>oh yeah... that happened...
>>722648160what is even that?
>>722648160I've seen genuinely hundreds of threads for this game, and of the ones I've entered, have seen zero ingame screenshots or webms. I'm not entirely unsure if this even actually exists.
>>722648160frog kino
>>722648405It's just press parry button on queue. That's literally it, nothing else matters if you can press parry. A HUGE design flaw one of the biggest I've ever seen even but shills call it good.
>>722648530>game is easy if you can use the mechanicsretard
>>722648160more like OOH YEAAAAH BROTHERR THAT HAPPENED
>>722648530you can complete the game without using real time mechanics
>>722648802Proof you beat Simon with no parry or dodge?
>>722648910i haven't, but there's videos of it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Poy6foApOrk
Is this the oh yeah he's right behind me thread
>>722649004He still used real time events. Doesn't count
Imagine being filtered by a parry mechanic you don't even have to use
>Proof you beat Simon with no parry or dodge?>post proof>ummm ackshuallykys
>>722648160>half a year later>still not a single day without multiple threads>haters still seething on a daily basis>still 10k+ players on weekends, Steam alone
All "no parry runs" are done on NG++ or more. No one beat NG on no parry
it sure did, tick tock
>>722649423it's BG3 all over again

>>722648405You come to every thread to say this, and on multiple occasions I gave you links to threads with webms and screenshots. And reposted my own webms and screenshots too.Also, when there are screenshots and webms in a thread, instead you say that "you've never seen people discuss story", even though we've had dozens of 500+ post threads about story.Here, one of the webms I posted a few times.
>>722648530Why is parry bad though? You will still miss sometimes
>>722649641This is gameplay? Lmao
>>722649673That is a webm made to prove that Monoco can eradicate the enemy on his first turn, if you know what you're doing.Also, put the goalpost back where you found it.
>>722649795Damn, FFX 3 looks sick
>>7226497954 niggas in a row but QTE. the west has fallen.
>>722650039Still better than 4 niggas in a row, but press attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack.
>>722648160I'm glad it did. I'm upgrading my pc just to play this.
>>722648160yeah great game

>>722650775Why are you people like this? Sciel is clearly the hottest.
>>722650992I am weak to red hair since fucking a fiery redhead in high school
>>722648405Sorry, I don't really take screenshots Here's a screenshot I took right at the start of the game cause I asked my friend what the weird blue trees are and he didn't know what I was talking about
>>722651057This except Lune because I was exposed to porn with Asian whores as a little kid
>>722650992A man of taste finally.
>>722649795>finish attacking>character ice skates back to his postTurn based combat is so fucking garbage lol. And it looks especially stupid with realistic graphics
>>722650992I have some kind of face autism. When I see 99% of beautiful women, there's something "off" about their faces. My guess is that I watched too much anime, so as long as a woman has literally any facial features (unlike Korean models for example), I somehow find them ugly.But I like Sciel's design a lot, just not the face.>>722651232It's that or making battles longer, because you need to watch characters run around the field.

>>722651462I can't get over her wide mouth she looks like a pajeetaAnd she also has a husband
>>722648160It was pretty fun OST was the best part. I will replay it eventually
>>722651512Probably.>>722651584I don't go there, I don't listen to it, I don't even look at them. I only know about them because they're sometimes posted on /v/.I'm just saying that, like anime characters, they don't have any facial features. Which, by what I said earlier, should mean they're perfect for me, but for some reason I find them as attractive as a tree.>>722651685>And she also has a husbandWell, I wasn't going to marry her anyway, so I don't mind.
>>722650775Alicia deserves all the hugs and kisses.
>>722648160Did it? You sure about that?
>>722651827>real life>he doesn't know
>Aline tried to abandon her family>Renoir committed genocide for 67 years>Clea unleashed hordes of murderbeasts unto the world>Alicia got her brother killedWhy should I have sympathy for any of the Dessendres?
>>722653953Alicia didn't mean it to happen, she's a victim
>>722653953>Alicia got her brother killedI don't think real Verso is dead.Did that dream sequence really look like a death scene to you? You do remember painted Verso was painted by his mom based on real Verso and he was a lying fuck the entire game.
>>722648160Do you think people should discuss a single player game forever?
>see ANOTHER thread on v baout gayxpedition >must be something to it for it to be so popular >check out gameplays on yt >you're a gay french guy and all the abilities are gigaflashy
>>722654119>clea, aline, and renoir were just pretending real verso died
>>722653953Technically, she didn't get him killed. He killed himself.
