the image of dora/dolores and kim on the balcony, the two people harry deified in his desperation to latch onto someone to help him feel "sane"... augh.
It's astonishing, but also rather sweet, that the version of the detective we're seeing here is a relatively successful and well-adjusted one. That guy drenched in sweat, getting thrown around and menaced and having about a hundred different crises? That's him *doing well*.
Harry at his best feels like you're running around a kitchen making sure three different cakes are made And then at the end, you get to set the alarms and let them bake. And after judgement of the self as the cakes are made, the game is done and you have now got 3 cakes. And the icing and decor is when you think about the game after
Tbf, when you check out your car with Kim it is one of the voices saying "Nope, say no to this." Volition is definitely working in Harrier's best interest usually though.
@@Tuskbumper well, it technically still is trying to protect him. volition is purely about trying to keep harry sane, so it warns you at almost every turn that you are about to have a very bad time, and harry realizing his car is that car is a rough moment for him
@@Tuskbumper It's about Harry believing that he isn't that down bad yet. That there's a chance. So he's thinking... "No. This just didn't happen," in an attempt to believe he's better than this. That he didn't drunk drive his squad car into the sea.
I just finished the game yesterday, I'm starting to process what I lived, and this is making me fucking EMOTIONAL Watched it ten times, actually cried at the Dolores / Kim scene You gave him his halo... sob
Considering how Dora and Harry's relationship went down and how wrecked Harry is in dealing with the emotional fallout of it for 15+ years that might be bad a thing.

„Kim, that was f***** Disco!“ „Indeed Lieutenat, it was … Disco. But please stop rewatching it. We have an case to solve, and i think this has nothing to do with it.“ „Oh. C‘mon Kim! Just one more time.“ „Fine…“ * Whistles quietly to the music*

"babe are you okay this is the fifth time you've watched the good life - disco elysium animatic today" i truly cannot get this off my mind. absolutely phenomenal work. i actually saw this before i played the game but i recently played and beat the game and it took on a whole new depth. amazing
Some of these sequences are seriously just inspired. Like when he's spun around between all the different characters, or when Authority bursts out and sends him spinning down into the space all his voices live. You can tell they'd look absolutely amazing fully animated.
I can't get over how good it is honestly. I keep watching all these Disco Elysium vids and going in with low expectations, because how the fuck can some dude on youtube properly capture the things this game made me feel, then by the end I'm pointing at the screen like Leo DiCaprio saying "ohh this guy gets it" without a hint of irony. Feels like the perfect post-script to a perfect game, can't believe I put off playing it for two years.
This is what I'd expect from a Disco Elysium movie. This would be a scene that plays after he got shot, and he's thinking about everything that lead him to this point
The scene where Raphael Ambrosius Costeau faces off the Scab leader and it switches back and forth to the tribunal while RAC has the spirit bomb is just perfection. Great job on this!
"Volition: The past and future are staring at you, Harry. One's mournfully, wanting you too be strong enough to let go, but not wanting to release its hold on you. It's selfish like that.

Excellent work all around. I really love the whole sequence of the different characters picking up the lyrics of the song. With Cuno and Cunoess shoving Harry around like cocky villains in a musical stage-play, and the spin-around with Titus turning into a dance with Klaasje, and again into a reassuring gesture from Kim. So many great little character details and clever references to highlights from the story.
I want you to know that everyone, not just me, but everyone in my house has seen and loved this animatic so much that we replicate some of it whenever someone plays this song. Mouthing along, the little spins, whatever we can actually manage lmao. God this animatic is incredible, one of the best I’ve ever seen on RUclips. Holy fuck, man.
