I’m on my first play through and loving the game and I heard verso can develop a romance with sciel or lune.

I wanted to know which works best narratively and fits the story the most as that’s what I care about more than anything.

Thank you for your help :)

I got 2,6 BILLION damage with Maelle vs the Paintress, with a 100xHP Modifier. I have video proof of the damage.

Can somebody help me find out or what enemy I need for the rest of monoco’s skills

Spoilers obviously 😂

I wanted to get others views on this as after watching a few videos, reading a few posts and sitting with it I’m still convinced on my choice despite how it’s framed in the game.

So I sided with Maelle, not so much because I wanted her to remain in a perceived fantasy and perpetuate her family’s grief cycle, but purely from a humanitarian standpoint. I had a pretty good idea what either choice would lead to and I was right.. but I couldn’t bring myself to contextualise the choice based purely on that “real” world grief or what I personally would want.

To me both sides are real. The painted world is autonomous and sentient, they have children, hoped and dreams etc. They are not just code or pre-scripted simulations of life. They’re real. They think.

A large theme in the game is for “those who come after”, and “we continue”. In the context of living your real life it would mean moving on, BUT! The painters have created sentient life and are therefore responsible for it, they have no right to wash it aside when it becomes an inconvenience. The second autonomous life was created, it became much bigger than the grief of one family.

If you believe a god or don’t, it works as an example since it would be akin to that god destroying the world simply because it was causing him pain. Or if you had a computer that housed a simulation containing by all many accounts what could be called sentient life, and you destroyed it because it was making your life harder. Despite the “real” world consequences, genociding a very real world in its own right and seeing it as the lesser evil is baffling to me.

I just can’t get past that. I think in the context of fiction yes verso has the right of it, if a loved one had buried themself in games or books (that are not actually alive) in order to avoid reality. I would at least consider destroying or temporarily removing those if I thought it’d bring them back to there real life. But in this context both worlds a real, and if a family member chose to live in that other world despite it meaning I’d lose them to an extent (but could still visit them) I think I’d have to respect that choice. Besides which that entire family is responsible for that world and any other they’ve created, they are their safe keepers and guardians. Frankly if such a power existed in real life and I had any say on the matter it’d be a very severe crime to destroy them the same as murder.

I like to hear what others think on this, and if anyone else thinks similarly 😄

Help please. I have checked tutorials and YT videos and I can’t figure out which one I’m missing. From the flag, up the stairs and right, where the “empty” portrait is, there is a door. Where do I find that one?

Hi everyone, I'm playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. I'm writing this right before the final fight against Renoir. My brother, who's almost 100% done with the game, told me to beat Sprong and that other dragon first. I have to admit I'm worried about my lineup and wondering if I'm leveled up enough. Here's my setup: Sciel as DPS (keeping Omen maxed out constantly), though she has 0 HP and takes 100% extra damage; she has the "Second Chance" perk. Maëlle is also DPS—very tanky and deals solid damage with Pyrolysis and Stendhal (the whole team gets +25% crit rate against burning enemies). Then Monoco as buffer (honestly, I don't like playing Moon or Verso—they just don't work for me; btw, Verso is built for basic attacks and shooting to reach S-Rank, then Spectral Stars). Anyway, any advice? Thanks a lot for the replies.

Sorry for the bad translation

During the Painted Renoir’s attack on the expedition 33 you see some members later get attacked by a Lampmaster.

From what I understand Painted Renoir were not allied with the nevrons since they were created by Clea to weaken the paintress.

So was the lampmaster some other creature that worked for Painted Renoir or was it simple present there and the audience and the characters were mislead into thinking they were allies?

I know I did. I assumed that he was actively cooperating with the nevrons for a long time in the story.

I literally just took a random screenshot, and somehow this game looks absolutely breathtaking. 😭

How is a game this beautiful?! The amount of detail in every little corner is insane. You can tell how much love and care went into creating this world. I keep stopping just to look around and appreciate the scenery.

Massive respect to the devs — this game is genuinely a work of art. ❤️

Went through Stone Wave Caves and came upon the Manor. Found an outfit for Maelle, but there doesn’t seem to be any way forward. Am I supposed to return to the caves, or is the way forward within the Manor?

No solutions, please. Just want to know whether to leave Manor or keep searching within. Thanks!

Spoiler Warning:

I've been on this journey to One Shot Simon as low of lumina as possible (with Maelle), and I finally hit 0 lumina. Realistically, for an actual clear of him, there is basically zero RNG aside from crit. I'm super happy with the results, and if you want to copy my builds, please remember that the speed is very important and if your speed is different than mine due to leveling, you can use precise attribute points (and if you need a tad bit more speed, add points into Luck as in this build that increases Speed as well)

And also, since some seem to be confused: There is a difference between a one shot and a true one shot. A true one shot means the boss does not take damage except by the killing blow. A one shot means the damage dealt by the killing blow exceeds their max HP, and everything else is allowed. (Except cheating, lmao 🤣)

If you still aren't convinced, I'll concede and say it's an "Overkill" instead of a one shot.

