CLAIR OBSCUR: EXPEDITION 33 | [ALL CUTSCENES - PART 3!!] | THE TRUE ENDING?!

The game of 2025 that kept me on my toes. A story that wasn't predictable. A world that is not the full picture until... you've left the frame for a different view. My game of the year in 2025.

My review for CLAIR OBSCUR: EXPEDITION 33 - Chef's Kiss S+

I hope you enjoy this extra long video, a whole hour extra for you guys to enjoy and the final part of this epic 33 person developed title.

As I type this message, I'm listening to the soundtrack... enough said!

Kai!!! There is so much more to the game! More cinematics, deep story, and a more fleshing out of the characters from the side quests that were not all shown to completion here. I replayed the game over to do them all, as they are easy to miss, and it adds so much context to the ending and story! I highly recommend you grab those too or experience them yourself when you personally play. They are so worth it, the character side stories from relationship development that is.

Picked Verso's ending myself. much better. i personally don't see any logic in Maelle's ending. its selfish tbh, Her ending really shows the immaturity she still possesses, and the exact reasonings behind Renoir's actions. she never plans to leave, she "thinks" she can, but in reality it has too much of what she desires that she can not have in the real world. 100% back Renoir/Versos reasonings *also, if they didnt show, the reason Esquie knows Sciel, is because after her husband dies, she swims out in the middle of the ocean to, "end it", and all she remembers is waking up back on the beach in Lumiere. but Esquie found and "saved" her. hence the "hello, my little swimmer friend"

The soundtrack when you fight Renoir the second time (when you reach the Monolith) is one of the best battle themes I've heard on a videogame, simply lovely how it goes perfectly with the fight, and thr lyrics are literally the story of the game up to that point. I literally cried on that fight

Hope we get to see your reaction to Verso's ending once you finished the game! And as many have echoed, GOTY easily.

I think we all went for a loop!

Agree!

Glad you loved it! Picking Maelle is wild though...Verso is definitely the correct "good" ending, worth a look on YT if you haven't yet. Also worth noting, the Renoir that killed Gustave and the for the majority of the game was the "fake" painted version.... it's true he did not want to be erased, and therefore was stopping the merry ole expeditions. The real Renoir was just a father and husband looking out for his family as they were struggling with grief. 10/10 game in my opinion, I can't recall ever playing a game that truly exceeded expectations in every conceivable way possible. GOTY for me, if not, decade.

You know what's really funny is that to me it looked like everyone at the beginning were in a painting when the expedition went after the Paintress. Everything looked so abstract. So that's how I saw the second and third acts. And then it just the story just totally threw me for a loop.
