Hello, I am Kim Se-min from the first class!

Claire Obscure: Expedition 33!

I'm so happy to have the opportunity to review this game as a crew member!!

Normally, before writing a review, I would watch at least one ending and then write what I felt...
This time, I'm writing this without seeing the ending!!! Please understand.. (Grande)

The average playtime for the game to see the ending is said to be around 30 hours!

This is my playtime, I cleared up to "Ancient Sanctuary".

Of course I will write a review soon and run more. (Real)

I played it for a relatively short time, but I'll try to write down the impressive points in a short but bold way during that short playtime.

Let's take a quick look!

Graphics

Let me get straight to the point.

Honestly, I started playing this game because of the graphics.

As a gamer who really likes subculture and cartoon style, I don't really do these kinds of realistic things.

ex) Games I play : Elsword, Honkai Impact: Starrail, Overwatch, etc.

Games I don't play well : Elden Ring, Lost Ark, etc.

Which axis do you think "Claire Obscur" is closer to?

No matter how you look at it, it's a "realistic" game, right?

The biggest reason I don't play realistic graphic games is because of the 'uncanny valley'.

However, despite being graphics, the graphics of this game gave me a naturalness that surpassed that valley.

Huh? It's definitely a graphic... Huh? It looks like a video of an actual phenomenon taken with a camera... But I don't feel the uncanny valley...?

good night.......

I'd be lying if I said the game had no flaws.

However, I was able to endure the complaints about the shortcomings that will be described later because of the graphics.

But the animation was a bit... there were a lot of funny motions.

(But it was fast and refreshing, so I passed. I thought it would be a really fun mountain moment)

Game Synopsis

You can guess it by looking at the thumbnail and title. It's a number engraved on a giant stone monument.

This is the number of years a human can live. This number has already decreased to 33 this year.

In order to subdue the 'Paintress' who has placed such a dangerous curse on humanity that is on the verge of destruction, the "33 Expedition", named after the number of the curse, is formed and sets out on a journey to stop the curse.

function

You could pause a cutscene you've already seen with E and skip it with Esc.

...Why was it there!?!?

Since I've played a lot of games where you pause with Esc, I didn't even know that this function existed, and I kept watching cutscenes that I had seen in the beginning, dying over and over again, watching them over and over again, dying over and over again (.....)

This is a tutorial video explaining the early battle and the main character Gustav's fighting style. (2x speed)

As you can see, it is a turn-based game, but it has a unique system that allows you to evade or counterattack (counterattack) during the enemy's attack turn.

Usually, the timing for evasion is a bit loose, and the timing for striking is a bit tricky.

The difficulty of parrying was similar to other parrying games I've played (it was hard).

Not only Gustav, but Rune, Mael, and Ciel, who join the expedition as the game progresses, each have different fighting styles.

Gustave the warrior, Rune the elementalist, Mael the legendary fencer girl, and Ciel the Arcana. (I like blue.)

Since each character has a different fighting style, the individuality of the characters is emphasized, which makes it possible to immerse yourself in each character even more!

Additionally, as you level up your characters, you will be able to use more skills, and you can assign skills to skill slots to suit your tastes.

Isn't this the true joy of RPGs?

Obviously, you're playing the same game, but you clear the game with your own skill build.

In terms of convenience

Uh.. first of all, this game had too many proper nouns.

Pictos? Luminar? Nebron? Zestral? Gomazu?
.......................yes?

I was so confused as to whether this was a setting in the game or just a character name.

I felt like I needed someone to explain this word to me so I could immerse myself in the world.

First of all, from what I understand...

Pictos - Basic additional skill item slot

Lumina - An item that allows you to equip additional skills even if the item slot is exceeded.

Nebron - A "monster" within the game world.

Jestral - Residents of the 'Ancient Sanctuary'. Most are in the form of wooden dolls, and their sizes vary.

Gomazu - The "age curse" of the game's world.

Appearance change (look)

As the story progresses, not only the main character Gustave,

I was only able to recruit Rune, Mael, and Ciel (.....) as companions. The character "Monoko" is so attractive that I'm going to write a review and go back to recruit her.)

You can recruit them and form a party. You can form a party of up to three people, and even if the party loses the battle, you can fight a "preliminary battle" (a desperate battle called Wonkozomyo ) with the remaining expedition members.

And if you look at the photo above, the members of my expedition team are dressed up very nicely, right? ^^

This is not a basic skin, but an "additional costume." I'm not sure if it's included in the basic version or if it's because it's the deluxe edition that includes the costume, but as a gamer who prioritizes character design when playing a game, I really like this kind of small costume system.

Why is Mael so bloody?

Haha.. In this game, the less HP your expedition members have, the more likely it is that the expedition will be stricken.

If you look closely, you can see that the Rune on the left has only about half of its HP left, so it has a little bit of blood on it.

