Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 vs Space Engineers: which should you buy?

For Filipino buyers, the choice between Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Space Engineers depends on what you value most. If you crave a deep, story-driven RPG with stunning visuals and high community praise (4.5/5), and you’re willing to invest in a modern PC (SSD required, GTX 1060 minimum, RTX 3060 Ti recommended for 1080p60), then Clair Obscur is the pick—it offers around 26 hours of single-player content. However, if you prefer creative sandbox gameplay with friends (multiplayer and co-op), don’t mind dated graphics, and have an older or budget PC (i3/GTX 400 series), Space Engineers is a solid choice. It has a lower price point? Not stated, but its older hardware requirements make it more accessible for those without recent upgrades. Space Engineers’ 5-hour average playtime is much shorter, but the game is built for extended sandbox sessions. Clair Obscur is exclusive to modern platforms (PC, PS, Xbox) while Space Engineers is also on Xbox. Given your budget and hardware, weigh the immersive RPG experience against the multiplayer engineering sandbox.
