Unless the industry is mandated by law to give it to GTA 6 it's pretty much got the GOTY on lockdown too.

It might have a real chance at GOTY considering they usually like to hand it to weird stuff. Helldivers 2 should have taken it last year but instead Astro Bot did.

Nah goty goes to GTA because its normieslop.

buy a fucking ad holy shit im tired of these shills

GOTY means nothing anymore. Since you gave this award to the game Astrobot, which no one remembers or talks about anymore.

GTA 5 did lose to TLOU so maybe there's a chance they wont go full normalfag.
There's no way GTA 6 will have better music, story, art direction or visuals for that matter. It will be a great technical achievement with mediocre gameplay.

I don't get the "buy an ad xD" meme you people are so keen on repeating. Talking about video games and their merits and failures is literally the point of this board. How about just fucking leaving if you so desperately hate it?

helldivers 2 was boring as fuck
me and a mate refunded it and went back to insurgency

m8 what
everyone loves astro bot
I don't even have a ps5 and I love it

this
GOTY isn't suppose to be and advertisement
it's suppose to be an award of accomplishment

Why are frogs shilling this game so hard. Most inorganic "hit" ever. The French should not be trusted and everything they make is pure garbage like their croissants.

t. brown hands

Never heard of this game outside Anon Babble so 100% guaranteed shilling

fuck off

You don't have a ps5, how can you love it? LOL
You just prove my point

rabbit357.jpg - 832x1216, 151.16K

Ok chang. Sorry your monkey game lost lol it wasn’t that good anyway, I dropped it halfway through.

These faggots think that Anon Babble is another Anon Babble, go figure.

It's been locked to the top sellers of Steam since release, it's gotten banners on every storefront, it's the best selling game on PS5 and you haven't heard of it? Perhaps it's time to expand your circle a little?

Talking about video games and their merits and failures is literally the point of this board.

Posting generic platitudes about how some game is "LE HECKIN BEST OF ALL TIME" is not discussing video games.

I have steam and battle net on pretty much every day
i watch youtube almost every day
the only thing i have seen is a desperate avowed add and some game on sale

inorganic "hit"

zero large marketing, 1 week of playtest on a demo for a handful of gaming YT channels pre-launch

million plus copies sold in less than a week

GTA 6 will win all of these

When it's finally out in 2030.

And who the fuck asked for your opinion on what is and is not discussion of video games?
You can bitch all you want but you don't have any influence on what people talk about on this site and the little shred of you have, your ability to bump threads, you are wasting by being mad about a topic you claim to not to be interested in.
A lot of you people are so genuinely retarded that I'm surprised more actual shills don't come here. It's like fishing in a barrel with you mongs.

I don't pay attention to westernslop so that's probably why I didn't know anything about this garbage "game" until last week.

And how is your tastelessness suppose to be our problem?

>zero large marketing

It was backed by Microsoft, literally the richest corporation in the entire world, who plastered over every Xbox livestream for the past year + put it on the front page of all their Goy Pass storefronts.

Seriously, this bullshit narrative of Expedition 33 being "LE PLUCKY UNDERDOG INDIE GAME THAT HAD 0 FUNDING AT ALL" needs to fucking end. It's pathetic.

NTAs but I have seen plenty of oblivion remake and even some diablo 2 remake videos

ZERO about this game shilled on Anon Babble

so you are a mad weeb FFfag? got it

I hope you're getting paid, because nobody should suck this much dick for free.

It will be swiftly forgotten.

well I didn't know about it so its probably shit!

Imagine actually writing this out
Its toddler tier

what point are you trying to make here?
that a game that's been out 5 years has more reviews than a game that's been out 1 week?
i mean, yeah, okay?

Furthermore I am subscribed to like 50 gaming channels on youtube
NADA about this shill slop

33 has amassed almost as many PS5 reviews in 4 days as Demon's Souls in 5 years

33 is a crossplatform game

Something ain't right here

Indeed, the game already reached its peak playercount at the weekend. It won't go any higher than that.

People might think 120k is an impressive number, but that's only because they keep incorrectly comparing it to JRPGs like Persona or Metaphor. When you correctly compare it to its WRPG competitors like Baldur's Gate 3, Oblivion Remastered, or Elden Ring, 120k is a pathetically low playercount to peak at.

On top of that, you can tell from peak playing time that the numbers are being propped up by Chinese players. During European/American hours, the playercount craters.

The game will be at sub-10k players within a few weeks and once the marketing machine loses speed you will start to hear a lot more criticism.

You don't understand. These people are so addicted to being mad about trivial nonsense that they will literally latch onto anything, ANYTHING, to feed into their oddly emotional dependency. Anon Babble is one of the lowest IQ boards on this site, so combine that with the above-mentioned addiction and you think these people are rational enough to realize they are bumping a thread about a topic they don't like?

What else was this year? Nigger samurai and a bunch of remakes?

You don't understand. These people are so addicted to being mad about trivial nonsense that they will literally latch onto anything, ANYTHING, to feed into their oddly emotional dependency

Nope, I normally don't get involved with these shitty shouting matches over whether X or Y game is "good" or "bad".

But you people started this when you started using your shitty French "game" as a weapon to attack my favorite games with. When you started shitting on Japanese games that I love and claiming your game is "better than all of them", you declared war.

Now I will not rest until I see you and your ilk destroyed.

NTA, but if you'd allow me to go pic related for a post: I actually don't believe Anon Babble is as addicted to outrage as they claim to be.
I think that big companies, the larger the more likely, pay brown 'people' a few cents per day to actively monitor this and other boards. Then, whenever something comes up that challenges their master's product, they are tasked with shitting on it, the more the better.

