Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is, as far as JRPGs go, relatively short. Not too short, mind—if you want to throw yourself into its endgame challenges, you’ll be spending about 60 hours, and there’s always New Game+ if you want to do the whole thing over again. Given Sandfall Interactive’s team size (around 30, not counting…
