Clair Obscur Official Twitter:
"And here we are.
Three days after launch.
One million copies sold.
Thank you for believing in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33."
WTMG's Kyle Nicol: "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is truly something special, combining some fantastic turn-based combat and RPG progression with a heartfelt and well-told story about dealing with loss and paving the way for the future. It’s one of the finest RPGs in years and will likely be remembered for years to come."
Kepler Interactive and Sandfall Interactive have announced that the turn-based RPG Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has now sold over 2 million copies.
Awesome! All the success is well deserved. My GOTY right now. Damn what an amazing game
I'm one of those 2 million. I played my part. Its a great game. Turn based souls game 😹
Played my part as well. I was probably the first person in my city to buy it. Soon as the shop opened I went to get it.
I’m hoping FF17 is like this, especially with the world map. It’s so OG FF it’s unreal. It’s one of my fav RPGs of all time right now. I’m impressed with really nothing negative to say about the game.
Hopefully we get more high budget RPGs like this one. I would love to see Sony start making turned based RPG exclusives again like the good old ps1 days.
It's a great game no doubt well deserved success but i must say i'm in act 2 right now and i don't quite get the super crazy reception for the game, i mean 9.7 on user reviews on metacritic is insane.. seems a bit absurd.
What do you mean it's not for me xD i like the game a lot. How did you get that from my comment?
“I don’t quite get the reception. 9.7 is insane and a bit absurd.”
Your words.
The game deserves the 9.7.
You are still entitled to your opinion, though.
I swear you internet dweeb love to read things that aren't there. He said he didnt think irs as good as everyone's making it out to be. Somehow you guys are reading "I hate this game"
There is no game for everyone. I’d guess a lot of the reviews are from people who like turn based to begin with but either way it’s a well made game
A lot of tourists and casuals are playing this game. They pretend there were no good turn-based games since early 2000s.
I'm in dame boat. Good game but to me its not as good as people are saying. Writing falls off in act 2. Feel like this game got extra points because it was made by a small team and a bunch of people who think this kind of turn based is completely new. Then there's the issue of the "troll era" where everyone wants to hate the big dogs like final fantasy so they'll latch onto anything just so they can say its better
For a $50 game and done by a small studio, I'd say that's enough to justify the scores. There is no perfect game out there but I believe the game deserves what it's gotten. I am a little critical of some of the scenes and dialogue but the overall story and gameplay really make it up for me.
Just ordered myself a physical copy, but it isn't due to arrive until the 24th May. Gives me time to complete The Last of Us Part 2 (I know, I know, I'm behind the times).
I haven't quite made my mind up yet. I'm not too far in to the game, but so far I'm not enjoying it as much as the first. It almost feels like I'm forcing myself to play through it, whereas the first game gripped me from the get go. I've watched the first two episodes of the new series and I've enjoyed comparing the events of the game to the adaptation, but I won't be watching anymore episodes until I'm further in.
You're not behind, you are a gamer who has a backlog. Believe me you are not the only one. I have a lot a games I need to play. Quite a few are still shrink-wrapped lol. Enjoy Tlou2.
Thanks! Yeah, there's no rush to get to things. Honestly I've not been feeling in the gaming mood as much recently, but I'm looking forward to getting that feeling back.

Congratulations and well deserved. I bought a copy but won't be playing it this year, just have too much lined up to play and I can only play 1 big game at a time.
It’s a very quality rpg so far, the life in the environment, core mechanics, character expressions/details, quality graphics, solid performance. This game definitely deserves the hype.
12 hours in & the game is really good so far.
I'm playing on gamepass but i have purchased a copy on steam this game is soooo good.
Wow nice. Getting my copy soon, but I’m mostly happy because it’s turn based!
