exaggerated swagger of a Semenese teen.

If Viwsh ever debates again and doesn't call his opponent a "h*m s*ndwich" (notice the quotation marks RUclips) I'm unsubscribing.
The three racists were specifically the main reason I wanted to see your reaction to this game.
