Disco Elysium - Dancing Queen PMV

[@chrismarie9527]

I just love that Harry's clothes change in almost every frame, that's so real. I am CONSTANTLY backing out of dialogue trees, changing my clothes for stat bonuses, and going back in to roll the dice. Kim keeps telling me that we need to have a talk about my "style" and I'm like buddy.... do you SEE my frog visor? I've GOT style.

[@Silent_Depths]

Gotta win those MOT skill checks so better take off your disco pants again and again. :,D I found myself switching to different items Harry held on his hands though, because so many of the dialogue trees take that into consideration and there's always a hidden joke to be found!

[@bobswolfie2001]

One of my favorite pics ever is a fan art of Harry with his frog visor, fishnet chest piece, cardigan flowing demurely from his shoulders, and he’s writing in a journal (while crying) with his froggy pencil

[@shanecoleman5952]

It never fails to impress me how fan animators can make the absolute trainwreck that is tequila sunset so adorable

[@simoneidson21]

Harry is always adorable

[@Fopenplop]

people are REALLY committed to the idea that this 50-something suicidal alcoholic has the eyes from Steven Universe. which is their right.

[@AutieZo]

how did the fan artists make Harry hot? I don't get it. he used to be unattractive to me until I saw the fanart

[@alecLogan]

@@AutieZo Reckon they think, “I’ve seen you at your worst. I will show you at your best.”

[@apollosperineum]

⁠@@AutieZohe was always hot, you were just in denial. indulge the electro-chemistry cause that’s just disco, baby

[@babagoogie6231]

First, let's make this absolutely clear. No one is saying you're an *actual* superstar in the groupies-and-cocaine, riddled-with-hepatitis-C, strikes-a-lionesque-pose-with-a mic kind of way. You’re not Guillaume le Million or Davy Dewis, no. You're a *metaphorical* superstar. You bring that rock-and-roll authenticity and passion to a line of work where people don't expect (or want) to see it. Where, some would say, it doesn't *belong*: law enforcement.

[@kiah9085]

YOU GET IT. Yeah it’s a game about a hopeless world but it’s ALSO a game about community and helping your fellow man and the ability to change, it’s Harry’s second chance, it’s him being able to make reparations and become a sillier happier person who’s life is worth living

[@satisfiedroom3930]

I really really love this video. Harry often gets portrayed as a complete and total disaster, but I like seeing a better view on how you can truly be a good person, and change his life for the better. A more hopeful Harry, wanting to right the wrongs of his past.

[@anonymous_wednesday]

i didnt get the sorriest cop of all tome for nothing man. I'm out here apologizing and being KIND

[@nemodra4790]

I like to think, thay as much of a mess as he is, beneath the pain, alcoholism, repressed memories, politics, and all of his weirdness Harry is still just a high-school gym teacher who wanted to make a difference.

[@scottforrester5306]

Oddly enough this feels like it shouldnt work, but it does so well. Many people focus on the fall of Harry, especially in animatics like this. Which is fair, its a very important part of how we know him, and relatable to almost everyone who plays the game. But what we seem to forget is that the story is just as much about Harry's rise as his fall. And you have encapsulated that perfectly. Showing Harry enjoying life as he can, and trying to form new connections over being held back by the ones he once had. Either by helping find the cryptids, establishing a disco club, or singing in the whirling. All of it gives such a texture to the world, because its all followed by the fight with the Mercs and the brutal violence in the red that wasnt seen in the video up till then. Combined with how Harry goes from thinking of his lost lover to the present moment to warn kim, its wonderful. Because in the end he is able to pull himself out of the past and its hold on him to ensure the people he loves and are with him in the present live.

[@ЛеонидЗурнаджи]

Yeah about that last one.... I..kinda fucked up. because of MAN OF HUMMILIAN OF DAM clothning, and the case file of failures. I have no idea why game decided to pick the AUTHORITY option there, -3 authority be like. (I did had multipliers 1+ and 2+, but that didn't help) had to play with detective Kuno then, i swear i could stil hear kim through my shivers, as he lays there on a hospital bed.

[@mutedups]

WHY CAN'T I SAVE COMMENTS?! THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL!😭😭😭

[@nemnyoom]

he looks like a big fluffy dog. a st. bernard or something like that

[@timcosgrove707]

1:41 is lovely. Harry at his absolute lowest, and he still sacrifices for the people with less than him. He really is a miracle.

[@aradraugfea6755]

Something that helps make this hit is... this was my playthrough. I also gave the girl the hat, I also got the little girl back inside the shop. I helped invent electronica, I taught the kids the proper way to dance! So on, so forth. As soon as I realized what kind of DISASTER Harry was, I made a deliberate decision that I was going to do everything I could to help him pick up the pieces.

