So the streams I am watching of Clair Obscur are very close to the end, but I just wanted to note that yesterday the game made me cry twice, on a bank holiday morning, before 11am (I mean, it was my choice to watch it that early).
Large spoilers, imo, beware.
So that cutscene before the Sirène fight was a fucking knife in the gut. I didn't get what was happening at first because it showed Lune's parents and I was like, "Who are these people?" and then went "Ohhhhhh shiiiiit," the moment it showed Gustave and Maelle together. And then I started crying.
(I will say, and I didn't mention it before, but I got really teary when Esquie hugged Maelle after Gustave died. Maybe I need a hug, IDK).
And then the second time I cried was when Verso was talking to Alicia, and he took her mask from her, because lovely sibling relationships fuck me up big time (I never had that, so I am jealous of everyone who does, whether they are real or fictional. It hurts me more when it's an older brother/younger sister relationship for reasons I am sure you can work out, hence my extremely visceral reaction to one of the loveliest moments in the game).
I know it's not so much commentary on the game, but I did want to note that it did in fact tear my heart from my chest and stomp all over it, and not even in a good way.
