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
Claire Obscure is an incredible game.
First of all, the atmosphere is exceptional. I was completely immersed in its universe, thanks to the magnificent environments and an outstanding soundtrack (crafted with great care). The mood fits perfectly and evolves as you progress. I’d especially like to mention the Siren zone, which
What an amazing game. You just ha e to work out timings and blocks and your on your way to a fantastic game
One of the only JRPG that I actually enjoyed.. or is it more of an FRPG? Either way, its an amazing well written masterpiece with such a moving soundtrack and a gorgeous belle Époque art style. It’s got a story that pull at your heartstrings and takes what seems to
There is not much more too want.
The endgame can feel repetitive.
I feel they could have exploited the combat system better as you tend to reuse the same skills over and over for exemple.
This is quite easily my GOTY for 2025, it is such a beautiful game in every aspect. The combat is continually fun, it looks and runs amazingly, the soundtracks 27 and counting weeks at the top of the classical billboards speak for itself, and the story is just magnificent. It
This game is an art in every aspect, and the characters in their plot incarnation leave a very strong mark on the memory. I even call this game not a "game" in the broad sense of the term, but rather a very magical, vivid moment of life that is impossible

El mejor juego, la mejor historia, la mejor banda sonora que he visto, jugado y escuchado en años!
Absolute masterpiece. 10/10 in every aspect of the game that matters, not been this enthralled since Final Fantasy X.
Top notch story, world, characters, voice acting…
But FOR ME - just couldnt enjoy the turn based combat system- kept giving it a ‘arcade-y’ vibe which downplayed rest of the amazing aspects of d game. I know its well executed turn based combat system within its genre type - but its
Once in a while we are getting lucky to play gems! This game is one of these gems!
The story, the plot, the music, the graphics, the fights and the whole universe is one of its kind!
A must play and must have game.
Even if you don't like the turn based fights,
This game is an art in every aspect, and the characters in their plot incarnation leave a very strong mark on the memory. I even call this game not a "game" in the broad sense of the term, but rather a very magical, vivid moment of life that is impossible
Simply one of the greatest games of all time. One of the best gaming experiences I've ever had, and the story is top tier.