>>722654119>Did that dream sequence really look like a death scene to you?Well she's just having a nightmare.There's hints Paris at the end isn't real but I don't think that one is it.
>>722650992a whore? no thanks
>>722654264He obviously faked his death. In the sequel we will be playing as a mysterious dude called Osrev.
>>722654264He fooled them>>722654338What Sciel did before expedition 33 was her business
>>722651589here's a small hint: the ""people" shitting one the game haven't played it
maellebros...
I'm only playing it now hype/shitposting died down. Game is fun and worthy of praise but is not the second coming of Christ normalfags think it is.
>>722653953>>Aline tried to abandon her familyYes. She's the villain.>>Renoir committed genocide for 67 yearsHe's justified. Aline should have considered not creating Lumiere if she didn't want it erased.>>Clea unleashed hordes of murderbeasts unto the worldSee above.>>Alicia got her brother killedShe made a mistake and Verso, being a good brother sacrificed himself. If you want someone to blame for that, the only reasonable target is Verso himself.
>>722655015>Aline should have considered not creating Lumiere if she didn't want it erased.>kill a man>"not my fault, his mother shouldn't have given birth to him, if she didn't want him to die"
>>722655575Yes.
>>722648160>people stop talking about a single-player game>OHH NOO LMAO GAME IS DEAD WHAT A BLUNDER OF THE CENTURY
>>722655015>He's justified.Faggot logic. With godlike power comes godlike responsibility.>wahh, it's more convenient for me to erase it!Tough shit. You don't have that moral right.
>>722656060Why isn't it morally right to erase pixels on a canvas?
>>722655704This isn't even true for E33, there's like a thread per day still. OP sucks cocks
>>722657235Everyone is a Pixel.Even Alicia and Clea.The ''real'' world is written by the writters
>>722648160i'm keen for a sequel, i'm not keen to watch them ruin their franchise by the third entry
>>722657235Because it's a magic canvas and the pixels are alive.
don't respond to brainlets
>>722657430I'm keen for them to make another game but I don't want it to have anything to do with this one.
Why is Maelle's swimsuit the ugliest ?
Expedition 33 is pretty good when you don’t got a /v/ bitch in your ear telling you it’s slop.
>>722657505there are plenty of lore points and questions unanswered (ergo the writers), but what would you want it to be about if not that universe?
>>722657569because they didn't want to over-sexualise a 16 year olddesu all the swim suits looks kinda crappy
I still think Alicia gets unjustly fucked over in both endings, because the game REALLY want to talk about dealing with grief, even if Alicia's issue go way past that.
>>722657635She's 16 out of 25.She's one foot in the grave
>>722657505Yeah. The plot twist "it's a painting" really works only once. And the story about war of magical artists can get stale very quickly, because it's just Assassin's Creed at this point, but with ART.
>>722657687In Alicia's case, this might be literal. I don't think she'll live past 25, with the amount of body disfigurement she has.
>>722657765>Yeah. The plot twist "it's a painting" really works only once. And the story about war of magical artists can get stale very quickly, because it's just Assassin's Creed at this point, but with ART.unless they make you think the second game is unrelated, only to open the curtain and reveal it all ties in together.
>>722657765This story is just FFX but with Inception
>>722657589Literally anything else? Whatever the studio can find passion for.Making sequels is a pretty surefire way to lose whatever passion you once had.
>>722649641If I were to replay this I would make sure to play with Monoco. I only used him in obligatory battles.
>>722657870the story isn't really like ffx except for the idea of an illusory worldi'd be curious why you think they're the same though
>>722657860Nah. At this point EVERYBODY'S going to expect the "it's a book/painting/tv show" twist. You can only pull off this reveal once.
>>722657892You know very well Clair Obscur 2 will be fellated harder than fucking Silksong
>>722657924Pilgrimage to lie your lives down to save the worldMore than that though original concept for FFX was about a plague that kills everyone who turns 17 and the journey was about finding a cure for it
>>722657892Also, I don't think they want to commit to any of the endings (even if they are leaning Verso, which for me it's bullshit, because it trivializes the issue). So they would have to go in some completely non-related direction.
>>722658001Yes, and it will probably make a lot of money. But it will be a net negative for the creativity of the studio.I'm not a shareholder. I don't care what will make the most money. I want them to make something good.