At this point there are so many companies in on this that talking about any video game is practically bound to raise flags at some opposing company and that's what we're seeing.

backed by Microsoft

source: trust me bro

Being released on XBox Game Pass doesn't mean you are "backed by Microsoft", it was shown on the XBox showcase and then allowed in the market for the XBox console, Microsoft put no money behind this studio.
Its like pretending that every game that goes on a Nintendo is made by Nintendo, thats the level of retard you are.

Talking about video games and their merits and failure

OP didn't do any of that. Neither has any single person in this thread. There's not a single post related to gameplay because shills only want to talk about sales numbers.

On top of that, you can tell from peak playing time that the numbers are being propped up by Chinese players.

ALREADY GOING IN WITH CHINESE COPE

It really is fascinating seeing people who before wanted the western industry to be dismantled over being literal cancer to coming up with conspiracies and fear mongering over the chinks.
Half the time it's backed by NO EVIDENCE and its just fucking guesses and shit just thought up with no further research.

Man, having schizophrenia this severe must be rough.
And I don't believe you for a second, I bet your live and die on these silly outrage posts.
Oh and nice cope about Japan by the way, despite your post being the first mention of it ITT. Browse a lot of these threads do you?

I'd try to soften my post by saying something sarcastic about hoping you got mental help, but your retardation is more entertaining left intact.

ALREADY GOING IN WITH CHINESE COPE

It's not cope when it's factually correct.

gamalytic.com/game/1903340

Players by country: China ~ 30.5%

It really is fascinating seeing people who before wanted the western industry to be dismantled over being literal cancer

I never said that though?

It's also not so simple as being west vs east.

I love Japanese games. But I think everything that China and Korea produces is irredeemable garbage. So seeing a bunch of Chinese people flocking to a game, when the Japanese are largely disinterested, certainly makes me suspicious.

The chinks hate the game though, they're the main source of negative reviews.

This shit is being shilled so hard

I got spoiled instantly when ff7 rebirth came out but somehow i passively know nothing about this games content

Best game my ass

A merit is basically a quality, action, or feature that deserves praise, recognition, or reward. You're very welcome.

For such a "popular" game and "discussion" there suppose to be, where's all the fan art? Why isn't anyone actually talking about the plot or characters? We know why no one is talking about the gameplay since it's the same turn based shit that super Mario RPG already did.

Shills, why should I actually give money to the frogs to play this? Genuine question. No one actually tries to sell this game, only shill it by saying it's the best ever in the most generic statements.

Then why are they the biggest consumers of it?

its da Chinese

Bro I'm a 50 year old redneck with a Steam account in bumfuck no where and I bought this game day after release simply cause it popped up in my new releases and I was like WTF even is this omg.
The only people legit assmad about this game being so good are blue haired faggots that lost their jobs when Arkane Austin went under and think slop like Concord is good.

Fun fact: chinks outnumber Americans on steam.
Anytime you see a large number of Chinese the most actual likely reason is simply that the game is just fucking popular. Why people haven't thought of that before baffles me.

Rebirth wouldn't have flopped if it was turn-based.

Being released on XBox Game Pass doesn't mean you are "backed by Microsoft", it was shown on the XBox showcase and then allowed in the market for the XBox console, Microsoft put no money behind this studio.

Microsoft pays literal hundreds of millions of dollars to get games as day 1 Goy Pass games.

That dismantles the myth that Clair Obscur is some "low-budget indie game". It received massive funding from the world's richest and most evil company.

It'd be like claiming a movie is some low-budget indie masterpiece when Amazon are promoting and funding it.

Its like pretending that every game that goes on a Nintendo is made by Nintendo, thats the level of retard you are.

If Nintendo were doing advertisement for a 3rd party game on their own social media platforms, and sending push notifications on the Switch to get people to play it, then it would be accurate to say Nintendo had a hand in marketing/funding the game.

Shills

No one actually tries to sell this game

Do you read stuff, or even think it through, before you post it or do you just fire-and-forget and hope it makes some sense after you hit Submit?
Want a shot of reality? There are no shills ITT.

How will squenix cope with that?

Am I missing anything?

Yes: best butthurt generator of the year. The FF trannie seeth has been unreal.

Again, he didn't do any of that. He just mindlessly said "thing is good" without explaining why because he's a braindead ape. He didn't describe a single quality of the game.

True. But that's a pretty well-known fact by now isn't it?

Unless the industry is mandated by law to give it to GTA

unless

No shills

No actual discussions but everyone is defending this garbage for some reason

How about you do your job correctly, sar. Try talking about why the game is good instead of telling me that the game is good.

It's pretty sad they keep losing what should be extremely lopsided fights in their favor, but losing to BG3, then Metaphor now this has driven some of them unfortunately insane. Wonder what will be the 2026 RPG to send them on yet another year-long meltdown?

and everything they make is pure garbage

ENTER

I don't have an image to visualize this better for you, and if you can't read I can't make it any clearer. Declaring a positive quality of a video game that deserves praise is literally what a merit is. In your defense if you didn't get my last post you probably won't get this one either.

Rebirth flopped because the people who were tricked into buying the first part knew then that it wasn't a remake so they didn't buy the second part. it has nothing to do with turn based combat.

Source?

Anytime you see a large number of Chinese the most actual likely reason is simply that the game is just fucking popular.

So why is it not the case for Oblivion Remastered, which released just 2 days prior to Clair Obscur and has been even more popular than it?

Oblivion playercount is low during Chinese hours to the extent that Clair Obscur actually briefly overtakes it, but then shoots way WAY up in European/American hours at the exact same time CO craters.

