How's that different from call of duty being a capitalist mouthpiece

Because the quality of Disco Elysium comes from it feeling like a piece if art that stays with you, it is absolutely written by left leaning writers but it's mature and elegant in it's storytelling tbaf happens to revolve around those ideologies.

Call of duty is a for-profit propaganda tool of the US government that is rimarily a multiplayer arena shooter designed to optimise profits due to gaming addictions while passively normalising American world police imperialism.

Apologies for any typos I wrote this while drunk.

Last CoD I played was 2. Crazy what this at that time really cool franchise became.

who here said anything about call of duty?

edit: in case you were genuinely asking in good faith, it's different because disco elysium is not a capitalist mouthpiece
