I swear that Ben Starr just makes everything better! Just finished Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Sublime experience! First time in awhile I've played an RPG/adventure game by a developer that understands the science, heart and soul of game development. Easy GotY candidate.

Thanks for not spoiling lol I'm playing through it right now. The game is fucking amazing.

No problem. It's one of these games that you just need to experience to challenge your perspective on the notion of optimal game design. The game will not cure cancer, but I can't emphasize enough how important this masterpiece is to the medium of gaming.
DOA English voice acting with regional accents for everyone, could you imagine? Hitomi with a German accent? Kasumi and Ayane speaking engrish? Spanish Mila? oh what we could have had :/

I've always thought about how awesome it would be if every character in DOA spoke their own native languages and spoke to each other in accented English, I like that effort to provide realism, but I'm just so selfishly in love with Yuko Nagashima's JP voice for Tina that I'd never ask for it to happen XD

I guess Kasumi and Ayane speaking "Engrish" would go somewhat like this. As for 2HC's EN voice acting, I have a soft spot for it. The execution can come off weird half the time (good vibrations anyone?) but the voices feel suitable for the most part imo, its also nice that they kept the JP battlegrunts instead of them recording their own which wouldn't have been good most likely.

lol, it's funny how Hwoarang comes off as the more cringy one in that ending XD
Remember that time when Akira interacted with a bunch of anime waifus? Too bad this game never got released in the west. I know there’s a fan made English patch for PC but I wanna play this on my PS5 lol

dam, I haven't thought about this game in years, fingers crossed it gets the same treatment as Aquapazza where it just randomly gets ported to PC after years of being exclusive to PS3

A man can dream. I always wanted to play this game back then because of Akira's inclusion but sadly they decided not to release the updated version in the West. Guess I could import the Japanese version, but then I wouldn't understand what the hell I'm doing lol. I'm curious what Akira's saying to all these characters.
dam, I thought I was gonna have to wait for the next gen for Microsoft to do something goofy with their prices, but they said "naw, we doing that shit, RIGHT NOW!"

Yeah that's my dilemma too, ideally I want to get one physical copy of all the games I care about, and this gen that was going to be on XSX and Switch 2. But costs are making me think I'll be skipping this gen and focusing in indie/smaller games on steam/GoG, but physical for PC is non-existent these days. Makes me wish, wherever possible, that new games would still release physically on older platforms too.

The other issue is, while I still can't afford a new console, I might have a window to still get an XSX the cheapest I'm gonna be able to get one, probably ever, like you said FoN. I'm gonna need one for the inevitable DOA7, if not NG4. Even if I settle for digital on PC, then I'm gonna need a new PC. And the gaming market is even worse for anyone not wanting to support US and Chinese products these days.

You may not believe this but I used to be a Tina main in the ps3 era! I got jealous of other Tinas getting A ranks back then. I guess I turned heel! XD

A decade later, nostalgia hit me like a HCFT, 8PPP, P+K, PPP, 1PP, 2T! X.x
I've Really Need To Say This, Guys. Ai Nonaka (Honoka's Japanese VA.) Was Planned To Be Appear In DOAFes 2016, But Since She's Unable In DOAFes 2016, Because She Wanted To Focus On Other Franchises Like Madoka Magica, or Maybe She's So Very Sick. But Mai Aizawa's (Marie Rose's Japanese VA.) Appeared In DOAFes 2016 Instead Of Her, That's All.

slowly getting back in SC6 and honestly, I'd forgotten how much I enjoy Talim, still bothered by the fact that she's 13yrs old while rocking a bikini and short shorts, but that's what outfit customization is for, a full shirt and pants for you young lady
all that hooting and hollering about Nintendo being greedy and anti-comsumer with the Switch 2, and yet the pre-orders sold out within hours :/ not surprised though, gamers always seen to have infinite income when it comes to video games, piss poor economy be damned lol

it only sold out in hours? I woke up early on Switch 2 pre0order day in UK and it sold out in literally minutes lmao

Have to say it again, the people that you hear on social media about stuff like this are a very vocal minority, they represent like, maybe 5% of the customers at best, it's only for more niche stuff that their voices are heard and listened to (like fighting games) and even then not in every instance.

If only 20% of the install base of the switch was interested in the switch 2, it would still sell out. It doesn't take much to outpace the production line on launch. The real test comes down the road but since its a straight upgrade they should be pretty safe.
I made an observation between Ayane and Nico last night! I m sure height wise, Ayane is taller than Nico. However, I dont know why Nico's head is bigger unless...oh....
She is a special kind of intellectual! XP

Welp, its OH-FISH-AL! Third character aquired! Her catch phrase should be, "I M NOT A MAD SCIENTIST! I m just pissed off!" And "I BOUGHT SCIENCE!" So get ready to be NICO, NICO, KNEED OUT OF ORBIT! XD
Clair Obscur has two major characters voiced that I'd never thought I'd hear on the same screen. Charlie Cox (Daredevil) and Ben Starr (Clive Rosfield FF16).
Playing through Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and it's crazy how much better it feels than Persona/Metaphor. Sandfall Interactive have managed to craft the natural evolution of the JRPG!

As much as I hate to admit it, the fact that CO:E33 is actually not Japanese is part of the big reason it feels incredibly refreshing.

The crazy part is that it was made by exactly 33 people lol. A dedicated team of people who left Ubisoft France, and apparently is looking good in reviews all around.

Not installed yet but I have it. Might play it this upcoming week.

Well, well, yet another team who left the big company or was released/disbanded soon after the game's completion potentially making a GOTY, relatively similar to the Astro Bot situation. While turn-based RPG's aren't exactly in a bad spot, this game doing well and potentially winning GOTY would be huge, maybe it'll lead to more companies making turn-based RPG's instead of action ones.
Great, The Qureate Related Games Are Also Sale On Steam, Too, Because Of Steam Golden Week Sale. and I Hope Someone's Should Gonna Gift Me Sentimental Death Loop and Livestream 1 and 2 Soon, Maybe Maid of The Dead and Trouble Days.