>>722648160oh yeah, that's winning multiple game of the year awards
>>722658000nice digitsi suspect we will get a story that looks very detatched from the plot of 33, but will somehow link back in around the mid point of the game and people go whoaaaa no way this is linked to the painters what the frigit might not be 'in a painting,' but i could see something happening like you're part of a rebel group trying to put things 'right,' fighting against a tyrannical overclass of rulers that oppress people from their ivory manor, only for it to turn into 'you are the writers fighting the dessendres'>>722657892i look forward to their volleyball game
>>722648910It's possible to stun lock him turn 1 and just reapply it every turn. I killed him in 28 minutes with x100 hp without taking any damage and without dodging/parrying. Make sure you're at 1HP and no shields so he doesn't trigger his gimmicks.
>>722649673>I've been in hundreds of threads and never see gameplay>this is gameplay?good thread OP
Yoshi-P is STILL kicking himself and seething that this sold like 10 times as many copies as FFXVI because he thought that nobody wants to play turn based JRPGs anymore
>>722648160aliciafags have accepted defeat so we don't need to have threads anymore
>>722658802
>>722658273does this take a lot of tweaking to get the build to go your way without just completely copying a build 1:1? because I probably need to redo my stats too, and kind of wanted to mess around with all my recolors to see the difference it makes.
>>722658823Still hasn't been debunked
>>722658845Given I was min-maxed, the general strat was sciel would suicide and max break bar and verso would stun spam while maelle spammed Stendhal and gommage. Fill in the lines with that info.
I still think the game presents a false dichtomy. The writers seem to think that getting into grips with Verso's death will magically solve all Alicia's issues, even though it's not even remotely true.Because she's still a cripple, her family still resents her, she still has 16 years of alternate memories stuck in her brain that she'll have trouble reconciling. And then there is her crazy sister that wants to push her family into another conflict as soon as possible.
>>722658802Play the FUCKING piano
>>722658921thanks, that doesn't sound too bad. I was mainly thinking of something like some of the older FF7 weapon cheese strategies that took a bunch of time to setup.
I still haven't gotten to Simon.
>>722648160>looks like slop>is actually good
>>722658845When I was learning how to parry Simon, at one point I wanted to try out how much the "on death" shit works against him, so I had one party member die and break him on death, then I noticed that one of Verso's skills reapplies breakSo no it's not hard or requires tweaking, I accidentally cheesed him without even meaning to
>>722659364Man I would actually have bought Flopspoken on sale sometime if the gameplay was even 1% good. It looks like it's extremely my jam but the combat is apparently boring as shit
Turn based combat is great and I'm tired of pretending it isn't. I'm glad gaming got past the actionslop obsession.
>>722659458Forspoken is extremely boring, it feels good to run around but the world has nothing to run to, everything looks the same and is the same, the combat system is too overcomplicated for its own good and it's over in like 12 hours with no real twists or unexpected developments
>>722659458It's such a boring game no one would have noticed it existed if not for the cringy dialogue
>>722648530wait until you hear about a little game called final fantasy xiii
>>722648160and it was awesome
>>722659741That has a parry? All I remember is switching jobs instantly filling up your entire ATB gauge which breaks the entire game cause you can just switch job and use your biggest attack
>>722659394oh yeah, I don't think I ever really used those much outside just learning it.
>>722659097BASED CLEAWRITERS MUST BE PURGED
>>722658173KINO get this man in the writer room
>>722660034i just expect them to go down the route of misdirection, make it look different but then intersect with the previous story. i'd be down for it though, not gonna lie. a genre shift could also be pretty cool in terms of writing (like imagine playing an fps through revolutionary france ala bioshock) but it would leave people disappointed that an otherwise competent jrpg maker moved away from the style.
>>722648160>parry slopdropped after act 1
>>722660418The main problem is that modern devs can't help themselves when promoting their game, so when journalists asks them if the new game has anything to do with E33 they'd just go "maybe there are connections there, if you look closely enough ;)" rather than just saying no and letting us find out it's secretly in the same universe by playing it>imagine playing an fps through revolutionary france ala bioshockGhostrunner devs are making that game right now, but due to monkey paw it's a soulslike
>>722660558These motherfuckers replaced Verso in every Act 2 cutscene with Gustave pre-release I trust them to play their cards (unfortunately song lyrics spoil half the game)
>>722660558>Ghostrunner devs are making that game right now, but due to monkey paw it's a soulslikeatomic heart did the same thing, i'm just saying that a cross-genre intersection with 33 would be neati don't know enough about sandfall to figure out if they'd leak it, but desu they'd probably want to for the sale capitol
>>722660634Yet every pre-release interview was done by Ben Starr.
