So Awesome it Needs a Prequel

[KorenoGamer]

I am having sooo much fun in the game. And the story... Just wow. I really hope they make a prequel that takes place before and up to the destruction of the world.

I would love to have a story based on Expedition 00.

I'd rather them focus on something new that they have other ideas for since they are a new studio and not get hung up on one IP for the next 10 years. We may very well be getting DLC for this though

IIRC they said Clair Obscur was the broader IP & Expedition 33 the game
Meaning they got some ideas already for more stuff to cook
I hope they go the anthology route and give us a brand new world / story every time
Let CO become the new FF, recurring theme / names / etc but always fresh
The composer can be nicknamed Nobuo Frenchmatsu

As someone else said, they could make a whole new RPG subgenre called Je'RPG lol

I can understand those points. It's just that I think it would be very interesting to see the story behind why the world is the way it is now. Maybe they could just do an short movie and not a game.

I think a sequel would be better, because the story of Expedition Zero to Expedition 33 has already been told, and before that the world was just fine.

Personallly I hope we will see what comes next for "Maelle". The game had a kinda open ending after all. Also, there is that war in the real world that could also be sequel material. I do wonder after all how a war between writers and painters looks. Can they use some of their powers in the real world as well?

And what's the state of the real world?

Those are questions I would like some answers for.

I hope they take the Final Fantasy approach.

ie. completely new world, characters, story etc. but sharing some basic elements likes enemy types, skills, equipment, and stuff like that. Should be fairly easy with the way they setup their world. Could even have some cameos from certain characters to make them feel a bit more connected, but still basically separate self-contained stories.

TBH.. i think the game already covered everything it needed from the past... there wouldn't be enough Mystery left for a prequel...

I'd much prefer a Sequel (Or a spinoff) taking place in the "Real World", either following Alicia has she creates new canvas... or following a world from another guild, like maybe the writers this time around.

They've built a very deep world full of lore, it has tons of places to evolve into... i wouldn't want them to remain stuck in Verso's canvas for another decade.

There is whole Painter/Writer plot.
They can make as many games as they want set in "Clair Obscure" world based on different canvases.

And with the Writers, there could be a game set in a story written by a Writer.
IMO, it's a good "plot" of creating games with completely different story, but with the same gameplay mechanics (using active parry/dodge/QTE in turn-based RPG).

And with the success of this game, it could very well be realized by the devs.

THIS! And also... are there other factions in that world... we know of the painters and writers, but are there also sculptors? Composers?

So many possibilities that could come up in a sequel.

a sequel about the writers would be good, but i still would want a dlc revolving around expedition 0.

[Amnesty]

i think the post was meant to be a troll post but someone posted about having to replay the game in every other expeditions experience and I have to say, that sounds like it would be cool but that would be an insane amount of work to flesh out characters/attacks/story for their expedition/ etc. This wont happen but I actually enjoy the idea even if it was meant to be a troll post lol

[Ratsplat]

Prequel, sequel, DLC and Expansions for the current version.

[Dovaah]

If anything, I'd like a game centered around "that" other conflict going on. I don't want to spoil but I really want to know what's going on around what triggered that fire thing.

But why ? I mean pre shattering everything was pretty much nice and dandy. What kinda game would that be ? A life sim ?
