Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has deservedly gotten a lot of attention for its superb combat system and complex storytelling. But one of the more difficult parts of the game to talk about is the massive narrative twists, which really require the entire context of the game to meaningfully examine. In particular, the first big twist is an ingenious turn that initially feels gut-wrenchingly shocking, but takes on some fascinating new shades with the context of Expedition 33’s ending.
Warning: There will be major spoilers for the entirety of Expedition 33 ahead.
