Join The Deepest Dive On Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
🕑 Added 2025-04-16 16:07:20 +0000 UTCWe're back and excited to tackle another big game with The Deepest Dive! MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Jacob Geller, Kelsey Lewin, and Haley MacLean are launching a three-part game club discussion on the new RPG from Sandfall Interactive called Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. We're feeling good about this one. The game is releasing on PC, PS5, and Xbox on Game Pass, you can get a good look at the gameplay here to determine if you're interested.
We want you to join us on our journey through the JRPG and Sekiro-inspired experience by submitting comments for us to read during our discussions on Patreon and by unlocking the podcast version at the $5 tier. The game releases April 24th, and we're collecting your initial thoughts on the game in a Patreon post going up on April 25th, we know it's a tight turn-around but we have travel coming up that week and it forced our hand. The stopping point for the first discussion is when you get a fourth character, roughly 6-10 hours into the game. You don't need to be at the stopping point before your submit a comment. We'll be recording our first discussion on Twitch on Sunday, April 27th at 7:30pm Central and then it'll be up on YouTube and the bonus podcast feed on 4/28/25.
Part 1 - April 26th - Stopping point: When you get the fourth character
Part 2 - May 10th - Stopping point: After dealing with both axons
Part 3 - May 30th - Stopping point: The end of the game

Do we post our comments on this post, or will a new one be created specifically for comments on the deepest dive?

I nearly ate so much crow on this game by counter picking it for Fantasy Critic, and instead, I just ate some crow from AC: Shadows.

I’m playing the game right now because I know this deepest dive will be a special one!

If you're on PC or Xbox, you can check it out via gamepass

Man I can't decide if I should get this! Is it like playing a new Final Fantasy? Are the characters fun to follow, and is there enough personality to brighten things up? I gotta hear the thoughts when it comes out

Really excited for Expedition 33, and looking on catching up on the Deep Dives after playing!

I've been weirdly hyped for this game ever since the announcement trailer. Haven't watched anything else to avoid spoilers, so can't say why, but I need to play it. Excited to see the Sekiro reference, as I had no idea about that (and it's probably my favourite From game). Also a bit worried, as I'll be streaming on gamepass (I have no machine that can run it). Assumed it would be fine as I have great internet and it's an rpg, but am I setting myself up to suffer? Anyway, hoping this will be the first deepest dive I can play along for.
