i just read up on THE move... ffs guys
i think this is the first time i'm genuinely struggling with a boss fight in this game in a way that's not just the fun parry timing learning curve
#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#so i am literally already dead in this scenario...!#this boss was designed from hell and i kinda hate it but i also kinda love it?#i'm not sure if i'm gonna keep going with it though#...who am i kidding of course i'm gonna keep going lol

sandfall... guys... i just wanna talk
i think this is the first time i'm genuinely struggling with a boss fight in this game in a way that's not just the fun parry timing learning curve
#i don't even know what the fuck happened there... what?#how do i... counter that?#.......what?#i can't believe maelle did 19 million damage for all that shaking my head#i might need to look up what the fuck was that i genuinely don't know if i can defend against it#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#the good news is that i managed to parry at least once everything except the long attack#that one's tricky af especially since i usually bomb his phase 1 before he starts using the regular version lol

changed my mind, this is actually totally learnable
i think this is the first time i'm genuinely struggling with a boss fight in this game in a way that's not just the fun parry timing learning curve
#have i managed to parry any of the longer phase 2 combos yet? no but i can totally do it#i parried like 5 of the light speed attack the other time and i'm getting longer and longer on the long combo#and sometimes i parry like 3 or 4 of the sword of lumiére attack so we're getting there#i can totally do this without some more big brain respeccing#(and by big brain respeccing i of course mean putting the already tiny amount maelle has in health and defense into speed and damage lol)

#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#i mean it's hard to learn combos made of like a dozen moves when the first hit kills you#and i can't use my usual mitigation tactics because this guy eats my shield#and respeccing to put more points into vitality and defense feels like a waste of time when one of his extra moves is to reduce my hp to 1#it's not even his regular move it's just an extra move he does sometimes on top of his attack#also i need to get through his phase 1 every time first#god maybe this is something i do post game? if that's an option?#idk if i can get back to these areas after finishing the story or if doing this affects the story outcome in any way#and yes i know i could try dodging it first... i think i'm gonna sleep on it#i still have some build ideas i wanna try

i actually really love the game mechanics with the pictoses in this game. it essentially gives you the option to respec your character on top of the already existing and easily accessible respec option, and that's without mentioning the passive effects which are also freely swappable at any point to adapt to any new builds on the fly.
peak fun to me
#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#now did i just click on what felt right most of the time? maybe so. but... you know. i love going back and realizing the synergies#turns out empowering parry is kinda goated when combined with a bunch of counter attack and other damage multipliers#and now i actually gotta start thinking about this shit with some of these optional boss fights

so... i found this guy
#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#insane fight even at my level#definitely need to tweak my pictoses at the very least#i do have some concerns if i can parry some of these combos#and my whole build is just supporting maelle to do insane counter damage at this point so that's a bit of a problem

the game: are you SURE sure that you wanna do this fight?
me: pft, how hard can it be?
...
me: oh
#i did it though!!!!!! had to do an insane amount of single hit damage but we did it!!!!#god that fight was so fun#...well fun might not be the best word given the story context but you know what i mean!!!#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers

i think maelle's counter attack damage might be broken in my build lol
#i don't even know how that 1.8m damage happened that was insane#i was ready to sit here for hours learning new attack patterns and chipping away at these guys' health#and then she just obliterated them#like i have all kinds of pictoses increasing damage for counters etc but that was a lot#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur expedition 33 spoilers

me when it dawns on me not only why maelle's skills are fire based but why sciel has a dark affinity

clair obscur character levels are really just a wall of shame of which characters are neglected from your party
#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#monoco i'm so sorry king i'm totally gonna do an ng+ hard mode run where you're in all the time#you can also tell that verso is not usually in the party the game just swapped him in and i let it be for now#and i'm obviously using maelle for all the duels even though she's the only one with no healing skills lol#god i love this game so much i'm gonna spend like 30 more hours NOT getting to the endgame i can already tell

i love that exp33 is still trolling me about the gustave-verso connection by giving me gustave's haircut etc., but it does pose a very important question.
do all the men in this game look the same because:
same character models with minor tweaks
[spoiler] [spoiler] [spoiler] [spoiler] [spoiler] [spoilers] [spoiler]
or
french people are just like that
#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers#as usual no one answer if there's a further twist answer for this i still haven't finished the game#esquie can fly and dive now we have loads to explore before heading to the endgame!!!!#even though i'm probably already absurdly overleveled especially now that i equipped the pictos that can do 9999+ damage lol#i'm considering upping the difficulty but i also love bullying my enemies ngl

yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh
#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#i can't believe the game told me that i unlocked 9999+ damage only to be disappointed when i actually met an enemy#would someone just do that? lie?#anyway i'm sure that if i actually had that unlocked this would've beeen a piece of cake but we clutched it out anyway!

finished act 2 of expedition 33, that was crazy
#and here i thought i got spoiled a bunch i didn't know shit lmao#mse's playing clair obscur: expedition 33#one thing i will say though is that it's weird that the playable character in camp didn't change with act 3#like it's a very minor thing but idk... weird#and for that tag alone i'm just gonna add#clair obscur: expedition 33 spoilers

electronic arts more like electronic we hate dragon age and do not want people to be able to play our own games
#i go to a vacation for a week and by the time i get back the game isn't starting once again#this is fucking absurd#mse's playing dragon age 2#i am so serious about looking into if pirate versions need the fucking useless app

dragon age 2 is running again, which is great, but it's also pretty fucking concerning that i couldn't open the game for 2 weeks straight because EA forces you to use a launcher app to play their games - even if it's a 15-year-old game that doesn't need online support - that sometimes just randomly malfunctions for literal weeks at a time. big video game companies are truly some of the worst of the tech industry and that sure is saying something.
#mse's playing dragon age 2#anyway i'm a bit bummed that leliana didn't show up later in that dlc but i'm guessing tallis comes back in later games?#very much sounded like an anders situation
