Nobody asked for this one, I know, but — listen, it’s a great album, it’s a great game, bah!, bah!, deal with me, it’s my birthday (I’m 38). Here are 22 new Disco Elysium achievements named for lines from Belle and Sebastian’s Tigermilk!

- A Spooky Witch In A Sexy Dress Has Been Bugging Me With The Story Of The Way It Should Be: The storyline about your ex-wife is, to be honest, the only really hackneyed thing about the game; it feels like a reductive and slightly misogynistic root for problems as serious as yours (alcoholism, workaholism, PTSD, and the death of disco). Still, this seemed pretty relevant, because you do spend a lot of time haunted by her? I don’t know, something about finding and chewing the brand of apricot gum she liked. Like I said, you’re your own man — how about coming up with your own thing to achieve, yeah?
