>>1388160 Hope you honed your abilities in the base game on expert, anon. Also, what's your party level?

>>1329719 >Irastris someone uploaded his version on gdrive. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1H2OflHQOwSR4d32ch2enkdEFsQq330Cw?usp=sharing comes with addons for bigger tits and ass and micro bikini

I'm ascending.

>>1399124 Kralim is great.

i love how gaymers use the term "romance" the "romance" in these western games is one of your party members randomly coming up to you and saying "Hey want to have casual sex?" >yes >no

>>1274143 Revenge.

>>1371720 >>1371773 Got him. Also is the mask keeper supposed to be renoir or at least an embodiment of him? He said something similar to what renoir said in his entry about art and masks

>ew wine is yucky do we have any apple juice? is maelle supposed to be 16 or 6

I've just noticed that Lune is left-handed. >>1402944 Good job, mon ami. As for your question, I think you'll understand later in the story. If I tell you now, it'll be spoilers.

>>1403977 Seems out of place for the French. Maybe they did it because of the US market.

>Steals all shields FUCK That's been my WHOLE strategy since Part 2. I'm fucked. Guess I'll try not being 1hp.

>>1404610 Probably to not promote the idea of drinking to underageb&s, but I think its also so people don't fanfic a drunken Maelle sleeping with Verso for a Pseudo Incest moment

>>1405746 He steals all your health, too, what the fuck.

I drew these.

>>1407042 I wish people werent so keen on taking down all maelle's mods. even this non nude one got taken down. ENTIRE WEEKS after its been up and has had thousands of downloads. any anon here got the files to share?

>>1416794 Nexus Mods is so awful now. It got big and is trying to morality police everything.

>>1417991 These people worm their way into everything good and destroy it from the inside out.

>>1391769 My guys were 66 when I started NG+ and I missed the mime in the prologue area again. I like the first 10 seconds of this theme where it does Monoco's meme phrase https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilJI6CyRrao

I've been trying to beat Simon and failing over and over, so I decided to leave and go after the other stuff on the map and come back later. And I just killed Sprong in line 2 minutes, what the fuck. The power gap between these fights is nuts.

>>1426868 And now I killed the snake, hahahaha. This is silly. I guess I need to cheese more.

going to need to take a long long break from parryslop after this game

>>1432775 Once you work out a good build and team synergy the combat does get repetetive.

Clea whispered in my ear and my sword got bigger.

>>1416794 Found this link in that tweet but I haven't tested it nor I can guarantee it isn't dolphin porn https://x.com/RealMarcFoxx/status/1928557674494406783 https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ovpcJ1cNM2WpqUTkHgVT375MeuRA53QK

Is the part of Endless Tower behind the trials just for show? A NG+ thing? Ran out of dev time?

Ladies and Gentlemen...we got him. Guess I'll go finish the game.

>>1446157 Well done. I gave on him on attempt 3 yesterday. Just can't work out the timings on the phase 2 short combo. Those are some insane numbers as well fucking hellfire

>>1446651 Is that 9mil from Hellfire?

>>1446861 No, that's a Sciel boosted Gommage. I can get about 2m tops on Lune's Genesis.

It's nice that you can run around the world after beating the final boss. I wasn't aware that would happen. I didn't experience any challenge since I went for the superboss first and got all geared up for it. I also entirely missed the Flying Manor, so GUESS I'll go do that now, but I'm ridiculously overpowered. The only thing I don't understand is do the painters not age while in the canvas? 67 years is a long time.

