Before beginning to play Akiba's Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed, plans to write a screed defending the game while poking fun at the pure stupidity of the gameplay were already in motion.
There are valid criticisms to level at Disco Elysium: The Final Cut. The console port wasn't handled as cleanly as it could have been and new players are likely to get blindsided in a way that just a touch more information up front would have avoided.