[@hunterclouse4371]

It's funny how I know this one KZbin streamer refuses to play Disco Elysium (because one person said it was boring) and when someone typed in chat "But you can be gay", they unironically put on Dancing Queen and said, "I can be gay right now!". They're truly missing something beautiful.

[@gloriamjesser3287]

Why is he so lovely...His shining eyes...I can't take it anymore I'm literally crying😭😭My lovely lovely Harry...😭

[@anemoi6803]

I feel like everyone's Harry is different but very particular to them. They *know* who Harrier Du Bois is, and their Harry is very firmly formed in their mind. For me, my Harry is a genuinely kind, artful and slightly dopey himbo who deeply cares about the people around him, but doesn't care about himself very much. He drinks to numb his pain, smokes to look cool and impress Kim and takes great joy in the little things in life. Of course, nobody takes him seriously and he couldn't hit the broadside of a barn with a gun. He's carrying around so much trauma because he just can't let go of himself or the people in his past, and part of why he's become such a mess is that for a time he lost his ability to empathize. Without that, there was nothing tying him to the world, and he was days away from ending it all before his memory loss gave him another chance. Will he live to see 60? Probably not. Will people miss him when he goes? Without a doubt

[@FirstNameLastName-lg7yz]

Loved the video, but I also love how people who have made animations/animatics for this game chose probably from their own playthrough. There's another called good life where the creator definitely jumped to reach evrart and used the spirit bomb during the tribunal sequence, as well as warn kim during that event.

[@luxill0s]

1:38 I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I PASSED THAT CHECK

[@scumptvoid3140]

obsessed obsessed obsessed godddd harry would've loved this song,,,, this song not existing in this universe is one of the biggest tragedies of this game

[@TJS44_]

Harry when he only has points in empathy

[@coleslavz]

Harry is extremely babygirl in your artstyle i love it

[@Mahawww]

Harry looking this adorable is both amazing and disturbing. Well done.

[@epicmeisepic]

This is a really wonderful video, really excels at showing how disco can be the most beautiful game despite being coated in filth. Especially loved the detail of switching out the horrific necktie for the one Lena gives you at the tribunal. This next one is for you, you crazy necktie

[@frenchcookie42]

Perfect timing. I've been brain rotted about Disco Elysium for days and now my favorite animatic maker puts one out.

[@LatestCreatureFeature]

in this house we see harry and cuno as a garbage father son duo

[@wormsplaypoker6501]

This is so incredibly moving to me for some reason. The song and your style are just perfect for each other, there's such sweet tenderness in every frame. Just, all these emotions! The moments you chose to put in! Thank you so much for bringing it into existence.

[@palka104]

Это так прекрасно, как Гарри после своего падения выдалась возможность переродится стать лучшей версией себя отпустить прошлое и воссиять в настоящем . С Добрым утром парабеллум

[@annepandesal]

yeah!! 🥺

[@o3o814]

The best fan animation for disco elysium i've seen. Harry is so adorable in this style of animation

[@de-ep]

just played the game (again) and this make me shivers

[@BlueBeetle1939]

"Getting in the swing" is so brutal this is fantastic

[@justmerc1642]

Love the way the imagery directly reflects the lyrics at certain points, *especially* at 3:06 All in all, very disco, 10/10

[@junezhang6267]

This is absolutely AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I laughed so hard when I saw that "me + my garbage son" part lol

[@robinfloresreyes9023]

I'm in love with this animatic, because is beautiful and is basically my Harry's route!

[@eppielicious]

I cant stop watching this

[@jvukovic4]

This is what happens when you choose the "disco" philosophy option

[@xmjou]

я это видео пересмотрела уже бесчисленное количество раз, и с уверенностью могу сказать что это лучший аниматик по диско элизиуму из всех что я видела, а видела я их, поверьте уж, много. все персонажи такие милашки и круто нарисованы, стиль просто шикарный. и под конец сцена с трибуналом каждый раз мурашки вызывает. это просто шедевр

[@maxaroni39]

This is stunning! Thank you for providing more DE animatics, there is a severe lack of them!

[@sundaddy1077]

I LOVE THIS! all the moments in the story laid out so well! also harry definitely loves abba (i am not biased at all)

[@HiggsFiggs]

The way you draw Harry is so cute, I care him

[@draexian530]

If even Harrier can be the queen, then there's hope for us all.

[@yourpalmalika]

ooohhh the darker moments are soo good!!!

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

oh that is the cutest harry i have EVER seen, he looks like a sheepdog i'm in love this is fantastic, amazing job 💕 your style is so expressive, there's just so much LIFE in this and it's wonderful to watch!

