Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 vs Sheltered: which should you buy?
For Filipino buyers, the choice between Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Sheltered depends on your hardware and gaming preferences. Clair Obscur is a visually stunning, story-rich RPG with a high community rating (4.5/5), but it demands a modern PC (GTX 1060, SSD, 55GB) or console, and costs a premium (price not provided but expected higher). Its 26-hour playtime offers deep immersion. Sheltered is an older 2D strategy/RPG hybrid with much lower requirements (Windows XP, 1GB RAM, 600MB), runs on mobile devices, and is likely cheaper (older title). However, its ratings are lower (3.2/5, Metacritic 66) and playtime is only 3 hours. If you have a capable gaming rig and want a top-tier RPG experience, choose Clair Obscur. If you have an older PC or prefer mobile gaming on a budget, Sheltered is the practical choice.