This is my favourite animatic of all time. Amazing artstyle and characterization of the characters. The song you chose is perfectly fitting for disco Elysium and my god the scene with the hanged harry, with volition comforting him is amazing. You've got some real talent there, keep up the good work
seeing this actually wants me to play the hole game again, the nostalgia of the inner monologs and kim demeanor to your entices, even f*cking cuno, thanks for making me remember, and amazing animation as always, take care
This was fantastic, I especially loved the part where the scab leader transitions into Authority and then we get this psychedelic scene with the skills. And that scene with Dolores Dei and Kim, the way you use the moon toafch his portrait, really inspired. Loved this, can't wait to replay 50 more times
finished DE a couple of weeks ago and am falling down the fanart rabbithole... this is fucking fantastic. the bit with dora and kim looking down on the good detective made me straight up pause the video and say "fuck you" to the screen LMAO
I really love this animation. I think you guys managed to perfectly connect the song and visual component. I'll be honest, I never played Disco Elysium, but I could just feel that dark, irredeemable, but in the same time inspiring and funny vibe of a person living exiting adventure in a grim, crazy world.
Mate, I can not recommend Disco Elysium enough. It's like an interactive novel written bij David Lynch where every failure is just as interesting as the successes, where every character is interesting in their own way, there's hours upon hours of fantastic dialogue all fully voice-acted and it all looks like a beautifully grimy painting. If you have any inclination toward psychedelic storytelling and off-kilter literature, it'll be one of the best gaming experiences you ever have.
@@marcokuis18320 hours in this game now, I'm about to investigate on who's the sniper and find Ruby if I can. It is amazingly interesting to explore this world and get to know all these people, seems like anyone not just who they seem and have at least few layers of personality. And... I can't shake off the feeling that something is wrong, especially after seeing dream section, like it is really delusional. And Klaasie, I eccidently made a restart just now and overheard her speech in the end of the failed seducing route: "It's gonna suck for you latter when you have to interrogate me", " And for the record: no, I didn't do it" - at the beginning, she tells us about the stat check we gonna need to make later and about her innocence... Does she... Openly spoils us the plot? Wth? So exciting!
Just yesterday while I played this game I thought to myself that Shayfer James had very disco elysium vibes and I made a mental note to check if something matched!! We had the same vision that's so crazy lmaoo - amazing animatic too, I'm replaying the scene with Kim and Dolores in my head on rotation
I keep watching this animatic over and over. Not only does the song fit, but the movement, the angles, the scene transitions are all so well done. My favorite part is the moment we realize this is all in his mind as Authority sends Harry sliding down into his subconscious.
WOW this fucking riiiiippppppped!!!! Wow really I can't speak more highly of this from an animation perspective. I am SO impressed!! That Kim and Harry design is like THE perfect stylization for them - it is ridiculously appealing. The climax of the video is truly fucking inspiring - the quality jump to the hyperreal really emphasizes the pain you KNOW is coming in a way that mimics the game itself - like whenever Harry smells something apricot, I was panicking and shaking my head no at the pain I knew, indeed, was coming. The shot of Kim and Dolores sharing a cigarette made me OUGH aloud. Love you.
Right? Harry looks perfectly vulnerable while still being charming and Kim still has that stoic vibe while letting some of his cold facade slip just enough that you can tell he and Harry are close
I rewatch this several few weeks bc I just can’t stop coming back to it. The song fits perfect, your style is creative and funny but also so heartfelt? The shot with Kim and Dolores Dei is so haunting and awesome I’m in awe.
I can't believe Yellow made one for Disco Elysium and RUclips only decided JUST NOW to recommend it to me. You took a lot of artistic liberty on this from the transitions and the depictions of the skills, I'm super impressed.
WOAH that transition into the internal makeup of the skills, and how Harry views those he loves... I got chills as he fell into himself, literally, and teared up when Volition held him steady against the disco ball. The part of you that loves yourself... This is INCREDIBLE I could see how this vision could be smoothed so clearly!!! Fantastic work
This is so incredible???? The transition with the skills and Authority had my jaw on the *floor*. I've been meaning to get back to work on my own video and this was so inspiring to see. The pops of colour on the skills! The glitchy movements before Authority pops out! The little bounces of movement on the characters to keep the scene full of motion! You've done an amazing job and I hope you got joy out of making it! Thank you for sharing it for us to see
HOLY SHIT!!! this is so good, thank you so much for this animatic! I loved the spin dance with Titus/Klaasje, and Kim, and how you incorporated Harry's different skills into this animation - Encyclopedia catching Harry with its book and then spitting him out was the part when I thought "wow, I love the creative thought that went into this" Also, Harry looking up to see Dora lighting Kim's cigarette - I wonder what this alludes to? Her passing the burden of loving Harry and dealing with his unstable personality to Kim?