[@mt.penguinmonster4144]

The way you've drawn Harry's moustache is incredibly cute.

[@Nemezja]

this has to be my favourite disco elysium creation..it hits SO hard. i don't know if i can find the words to express just how beautiful i find it. i come back to it ALL the time. it's just so perfect. Disco Elysium and this video give so many new dimensions to this song, it actually makes me wanna cry now each time i listen to it/watch this video. it's everything- the good, the bad, the positive, the negative, the beautiful, the ugly, love, hate, success, failure, vibrancy of life and brutality of death. being so in love with life despite it all, and just dancing, dancing, dancing, and living. so vibrant and alive. this is what Disco Elysium is about. this is what harry is all about! he's a shining, burning star, so in love with people as a whole, always searching for connections. dancing, having the time of his life, just because he exists. no matter what's happening. running on the coast, checking cryptid traps, getting a bullet out of a guy's head, buying a froggy visor, swinging on a swing. clinging to life, no matter what, despite it all, despite it all... the dancing queen, eternally dancing on life's dancefloor... 3:02 i adore this whole video but this has to be my most favourite moment. the way the music gets more vibrant, it never fails to bring me chills. i like to imagine him slowly opening his eyes and his hair billowing in the wind... and in the end, harry saved kim. it all led to this. through the damage and the heartbreak, he managed to save him. thank you so much for making this.

[@chrisgeraghty9951]

He's so happy it warms my heart. What an amazing work you should really be proud.

[@bluestcircle4550]

Why why why did this make me CRY? This was incredibly well done, I am stunned.

Ah, the game that inspired me to identify as a Superstar Financier. Wonderful animatic!

Came here for the meme and stayed because i got emotional

[@artemys5197]

Watching this holy fucking shit i miss disco Elysium.

[@horuho245]

somehow listenin to dancin queen makes me cry, but in a good way, and this pmv is so hopeful - it really moves me, and i did cry! like one commentor said here, this really shows the rise of Harry and Kim, and all the people they met - and the artstyle is so sweet n tender- as another commentor put it, i couldnt find other words than those two in love with life, dancin dancin dancin- as another one put it, that comment also moved me a lot of things has happened today, i cried a lot in a good way- i convinced my dad to play disco elysium- i feel more hopeful- i can live n dance with the people in my life, my parents who i havent talked to in a while i'm sure to rewatch this each time i'll see it, thank you for makin this, i hope you're well

[@tyros4372]

Now this is disco!

[@juliagibson3816]

Wow! I just finished this game and realized you’d done an animatic for it-have loved your AA, Zelda, and other animatics. This very much captured so much of the joy and fun of Disco Elysium, as well as the story. The Froggy visor shot especially had me grinning; it was cool seeing the various costumes in different moments. Love it all so much!!!

[@musikkfkf]

JUST WOW. THIS MADE ME CRY. SO COOL DRAWED AND JUST REALLY CUTE WOW.

Been on a Disco Elysium rabbit hole deep dive, or what felt like it, for the past 2 days(really 4 months ago) "Felt like a deep dive" cus I know for a fact if i dove deep enough to actually get even 5% understanding of this game I'll change into a person unrecognizable to myself and I'm just not ready for that Which is to say, this is fucking lovely

[@mutedups]

God, even after so long. Coming back to this video brings me back. Even though it was just earlier this year when I got into Disco Elysium. Time passed and stuff has changed, found out I've had undiagnosed ADHD for most of my life, I fell in love with; never properly expressed my feelings for; cried about/around a girl who I still think about and am currently hitting the tail end of my schooling. 18 years doesn't feel long but it isn't short either, I've learnt so much but that includes the scale of knowledge being so much larger than I thought. Feelings, dreams, friends and so much more I've experienced all in this time. All coming back to this video, this game, this song. Still magnificent. Hope you're well.

[@KankriV]

So I was walking around a Casino a few days ago, and I heard Dancing Queen play on the speakers and it just reminded me of this video [Funnily enough, I was in my Harrier cosplay that day]

[@annepandesal]

so freaking gorgeous, every detail brings this work to life and it reminds me of just how beautiful disco elysium is. GOD, its so dire and hopeless and YET there is beauty to be found and hope and the people around you make life worth fighting for oughhghhh. spectacular work

[@theDeanDanger]

i was under the impression that "PMV" meant a very different thing

[@easternCriminal]

Yeah I know. If I call it an animatic people get mad cuz it isn’t that. If I call it a lyricstuck there’s a whole other can of worms and I don’t write the lyrics. A music video technically fits but I feel is too broad. So picture music video it is. And I just bank on enough other people also reappropriating the PMV

[@laurafurst490]