>>722660418that'd take serious balls.maybe they can pull it off but I hate fps and I think it's a stale genre, I'd still buy it if they kept the same music+story+writing level and it was something like the first dishonored but it's hard to struck gold twice in a row
>>722658823Unironically how do you replay this game without hating this flaming faggot?
>>722648160e33 is unreal engine sloppa made by talentless faggots seeking to make a game for tasteless faggots
>>722660706Honestly the same problem all one hit wonder (so far) devs have>make same game: it's the same thing again and people get bored>make completely different game: hard to pull off and people might not like itI'm interested to see what they can pull off
>>722660954ok
>>722658823>loads of em-dashesHow about you frick off, lamer
>>722648160can't wait for Clair Obscur: Expedition Zero featuring Verso, Renoir and Simon
>>722661134>frick off>lamerhow about you don't talk like censored faggot, faggot?
I just want to see Alicia in the sequel. I hope she's happy.>tfw Clair Obscur 2 opens with an info that Alicia died shortly after the events of E33 and Dessendre family fell into ruin anywayI guess that would a hook I would be interested in.
>>722658752It's not even close to 2 times the sales though
>>722660418I really doubt it since the director doesn't seem to play any FPS and is a huge weeb. So I guess it'll be still be a "JRPG", but he also said he doesn't like recent games because they are all the same. We'll see how they manage to make it different enough from E33 without being an entirely different genre.
>>722649641hahahahahah entire fucking screen obscured by unrealslop and text and fucking 1/4ths screen Real time buttonslop popupswhere was the enemy in the webmmogged by fucking snes jrpgs
>>722662420My issue is that for the most part jRPGs, unlike the classical Western cRPGs don't give you a lot of space for innovation. So they might hit the wall eventually, unless they'll be risky with the formula.
Broche said he made this game cause he was annoyed that Final Fantasy moved away from turn-BASED so there weren't any big budget turn-based games anymore. It stands to reason he'll at least make one more firstThe next one better not be fucking ATB I swear to god
>>722662564>where was the enemy in the webmoff turn is where it was
>>722649150>asks to see simon beat without parry or dodge>video shows what anon asked for>nooooo not like that
>>722662705I hope they keep the combat similiar but expand the build options and more enemy variety
>>722660774He is literally me fr fr I want to fuck Sciel
>>722648160People stopped gassing it up after the dev got busted using generative AI for the games assets.
>>722662979Enemy variety is the big one, it got a bit silly when I beat my fourth or so Lampmaster in the postgame
>>722662564I was recently comparing Minecrafts Mojang and The Sims EA in a conversation with my son. Both are sandbox style games, both have had a huge and long standing fan base, both are still popular and relevant decades after their first release... The biggest and most significant differences between the two arent the pixalated vs "real" cartoon graphics, its not that one has mobs and enemys and the other doesnt, its that EA's singular concern is to continur making money hand-over-fist on the same game for as long as possible before theyre forced to make a new version, whereas Mojang has continued to upload new and exciting content into their game at no additional cost to the gamers. Ever.I bought my son a copy of Minecraft when he was about 7 or 8 years old for $19.99. At the time it had a few biomes to roam, mobs to beat, animals, farming, building, etc. It was already a very full game with endless possibilities. Much, much later I bought my first copy of The Sims 4 (a couple years after its release for $27 on sale when toys r us was going out of business). Fast forward in time and my son is now 16 years old. Over the years I have spent a disgusting amount of money (to the horrifying tune of $600) on The Sims 4 to expand the world and add content to an otherwise empty game. Meanwhile, Mojang has continued to add new materials, new biomes, new mobs, new animals, and new objectives to their game, releasing these updates at a steady rate with EA's expansions. Can anybody guess how much Mojang charged its users for this content? ZERO. It continues, to this very day, painstakingly working its devs to create new content for a game that will never have a gamer paying a secondary fee for its new content. THIS IS HOW MOJANG KEEPS THE GAME RELEVANT AND BEING RELEVANT IS HOW YOU CONTINUE TO MAKE MONEY ON THE GAME.
>>722648160based hourly E33 thread
>>722648160Basing your entire game around parrying is a shit mechanic and you'll never convince me otherwise.

pro shills I get, what I can't get my head around is hating a game so much you go out of your way to shit on it in every chance you have and nitpicking every little thing, apparently for free, just move on and let people who actually enjoy it have their fun.

>>722665450What I said. They replaced all genAI prototype assets with proper textures.
>>722665552People are really weird about AI. Why wouldn't you use it to do 90% of the work, and then just fix it up to make something human and good? No different than paying a concept artist to make images of your ideas, then turning them into something workable.
