    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Either midway through Act II, or at the end of Act II.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Yes, I think there were some other production partners involved for other dev aspects, but not a lot. So while saying "only 30" people made the game, it wasn't a LOT more people. Still quite the amazing accomplishment.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Yes, he does, but he is also doing what I've seen a lot of other reviewers / streamers / influencers do, which hyping up the "made by only 30-ish" people over and over. This isn't quite true, as they outsourced chunks of the game to other studios.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Act 2 takes the longest amount of time to finish by far

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    These are the two which really stood out for me while playing, was really disappointed when the overworld music changed in Act III: The other being the boss music.

    The First Descendant

    A little preview of butt physics, along with boob physics shown off during a recent discord Q&A, pretty funny.

    I believe so. The last save I saw was well before the final encounter.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Decided to finish the game, rather than running around the open world getting smashed most of the time. Luckily the problems I had in the open world didn't carry over to the last section of the Story. Great ending fight sequences, and great final. Very well made game. Saw a streamer using Sciel...

    Use the hotfix nVidia put out a few days ago, seems to fix that issue. NVIDIA Support

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Dunno, I think having the proper gear to have Maelle / V do the most dmg possible is mandatory, not sure what setup to use with them atm. Act III seems to negate any difficulty setting below Expert, imo, given the amount of damage mobs do in those areas and the amount of HP they have. Just an...

    Understandable to a point. The difficulty seems out of whack, imo.

    Right.

    This comment makes me question your intelligence, tbh. The term "rule 34" has existed for a long time, and for a reason... its massively popular. Prior to that, it was print magazines. ;p

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Finished Act II, starting Act III, but maybe I'm too much of a pragmatist since I don't currently see the point of the purpose in Act III because:

    For those with 50 series cards and having lighting issues, apparently there is a fix out by nVidia that updates the most current driver to 576.15: NVIDIA Support

    More like Bards Tale / Various Amiga games / Doom / Quake / EQ / WoW / Various MMO's / Various other stuff. ;p

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I never played those games, never had a SNES or PSx til PS4. I think the first turn based rpg I ever played was Honkai Star Rail. That game made at least think about playing others, thought about trying Metaphor ReFantasio, but haven't yet.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Rather than trying to label the game as a "jrpg", I think it would be better to just describe it as a turn based rpg, kinda like bg3(?).

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Should just have to enter the zone to have get named on the world map. There were several zones with "Danger" on them when I went to zone.. but noped out before going in and they never got named until after I actually entered the zone, got my ass kicked and left til later.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Of course, that is how journo's / influencers stay relevant, gotta generate interest. In regards to this game, I think the hype is appropriate. I wouldn't call it a "masterpiece", but it has definitely been much better in every way than I hoped. So, I'm happy with it.

    Turning off DLAA on the Steam Deck? That should be native resolution without any upscaling vs. DLSS which would use upscaling. Unless the Deck handles things differently.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Skip Persona, it's daily JP highschool stuff plus the pokemon battles. I'd recommend playing Metaphor ReFantasio, or this game.

    Yea, same here. Not sure if this would be a spoiler, but just in case:

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    All the guys are overperforming because there are a few fuckable ladies working with them, no fat blue hairs detected. Guess that is the secret to success. Also, where is the guy who put in so much bloom and brightness. Shoot him with a spitwad.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Still pretty early on for me, but I use Wildfire, Thermal Transfer and Mayhem.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    She is like 15, you have to deduct 18yrs rather than 9, since she ages 1yr and the clock dwindles by 1yr.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    You can run DLAA and get smooth gameplay, the 50 series is overkill for this game, at least with my 5070ti experience. The bloom / super bright fog just kills the experience for me though. Good and fun game, tbh. Though I'm playing on PS5 Pro.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    The amount of bloom, or explody light is less on PS5 Pro, but even there it is a lot more than I prefer. The game says its Pro Enhanced, but there is no way to really see, imo. The Quality mode is 30fps, and Perf is 60 but with so much light/bloom it kinda washes colors out even on an OLED.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    The QTE part is mainly for your own Skills to do more dmg, and you can enable Auto QTE for those. The defense stuff isn't a QTE, just reaction / timing as in any action game. So if dodging and parry are not your thing, you might have issues here.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    About an hour or so into the game now, past the Prologue and into the real shit. The lighting engine is pure ASS though. No amount of messing with settings has resolved this type of shitty lighting: The amount of Bloom is stupid, it just explodes everything. I've adjusted every setting remotely...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I'll have to agree with @Lenas here after watching several streams. The game is clearly in is Alpha state. Whether they have the capacity to alter the game much between now and its release, I dunno. It definitely needs more time in the oven, but I think the games eventual failure at not being a...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I bought a new system about 3 weeks ago; 5070ti. Game seems to run great (High+ settings on 30 series and up). I usually consider getting a game on the ps5 first since I have a nice OLED tv for it, or I did when I only had a 3060. haha.

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    I apologize.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Been looking forward to this, but I'm not trusting the main libs reviews. Was going to get it on the PS5 Pro, but caved and got it on PC to how noisy I can my new rig to get, lol. I see ACG changed thumbnail for his review from "So Many Fu**ing QTE's" to "Review". I take it he didn't like the...

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    Wait... do some of you think the character models in this remaster look good? Really? These are on par (at best) with stuff in a game like EQ2. The reveal trailer made it sound like they redid the meshes for all the npcs, is that wrong?

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    I think I played Oblivion for maybe 20 minutes then noped out. Watched the reveal trailer and was shocked at how bad the character models were, like why even bother? Most everything else -looks- OK, but why not do the world a favor and outsource character design / reworks to China or Korea, get...

    The First Descendant

    Yea, that is one of them. Its hilarious because if a female uses it, its blue with a smiley face, but if a male uses it, it turns red with an unhappy face. The other emote lets 3 characters line up behind each other while bobbing up/down/around out of sync. If its just one character, that...