And according to rough data, Oblivion's top countries are:
gamalytic.com/game/2623190

USA ~ 44.1%

UK ~ 7.2%

Canada ~ 5.8%

If you are correct that EVERY popular game on Steam has the same proportion of Chinese players as Clair Obscur, then why are seemingly no Chinese people playing the even-more-popular Oblivion?

So what are some good turn based RPG games if I'm a normie retard who has never played them before but enjoyed this.

Wizardry 4

Anon Babble twisting themselves into pretzels into coming up with reasons why the game is shilled

The amount of mental gymnastics you niggas will make to not be forced to admit that sometimes the answer is that its just a good game.

Using AI hallucinations as an argument

Oh no, he's retarded.

lmao
not even the low hanging fruit this game takes many inspirations from like persona series and original ff7 through 10?

If it was a good game, people would simply be talking about how good it is, rather than being aggressive and rampaging around telling us how X or Y Japanese game is "shit" and Clair Obscur is "better".

I can’t tell if this is shilling or reverse shilling anymore. Probably the latter.

also south park stick of truth, paper mario series would be other good examples

Why not Shadow Hearts? The Euro setting still works.

I'm a 50 year old

simply cause it popped up in my new releases and I was like WTF even is this omg.

And yet you type like some faggot 16-20 year old, you retarded old man. Very embarassing

So he’s French?

is there really no other AA-AAA rpg this year besides outer worlds 2?

So what are some good turn based RPG games if I'm a normie retard who has never played them before but enjoyed this.

Clair Obscur has extremely little in common with actual turn-based JRPGs.

This is a turn-based Soulslike game. If you're looking for more like it, just play Sekiro and Elden Ring.

But if you want to try REAL turn-based Japanese RPGs, start with a popular classic like Persona 5 Royal or Final Fantasy VII (maybe X if you can't handle PS1 graphics), and go from there.

Verso is absolute proof that Clive really deserved a better side cast than he got.

Probably for the same reason I'm not playing Oblivion. I'm not paying Todd Howard for a game I already beat 20 years ago just cause its in a new engine.
They resold me Skyrim once already, I'm not buying into their hype any more after 76 and Starefield.
While you might consider the Chinese "bug people" that "consume everything" its possible that they don't really care about the Oblivion Remaster cause western RPG's are largely not their thing. Even the amount of Chinese modders for Beth games is smaller percentage than the overall total western mod developers for those titles. Bethsoft games just don't work well for the Chinese market, there is some adoption of Bethsoft games in Asian markets, most primarily in Korean markets, but even there they have like ONE board on Arca Live.

If you ever payed attention to the threads months before release you'd know that it was only ever used to shit on square Enix and their direction with FF and more a comment on how turn based is still popular with people.
Its very recently that you see the metaphor schizo spam threads. Which creates a schizo feedback loop and idiots like you not reading threads and now thinking its attacking all JRPGs despite the fucking devs themselves for 33 saying how much they love JRPGs

The game us garbage. Shit side quests barely any. No characters just dumb fucking statues.No post game. Just fight enemies randomly placed The world map, main story is 10-15 hours. Garbage plot twist, it's a shilled kike game.

The game us

BASED shadow hearts enjoyer.
In fact Im like 90% sure E33 was inspired by Shadow hearts 2 's combat system. And if anyone liked the QTE part of E33 then they'll reaally enjoy Shadow hearts trilogy. Very cool atmosphere and badass music

Clair Obscur has extremely little in common with actual turn-based JRPGs.

You didn't even get to the damage cap, did you?

its possible that they don't really care about the Oblivion Remaster cause western RPG's are largely not their thing.

So why are they playing Clair Obscur then?

How? I've been playing video games since Space Invaders was on a table console you played at a restaurant dude. I played the original Mario Bros on a stand up console in a bowling alley that was down the road from my house as a kid.
Why do you think games are "for kids" only? I've been a gamer since I was very young and became a mod designer and in my adult life I'm a AA dev that worked for Sony Online Entertainment when that was a thing back in the 00's.
Why so sour?

This game is shit

Because Claire obscur is based on the JRPG design of RPGs that appeals to asians?

pretty sure the director named it as an influence

flagrant fanboy thread

I agree, but I would have liked the story was better pacing, huge narrative changes happen too suddenly, for instance a huge thing happens while looking for a rock for your comic relief fat guy boat, I feel it could have been done differently and more effectively

If you ever payed attention to the threads months before release you'd know that it was only ever used to shit on square Enix and their direction with FF and more a comment on how turn based is still popular with people.

Well that's retarded. The game is barely even turn-based. The dodge/parry mechanics make it more of an action game.

It's hilarious seeing people complaining about Final Fantasy adopting action mechanics and then praising Clair Obscur for doing the literal exact same thing.

Its very recently that you see the metaphor schizo spam threads.

That's probably why I took notice then. I don't pay attention to FF schizo wars, but the shitposting extending to other JRPGs as well irked me.

how can that be when the game doesn't look that impressive. To me it just looks like a mobile gacha RPG with facescanned faces pasted on

It's not.

Clair Obscur is aesthetically a WRPG and mechanically the Japanese games it's closest to are FromSoftware games (which are essentially Japanese-made WRPGs).

meaningless accolades

So it doesn't have best gameplay of the year, just boring FF combat with slick animations to trick anti-gamers into believing this is a great game, neat I love games for non-gamers.

Cause its beautiful, it tells a compelling story and it has a fairly satisfying game loop?
I didn't even know it existed before say...last Friday? I'm playing it cause it looked cool, then I was like....I'll wait for a sale....then I watched a YT video about it and was like....okay hold on this is actually good....and I bought it.
And turn based games are not generally my thing outside of say XCOM:WOTC and BG3...but thats the thing, 33 seems to have reached the people that lifted up BG3, and well....that tide is deep brother.

Exactly my point.

