If you can see the "show contact info" dropdown below, I follow you. If you want me to, ask and I'll think about it.
I'm still on my first playthrough but disco elysium is a pretty good immersive sim.
it's got items, an inventory grid, your skills matter for everything; closing off and opening paths. there's a slot for bullets (but at this point I'm not sure if that's just to trick you).
it's got a grubby, not-quite-anywhere aesthetic, decayed cities, and the keystone of the immersive sim genre: competing grand conspiracies
Fails the hbomberguy test though, since it lacks both shooting mechanics and the ability to stack boxes that you can then climb
you can stack boxes to then climb at least once in the first few days I think.
and it definitely has shooting mechanics, I haven't found anything to go in the bullet slot yet but I have caused kim's gun to shoot many times. and then have to load a previous save.
no "crate that turns into a quadruped tank" though, so i guess it is disqualified now that you mention it
you know what i mean. there are prescripted events with dice rolls, not freeform gunplay or box physics
I can't believe the American Educational System has made gamers' imaginations so weak that they can't even lift boxes in their head with a working physics model smh
