It is no secret that Claire Aubskur: Expedition 33 has been a major success, given that developer sandfall interactive and publisher Capeler interactive has announced that it is already a million vendor (despite being available on the game pass). However, how does it compare other JRPGS, though?
According to our analyst friend RYS Elliot, which was often shown in special interviews on WCCFTECH, it is selling very fast, at least on steam. Elliott, who recently left Media Research to become the head of market analysis in Alinia Analytics, Talked to gamesindustry.biz Regarding the stunning initial sales of the game compared to metaphors like Triple-A Games: Refantazio and Final Fantasy VII rebirth:
Clair OBSCUR: Expedition 33 is a certified hit, officially selling more than one million copies. The announcement said that the players arrived – it was said that copies were sold. This was an option, and I appreciate transparency. It is worth noting that two of these are ports, but the data still speaks volume for how much gamers are attracted to 33. There is also a possibility of a low price point, as our steam data suggests that many players cut the pill when AAA goes on sale and falls below $ 50.
The same playstation does not apply to sales, where the final imaginary VII rebirth is sold four times faster in the launch. However, Claire Obeskur: Expedition 33 is still ahead of the remaining pack. In addition, losing to the final fictional VII rebirth on Playstation is not surprising, looking at the huge promotion around that game before launch last year.
In the above mentioned interview, Elliott also pointed out that many JRPG fans were waiting for such a realistic JRPG, even with their turn-based match, unlike the public statements of Square Enix on the matter:
There was also an opening for a modern, realistic -looking JRPG. Clair OBSCUR: Campaign 33 has given something to RPG fans that they always wanted. If you asked the final fanciful fans from the late 90s, what should be the ideal version of JRPG in the 00 00s, it will be something like this.
The reference is quite clear. Back in June 2022, the final fictional XVI manufacturer Noki Yoshida openly stated that it is becoming difficult to mix turn-based combat and realistic graphics because they create a sense of ideasinkracy among some players. In fact, that game strictly focused on the action-based match, brightened the traditional twist-based system of the series.
Although I individually do not completely disagree with Yosida’s assessment, it is still a place for a turn-based match, especially if it is re-created with major innovations such as Claire Obeskur: Expedition 33, including real-time dodes and pariaries.
In addition, this special game is very good on almost everything, as mentioned in WCCFTECH’s 9.5/10 review:
Clair OBSCUR: Campaign 33 may not be the most new role playing the most new role, but its main elements come together beautifully, provide an emotional journey that is attractive and fun. This may be the first campaign of sandfall interactive, but the French developer has shown that it is passion and chops that creates a memorable experience for a memorable experience, if it is not a award, it is not.
