About
Once a year, the Paintress wakes and paints upon her monolith. Paints her cursed number. And everyone past that age turns to smoke and fades away. Year by year, that number ticks down and more of us are erased. Tomorrow she’ll wake and paint “33.” And tomorrow we depart on our final mission - Destroy the Paintress, so she can never paint death again.
We are Expedition 33.

Intriguing story + Amazing soundtrack + Surprisingly interesting combat (although turn-based) and a lot of optional content and bosses
There is NOTHING about this game I don't recommend! Story grips you, the Controls are greats! There is so much to explore and you will spend hours playing! Highly Recommend!
One of the most enjoyable gaming experience from start to finish. Vibrant and creative world, compelling story which is well told, satisfying turned based combat, characters that feel alive, top tier voice acting, looks amazing, absolutely worth your time. I knew before playing the game that I would enjoy it. I had seen little bits of game play and heard the buzz around it. Even knowing all the hype, it still surprised me how enjoyable and well crafted this game is.
One of the best games I have ever played from both a narrative and gameplay mechanic standpoint.
美术和音乐都很顶级,玩法也还不赖,后期有点数值崩塌 剧情方面高开低走 总得来说是款好游戏,也对得起年度最佳,只不过包揽的奖是不是有点太多了= =
作为JRPG来说,格挡和闪避实在是占据了游戏内容太大的权重,尤其是一些格挡失败就全员暴毙,以及一场战斗格挡几百次的BOSS甚至小怪,最开始玩的时候尚能谈得上格挡的爽感,但越往后越只有频繁格挡的疲乏和格挡失败重新开始的无奈。 但是作为一款JRPG,上乘的音乐,具有特色的美术风格,极具表现力的战斗画面,又让人没法忍心点下这个“不推荐”,游戏的剧情没有远征的恢弘和史诗,但充满情感的故事也称得上是带有法式的浪漫主义色彩,所以对于这款游戏的评价只能说是简简单单的四个字吧——不对胃口
Absolute cinema.
Peor que el sexo (todavia no lo pruebo y no hablo del juego).