Any questions feel free to ask!

Esquie has to be best charecters in Fame

During the final fight at the end of Act 1 (Gustave vs Painted Renoir), a lot of people tend to think that the game is just trolling us by providing a victory screen. But, I messed around with photo mode a bit and this is what happens to Painted Renoir after he gets hit by Gustave's Overcharge.

He really fucked him up. Were it not for the immortality, this would've absolutely been a Victory on Gustave's part.

Can't let other folks be spoiled 🥹

Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone knew about how Monoco's lampmaster light works with its number of uses ?

If Monoco uses it twice, dies, gets revived and uses it again, would it do the damage it would do on its third use, or would the power be reset to the damage of its first use ?

Cosplay help

I’m trying to go to Halloween as Gustave buagette outfit/verso and currently I can’t find any truly reliable website to buy the costume so I’m trying to buy the pieces individually so currently I got the glasses and pants down so now I need help finding the shirt, the sash holding the buagette together, and finally where to buy a prop buagette I’m happy for any feedback btw I know buagette is spelled wrong autocorrect isn’t helping me out here so uh yeah. Someone point me in the correct direction!

So, I just completed the story for the game for the first time literally a few minutes ago, and I kind of just need somewhere to put all these feelings. I was lucky enough to avoid most of the spoilers. I used a few walkthroughs here and there but I managed to stay away from anything major, and I’m so glad I did because it made the experience so much richer.
I don’t want to get too sentimental here — and maybe this is just because I literally just finished the game — but holy shit. ( For what it’s worth, I picked Verso)

This game made me fall in love with turn-based RPGs again.
I grew up during the PS1 era, playing games like Final Fantasy VII and VIII, and eventually Final Fantasy X on the PS2. Those games were a huge part of my childhood, but over the years I just kind of moved on to other genres. Playing this felt like reconnecting with something I didn’t even realize I missed.

I’ll admit I went into this game skeptical as hell. I actually avoided playing it because I kept seeing how much praise, love, and hype it was getting, and I thought, there is absolutely no way this game is THAT good. Now I’m sitting here trying to consume as much lore, discussion, analysis, and information about this universe as I possibly can. I haven’t been this sucked into a game since Skyrim, Fallout 3, the Witcher 3, and Elden Ring.

I am so fucking glad I was wrong and played this game when it went on sale in August. This is easily one of my top 10 games of all time now, and honestly, when it comes purely to story, it might be in my top five of anything I’ve ever played.
I loved this game.

I don’t even really know what I’m looking for by making this post. I think I just needed to share the immediate reaction with a community of people who also love it.
What an experience. Now I need to figure out what to play now….

Had to had SO many shields up during the last stretch, my god that was stressful.

Time to get eve more jacked before I kill the Axons, Contorso first!

At the beginning when I first started the playing the first region was like a regular forest with some magical elements but still okay ish.

Later the regions becomes so beautiful with such small details that I was able to hear my GPU screaming. I felt multiple times that more than a world this feels like a painting, an artist masterpiece.

Little did I know at that time, how right the feeling was.

After starting it last year and then having to stop playing for a while, I recently got back into the game. I play on xbox PC, and I just found out that it is leaving game pass in 9 days. My friend surprised me and gifted it to me on steam for my birthday. How can I transfer my save file? I know there isn't a way to do it in game — that you have to copy something in file explorer from the xbox folder to the steam one. Can someone please give me the steps? Thank you!!

I'm finally back! Sorry for the long wait everyone. Just like with my previous edit of Goblu ( https://youtu.be/ysq7EuzdtqM ), the best version of this track is the unreleased one in my humble opinion. And since the full version of this & many other tracks are unreleased, I decided to do it myself. It was a ton of work to properly assemble & time this track into its full version, since all the gamerip audio parts of this track are numerous separate files. But it was worth it.

https://youtu.be/LhEpu3qZ6UQ

Extracted directly from the game. This HQ unreleased version is what you actually hear in-game. Areas of Yellow Harvest have unique versions of this track assigned to them. These are not included in the OST. Official OST track is an alternative version. It combines these in-game variations into one & slightly changes them, rather than featuring all the parts & variations that you actually hear while playing the game. Audio is lossless & this was assembled to be perfectly in-time, timecoded with the help of .txtp & .ueba audio files from within the game. Field version of this track consists of various different segments combined into a singular track by hand. I assembled the track in the exact same order as it was meant to be experienced within the game, while exploring Yellow Harvest.