Clair Obscur is not a JRPG. It doesn't appeal to people who love actual JRPGs.

This is a game for normalfaggots who circlejerked over Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate inbetween playing Call of Duty matches.

Wasn't the brown hair chick lamenting she lost her boyfriend in one of her conversations? And the black haired one has a thing for the main character, I fail to see how getting close to a friend can be considered gay

And you people wonder why I hate this game when this is what your entire argument boils down to in the end.

So you're just aren't going to even fancy the thought that your convoluted conspiracy cannot possibly be wrong
Alright then no use to continue arguing.

And calling a 120k peak AA game a flop. This game made probably made more profit than most AAAs do.

You don't understand. Implying E33 may have the slightest bit of legitimacy would destroy the online identity I've carefully crafted over the years, and this just cannot do. I will not let you filthy scum take away my toys from me.

And calling a 120k peak AA game a flop.

120k is pathetically low for a WRPG on Steam.

Even Starfield peaked at 330k players.

Todd won by injecting SJW into a good game and getting more revenue in a week than he made in 20 years selling original Morrowind + Oblivion. You lost by having your sex-appeal focused game with dogshit gameplay shart itself and flop miserably.

This clearly shows that SJW can't ruin a good game while sex doesn't sell a dogshit game like Obscure Turd 33.

self respecting white males only play japanese tranime games where they dress up like asian e-whores

Sharted and flopped.

Implying E33 may have the slightest bit of legitimacy

It's got legitimacy sure, in it's own field (WRPGs).

But it and its fans need to stay the fuck away from JRPG discourse. You are not welcome.

100% agree. Almost everything about it is exceptional. When I see someone say it's average, I immediately disregard their entire existence because there's nothing "average" about E33.

It's a flop, can't even compete with BG3 in terms of success.

Motherfucker do you even fucking know the huge difference in budget and employees?

Both are Microsoft-shilled games that had a Goy Pass deal. I see no difference.

In terms of employees too, they're the exact same. ex-Ubisoft devs vs Bethesda devs. Same calibre of talent.

art

the women are fucking ugly, even amerimutt games don't have such ugly foids in their games.

Both are euro devs so they're not losing. If anything euro devs in the industry and massively outperforming Americans

Are you actually retarded? Again what gain do get from purposely being retarded and ignorant?

BG3 are euro devs
33 is chink frenchoid ubisoft leftovers

Starefield had about 1000 hours of heavy marketing prior to its launch and its from a known western developer that leveraged its entire studio's credibility to reach the pathetic peaks it hit before everyone realized what a shit show it was.
No one even knew 33 was coming til it was released outside of a very small space of individuals. Even the YT cycle on this game was non-existent til the day of release and all the YT channels that did videos on it were small and the videos were obviously rushed during a short play test window.
And now YT is literally FULL of videos from "pros" that have probably played the game for all of 30 hours maximum that are trying to ride the rising algorithm 33 is lifting because of how good it is.
While its certainly not as big a surprise as say....Schedule I was, where one developer just absolutely crushed the mainstream industry for a couple weeks....33 is a stunning piece of art from a studio that really seems to have loved what they were making enough to bet their lives on it...cause they're all people that pulled out of much larger studios to be able to make it.

I thought zoomers were the ones that needed constant stimulation and action to make "spreadsheet combat" not suck?

There’s something about this game that has zero swag

the women are fucking ugly

They look like human females to me, I'm aware that is probably what constitutes "ugly" for someone that thinks an anime color palette is complex and deep.

might as well be, its unreal engine slop.

your game is bad

Have you considered buying an ad, Mr. Shill?

There is nothing special about this slop, so fuck off.

the Geoff Awards are fake

You must be a Concord enjoyer. Or a "community manager" for South of Midnight.

Tranny you can put the girls on swimsuits....what's your point?

Zoomoids are the ones begging for Soulslike mechanics in every single game.

Actual adults (25+ years old) prefer their turn-based RPGs to be actually, y'know, TURN-BASED.

Geoff wants Sony to win GOTY, so that they keep on buying ads. EA is also also allowed to win sometimes.

These circle jerk awards shows are all about funneling ad revenue into a faggot's pocket and nothing else.

Yes, we've already seen Obscure Turd's laughable player numbers which is why it is universally agreed upon that it sharted and flopped. It can't even compete with a 20 year old game lmao

Oblivion

he got sold another game he already owns by a company that is actually backed by Microsoft....while complaining that E33 is somehow backed by Microsoft just cause it was allowed on XBox.

Newfags are easily detected.

Yes, you could keep eating shit, but you're obviously full so you choose to slither back under your closet-stool instead while shaking and shitting xirself uncontrollably.

Fateshit

Fate/SN was fucking garbage, no idea why the series took off

jrpg fans have been begging for a jrpg without the persona highschool shit for decades

one finally gets released

people love it

Worth it just for the OST. The high risk/reward combat system is fucking great.

it's literally the only scene in the game where those models in this amount are used, it would be a massive waste of resource to make more for a 30 minutes intro.

people love it

Is that why it sharted and flopped?

I just appreciate that the writers respect my intelligence and ability to piece things together. The characters being 30+ year olds or teens are irrelevant.

What will be the next astroturfed game?

Its sold over a million copies in 4 days.
Ubisoft can't even give away AC Shadows faggot.

You don't know what a success is. You've obviously never seen one happen. Oblivion Remaster does not count as a "success" its a remastered game that most real gamers beat 20 years ago already being remarketed by a soulless dead studio that is being propped up by nothing but Microsoft money and Todd Howard's hair.

whatever china funded unreal engine slop is regurgitated next.

