Clair Obscur does technically have an NG+, though I’d say it’s less of a focus than in Souls games. There is, however, quite a bit of foreshadowing and pieces of the story that you won’t understand on your first playthrough but that hits different the second time through. I personally opted to consume it by watching others play after I completed my own first playthrough, but I’d say there is grounds enough for a second playthrough if that’s important to you.
Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 or Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?
BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 1 day agoI like replay value, but music and atmosphere is very important to me.
Can you replay Clair Obscur?
How’s the soundtrack for BG3?

Unfortunately for you both are great in both. Though bg3 music is mostly atmospheric and 33 has multiple songs that went in to my regular playlist

You can replay any game, of course, but Clair Obscur’s gameplay is mostly on rails with basic JRPG combat repeated over and over again, so I wouldn’t bother. (Honestly, I found the gameplay boring within a dozen hours or so.) Its music is where it really shines. You could buy the soundtrack alone for a fraction of the price.
BG3’s atmosphere is good. The soundtrack IMHO less inspired than Larian’s previous soundtrack and not really outstanding like the one in Clair Obsucr, but still decent. And as a game, BG3 has a lot more to offer.

Less inspired soundtrack?
Lives, all mortal lives, expire
Souls go to their dooms
In flame, forevermore
That song is fire.

Good to know, thanks.
