Will Raphael Ambrosius Costeau lose his memory again?

I'm pretty sure that the next will be same setting, but different story. I mean, dude, they got a whole unique world unexplored and you want them to do sequel about cop in some disctrict of some little city?
Yeah.

Going from a single district to a whole city (the capital city of Revachol, no less) in Disco Elysium 2 would be a good stepping stone before starting make games about the whole universe. The real problem is the player character. Should it be a protagonist from Disco Elysium 1? An entirely new, fixed, character? Or a blank slate?

Well, if I were ZA/UM I would make an entirely different thing, in another location Of the same world, with another story and another hero (and combat!) connected to Revachol only through hints. Thankfully I'm not ZA/UM. Kasparov ?

Fixed protagonist, but not necessarily Harry (whom you can tweak during chacter creation). It's easier to craft memorable and engaging story with a character who already is someone in the world.

Location? Maybe Revachol during the revolution. Or one of the other states. The lore is rich enough for many worthy settings.

I'd like to see the hinted coming revolution explored, probably as a civilian caught in the middle.

I'd like a heavily pale-traveling involved, with much more exploration value game even if all intermediate places were portrayed far less detailed than it was done in OG. And not just to make PS:T likeness more glaring, mind you.

Well, I sure would like to see about the Revolution but also about some distant lands of the same world. Pale navigation (akin to Sunless Sea?) would be nice even as minigame. Jamrock DLC would be nice addition (though if this Cut is Final, I think that won't be the case).

I've grown very attached to Kim and Harry to let them go, but realistically what could they do with them, besides Harry's mind slipping yet again like it's implied has happened before in the end of the game? A lot of the appeal came out of not knowing who he was and slowly unveiling it all until the final dream.
Thinking on it for a bit I would actually like playing as a pregnant woman like it was suggested before. It would give you a LOT of material to work with if you wanted to give the player the option to be a complete and total fuckup again, which is very very fun.
As for the setting you could really just place it anywhere new, hell even with Harry or Kim you could realistically just make an excuse to visit a new place if you wanted to - just make sure the case is interesting if you go with a detective story again.

I want the continuation of the story. Waiting for news on the next game.

Yes, because the game is basically a prologue, an origin story about how the Last Hero of Revachol was made.

To be fair, you can basically admit to Kim you were pretending this entire time to have amnesia.