SPOILERS AHED: Wow... Good interpretation. And she have shining lungs, but Kim have halo. Becuse he have patience and compassion that she never have... She have only love (in DE lungs are symbol of love). But as Dolores Dei, she is long gone from Harrys life.
@@michatuodziecki2079 You're idolizing Kim, just as Harry did with Dora. My interpretation of this is that both Kim and Dolores Dei are together in his nightmare because they're both people that he sees as better than they really are. Dora with two golden lungs and Kim with a halo.
@@carlwheezer1640 Kim is not perfect but he really try to help Harry and he really can be his friend. Even when Harry destroy that song, Kim still support him.
@@michatuodziecki2079 I don't think it's right to say that Dora didn't have compassion, or patience. You can literally call her in the middle of the night, while she's in bed with her lover, 6 years after you two broke apart. She doesn't get angry, she doesn't immediately hang up, instead, she indulges you. She waits until you go through whatever you're going through, until you say everything you want to say, until you're finally ready to hang up. That takes INCREDIBLE amounts of patience and compassion. There are many ways to handle someone you've moved on form, and Dora is taking the most careful, caring route.
@@michatuodziecki2079 they weren't right for each other, they fought often, they kept breaking up and getting together again, and it's implied that Dora left Harry because of his issues with substance abuse and his unstable mental condition. You could say it was a shitty move, but people like Harry can drag you down with you if you're not careful. Even people who have maintained a strictly professional relationship with him have been left scarred by him, like Jean and Judit. If Dora prioritized her own mental health and happiness over his, no one has the right to blame her for that. Hopefully, post game Harry is going to grow into a much more healthy person than his past self was. And yeah, I hope he doesn't end up idolizing Kim as "the pillar" of his existence. Forcing Kim to take care of him lest he self-destructs. Harry has to find the strength to just... Love himself. And not attach that self-love to someone else
My god, you renditions of his inner voices are STUNNING! THE SIMPLIFIED CHARACTER DESIGNS ARE SO COOL!! THIS WAS AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!!
OH. MY. GOD. This is the masterpiece! The work of art, man, I really like it. This animatic is so stylish and conveying the atmosphere, I am really delighted
I'm in love! The dream sequence was obviously the highlight, but everything else was on point. Particulary loved the scene of Kim and Harry realising the car they're waiting to thaw out is his. I hope you make more stuff like this!
Every time i watch this i get emotional remembering that despite having all the bonuses for Kim reeeaally trusting me he still took a bullet for me, and i had to wake up looking at -SPOLIER-'s stupid face instead
This is so, so, so wonderful. Your animations always are, and it's been a delight watching how your skill expands and change with time! It's especially exciting you see do something for my favorite game. Congrats to this Harry for making the roof jump with both his shoes and pants on, too.
Oh, and can I just say that I love that you didn't just follow the plot scene by scene as many other montages do, but did your own interpretation (which also meant you didn't give too much of the plot away, if I watched this before playing I wouldn't feel it spoiled anything at all, I'd just wonder what it all meant).
I cannot get over how god damned FANTASTIC this is. Your depiction of the Skills here are phenomenal and you make the game gel so perfectly with the song. I'm in awe
The way I've just had this animatic on repeat through out the whole of finals week really says something about me. It's just such a good motivator, but also with the added context of Disco Elysium the melancholy of it is amplified.
