        No game can ever satisfy everyone. But just because it wasn’t for you doesn’t mean it’s not one of the greatest RPGs ever. I didn’t enjoy clair obscur like I thought I would, but I’m not gonna pretend it’s not an amazing game.

          Oh yeah I fully agree that no game can satisfy everyone.

          It’s just that, before playing it myself, I never heard a bad thing about it so I might have expected too much out of it.

          Still I enjoyed it, even if it’s not a game I’ll recommend to everyone.

          Chill out he said it was great. And I also agree with him, its not a masterpiece like everyone is making it out to be.

            I’m quite chill… just pointing out the difference between fact and opinion. And besides, who gets to decide what is a masterpiece and what isn’t one if not “everyone”?

        Same.

        The writing wastes a LOT of time. Yes, I get it, that’s the vibe they want to set, but the vibe was set like 5 minutes ago, and all you’ve done since is print synonyms for “drunk asshole.”

        It’s also paraded as pro-communist media, and it really isn’t at all. People are so capitalist-brained, that any game which places communism and capitalism on equal footing, pointing out the faults in both and mocking them relentlessly, is somehow “pro-communist.” In particular, the games plot-relevant example of a die-hard communist is not someone to aspire to. Neither are the capitalists or fascists, but that’s kind of the point: it’s hard to say it supports any political viewpoint when it shits on everyone fairly equally.

        Honestly, I wanted and expected a lot more out of it. Particularly in the ending.

        Though it was absolutely worth the playthrough. It’s a fantastic game, just not this pinnacle of writing the way the internet plays it off to be.
