Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Lets keep it at UE5 comparisons. Cyberpunk is years old and Digital Foundry called Oblivion the worst optimized game they have ever played and they tested it on a 5090.

There's nothing stopping anyone from playing this game on PC. It has inherited UE5 issues and there exist fixes for that. It's a PC not a console you cannot simply install and press play. You need know your place when PC gaming. A 3060 is an entry level card. Its not a mid-range card and it sure aint no high-end card. Its for 1080p in modern gaming.

I just read over the Oblivion Steam forums and the game has plenty issues, some the same as 33.

If you don't want to tweak it yourself then wait for a patch.
 
I haven't had any issues on my 3060 Ti with it, the only real bug so far are some audio crackles now and then.
 
cyberpunk epic at 2k on a 3060, thats very impressive for a 3060, unheard of infact. either way. it seems to be a you issue. everyone else finds that it runs great. granted a glitch/issue here and there. but NOTHING as pathetic as cyberpunk at launch
Cyberpunk is not that performance heavy when you don't use raytracing

I don't know where this idea comes from
In fact
I ran Cyberpunk just fine at 1k when I still had a 1060
 
check out what the performance review is. that it plays on 3060 is quite an achievement its a dense beautiful game. Oblivion on my rig runs worse than expedition
Make sure Lumen is off on Oblivion and you will be fine

Sigh. Relatively speaking to other games it is
 
I'm by the Lampmaster now and getting a firm grip on the parry mechanic is vital. Just a pity that I generally suck with parrying.

Thoroughly enjoying the game still

Yeah

Games that came out 5 years ago when it did

Unreal 5 was officially released 3 years ago

Cyberpunk should not be part of the conversation anymore

Platted Sekiro and replayed that so many times but this game is tight on its parries omw.

There's a boss in the open world that requires 10x parries per turn and just about every turn is his turn it was a nightmare. That thing is the reason I grabbed the easier parries on Nexus. I'm an old man not a T1000.

Ok topic carried on longer than needed. You in the vast minority here. Peace out. Let's stick on the games topic lol

i wonder if you're talking about the optional
Chromatic Ramasseur
boss.
he was... a treat, to say the least lol
guy gets stunned like once or twice for like 1 attack then you have to parry everything, and every turn is his.

Grosse Tete
 
When you're told that danger lies ahead, heed the warning

Went inside and picked a fight with the first creature I saw. Big mistake. Had my arse handed to me

Those portals actually change depending on your level which is really cool, I had one that was red and said danger and then when I backtracked a couple of hours later it was just a normal colour with no warning.

I don't want to know what the hell are in the ones that still say danger at my current level.
 
Playing on the Series X and it runs quite well, some stutters on the cutscenes in some places but nothing major. As it's a turn based game, I don't mind playing on quality 30fps vs performance 60fps.

That one was quite a pain in the ass, but also a fun mechanic.

That is the beach at the start of the expedition.

If I can make a suggestion it would be not to explore early game. There's too many things you will not be able to beat nor get to without story unlocks. You are going to see things that you cannot reach nor break for loot yet.

Finish the story and then explore. You can do everything after and go everywhere you want to.

And if you had your fill you can start NG+ from any expedition flag.

Even many main quest areas require 2nd visits because you can be locked into a certain path and after a cutscene find yourself back in camp leaving the other paths unexplored. Some are also so big you won't get the layout at first glance at all.

Exploration in this game is actually amazing. It feels like in Souls games.

I'm following the main path for the most part with a little detouring to pick up odds and ends where I can. Just started the 2nd Act and thought I'd go on a detour and see what is out there. Yeah, definitely not ready for the side stuff. Would you recommend farming easy battles to level up or can you get by just by following the main path?

Still getting used to Verso though. Sciel is definitely my favourite so far

Everyone is OP.

Make it a point to spend an hour to kit out your party. Ensure Pictos are equipped at all times and their effects on all characters as well. They are what makes the difference.

I start with Lune and Maelle 2nd. I ensured Lune is the fastest so that she can clear trash on the first attack. It seldom gets to Sciel unless its a boss. They are all hitting for millions but even then do not for a second think you are going to one-shot bosses.

As far as I saw on YouTube everyone can hit for billions but I think Maelle is leading the pack damage wise.

I would say explore the open world yeah because you have to find the lost Gestrals anyway and finding 5/9 I think will unlock an ability to break things to open paths to rare loot and weapons.

Also, your weapon reward in arenas, quests and bosses depend on which character you fought with.

At the end of act 2 you will have unlocked a traversal skill that lets you reach an endless arena. You can level up there.

Lol that might come in useful. I've only started but dodging seems a lot easier, whereas parries have very short windows...
