Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is comfortably one of the greatest games of the year, and it's little wonder when it was inspired by some of the best JRPGs of all time. The team at Sandfall Interactive has been open about how their turn-based game has been influenced by the likes of Final Fantasy and Persona, so it makes sense that creative director Guillaume Broche is so pleased about the title's acclaim in Japan.
Speaking in a recent interview with Denfaminicogamer (which we've machine translated, in addition to translations provided by Twitter user @Genki_JPN) Broche once again mentions how much Japanese games have influenced him, and explains: "I feel more pleased that the game has been accepted by people in Japan than I do about it receiving acclaim in any other country."
