Disco Elysium - Switch or Xbox/PS5

As in the title - its on sale on all consoles at the moment for a very good price and I was wondering what console should I get it on. I like the idea of playing it on the go and I thought as it looks like it should run no difference what console im playing it. But I heard some mixed reviews regarding the performance on Switch.

Any console, game is amazing. Bring a dictionary.

I played it on the switch and loved it. Didn’t really notice any major performance issues with it.

I’m going to be the negative nancy on this one, because I had the same deal, super cheap price and I wanted something to play on my Steam Deck.

It LOOKS great. It PLAYS like shit. You navigate the world as a character who maybe got hit in the head too hard a few too many times. None of the dialog choices are good, they are all just varying degrees of “Stupid” to “Who hurt you?”

Some people get off on it, I couldn’t stand playing a character that fucking stupid. I asked around going “So… did I just roll the stats wrong? It’s not too late for me to re-start…”

No, it turns out, regardless of your stats, it really is just that badly written.

Well, you kinda answered your own question. Wanna play on the go, go for the switch version. Don’t really need the game on the go, go for the PS5 version.

Definitely watch some comparison videos of the performance and make a decision based on that. If you’re likely to play the game on the go, then go for the Switch version. I myself realised, however, that I wouldn’t be playing the game on the go at all since my SO was interested too, so I got the game for PS5 for the better performance.

I think the performance isn’t stellar on Switch, but you can make it work since nothing too crazy is going on in the game that would require perfect framerate and resolution - most of the game is reading anyway.

Enjoy your time, whichever version you choose!

Can’t answer your question directly, but it is pretty lightweight and loads of fun!
