Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (April 24, 2025)

The animations and dodge windows are weird to me. Enemies have several unnecessary movements to fake you into attempting to dodge before the actual attack connects. I feel like there should be an on screen prompt.

Jesus fukking christ man. Niccas like these are why games are shyt.

I would take the Metaphor battle system over this any day. This battle system is all about dodging and parrying and the animations are structured to try to bait you into attempting to do so to try and make you fail at it. In Metaphor you can easily restart a battle also. Metaphor is more about prepwork and strategy going into a battle with its job system. You also have MP and it’s restorable much easier than here where you have AP you earn in battle to be able to take actions.

Metaphor is the best version of press turn. I feel like this would be better if I could restart a battle in the battle because much of this is learning the enemy animations and getting your timing down.

only thing the battle system is missing imo so far

Why should there be a mechanic in the basic combat system that makes you invincible?

Give a prompt and have 1/3 reduced damage for a parry and remove dodging from the game entirely.

Because its a game about increasing the skill ceiling for turn based combat.

simply pushing attack over and over again with the occasional item or magic spell has gotten old after 3 decades

I did 9999 with Maelle and Sciel this morning trying to level them up and I don't even know how I did it

Legit got a trophy for it too

Do you have the roulette picto on her?

 

[Zero]

Do you have the roulette picto on her?

Nah. The trophy was actually for using Percee on a marked enemy while in Virtuous stance. Guess 200% more damage wasnt an exaggeration.

Chromatic Troubadour pump faking moveset fukked me up bad would have lost if it wasn't for Lune. Don't know if I'm spec'ing the party right but Lune has been carrying.

 

[Methodical]

I wish they have restart a battle

 

[levitate]

Man, this game is just…awesome. The story, the world, graphics on point, combat system fun asf, soundtrack on point.

Loving everything about it.

Game wasn’t even on my radar…just came out of nowhere.

Oh and Lune looking good asf too…

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

I never thought i would take Lune out the party but Sciel is just too op

once you get a hang of her little zodiac shyts she’s hitting harder than everyone.

 

[winb83]

This 4th person joined my party and everyone is level 21 and they're 15. Game apparently doesn't scale with the party. Probably not using them.

 

[Brief Keef]

Yall better explore everywhere and get those pictos up and put them on the squad

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Is it just me or do all the other characters have synergies except the main dude. He is kind of buns

Yall better explore everywhere and get those pictos up and put them on the squad

When I reach a new area on the world map I fight the hardest enemy I can find over and over until I can kill them without them getting a single attack in. I just find the spot, kill them, go to camp, rest to exit camp and kill them again and again until it's effortless to do. I'm good with the original 3 done need no new people.