I don't even know where to start. This is nothing short of inspirational. I'm just going to start ranting. First, oh my gosh I love how you draw Harry especially- it's such a great stylization that really captures his goofiness, and I love how expressive you make him. Also Tidus looks sick (and ofc Kim is also amazing). Along that same vein, I'm really impressed with how recognizable you made Kortenaer (which I just found out is spelled like that instead of "Korneater"). Second, I really love that verse with the deserter (there's an eagle in the attic with a semi-automatic), it fits really well, and that moment with Jean too. And then at 1:23 that rotation is so awesome and the moment with everyone interacting with Harry is so animated and lively and expressive and aaaaaaah! The spin with Klaasje, Kim being firm and supportive?!?!?!? It's perfect. And then of course Kortenaer going off, again fits so well with the audio and bringing out this side of Harry being fearful and uncertain? And then??? Hoooooooly shit just when I thought it couldn't get any better, you break out the dreamscape reality-bending trip inside Harry's brain! It's done pure justice to just the concept and overall vibe of Disco Elysium. That sort of thing is the key- no, the DISCO-- in all of this. Anyways, I'm so glad you made this so I could squeal about it and also it helped motivate me to get off my butt and plan my own DE animation I've been wanting to do for a year. CONCEPTUALIZATION [ Legendary : SUCCESS ] - Damn. That's impressive.
the image of dora/dolores and kim on the balcony, the two people harry deified in his desperation to latch onto someone to help him feel "sane"... augh.

Really does feel like Dora is passing on the torch of being the object of Harry's affection to Kim.

@@marcokuis18320 hours in this game now, I'm about to investigate on who's the sniper and find Ruby if I can. It is amazingly interesting to explore this world and get to know all these people, seems like anyone not just who they seem and have at least few layers of personality. And... I can't shake off the feeling that something is wrong, especially after seeing dream section, like it is really delusional. And Klaasie, I eccidently made a restart just now and overheard her speech in the end of the failed seducing route: "It's gonna suck for you latter when you have to interrogate me", " And for the record: no, I didn't do it" - at the beginning, she tells us about the stat check we gonna need to make later and about her innocence... Does she... Openly spoils us the plot? Wth? So exciting!
Just yesterday while I played this game I thought to myself that Shayfer James had very disco elysium vibes and I made a mental note to check if something matched!! We had the same vision that's so crazy lmaoo - amazing animatic too, I'm replaying the scene with Kim and Dolores in my head on rotation
THIS IS RIDICULOUS COOL WHAT
anyway this was reccomended to me when I was halfway thru the game and I'm so glad i waited until I finished to watch :0
An excellent, well-assembled portrayal of Disco Elysium, both its story and the complex and tortured internal landscape of its protagonist. Well done.
I love how you captured the traits of every character both in their appearance, movements and expressions. Amazing work!
It’s always funny when animatics get more views than the original music video
I keep watching this animatic over and over. Not only does the song fit, but the movement, the angles, the scene transitions are all so well done. My favorite part is the moment we realize this is all in his mind as Authority sends Harry sliding down into his subconscious.
WOW this fucking riiiiippppppped!!!! Wow really I can't speak more highly of this from an animation perspective. I am SO impressed!! That Kim and Harry design is like THE perfect stylization for them - it is ridiculously appealing. The climax of the video is truly fucking inspiring - the quality jump to the hyperreal really emphasizes the pain you KNOW is coming in a way that mimics the game itself - like whenever Harry smells something apricot, I was panicking and shaking my head no at the pain I knew, indeed, was coming. The shot of Kim and Dolores sharing a cigarette made me OUGH aloud. Love you.
Right? Harry looks perfectly vulnerable while still being charming and Kim still has that stoic vibe while letting some of his cold facade slip just enough that you can tell he and Harry are close
I rewatch this several few weeks bc I just can’t stop coming back to it. The song fits perfect, your style is creative and funny but also so heartfelt? The shot with Kim and Dolores Dei is so haunting and awesome I’m in awe.
wow this is incredible. the part where it transitions to authority is so good, gave me chills
I can't believe Yellow made one for Disco Elysium and RUclips only decided JUST NOW to recommend it to me.
You took a lot of artistic liberty on this from the transitions and the depictions of the skills, I'm super impressed.
WOAH that transition into the internal makeup of the skills, and how Harry views those he loves... I got chills as he fell into himself, literally, and teared up when Volition held him steady against the disco ball. The part of you that loves yourself...
This is INCREDIBLE I could see how this vision could be smoothed so clearly!!! Fantastic work
This somehow hits a million times harder after fully finishing disco Elysium. Thank you for making this beautiful piece.
