A hit video game began because its creator grew tired of his job at Ubisoft. Guillaume Broche wanted something fresh when he left the French publisher to make Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. He drew ideas from Final Fantasy games he loved as a child. Broche found his team through unusual channels. He sent Reddit messages seeking voice actors for a free demo.

Writer Jennifer Svedberg-Yen first answered his call for voice talent before becoming lead writer. Composer Lorien Testard came from SoundCloud with no previous game experience. Broche credits much of his hiring success to the pandemic, when people craved creative work. His careful selection of candidates who matched his vision helped build the right team. Luck played a major role as well.

Players love the results - the game sold 2 million copies in just 12 days despite also being available on Xbox Game Pass. Critics praise it as an excellent role-playing adventure worth trying. The game runs on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Series S. Its unexpected success shows how boredom can sometimes lead to great things.
