90-94 baybeh

Tomorrow cannot come soon enough! Gonna enjoy playing as Robert Pattinson.

 

[Trilobit]

Wow, it's getting great reviews. I hope it comes to Switch 2.

 

[Zacfoldor]

I can't fucking believe it went back up to 92. What a damn game. These people should be so fucking proud. It makes me sad thinking they were probably looking with despair at the oblivion timing when they absolutely fucking cooked with this.

Gratz to them man, that's all I can say. 100% legit. I am shocked and delighted. They pulled it off and we are all the better for it. Great job gents.

 

[TGO]

Still can't believe this cost me £41 physical.

 

[Edellus]

Anyone knows how's the performance and image quality on a PS5 standard? If it's too rough, I might wait to play it until I get a PS5 Pro.

 

[Zacfoldor]

Also, this proves that late embargo doesn't = bad game.

Also, turn based making a comeback in western development! First BG3 and tons of cool isometric stuff and now Clair Obscure Expedition 33. Do we have something we are calling it now? COE33? Bring it on. Between this, srpgs and jrpgs and the new star wars tactics game we are eating good turn based enjoyers!

 

[Digity]

Just pre ordered it. Only $64.99CAD too which was nice to see.

This thread is a clear indication that reviews influence purchasing decisions.

I want to know who voted 65-69%, expose them now!

 

[MISTER INVEIGLER]

I'm excited to play it after all of the great reviews.

I was planning to buy it even before the reviews. I expected low 70s tbh. Seeing high scores is nice.

Bought and preloaded on PS5, got the deluxe edition after seeing the Noisy Pixel review.

There's this saying of "voting with your wallet" that gets thrown around a lot when talking about the state of AAA gaming. Now's the time to "vote with your wallets".

I looked at the deluxe edition but you don't seem to get shit for it so I'm just going with the base game. Wish these publishers would give a bit more for these deluxe editions.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Way ahead of you this time, bro




Meanwhile.....

You have no right to have such a good memory at your age

 

[Digity]

I wouldn't say best RPG in 20 years but it looks good so far

Love the Res Arc guys.

 

[KimDongHwan]

Turn-based Gamers, we are back!!

 

[AngelMuffin]

This wasn't on my radar until last week for some reason but looks fantastic. I could use a good turn-based RPG after working through Lies of P & Khazan. No more parrying!!! Oh wait…

 

[Northeastmonk]

I'm surprised. It looked good, but in that certain way where you question a good looking trailer. Takes me back to Lost Odyssey/Folklore for some odd reason. Ordered a copy on Amazon. My poor wallet

 

[nnytk]

With the PSN discount it was 53 euros and I got 4 gorgeous skins and an incredible game at a fair price whilst supporting the devs a tad more. I'm fine with that

 

[WaterOnix]

Higher scores than I expected! I so rarely buy games at launch any more but I'm thinking this has to be an exception.

 

[peronmls]

Uninspired probably isnt the word you are looking for.

Try word your critique better, cuz from everything ive seen of this game calling it uninspired is nigh literally the opposite of what this is.
From some more spoilery reviews the later worlds and abilities are actually even more creative than what we have been shown so far.

I literally told you I'm not sure. That something is off. Someone replied that maybe it looks bland. So yeah. It looks bland and does everything we have already seen in video games. It grabs a bunch of ideas from other game it looks like. You can still love the game.

Watching the trailers and the combat videos, there is nothing bland about this game or the story. This is one of the freshest ideas I have seen in a while both from a gameplay and a world design mindset.

 

[Last Hearth]

Higher scores than I expected! I so rarely buy games at launch any more but I'm thinking this has to be an exception.

Last game I bought at launch was BG3, just bought a key at cdkeys for this.

 

[MrSmooth]

Had no idea about this game! Looks incredible.

[Grizzled Ghost]

I wanna get in on these preorder deals but I'm gonna wait to see how it runs on a 2080

 

[GermanZepp]

I don't like frenchs or France, but this look like a good place to put a few bucks aaaand send a message to all aaa corporate studios

 

[Retrofluxed]

Picked up a copy of the deluxe last week on cdkeys, can't wait! Glad it's looking like my decision to get this is going to pay off.

 

[TropicanaTwista]

I preordered last night as it was on sale and I had a hunch it was gonna be good. Better than I even thought. Launching below $50, then getting a sale on that was a no brainier for me. Now hopefully the reviews are justified

 

[Liopleurodon]

Think I'm gonna try to learn about Belle Époque before playing this...

 

[Arsic]

This OST slaps so hard....the song is stuck in my head

Giving me that nier depression ost vibe.

This and death stranding 2 are likely going to be competing head to head for my GOTY.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Not the type of game I'd play but the production values look solid. Never heard of Sandfall Interactive. Their first game and according to wiki the dev team is only 30 people.

 

[princelashawn]

This is what we have been waiting for! Lets Get It!!

 

[Draugoth]

Got the standard edition for $40 at GMG, let's hope this is as good as reviewers say

 

[DaleinCalgary]

Wowza

 

[Raven117]

Giving me that nier depression ost vibe.

don't you tease me

 

[Synless]

Been excited for this one. Glad to see it deliver.

 

[Success]

But they aren't in the media, so the MC score can't be boosted by that.

You must be new to the games industry.

To help give you some perspective, there was another game called Concord.

If you look at that game you will see the Anti-Woke in media.