It's a french term for monochrome painting using light and dark only

gonna win some awards for sure, but still could come out some big titles by end of the year
biggest surprise thats fur sure, people didnt expect european jrpgs

astro bot

That shit was blatanlty turfed, no Japanese played that shit

>jrpg fans have been begging for a jrpg without the persona highschool shit for decades

No, "JRPG fans" have not been doing that.

Tourists who don't actually like JRPGs were the ones who were doing that.

First time in years I've cared about a story in a videogame the initial start is fucking wild.

Funny that mention AC that had over 4 million players kek. The game had a 100 man/tranny dev-team. Made by the French, not some jeets, so they had to pay European wages. It's an open and closed case of shart&flop lol.

You forgot Marvel Rivals.

Good one. I also feel similar about metaphor, but I don't know enough about it to be sure

flopped

Like said, it already outsold assassins creed shadows.

Everyone's saying this is amazing but nobody's really saying WHY so I doubt it's all that good and it's just hyped.

dave the diver

cant think of any, and outer worlds 2 looks like shit, like DLC to first game
OW 1 biggest problem is that it mindlessly copies fallout 4, the good, the bad, and the ugly
they did nothing to upgrade on bethesda formula, and if anything did it worse by not bothering to have an overarching plot at all, i know people bitch about bethesda writing, but the solution is not to not have a story, its to have a good one ...
OW 2 from previews looks extremly bad, like OW1 but somehow worse and more clunky

expdition 33 will be easy goty as a jrpg style title

What's actually showing is your hypocrisy, shit-eating two-faced rat.

I will believe the things one dev says, but ignore the official statements of other devs, because it does not fit my agenda

Your obscure turd sharted and flopped, lost to a literally 20 year old game with half the player numbers. You lost, incel. Write that on your dumb fucking forehead.

good story

great music,literally 11/10 GOTYAY

good combat

good world design

good characters

good moment-to-moment writing

a wealth of optional content

girls are cute

men are competent

levels are a bit linear but have a bit of off-path exploration for more rewards, and are generally thoughtfully designed despite overall linearity

surprising amount of depth in mechanical character development

unique artstyle despite being UE5 sloppa

UE5 sloppa occasionally betrays itself with lighting and post-processing effects

story stumbles slightly in the middle of Act 2 but quickly recovers, and the actual gameplay and presentation of those parts are great

The game was made by substantially more than 30 people. It was made by like 100 people which includes support studios.

Fucking shills are lying through their teeth to astroturf this slop.

4 million players

Where? You said 4 million players. Show your data faggot.

I am extremely skeptical of this game and all the hype around it. Feels so artificial. THE HIGHEST USER RATED GAME OF ALL TIME? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? Nah, something smells fucking fishing.

Show your data faggot.

I made it, the fuck up

is there really no other AA-AAA rpg this year

*AHEM*

Just play the game yourself and see if you like it. Did you ever think of that? Fucking retard.

Here's your citation:

store.steampowered.com/app/1903340/Clair_Obscur_Expedition_33/

Scroll down, see reviews. I especially recommend the negative ones. Most of them say something like "the game is amazing, but I can't git gud at parrying". Some negative reviews literally call the game "perfect".

you mean just as fishy as wukong being massively shilled here and supposedly being the highest selling single player game of all time! yet no one ever whispers its name.

Sorry you got filtered by the game's basic parry system.
If getting mad and calling people shills helps you deal with your utter lack of skill, that's okay.
Remember: it's all a conspiracy specifically against you to make you play games you think you won't like.

good story

It's shit.

great music,literally 11/10 GOTYAY

It's pretty shitty, a sold 4/10.

It's a turd.

unique artstyle

Unique in the sense that it makes other UE5 games look good.

story

Surprise: it's shit.

No wonder this turd sharted and flopped so spectacularly it had to go into the discount bin on day 1 KEK.

I also thought Wukong was fishy as fuck. It also felt inorganically hyped I don't know what you're on about. I was so thankful it didn't win GOTY.

how can a game without a big dev studio and no marketing suddenly be one of the best selling games of the year?

I dunno, maybe its actually good?
This isn't even my usual style of game....I'm a heavy Skyrim modder, I play CP2077 (mod the fuck out of that too) BG3 was the last turn based game I played and XCOM:WOTC before that...everything else has largely been survival/crafting shit with friends.
If 33 can reach me, a very old and set in their ways kind of gamer...then its reaching a lot of people.

Wukong was GOTY just like how Exp33 is GOTY

Can someone redpill me on this game? Is it about characters, dialogue, choices or just combat? Is there romance?

Over 3 million players. Might as well be 4

French niggers be lying through their fucking teeth, have some shame you dumb frog rat scum piece of shite scum.

sure it is chang, sure it is. *wink wink*

....yeah....

Did you see how right after you said that shit immediately went into a pre-canned speech of how amazing the game is and is topping ALL the charts, even playstation! This is the most shill shit i've seen in years, holy shit.

NOOOOOOOOO STOP CHILLING NON AMERIMUTT PRODUCTS, YOU MUST BE LE CHINK

Cope and seethe you dumb faggot

this dev isn't lying, because I say so, but this one does, because I also say so

they're both Microshaft slaves

Pathetic two-faced rat.

you mean just as fishy as wukong being massively shilled here and supposedly being the highest selling single player game of all time! yet no one ever whispers its name.

The common thread between both is that the vast majority of their players came from China.

Every game that Chinese players and funding is involved with is highly fucking suspect.

Its literally a cutscene movie game with one of the worst "twists" of all time

Paranoid schizophrenia.

Characters are great, dialogues are well-written, combat is fun. The game flip-flops between being a cutscene-heavy borderline movie game to letting you run wild for hours on end on its world map.
There are no choices, romance is apparently there but clearly not the focus.