>Go in expecting an Expedition game. >Start was okay. Sophie disappearing was ehhh, they didn't build up her character. >Get to the beach, man in suit kills everyone. >WTF. Stuck with Gustave now. He's okay, just kinda mopey. >Tries to kill self. In comes best girl Lune. >Her stains remind me so much of a Kineticist from Pathfinder, easily able to clear mobs with Wildfire and Elemental Genesis. >Find Maelle. He's okay, just kinda there as a character. Fire and VIrtuoso stance are the way to go. >Find Sciel with the Gestrals. Her dark abilities are great but her character is so-so. >Fight the Lampmaster. At this point I've been grinding a bit so I'm 5 levels ahead of a mod that ads LV to place names. >Man in suit, Renoir shows up again. >"I'm doing this for your sake." He says to Maelle before killing Gustave in front of her for some reason. >Okay.. plot is going downhill fast. >Meet with Verso. He seems... shady. Don't care for his fighting style, it's just Gustave+ >Go through the battlefield. And then the snow area. >He recruits Monoco by saying there will be lots of fighting. Marvel tier dialog. Monoco's fighting style by copying monsters I really like. Jar area attacks and dark arm bonks forever stay in the wheel. >At this point I have alot of questions. Go through old Lumiere and Renoir comes again. >Verso acting strange. Get this strange feeling that's going to make me laugh. >"Blah, blah blah. Son." >Houston, Sides have launched into orbit. Have to pause game and come back. >This was the moment the game jumped the shark. >Notice the Frozen Heart, a LV-60 area. >After a few tries, parry my way to victory against the first mob of Danseuse. Get 500k XP and 5 levels. An hour later I have half a million Chroma I by all the Lumina from a mod that gives 999 in a store and am LV 60. >During the Old Lumiere part, Lune comes across Expedition 58's log, mentions an Axom but the game doesn't actually say what the expedition log was nor what an Axom is. >Kill two of those I suppose. >Then goto the Monolith. Keep going up. >Get to the second stage boss fight with the Paintress. >VERSO PULLS OUT THE FLYING ROCK TO GIVE TO ESQUIRE. >"Hey look what I found, lol". >Beat Paintress, game over, now Maelle is Alicia or some shit. Writers and Painters mentioned but what they are hasn't been mentioned in the context of the game yet. And that's where I am. I was expecting a good RPG adventure. What I got was, excellent music, art directions, monster design and even the combat I grew to kiling once I can steamroll people (Golgra will get what's coming to her). The story and characters however, are a millstone around the game's neck that drags everything down. How does this have an overwhelming positive review on steam is beyond me. >Pic 1 is me in Act 1 wanting to kill the Paintress. >Pic 2 - 5 is me becoming more confused as the story went on. To eventually the start of Act 3 and I have no idea what's going on anymore. Also, why can't I kill Verso. >The writers for this game were the game's director and some unknown female writer who has only 5k followers on instagram. https://www.mobygames.com/game/241065/clair-obscur-expedition-33/

>>1472165 >Also, why can't I kill Verso. Pic related. You're in Act 3, so you just saw this. Act 3 is the "big reveal". You'll find out more in like 10 minutes.

>>1472993 >Last conversation with Maelle Verso has is that yes, he did let Gustave die because he feared that Maelle would not want want to leave the painting. >After his 5th conversation where he was angry that Maelle didn't give him time to say goodbye to painted Alicia after Maelle turned her into flower petals. See what I mean by the writing. It really is that bad. >Renoir, we've both lost so much. Yeah, with you killing Gustave for no reason. Notice how Verso is silent during this cutscene. >Verso jumps through the portal. "I'm sorry." Worst. Fucking. Character. Seriously, how can anyone like him. >Lune sits at the portal, not wanting to go over to Verso. If anyone could make it out of the Canvas somehow, it'd be her. And he kicks everyone out of the Canvas. Shit ending. I need a drink. This has been one of the worst stories in an "RPG" I've experienced in awhile. Having come off Lost Odyssey before this, that game is 17 years old and has a much more compelling narrative about family and grief. Even the most basic story in Thousand Years of Dreams wipes the floor with this. Yet, E33 sold well because it attracted another class of gamers, those that unironically love Baldur's Gate 3. And mediocrity gets praised. There was another review that said it was a girl power game and thinking about it, Gustave has no personality, Verso is a whipped little bitch, Sciel uses him for relief and the big bad is the Patriarch of the family that has schizophrenic motives. Yeah, it is. Personal review, don't play it. I spent a week or two on it and it wasn't worth it.

>>1480466 Painted Renoir killed Gustave, not the actual Renoir. Renoir didn't have anything to do with it. Maelle also lost a lot during her 16 years in the canvas as everyone around her would die each year from Gommage, and also losing actual Verso. The Verso and Painted Alicia thing, I don't know why you think that's bad. Verso's motives have been the same forever, which is get Renoir and Aline out of the canvas by whatever means necessary and having them destroy it if possible. Being angry when you lose someone close is normal, but Maelle points out his hypocrisy during that conversation and he comes to terms with it.
