Added Clair Obscur into my top 9 GOTYAY. For a game that doesn't have that many choices you can make (role-playing wise), this game made me doubt everything i"m fighting for towards the end. I delayed everything because I can't decide what to choose. That's how good the game is.

PROS:
(+) 3 nibbas in a row combat with real time dodging, parrying, and QTE's for enhanced results. Classic turn-based combat that doesn't get old.
(+) God-tier music/soundtrack. No dull moments; even the rare silence of the music made an impact.
(+) Story is something to experience. For something so simple, they made me care a lot for the characters. Will literally make you doubt everything you believe in.
(+) Good difficulty progression throughout the game, especially if youre not into sidequests.
(+) Very rewarding exploration
(+) The world building, in and out, was outstanding. The game has me reading a lot of lore because of the questions I had/have. Really want a sequel BUT I also want it as a one and done because of how good the ending is.
(+) The characters are all relatable, unforgettable, and well written. Something that has been lacking in today's characters. Be sure to help them throughout the game.

DEPENDS ON THE PLAYER
(?) The combat is more on the challenging side so I can see casual gamers being irked about it but it is very easy to follow.

♥♥♥♥:
As of now, I can't think of a flaw and this is no exaggeration. For a turn-based RPG, they did all the right things possible.

10/10
