Much has been made of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's battle system, with how it blends JRPG combat with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the likes of parries, with many bringing up Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice as a point of comparison. Ho🧸wever, it looks like the game's d♈irector was an even bigger fan of a different action game from March 2019, Devil May Cry 5.

As we know already, a lot of Clair Obscur's story starts on Reddit, with the ga𝓡me's lead writer being hired as a voice actor through a post ❀on the forum initially. Naturally, fans of the game went searching for the Reddit post in question – which is also how we 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:found this weird video of the characters being used like VTuber models.

However, outside of the posts that offer an interesting look into the early stages of the game's development, it turns out the game's director, Guillaume Broche, is absolutely sick at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Devil May Cry.

is filled with videos of his Devil M💙ay Cry 5 gameplay, including a on the game's final battle between Dante and Vergil. Not only does Broche kill it, he does it on Dante Must Die difficulty, while maintaining a high style rank and taunting the boss mercilessly… oh, and he doesn't get hit once.

Interestingly, during the clips it becomes clear that Broche is a big fan of Dante's Royal Guard style, which gives him access to a parry, allowing you to nullify even the most vicious attacks. So while everyone was focused on Sekiro's parrying (which Broche previously revealed was an inspiration for the mechanic's inclusion in his ow💝n game), we may have had Devil M⛦ay Cꦯry 5 to thank this whole time, too.

Baldur's Gate 3 dev points out that many of this decade's best RPGs so far, from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 to Elden Ring, feature something in common: Shadowheart's actor
