This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Expedition 33

Woah. Would you really put Expedition 33 in the same class as the other two? This is the highest indirect praise I've seen of the game.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

absolutely!

it's of course a very different game from the other two but brilliant nonetheless

i dislike turn based combat, i dislike jrpg, but Expedition 33? i adore. the world building, the story, the voice acting- are absolutely incredible. It's one of those lightnings in a bottle that suddenly appear out of seemingly nowhere

Yes. The story is gut-wrenching, the world is rich and engaging, the gameplay is interesting. If I had one complaint it’s that the rare platforming segments don’t quite work… but being a masterpiece isn’t about perfection, it’s about impact, and Clair Obscur hits like a hydrogen bomb.

I would too. It’s just really well crafted world building , story, and side content. There’s so much to do and all of it feels fun.

Really? I've seen Clair Obscura praised as a masterpiece.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago

I heard of people liking it, but imagined it was good for its genre like BG3, or Bloodbourne.

Putting it next to those other two makes it seem like everyone should play it regardless of their tastes.
