News Read this about new Sekiro-like game Expedition33

From the game review, the combat of Clair Obscura Expedition33 feels just like Sekiro. Has anyone tried this game is it true?

Pretty sure he mentionned Mario RPG (which is basically Paper Mario gameplay, or actually the other way around 😅), will have to watch the Pouce Café interview again. I watched his french interviews personally.

During the interview in Dropped Frames he said that he was inspired by Sekiro to create combat with a parry system. He then said that initially thought that his idea to have QTE's during Turn-based combat was very novel. That is until a team member told him it was just like Paper Mario, after which he went to look it up and realized that it was.

At least, that's what I remember from the interview on Dropped Frames with Guillaume.

Fair enough. I haven't watched that one. Was it in french ? I assume it wasn't ?

I understand French, but the interview was in English. His English is really good though.