Sorry Mael, I didn't do it on purpose (pilot issue)

Three-dimensional expedition characters, friendly/hostile characters with unique personalities

The explanation of the world view progresses very quickly from the beginning. The photo above shows the expedition team right after they left for the expedition.

Most of the expedition went missing (..) and the main character, Gustave, was about to make an extreme choice due to his sense of loss.

This is the point where Rune casts "Wake up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" and gives them some mental education before joining and fighting the first monster.

Each character had a very distinct personality, so the story was enjoyable to watch.

This is the mysterious ghost, 'Curator', who became friends with 'Mael' at the mansion before 'Mael' joined the expedition.

Ah.. this design.,..... It's quite my style. It's so cool..

After the first interaction, he appears as an NPC who strengthens your weapons and stats during "camping".

This is a friend called "Eskie" who can be found from the ancient sanctuary.

He may be big and distracting, but his speech and actions are just all cute.

It's a great means of transportation (..).

You can't miss it in turn-based games.

A monster appears that must be caught using a "special gimmick".

Instead of monsters that you can just beat up and solve, monsters with special gimmicks like the one in the picture will appear. (I've only seen Petanque so far while playing, but I'm going to play with the expectation that there will be more.)

Petanque has 8 shields, and if Gustave Rune Mael continues to pass turns and hit one at a time, Petanque, who takes three turns,

He ends up running away.

So, after using skill points but not counting turns, use "Aim" > "Shoot" to remove the Petanque shield as much as possible.

I made a deal and gave him 1 tcl!

I feel like my intelligence has improved since I started playing petanque. (Or not)

+ You can also meet the 'Zestrals' who live there from the "Ancient Sanctuary". They look like wooden dolls but they are alive. They were wary of the expedition team in the beginning, so they brought a giant potato(?) weapon to fight the expedition team. They had a hard time fighting, but the story itself was really cute. Haha.

An unusual but engaging storyline.

Very natural and beautiful graphics.

Special enemies occasionally appear in Claire Obscure.

These guys are called 'chromatic' .

It's quite a challenge to catch because of its high HP and very, very strong damage.

And usually the first monster you encounter while progressing is the 'chromatic' monster.

This is the 'chromatic spearman' that appears in the title and thumbnail.

When you approach it thinking, 'It looks different...', you often end up with your head cracked by its power.

Of course, I felt the same way....

No, if you get hit once you die immediately, and the blood flow is also very large.

Today I'm going to tell you about catching this chromatic spearman.

As I was passing by, I saw a huge spear.

All the spearmen I've faced so far were weak, so I approached them, saying, "What? Haha."

Looks dangerous?

Don't die, Inma

(Top 1 Reasons Why Men Die Early)

I'll just kill him and continue on with the story.

How much time (1 hour) would you be afraid of a spearman?

?????

My HP is less than 200 but I'm getting 972 damage?

Oh no, what is going on?

This would have been a one-hit kill even on non-expert difficulty.

Let's take a deep breath and... take it slow.

No matter what attack you get hit with, it goes away in one hit?

Then it doesn't matter if it doesn't fit.

The only good thing is that although the HP is large, it deals a lot of damage to weak points.

If you happen to catch him, make sure to expose his weak points first.

After trying a few times, you will be able to see all the attacks.

It just dodges right away.

But... why doesn't the evasion message appear?

No, I definitely avoided it.

It was judged as a hit and a one-hit kill.

It's unfair, but what can I do...? I have to do it again.

If you analyze the pattern, it is because of the word 'avoidance'.

The problem was my mind set on avoidance.

From now on, I will respond only with parrying.

Chromatic Spearman, analysis complete....

Just press the parry button in time with the sound of “boo-woong~” (rest) and “boong~”.

This is also a game tip, watch the boss attacks carefully and learn your own rhythm .

There are so many off-beat attacks that if you don't get the rhythm, it's difficult to beat even for 30 minutes.

And other than the message saying it attacks 'quickly', it flies slower than you might think.

There is enough time to press parry as soon as you see the window moving motion.

I'll just hit you with a counter strike.

I don't know how many times I tried.

It was even harder because if I made even one mistake, I would be rejected right away.

asleep!!!!!

GOOD.

Evasion success 0, knockback success 9. Neat, right?

As I said, I caught it just by parrying.

In reality, just parrying can cause the damage to be pushed back quickly due to the counter.

Here's a quick tip: try to link Gustav's 'Sign' skill well with Rune's Combustion.

Since it is the beginning and the characters don't deal much damage, it would be better to deal damage with combustion.

Don't forget to plug in Gustav's overcharge every now and then.

Today I caught a chromatic spearman.

The reward isn't so delicious that you'll think, 'I have to grab it!' but...

Isn't defeating such strong enemies the fun of RPGs?

Do you guys usually go up against tough opponents like the Chromatic Spearmen?

Then I'll come back to part 4.

From Part 4 onwards, I plan to significantly increase the diary tempo.

Thank you for reading.
