Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

“the games I've been personally enjoying the most are almost all European”

“It's atrocious and my PC isn't even a potato one.”

“E33 is one of the best reviewed games of the decade”

“Which scored as one of the greatest games of 2025”

“was impressed right away by the quality just in the first 10 minutes, hours later and the game just gets better”

“the hints in the environmental lighting about what direction to go in Expedition 33”

“It is a good game in an era where big name studios only care to invest in live-service games”

“The necessity of being able to dodge to survive encounters really killed the fun of the gameplay for me.”

“Clair Obscur has great art (including music) but isn't a greater game underneath it.”

“Combat is too gimmicky and annoying. The story is tonally all over the place.”

“Clair Obscur is going to be game of the year every year for the next decade.”

“the most beautiful works of art I have ever enjoyed”

“All top-tier games (When ranked among all games in history), all recent”

“It runs like dogshit on a Steam Deck, though.”

“Clair Obscur is one of the best and most beautiful games I've ever played.”

“one of the best looking games of its generation”

“Parry mechanic is pretty addictive, and gameplay is kinda fun.”

“Would they be great games even with 15-year old graphical fidelity? Sure.”

“Expedition 33 nailed music, aesthetics, and narrative, and I am glad that they took a diffusion model for what it is”

“The game isn't doing anything wrong but I just conclude that it's work”

“Expedition 33 has my favorite sound track (Or album in general?) of all time.”

“a well crafted world like you'd find in From Software titles or Expedition 33”

“in terms of story and world building it's exceptional”

“its story structure is extremely standard, also borrows a lot of worldbuilding from Dark Souls”

“structurally extremely standard if you’ve played Dark Souls and more than a couple of 90s JRPGs”

“By Act 2 the story was already falling apart.”

“Calling outer wilds or Clair Obscur "not innovative" just tells me you haven't played these games from start to finish”

“Expedition 33 will get you 100-200 hours of excellent gameplay”

“Hades 2, Silksong, and Claire Obscura all being popular examples from this year”

“incredible world building and story, not generated, but created by people with a vision and passion”

“It's a fantastic game, it doesn't have to be indie to be good.”

“won an unprecedented number of awards, including GOTY”

“Sandfall was stripped of the award because it admitted to using AI after the fact”

“Whoops! We forgot to disclose that we ripped off thousands of other artists when we made our game.”

“The game is great and there is absolutely nothing in it that would suggest to the player that AI was used for anything.”

“it was a terrible mistake to release the game in that state”

“It literally is shipping AI generated content in the product.”

“It was a terrible mistake letting placeholder assets get out in the final release”

“the game is 100x better than the slop the big studios publish”

“Clair Obscur doesn't start. I get into the main menu, and then I can't start it.”