Generic Soulsslop, whether real-time (Wukong) or turn-based (Clair Obscur), will never be a legitimate GOTY.

you can tell pajeets were paid to shill this trash ass game

You forgot to post proof that you played it. Shame, because I'm sure you understand that without it your "opinion" is worthless.

no actual data to support said claim

Kek, so the same shit as the Obscure Turd claim? Lol. And they're both slaves to Microshaft lmao.

you haven't played it

Clair Obscur has extremely little in common with actual turn-based JRPGs.

This game has really exposed the fags that haven played jrpgs outside of Final Fantasy and Persona. These kind of inputs are not a new thing.

"B-but you haven't EATEN the shit, h-how c-can you say it's s-shit!?"

Ahh, the classic shit-eater fallacy.

it was made by 38 people counting the Koreans who worked on the combat animations. Every single other credit is

Voice acting

music

QA

l*calizers

These kind of inputs are not a new thing.

Never before have they been so central to the battle system as they are in Clair Obscur.

It's very clear that the actual turn-based combat is the side-show, the real game is about dodging and parrying.

It has no DRM, literally pirate it and then come back here to suck it off because it's actually good. Stop reading everything here and just experience it firsthand.

What the earliest you can get the weapon upgrade item for the level 20 upgrade?

France and China are dominating.
USA and Japan flopped.

Why are the french so desperate to wash themselves out of existence? Even their own "french" characters are more mexican than french, and all the npcs are black. It's like they have the natural born french.

I refuse to participate in the circle jerk but I will pirate it.

fpbp
all shills btw. this game is mediocre UE5 asset flip slop

grim

I bet it won't be eligible this year because R* will either want to push it to as late in november or december as possible or delay it to next year.

its ridiculous the amount of black npcs in just that 10 minute long intro. crazy yet is how racist their portrayal of blacks are. show me a single black man in france dressed in traditional french clothing.

Oh look someone that can actually see the shit for what it is. Making money these days is really as simple as UE5 HURR DURR SHINY GRPAHICS!

Sony should pay them to make a Legend of Dragoon remake.

bro, france has a bunch of niggers. I dated a girl from lyon, she didn't like blacks. There are a lot of blacks there. Hell, they even did Lupin show with a black guy as the protagonist (which was pretty decent). But yeah, black people are pretty common because of how close France is geographically to Africa.

Thought I'd ask, how egregious is the QTE/dodging? I don't have issues with either, but if the combat is contingent on it to the point it renders the turn based combat pointless then I'll pass.

Wait so they don't all smoke cigarettes and eat baguettes? Wtf

Can Anon Babble enjoy a good game that isn't a AAA game as a service with billions spent in marketing for once?

They do and they fuck algerians for free

but if the combat is contingent on it to the point it renders the turn based combat pointless then I'll pass.

It is, I'm afraid.

QTEs aren't terribly relevant, for the most part it's just a damage boost. A few skills fail if you whiff, though.

Dodging/parrying is very important, but you can level health and defense to mitigate it. And the turn-based aspect still matters a lot since most characters require at least two turns of setup for max damage

vee rees about derivative games

game comes out that tries to be a little different but wears its inspirations on its sleeve

the first reaction is to relentlessly shit on it

sincerely hope you get those pills you desperately need for the neurotransmitter deficiency. i know it's hard being a teenager and even harder deigning to enjoy something instead of hating it

normgroids that don't play jrpg are praising this while shitting on actual jrpg

This is the part that make people shit on your game. These same normgroids are now asking for every jrpg to be like E33 becaude its the best thing evaaaarrr!!!

They want jrpg to be less anime fuck off you dont like jrpg you are a outsider that want to completely change and ruin a genre of game that werent made for you

Are you shillers allowed to say nigger?

Build synergy is considerably better. Parry comes in clutch for counters and what not (although some of the strings are annoying to find a consistent timing for, esp the Merchants), but most of my damage comes from setting up bursts.

Ar tonelico 2 had a kind of similar system.

JRPG stole everything from Wizardry.

Hey now, for like a day or two after the board came back from the hack, the threads about this game were quite lovely. But alas, we can't have nice things.

one of my favorite games last year was Romancing SaGa 2 Remake, and RS2 is one of my favorite games of all time. E33 is top-tier.

QTEs for dodging are very relevant on hard mode, and IMO it adds a lot more flavor to the game that way. It forms a large amount of how you defend against attacks, but the game quickly gets much more complicated (ie damage nullification isn't simply about parrying telegraphs). they did a good job developing the complexity while also closing out the game before it got repetitious.
I could future takes on the idea turning it into something that would easily last you the duration of a 100 game.

can Anon Babble enjoy a good game

No...most of it cannot.
They literally think Todd Howard reselling a game over and over is a good game.

QTEs don't really matter, there's even an option to turn them off.
Dodging/parrying is very important in the early game. By midgame you have a lot of options to mitigate the damage, be it through buffs, shields or just straight up stacking health.

I really liked it

Anons also liked it on day one

It's popular so now it's bad

Yeah alright cool let's talk about eceleb drama or Twitter drama

All held back by an antiquated and obsolete gameplay system that should have stayed in the 90s at the latest.

jrpg genre has hundreds if not thousands of derivative copycats

one game comes out that isn't made by japanese and isn't a complete copycat either

NOOOOO IT HAS TO BE JUST LIKE MY OTHER ANIMU WAIFU SIMS

Retard

Disregard this, I suck cocks.

The game has difficulty options and I'd say up until quite near the end you're not required to nail parry/dodge on normal but it certainly makes the combat more engaging to go for them.

The final 10% it feels like the damage scaling finally overtakes the standard levelling speed so you start having to build towards tankiness or just parry/dodge consistently.

