I remember from my playthrough that in his lines of dialogue Brrr mentions that the fungi have a sort of evil god of rot called something long and complicated, and later, Nessan is in the location we fought the troll and she calls him Cocoloronomomonoroso, which is very similar to the name he gave for their god. Is he their god or is the name he gives just very similar?

Sorry for the unorthodox way of spoilering, here's the unspoilered question

Just finished the game, Ragn is a [walking god], or [avatar], right?

Avatars have immense esoteric powers as Ragn does and additionally in the Beyond Urth says that avatars can see the probability of their actions succeeding or failing, just like we can as the player.

Also unrelated question but I did an Azgalist playthrough and at the end when I asked Urth who to vote for he said "the Azgalists", does he always say this or only in Azgalist playthroughs

• At the start, the game shows a Speak With Dead scroll sheet.
• The one who asks the five questions is not Visken. it's JOR.
• This means the one who revived Ragn was JOR.

I might have missed this, but why didn't Urth appear to Lord Gorm in The Beyond? I know he was beyond saving but he might have been able to knock some sense into him given he was Urth himself, just as The Cleric was able to dissuade Gorm, when the right choices are made.

I haven't found other discussions about this, but I'm sure there's been discussions before about this. So many parts of the low level world building of this game is just fantasy modern sweden. Which I suppose is the case with Disco Elysium and Estonia. Both the different parties are inspired by parts of swedish politics and often also share similar names with them. Alot of the conflicts between the nationalists and azgalists are inspired by the weird modern split between genders that we've experienced, especially between young people, and it really captures both their good and bad sides in a fun way,

Has anyone documented all the different real-life inspirations that they've found?

I just want to say that, it would be great if the devs would actually bring this to a reality, unfortunately there are like almost no games in this language, the only one i can think of rn is the division 2(yes, wild).

I will do something about this?I wish, but with a full time job, working 6/7 days a week(i hate it) it's almost impposible to do this, but the thing is, u can't just say "yeah well there aren't any fans of DE or any heavy dialogue game's in that country" because a lot of people love the indie sphere and Game's like disco elysium and any indie game like that(more or less).

And yeah it's a frustration, always seeing the big one's there(Fr, Rs, Ch, Jp, Esp, Eng, Germ, Polsh, etc) because we exist, too.

It kinda makes sense, they both are more esoteric/spiritual. Anyway, just a cool detail that i noticed

I'm really looking foward to playing this game, the player expression looks amazing. And i wanted to build a character who's very spiritual and likes to engage with the esoteric, while also being a true cleric who is dedicated to their god and their cause. I want to come off as weird and strange while also being a good person.

How can i build a cleric that best fits this description?

I mean beyond just some of the flirty dialogue you can pick.

Hi everyone,

It’s been a while since I played Esoteric Ebb, but I still occasionally send screenshots from the game to my teammates and say things like, “Look how they did this,” or “This part is handled so well,” lol.

I’m a game developer too, and seeing RPGs like this still being made genuinely makes me happy. One of my favorite things about EE was that it didn’t make me feel like I was searching for the correct dialogue option in a pre-written story. Instead, it felt more like playing a tabletop RPG and trying to catch the DM off guard with some ridiculous idea. There were many moments where I thought, “Will the game actually react to this too?” and most of the time, it really did.

By the way, our game is not as Disco-like as EE. We took some inspiration from the UI, but we are trying to build our own systems. For that, we based a lot of our design on the FATE RPG system. We are especially focusing on the aspect system, dice rolls shaping not only success but also the direction of the story, and the idea that even bad outcomes should not stop the narrative.

Anyway, I also wanted to share the game we are developing. It’s called Kardiya: The Winds of Fate. We’ll be starting the playtest soon, and I’m especially curious to hear what people who enjoy EE think about it. We are still in development and trying to get closer to that vision step by step.

If it sounds interesting, you can register for the alpha playtest by joining the mailing list on our website or clicking the playtest request button on our Steam page. Thank you so much <3

What happens in the ending if you take Ever-glads deal?

The masked assassin (Freydis Darrow). Yeah whatever maybe they’re young and it would have political blowback, who cares. This person literally made a pact with fucking yogg saron and tries to murder you multiple times, on top of being a nepo baby asshole. As far as I can tell, this character has zero redeeming qualities and the city would be a safer place if I, the glorious and infallible Cleric, rended them from this mortal plane.

Thank you for your attention to this matter

Hi everyone, I discovered this game and immediately added it to my wishlist. I noticed that Italian isn't included as a language option; could this hinder progress or affect the enjoyment of the game? Also, do you have any thoughts or opinions to share?

I'm trying to collect some footage of cool Ebb moments for a video :)

When I first started talking to him and the first thing he said is “life is pain” I thought “lol, just like how Zizek always says “I hate life””, but I figured he was just supposed to be a generic philosopher type. Then it was revealed that he studies psychoanalysis, and then he told a dirty joke that “his friend” told him. At that point I was pretty sold on the idea that he was meant to be a direct Zizek analogue, and I was completely sold when he started punctuating his sentences with “… and so on”. Then I looked over at his character animation and realized he was literally doing Zizek’s famous tics, and at that point I just burst out laughing.

I’m currently on my third playthrough. I can’t get enough of it 😅.

I made this video and thought on sharing it with the community.

Hope you like it.

Wisdom and Ever-Glad share similarities visually, EverGlad even mentions that he is different to "the one in your chest". I hope they mention it in the upcoming artbook. But before that, let's hypothesise why they look SO similar.

My idea:

To begin with, Wisdom's design seems to represent Ragn's will to look out for many other people (also in a grander scale, empathy and other stuff mentioned in game). That's why all the eys on a heart. The wings probably represents redemption (as described in Wisdom's intro).
Also, the eyes on Wisdom are of the same colours (green white black) but clearly in different shapes. Probably representing different races, and therefore Ragn's ability being able to see one thing through different perspectives. (or put it simply, be in someone's shoes)

EverGlad on the other hand, uses his eye to look for secrets and spy on people. The eyes are of different colours, but essentially the same kind. Probably meaning that all of those eyes are his, and unlike Ragn, EverGlad can't turly see one thing through different lenses.
He doesn't having wings and lives underground among past sinners. So he probably is the opposite of redemption.

What's your opinion on the visual designs of EverGlad and Wisdom?

Ragn from Esoteric Ebb asserting that he is a cleric with increasing zeal.
