I've seen it touted as Disco Elysium but in a fantasy setting, and apparently it's good. What is it's relation to Disco Elysium? Is it just inspired by it or are people from the dev team involved in any way? Is it worth checking out?

It's inspired by DE and the reason I think it really manages to capture the same essence is that like DE it's born out of like one guy (and probably some friends') homebrew DnD Setting. It really has that feel that this is a world that exists beyond this game. Also otherwise pretty well written and competent and with so many changes it's not just a carbon copy but its own thing. Would highly recommend if you liked DE.
