Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5, XSX, PC)

[Gredival]

I don’t think that’s true tbh, cause

Spoiler: show

If Maelle could just control everyone then Aline would have presumably been able to just stop them from attacking her and sending them right after Renoir

Also I’m pretty sure each member of the Dessendre family represents one of the stages of Grief

Aline is Depression clearly, trying to escape in a fantasy world
Clea is Anger and is taking those feelings into her war
Alicia is Bargaining, trying to get more time with her brother
Renoir is denial because he wants his family back as they were
and Verso is acceptance, the only one of them ready to move on.

Switch Maelle with Aline.

Aline is bargaining by engaging in a facsimile fantasy to avoid the trauma. Maelle is depression, living without a voice and in pain, suffering the fallout of the trauma in perpetuity.

IMO Aline is denial making a world where nothing changed. Renoir is acceptance too in a way just like Verso.

One ending is tragic, the other is genocide. Imagine not only choosing the latter but trying to defend it as the only choice.

Spoiler: show

Now play me another one you lying piece of shit fuck you

[Tyrath]

Celeras doesn't think genocide is a tragedy. Pro-genocide confirmed.

Sure is a lot of ending spoiler talk happening outside spoiler tags here dudes

We are getting some kind of Expedition 33 and FFVII ReMake Trilogy collaboration. Wtf. Looks like there is an event ongoing right now so might be more news dropping soon.

[Tyrath]

Yeah we heard they were having the Clair Obscur devs visit the FF7 ones. What else they cooking? Lets gooo

[Andalusian girls]

i'm lowkey itching to do another playthrough already to finish the platinum but must remain strong until the big FLC release they spoke of and work on backlog

[Tyrath]

Ya I would hold off especially since it only allows 1 save file. You could mess around with backup saves but meh

I made zero progress on that damn Simon fight. Only things I'm missing from platinum is getting a member to level 100, all journals, and I missed the first record from the mime fight in the prologue. Otherwise I believe I have everything else done.

[Zealot]

Simon was easier than a lot of other fights for me because his attacks are fast but there's a definite rhythm to it so it's just like tap tap tap for parry or dodge. It was all the fights where there are delays between visual cues and the actual strikes that fucked me up.

as for the mime during the tutorial, the only reason to fight it is for the trophy specifically for it, you can get the same music tracks in the opera house during the final dungeon, so you can get all the music tracks for the trophy even if you skip the mime

12 noms, most in TGA history baybeeee

[Tyrath]

We need a Jeb 538 style sweep

[Tyrath]

Lol fuckers got nominated for both the indie awards too

And half of the voice acting noms are from it XD

fine I’ll post it again

I was really hoping it was Jeb in a baguette costume but I will take that too

It's not perfect but it's the closest I can do.

It's a real shame. Late game balance issues aside, I adored KCD2. Hades 2 was great. Not as high on Silksong but it still lived up to a ton of hype.

They have no shot.

ye i def think Clair Obscur earned GOTY + narrative + ost + Jennifer English best performance but hope some of the downstream awards get doled out to other games that deserve some love