Personally I jumped down to easy for the final two boss fights which also increases the parry windows because I was engaged in the story and wanted the climax more than the brick wall.

Why is this 15 year old girl on the verge of violently raping Gustave everytime they interact? And how is Gustave somehow not sensing danger?

IBPy0yE.png - 970x641, 578.47K

best art direction of the year

Lol, no.

that's her brotherdad, she would never

Who let one of these doofs in?

If GTA6 continues the Rockstar tradition of "every game after GTA SA feels worse and worse to play because all you do is give instructions to an NPC and the game then decides the most cinematic way to display it"... then we could look at a situation of even GTA6 being unplayable to normies, because of how unresponsive the controls are.

It's why I dropped RDR2 after 4 hours and didn't pick it up since (luckily I got it for only 5 bucks in a sale). The game is not fun to play because the biggest opponent in that fucking game are the controls.

NOOO STOP MAKING FUN OF YOSHITPISS

why do you faggots think that final fantasy slop is all there is to jrpgs?

Why is this 15 year old girl on the verge of violently raping Gustave everytime they interact?

She is in the peak ovulation cycle of her life and the french are based and don't shy away from this being the reality.

Gustave was too pure.

If there's anything JRPGs taught me, it's that daughterwives, granddaughterwives, grandgranddaughterwives and grandgrandgranddaughterwives are always thirsty.

make a thread about it next time

FF16 is not a jrpg either its a westernized garbage game

hater marketing the game harder than anyone defending it

Pajeet detected.

Yikes. [snap]

has no idea what platonic and familial love is

Wow Anon Babble easy with the trauma dumping there.

>best soundtrack of the year

this i can agree with the world song is stuck in my head

For me, it's the vocal song of Flying Waters
The french chanting in the background has been stuck in my head for the past few days

I'm sorry I think your new favorite game is kinda uggo.
I'll play it eventually, but, I'm not smitten with the visuals at all.

Absolute nonsense, have a (you) regardless. Faggot
Can turn it off in the options, takes a while to get the correct window to parry etc. also not every can be parried, you have to dodge/jump over certain attacks

There is no reason for turn-based video games to exist in 2025. You have a medium capable of full real-time interactivity and you expect me to be satisfied with this shit?

Nobody cares about your opinion on this, anon.

there is no reason for apples to exist in 2025, oranges are objectively superior

plays Fortnite and anime slop

thinks they know what art is

Shut up zoomer.

anymore

this anymore is over a decade old already

Holy projection, Batman.

Thanks anons. Sounds like Shadow Hearts-esc, might give it a try.

Pirate it first if in doubt, thats what i did. Bought it after playing 3 hours.

If 33 can reach me, a very old and set in their ways kind of gamer...then its reaching a lot of people.

Who the fuck talks like this?

Honestly the biggest thing putting me off is the UI. The amount of shit on the screen urks me, and it does a disservice to the game.

If you really want to not bother with parrying stuff, don't hesitate to put a few minute points in defense / vitality. It was enough for me to get a fuckload of leeway on failed parries even on bosses, and you get relatively quickly your first defensive buff. Have fun!
You should try to do them anyway because "Expedition 33 performs a counter" is satisfying as fuck

Lmao

I unironically think its gonna be a sweep akin to BG3.

there were plenty

You can talk about video games you like without sounding like some paranormal shill entity like th OP

Frontier 2 is great but E33 is legitimately one of the greatest of all time

Maybe you are too young to remember the goty awards lost any and all credibility ever since overwatch won.

the battle UI isn't that bad once you're actually playing (actually feels a bit smoother than Purse Owner), but the inventory/equip UI is actual dogshit

I agree on:

best soundtrack of the year

best visual style of the year

best new IP of the year

best VA performance of the year

Best RPG is hard to say for sure right now, there's still the possibility of Nintendo announcing a new Monolith JRPG for the end of the year since Xenoblade 3 was announced only 5 months before its release and there's still 7 months to go.
Best narrative is iffy too, E33 has like no progression in its story for most of its runtime, there's just physical progression towards the paintress and character interactions making the bulk of it.
For the best art direction, its "only" usual JRPG environment designs but with a more realistic approach so it's not that groundbreaking but it is beautiful.

Get hyped up to play it

Play it

Boring as fucking shit

Refund

Thank god for steam, I guess I have too much testosterone to enjoy it or something. The garbage music playing when you enter combat, the basically insta-win if you successfully parry attacks, the goofy enemies.. wtf is this shit

Yves might put his thumb on the scale since this game makes Ubisoft look like shit

the basically insta-win if you successfully parry attacks

That only works through like half of Act 1, after that you actually have to think about your build.

goofy enemies

Par for the course for JRPGs.

garbage music

Shit taste.

>Play it

no you didn't ;)

No matter which game you play you give money to the french since the oblivion remake was make by virtuos in paris.

On the off chance someone here actually played the game.
I've just unlocked swimming and wandered about checking out the optional stuff, and got my ass handed to me by chromatic enemies.
My party is 23-ish and that was enough to effortlessly kill the lamp boss (Sciel literally 9999'd him), but I really struggle with every optional one (inb4 get gud).
Should I just leave them and come back near end game or something?

Leave them and come back later. You'll want to leave the exploration for later anyway, as you don't have the ability to dive and might not have access to the move which breaks glowing roots.
Also, if you do side content, the main story will become too easy.

Personally I'm just glad the game shat on modern ff and squaresoft. shove that rt combat up your ass

Leave and comeback later. Honestly you would enjoy the game more if you push main story quest only until you get 9999 unlocker (as you probably figured it exists due to how absurd some enemy HP is.)
The reason for going straight for story is because some middle game story fights are an absolute kino and with side-progressed group you will stomp them.

