Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 vs Distrust: which should you buy?

For Filipino gamers deciding between Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Distrust, the choice hinges on depth, hardware, and platform expectations. Clair Obscur is a modern third‑person RPG with a 26‑hour campaign, requiring a fairly recent PC (Windows 11, i7‑12700K or Ryzen 7 5800X, 16 GB RAM, RTX 3060 Ti) to enjoy 1080p 60 FPS high settings. It also launches on current-gen consoles (PS, Xbox) and is sold through major stores like Steam and Epic. Distrust, an indie‑style isometric adventure/RPG from 2017, runs on very modest specs (Windows 7+, i3 560, 4 GB RAM, GTX 9600 GT) and can be played on older PCs, consoles, and even mobile (iOS). Its playtime is only about 4 hours, and community rating is lower (3.0/5 vs 4.5/5). If you have a newer PC or console and want a longer, higher‑fidelity RPG experience, go with Clair Obscur. If you need a low‑spec, quick‑play title that runs on older hardware or mobile, Distrust is the practical pick. Prices are not provided, so base the decision on hardware capability and desired game length.
