Clair Obscur: Expedition 332025

First of all, those who do not like turn-based fights may not be happy here and still: Listen to me why you should maybe play it anyway. It is now less and less common in the gaming landscape that a game comes along with a fresh, relatively unused setting. A game that had flown under the radar for a long time and so much. This game thrives on its unique story like hardly any other, so I want to almost avoid spoilers. The game has a wonderful artstyle, French-inspired and accompanied by one of the most fantastic soundtracks I have ever heard in over 30 years. If I say that I did nothing in a boss fight for 5 minutes because the music was so good, everyone who played it will immediately know what the talk is. The story is told fantastically, unfortunately a little stretched but with incredibly sympathetic and approachable characters a plottwist that comes on but as unexpected as if you get full throttle or slap in the face. If I had to complain about something, it would be 2 things: As briefly mentioned above, the story has slight pacing problems in the middle and since it is, at least for me, so carried by the story, it has relatively little replay value. But in sum: Play it, try it, it is one of the best games of recent years