This is so incredible???? The transition with the skills and Authority had my jaw on the *floor*. I've been meaning to get back to work on my own video and this was so inspiring to see. The pops of colour on the skills! The glitchy movements before Authority pops out! The little bounces of movement on the characters to keep the scene full of motion!
You've done an amazing job and I hope you got joy out of making it! Thank you for sharing it for us to see
Fleshed out with proper animations, this could've been the official story trailer for the game. Excellent work.
HOLY SHIT!!! this is so good, thank you so much for this animatic!
I loved the spin dance with Titus/Klaasje, and Kim, and how you incorporated Harry's different skills into this animation - Encyclopedia catching Harry with its book and then spitting him out was the part when I thought "wow, I love the creative thought that went into this"
Also, Harry looking up to see Dora lighting Kim's cigarette - I wonder what this alludes to? Her passing the burden of loving Harry and dealing with his unstable personality to Kim?
SPOILERS AHED:
Wow... Good interpretation. And she have shining lungs, but Kim have halo. Becuse he have patience and compassion that she never have... She have only love (in DE lungs are symbol of love). But as Dolores Dei, she is long gone from Harrys life.
@@michatuodziecki2079 You're idolizing Kim, just as Harry did with Dora. My interpretation of this is that both Kim and Dolores Dei are together in his nightmare because they're both people that he sees as better than they really are. Dora with two golden lungs and Kim with a halo.
@@carlwheezer1640 Kim is not perfect but he really try to help Harry and he really can be his friend. Even when Harry destroy that song, Kim still support him.
@@michatuodziecki2079 I don't think it's right to say that Dora didn't have compassion, or patience. You can literally call her in the middle of the night, while she's in bed with her lover, 6 years after you two broke apart. She doesn't get angry, she doesn't immediately hang up, instead, she indulges you. She waits until you go through whatever you're going through, until you say everything you want to say, until you're finally ready to hang up. That takes INCREDIBLE amounts of patience and compassion. There are many ways to handle someone you've moved on form, and Dora is taking the most careful, caring route.
@@michatuodziecki2079 they weren't right for each other, they fought often, they kept breaking up and getting together again, and it's implied that Dora left Harry because of his issues with substance abuse and his unstable mental condition. You could say it was a shitty move, but people like Harry can drag you down with you if you're not careful. Even people who have maintained a strictly professional relationship with him have been left scarred by him, like Jean and Judit. If Dora prioritized her own mental health and happiness over his, no one has the right to blame her for that.
Hopefully, post game Harry is going to grow into a much more healthy person than his past self was. And yeah, I hope he doesn't end up idolizing Kim as "the pillar" of his existence. Forcing Kim to take care of him lest he self-destructs. Harry has to find the strength to just... Love himself. And not attach that self-love to someone else
My god, you renditions of his inner voices are STUNNING! THE SIMPLIFIED CHARACTER DESIGNS ARE SO COOL!! THIS WAS AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!!!
I'm going through your videos and realizing how many of these I've seen over the years and never put it all together
This rocks.
The transition from Authority to Harry's other skills is so good
I LOVE HOW YOU DREW ALL THE CHARACTERS!!! THEY LOOK SO NICE!
OH. MY. GOD. This is the masterpiece! The work of art, man, I really like it. This animatic is so stylish and conveying the atmosphere, I am really delighted
Your Kim is as perfectly precious as the one in game.
I'm in love! The dream sequence was obviously the highlight, but everything else was on point. Particulary loved the scene of Kim and Harry realising the car they're waiting to thaw out is his. I hope you make more stuff like this!
Every time i watch this i get emotional remembering that despite having all the bonuses for Kim reeeaally trusting me he still took a bullet for me, and i had to wake up looking at -SPOLIER-'s stupid face instead
I'm watching this on repeat for comfort. It's just so loaded up with emotion it feels cathartic.
Dolores Dei handing off the cigarette to Kim is insane story telling
This is so, so, so wonderful. Your animations always are, and it's been a delight watching how your skill expands and change with time! It's especially exciting you see do something for my favorite game.
