Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 vs Total War: WARHAMMER II: which should you buy?

For Filipino buyers on a budget or with older PCs, Total War: WARHAMMER II is the clear choice. Released in 2017, it is far more affordable and runs on much lower hardware (minimum GTX 460). Its strategy depth, massive replayability, and multiplayer also offer hundreds of hours for its low price. However, if you have a modern gaming PC (GTX 1060 or better, SSD) and love story-driven RPGs with stunning visuals, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a must-play. It has a higher community rating (4.5 vs 4.3), longer average playtime (26h vs 14h), and is available on all major platforms including PlayStation and Xbox. But its higher system requirements and full price tag make it a premium purchase. In short: choose Total War for value and low-end PCs; choose Clair Obscur for a next-gen RPG experience.
