The game Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, pretty wild success story, huh? (By the way, I’m not even sure why I keep track of these things, but they stick sometimes.) Anyway, so there’s this little nugget—apparently, you can spot Sciel, one of the main characters, doing a bit of a boogie during the prologue. Yeah, she’s one of the dancers. No big reveal or anything, just a neat detail a player, alig200, called out on Reddit. Kinda like when you spot an old photo and find your buddy lurking in the background, right? Just makes the world feel lived in.
And wow, talk about a sales boom! Two million copies sold in just under two weeks. That’s, like, wild. Everyone’s grabbing this turn-based RPG either through Game Pass or physical copies, and guess what? Scalpers, of course, are diving in too. Is there anything they won’t snatch up? It’s like the dance for demand and supply has its own rhythm, and these guys are leading with their wallets.
Now, here’s a funny thing — the director of another game, Stellar Blade, is so into Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 that he basically declared it his Game of the Year. Sounds like he’s sunk 96 hours in and even snagged the Platinum on PlayStation. I’d say he’s a fan, wouldn’t you? Makes you think of those times you dive headfirst into something and only surface for snacks.
But wait, I’m jumping around here. So back to Sciel, who’s not just a dancer; she’s this legit damage dealer in the game. You gotta try all sorts of weapons with her. Each one evolves—kind of like PokĂ©mon but with more drama and fewer PokĂ© Balls.
Anyway, the game’s like this new hot topic, and might just pave the way for future titles from Sandfall. That’s a win for gamers everywhere, right? Well, maybe not everywhere, since I heard there’s one region where it’s kind of flopping. But that’s a whole different story, I guess.
In short? Game is blowing up, fans are loving it, and I’m here rambling about it. Funny how things catch fire like this.