Congrats to this Harry for making the roof jump with both his shoes and pants on, too.
Oh, and can I just say that I love that you didn't just follow the plot scene by scene as many other montages do, but did your own interpretation (which also meant you didn't give too much of the plot away, if I watched this before playing I wouldn't feel it spoiled anything at all, I'd just wonder what it all meant).
I'd like to see more Disco in this style. It works really well.
i always rewatch this every time youtube recommends it to me, which is ALL THE TIME!! fantastic work, i love the way the cast looks in your artstyle
I cannot get over how god damned FANTASTIC this is. Your depiction of the Skills here are phenomenal and you make the game gel so perfectly with the song. I'm in awe
I have no words
Сolor, transitions from scene to scene, all this is done at such a high level
Just brilliant
Got some Gravity Falls vibes with the art style. Excellent animatic!
I watched this so many times and it’s just too good. Great work
This is so damn good. I will pray to all the gods that some day this becomes a full-fledged animation, it really deserves it.
The way I've just had this animatic on repeat through out the whole of finals week really says something about me. It's just such a good motivator, but also with the added context of Disco Elysium the melancholy of it is amplified.
conceptualisation is just a little creechure and i love the m
Always a banger mate. I love the pure character that oozes from everything you draw. Keep up the fantastic stuff!
Kim with the moon halo at 2:40 is just... *chef's kiss*.
i'm so normal about this animatic.. oh my gosh. well done! this is definitely one of my favorites.
It is an amazing video! Both a good depiction of how the game feels like and something really original at the same time
Wow! Never thought you'd make an animatic of one of my favorite games, excellent work as always.
Момент с личностями внутри Дюбуа и Невиностями прям за душу хватил. Особенно Сила Воли.
absolutely blown away by this, the art style and story telling are so good
Ok, it was ... incredible, thx for that.
Mr Evert is helping me find my gun
"Sunrise parabellum."
This added years to my life, thank you
I cannot overstate how good this is
So, do you just make the most god-tier video-game animatics? Is that your thing? It's a good thing. I'm glad you're doing it.
I don't even know where to start. This is nothing short of inspirational. I'm just going to start ranting.
First, oh my gosh I love how you draw Harry especially- it's such a great stylization that really captures his goofiness, and I love how expressive you make him. Also Tidus looks sick (and ofc Kim is also amazing). Along that same vein, I'm really impressed with how recognizable you made Kortenaer (which I just found out is spelled like that instead of "Korneater").
Second, I really love that verse with the deserter (there's an eagle in the attic with a semi-automatic), it fits really well, and that moment with Jean too.
And then at 1:23 that rotation is so awesome and the moment with everyone interacting with Harry is so animated and lively and expressive and aaaaaaah! The spin with Klaasje, Kim being firm and supportive?!?!?!? It's perfect.
And then of course Kortenaer going off, again fits so well with the audio and bringing out this side of Harry being fearful and uncertain?
And then??? Hoooooooly shit just when I thought it couldn't get any better, you break out the dreamscape reality-bending trip inside Harry's brain! It's done pure justice to just the concept and overall vibe of Disco Elysium. That sort of thing is the key- no, the DISCO-- in all of this.
Anyways, I'm so glad you made this so I could squeal about it and also it helped motivate me to get off my butt and plan my own DE animation I've been wanting to do for a year.
CONCEPTUALIZATION [ Legendary : SUCCESS ] - Damn. That's impressive.
this video rewired my brain.
This video is the reason i became a Shayfer James fan, i even went to his Beowulf concert in Atlanta
this animation fits so well I honestly thought the song wasn't made for the game.
Чёрт, это прекрасно. Даже затрагивает душу...
2:49 I love the way esprit de corps looks at Harry lmao
The scab leader/authority bit was perfect and I would love to see it fully animated, but this entire thing was amazing.
This was incredible!
I wish I could experience DE again for the first time, it's truly one of my favourites.
just wanted to say that this is my favorite animatic of all time... its genuinely incredible i love how you connected the lyrics to the visuals :-)