Can't go back to Persona after Metaphor

Can't go back to Metaphor or JRPGs in general after E33

I

She's so cute.

lets compare a new IP from a small dev to 30 year old franchises with very well stablished fanbases

Are you serious? These games sell millions just because of the name. E33 was probably expected to sell less than 1 million by the devs, and was on gamepass to reduce the risks of a big financial loss. Also, it prob made profit already, so it is a big sucess.

in true jrpg fashion this game should get 15 sequels and spinoffs

Never before have they been so central to the battle system as they are in Clair Obscur.

Paper Mario 1+2
Superstar Saga
Mario RPG

Literally in all of those categories, bar maybe new IP. But even that one too if you think about it.

This. Praising a videogame does not happen naturally. Everyone is like me, a jaded faggot piece of shit, otherwise they're shills.

You should like a surface level enjoyer of JRPGs There are lots of them that play nothing like Final Fantasy, get a grip.

It's a french term for monochrome painting using light and dark only

No it's not you fucking pseud, it's simply the use of contrast light & dark in a painting. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiaroscuro

Just like Wukong bro lol. Crying at the Game Awards.

Why does it matter if anyone remembers it? I thought you faggots said the gotys were for normalfag generic mass appeal games but now they’re not? Make up your mind schizo

Sekiro won, as will turn based Sekiro. You lost, tranny.

Welp.
I suppose you could say I was cheating. But then that fight just isn't fair so why should I play fair?

It actually only has cute girls. Even the non-important girls in the Prologue are cute.

Everybody point and laugh

It's great innit? All the vague dialogues that initially seem like they were pulled from some Nomura/Nojima fever dream game finally make sense. Great payoff.

I love both games so I can only win.

That's a good example of typical Anon Babble woke/antiwoke spam, versus whatever the fuck is going on with the french game.
All these threads, all this pretending, and it still had 1/2 as many players as Goydom 2

You and your mate? Did you lad? Did ya go and refund it boss man? Dya go and order a muchy takeaway box with with your mate Declan as ya watched the footie?

I'm sure you have the sources to prove it cost under 10 mil kek

I'm level 28, should I not be here? It's where the main quest is telling me to go.

You should play the remaster of Bravely Default that comes out this June.

see the hype everywhere

check out any stream

its mideocre looking game with overly stylized adhd inducing action camera

This shit is what BG3 haters claimed BG3 to be.

Baldur's Gate 3 unironically, it's a rather similar game production quality wise, just larger and more polished. No action elements though, it's pure turn-based, but you can move your units around like in XCOM, set up traps and sneak attacks and stuff, it's not just mash attack like in Japanese games, there's a fair amount of complexity.

Why rush it? You need to be 40+ to get there. Did you do the other Axon first? It's easier.

Just got to ACT 3. Where should I go now? Everything kicks my ass.

do maelles relationship quest

Judging by what I've seen so far (gestral village) the game seems fantastic but it's honestly too hard for me, even on easy

Yeah I already got the other Axon. am I that underleveled? I was just following the main quests

rockslop winning anything

Cope

The game keeps dropping and dropping in difficulty as you go along. I'm in Act 2 breezing through the game on expert, when I struggled a LOT in the early game.
Use Maelle to win the arena and abuse her broken weapon.

You are underleveled for sure.

Linear games are boring. Might as well watch a movie.

So let's be real, it's:

>best RPG of the year

>best art direction of the year

>best soundtrack of the year

>best visual style of the year

>best new IP of the year

>best narrative of the year

>vest VA performance of the year

>best art direction of the year

Am I missing anything?

Unless the industry is mandated by law to give it to GTA 6 it's pretty much got the GOTY on lockdown too.

The story is linear (but let's be real, how many games can pull off a proper nonlinear narrative) but you're very open where you can go, especially once you unlock swimming.

Baldur's Gate

More polished

Nani the fuck

E33's facial animations are indie af compared to BG3, and I love both games.

Don't forget the rock throwing animations, they look goofy as shit. Which is not a good thing when multiple emotional scenes take place when Maelle and Gustave are throwing rocks.

Oblivion was a bad game 20 years ago, and it's a bad game now

have you tried playing the game

do the relationship quests then go straight to the final dungeon (Lumiere). Doing much else will overlevel you and make the final boss a joke.

its a great game, but the parry/dodge gameplay fucking sucks ass

What was the last game that had this unnatrual shilling? Something like Wukong springs to mind.

You weren't white 20 years ago and you aren't white now.

Oh sure, as long as you are talking about animation rigging/mocapping then by all means.
I just can't agree in terms of the actual game. BG3 may have had a bigger map, but that shit was a fucking mess the moment you left Act 1. Like a serious bug ridden, half choices broken, half cut content, half your party members unfinished pile of nonsense with absolutely no cohesion to what worked or what didn't anymore.

post hand

Do conspiracy theories bring you comfort from the fact you can't enjoy things like normal people anymore, or is it just a gag reflex from all the dicks you are choking on all the time?

Fucking hell it's so obvious that the shilling is forced at this point. Discussion around this game is permanently ruined for people who actually like it but want to have honest discussions and not just a stupid circle jerk

Fuck it's so hot how flat she is

This AA game (new IP, new studio, with barely 30 devs) isn't doing the same numbers as this massive AAA game (from an established franchise, with enormous budget and manpower) therefore it's shit!

Sometimes I wonder how monkeys like you can operate a PC or phone when you are this fucking stupid.

Not if you think games should be well designed but yes if you think movie shit is cool

People actually fall for this bait

Anon Babble should've stayed dead

Aw, look at you trying

I just meant in terms of soundtrack, which you probably could've figured out through the context clues of responding to a post talking about the OST

You're so american it's not even funny.
