Community Reviews

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a stylish turn based RPG with action game timing, built around parries, dodges, and a fresh combat twist. The story, music, and visuals draw strong praise, and the game is described as packed with content, with runs stretching past 60 hours. The main caveat is that the battle rhythm and story pacing can feel repetitive, confusing, or slow to click, especially if RPGs are not your thing. At $24.49, it looks like a strong value for players who want a cinematic RPG with skill based combat.

  • The combat loop can feel immersive because parrying and timing help drive attacks during enemy turns.

  • The game can offer a long story experience with over 60 hours of content for the deal price.

  • The visuals and music are repeatedly described as beautiful and memorable across play sessions.

  • The game can include enough activities to keep players busy, including bosses, records, and an endless tower.

  • Combat can become repetitive or frustrating when dodging relies on similar actions too often.

  • The story pacing can drag, with many leads and explanations arriving only toward the end.

  • The parry timing and difficulty curve can feel off, with later spikes that use obnoxious or unintuitive patterns.

  • Steam activation may be unreliable long-term if the keys come from grey-market sources rather than the title owner.

I highly doubt this game will change your mind about turn-based rpg games. That's because this game isnt your typical turn based rpg game. IMO this game feels more like an action game. If you enjoy parry and dodge in a action game. You might like it.

People saying it's amazing are also just sharing an opinion. All the people who think it's the best game in years just keep ganging up on people who don't like it. This game's fanbase is obnoxious.

I'd say no, it wouldn't change your mind. But maybe it depends, you don't like any RPG you've ever played, or you tried one and decided no to all RPGs?

Well, I do enjoy Cyberpunk 2077. Is the gameplay similar to that?

No, lol.


It's more traditional RPG a la "Final Fantasy" with some extra battle mechanics than a FPS RPG like Cyberpunk.


Also, friend, just go on YouTube and look for a quick video on gameplay. Confused


You'll know right away if it's your thing or not.
