Why is one dungeon taking me days to clear?

Skill Issue

HollowIchigo25560d ago

I guess they're talking about the first dungeon grand cathedral ,it will take several in-game days to complete because you need to restore your MP, at that point in the game there isn't many items that restore MP and most people won't use the MC mage archtype to grind away for MP points. Still it's not that hard or boring you can literally teleport back to the safe room so it's not like the game forces you to star from the entrance. some people seem too bored to actually "play" a game....

koga88560d ago

No it doesn't. Either conserve your use or swap your protagonist to mage for a bit and beat down the weakling enemies that respawn frequently and can be killed in overworld fightinng. It's not much but you'll get 1 MP back per kill and can easily grind some back if you are that desperate.

...I don't think I've ever ran out of MP except for the very first dungeon that teaches you the game

If you bothered to learn about the game you’d know there’s an archetype with a passive skill that heals your MP..

I hadn't played Metaphor until it was on GamePass and I can tell you I vastly prefer Clair Obscur. That said, I have never been a big fan of the Persona games.

andy85329d ago

Same tbh. I love persona but Metaphor felt dated to me personally. Expedition 33 definitely felt fresh.

CrimsonWing69329d ago

I could not get into Metaphor, whatsoever and I’m a huge Persona fan. I feel like Metaphor is incredibly overrated, but… and I know this is blasphemy, but I think Clair Obscur is slightly overrated as well.

I think that was on me though because everyone said it was the best thing since sliced bread and when I fired it up, I thought it was ok. I’d take Yakuza Like a Dragon, FF7 Remake/Rebirth, and Persona over it… heck I actually think Lost Odyssey is better. But to each their own.

RavenWolfx329d ago

Lost Odyssey is pretty underrated. Clair Obscur felt like a combo of Lost Odyssey, Legend of Dragoon, and some Shadow Hearts: Covenant, all amazing games that I love.

franwex328d ago

Yeah. Expedition 33 is a bit overrated. It’s cool to have a turn base RPG with a good story, I’m grateful. But it seems that the people that are more impressed don’t really play RPGs and see it as fresh air.

Armaggedon328d ago

Yeah, I think they are overrated as well, based on how highly people lift them up. People hoist clair obscur up as if it is a 15/10 game.

gurp329d ago (Edited 329d ago )

I love all of the persona games, but I cannot get into Metaphor for some reason, I am trying to play it
Clair Obscur is good, but I do not like the battle system, both Metaphor and Clair have great stories
I just finished Clair yesterday
Both Metaphor and Clair are very slightly overrated

GhostScholar329d ago

People seemed to love metaphor before it came to game pass. Odd.

Levii_92329d ago

I personaly really disliked ReFantazio, couldn’t get into it and i loved P5 back in the day. Clair Obscur is much, much better IMO. It cuts all the nonsense and bloat, focuses on fun, it’s much more intuitive, waaaay more focused and much better paced and it doesn’t have incoherent anime nonsense. And i found Refantazio take on the racism and classism to be very shallow. So no i don’t agree that they are two sides of the same coin.. i mean why? Just because they’re both turn based games? Get out of here with that.

pwnmaster3000328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

For me it was like demon souls to blood Bourne.
I know not the same game but it’s the best example for me.

Just like bloodborne, expedition 33 was faster and more fluid.
And metaphor, just like demon/dark souls, it’s much slower.

For me I like the faster pace combat.

clair obscure had a bigger impact on me personally, but both games are fantastic
