BeeRadTheMadLad Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Review

Very good game overall, well deserving of much of the hype. A lot of the overall constituent parts of a masterclass rpg are there - an engaging combat system, a creatively written story that’s not afraid to take risks, a build system that is less intricate than I would like but gives you a decent amount of freedom in how you spec your overall builds, and for at least the first 2 chapters it has excellent pacing. Act 3 is the main reason it doesn’t have a higher rating and even if it doesn’t bother you, you’ll probably at least get why once you get there. Still a very solid game though, one that I have no regrets about completing and may even do so again at some point.
