I have a hunch this might be my last post about Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive). Why? Because I just fought a major boss early(?) in the second act, and I hated every loooooong minute of it. I know this is a thing with JRPGs. Boss fights that take an hour, I mean, and… Continue Reading
I have mentioned a few times that I have a love/hate relationship with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive). Now, I would switch that to a hate/love relationship. I know that sounds melodramatic, but it’s a matter of degrees. I have always been very divided about this game. I have said in all my prior… Continue Reading
I know I have written a lot about Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive), and I have more to say about it. I’m stlil playing, but the dichotomy I felt when I first started playing it has only grown. I would say I have a love/hate relationship with the game, but it’s really the combat.… Continue Reading
I’m branching out from talking about soulslikes to talking about pop culture in general. Why? Well, because I can, but also because it’s pretty much the same mentality. What do I mean? I mean I don’t like most pop culture in general. I have specific pockets of things I like, but in general, they are… Continue Reading
We’re talking more aobut soulslikes and why I’m on the cusp of giving up on them. Before I get into that, though, I have to say that I talked a bit with Ian about Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive), and his opinion is more in-line with mine than with other people’s. He’s enjoying it… Continue Reading
I have more to say about soulslikes and why I don’t like them in general. Yes, this was spurred by me playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive), but I’m done talking about that specific game for now. I probably will bring it up later, but right now, let’s just talk about soulslikes in general.… Continue Reading
I’ve been playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive), and I have written several ‘quick looks’ about it. Here’s the last one, which is part four. I have mentoined that my interest wanes with each play session (I can now play for two hours at a time rather than just one, but it’s still less… Continue Reading
Yes, I know that this is not a very quick look at Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive), but I have a lot to say about it because my feelings are all over the (nonexistent map). By the way, I just read that one of the devs was a Sekiro speedrunner before working on this… Continue Reading
I am still playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive) in one-to-two hour chunks. And I still go into every session with a sinking dread in my stomach. I don’t want to play it. But I do want to play it. But I don’t want to play it. But…. Look. I have very complicated feelings… Continue Reading
I’m still playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive), andw I have many more thoughts about it. MANY. I wrote a lot about the game in yesterday’s post, and I ended with the thought that the more I play the game, the less I enjoy it. I am in the extreme minority in this, I… Continue Reading
