To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Sciel's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into her characterizationher personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funnythey say something deep about life. As a consequence, people who dislike Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 truly are idiots; of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humor in Sciel's existential catchphrase, which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now, just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Sandfall Interactive's genius unfolds itself on their monitors or television screens. What fools how I pity them. And yes, by the way, I do have a Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes onlyand even they have to demonstrate that they're within five IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. --- Super Smash Bros.

There's no way Expedition 33 super fans can be the most annoying when Final Fantasy super fans screaming that expedition is proof that the entire franchise needs to go back to turn based battle systems also exist. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

I think I see why the topic was made. I consistently see takes like "oh it is revolutionary for the genre and has such gripping characters and story when all others don't" when...no. It's a really good game but it is not revolutionary, aspects of its story have been done before, and there's tons of RPGs that have well-written characters. It's an (admittedly great) RPG that appeals to people who hate anime and won't want to touch RPGs as a result. The game can be praised without putting it on such a pedestal, however. --- Game collection: http://www.backloggery.com/bakonbitz Gaming channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwVQm69J7bGScbv3_50C0dA ...

It's a really good game but it is not revolutionary, aspects of its story have been done before, and there's tons of RPGs that have well-written characters.No one is saying the "when others don't" part except the toxic minority lol Aspects of every story has been done before, but the thing that makes the game amazing is the execution and the fact that it's a love letter to all the RPGs that came before it. The devs have talked about how much they love all the influences to the game, final fantasy, persona, etc. And it's that appreciation and amalgamation of great design choices that drives the love for the game even more. They've stayed humble and never claimed to revolutionize the genre. --- You've buttered your last biscuit, pardner. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Mad-Dogg posted... *What feels like every single fucking time expedition 33 is brought up in online forum conversation*These people make the same argument for literally every turn based game that does well. It is not specificallyE33 fans doing this, its salty FF fans that attach themselves to any game that proves FF SHOULD BE TURNBASED Ive seen it for Metaphor, P3, SMTV, literally any popular turn based game will get these people to do this. Doesnt even have to be specifically JRPGs because they did it for baldurs gate too. E33 is just the latest example because it sold particularly well for a JRPG inspired game --- Hee Ho ...

ssb_yunglink2 posted... These people make the same argument for literally every turn based game that does well. It is not specificallyE33 fans doing this, its salty FF fans that attach themselves to any game that proves FF SHOULD BE TURNBASEDYeah, that has what has been annoying me for the longest time now. Literally every single fucking jrpg style game. It can be a indie rpg like sea of stars, chained echoes or cosmic star heroine. As you said every single time a new persona drops, a new yakuza like a dragon, SMT, dragon quest, whatever. A lot of this stuff like persona 3 reload and like a dragon infinite wealth was just modest successes instead of being huge block-busters type sales. (Since FF7 Rebirth's non-existent sales numbers is always used as "proof" that the game is a super duper dumb-truck failure. Square said "it didn't do as high as we hoped"........womg fawkin' bankrupted square). Its some dumb-ass action-based vs turn-based war thing that is never-ending because some people can't fucking move on that one older classic jrpg series wants to try something new. I'm sick of it god dammit. I swear I really like what expedition 33 does and I am glad I managed to cop my nice lumier edition for this really good indie jrpg style game, but people on the internet get so annoying it almost makes you want to start hating something just via association, lmao. If I have to see yet another "duuurrrr, lookit my BIG BRAIN take. This indie game that happened to use a turn-based timing battle system sold really well. See square-enix, SEE?!?!?!?!?!? You should do *insert what this rpg does here* For your game!!!" (completely ignoring square-enix still does plenty turn-based rpgs like fantasian neo dimension, dragon quest, octopath traveler, bravely default, and is committed to giving ports that has been enhanced like chrono cross, super mario rpg, saga frontier 1+2, etc.) I'm telling you I am going to develop a program old-school SMT devil summoning style that allows me to back-hand people over the internet. https://imgur.com/zR07Mxf --- GTag:MadDogg730 PSN:lMadDogg NNID:xMadDoggx NS friend code:5313-0564-0819 Go buy cyber shadow like right now. ...

I'm like 99% sure every person being obnoxious about E33 hasn't actually cleared act 1, if they've played it at all. weird thing about modern gamer culture that infuriates me constantly. (that being said barring a curveball of some kind it absolutely should win as many awards as it can get away with) ~ The lesson Square needs to learn is not "games need to be turnbased again", like if you compare raw sales numbers like a joyless asshole they sell just fine, the lesson is "budget like you have a team of ~30 people (and a dog)". 'cos it doesn't matter if you sell 3 million copies of final fantasy when that final fantasy cost you *billions* to make --- Why not go all in? ... Copied to Clipboard!
