   Great new world that has various elements from other rpgs to make it differently beautiful. Sure this game is not perfect or game of the yearGreat new world that has various elements from other rpgs to make it differently beautiful. Sure this game is not perfect or game of the year material but it’s very fun and very interesting. The endless new atmosphere gives you hope for spiders future prospects especially a Sequel. Well done spiders. Looking forwards to the next greedfall journey !… Expand

Slight criticisms would be the villain’s development feels a little rushed and the lack of game plus. Does have a slightly nostalgic feel back to the days of good BioWare games and I hope it does really well so the genre can have a revival. Overall one of my favourite games of 2019.… Expand

   I love BioWare, mass effect and dragon age are the loves of my life. So I was really happy to read the first reviews of Greedfall by SpiderI love BioWare, mass effect and dragon age are the loves of my life. So I was really happy to read the first reviews of Greedfall by Spider Studio. I read it felts more like a Bioware game than the last two Bioware games- and they were right!
   
   I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED. The world-building, graphics, and plot were great. The combat was amazing, especially the ability to use 12 short cuts, and that you can have a gun AND magic!! The quests are not the standard fetch quests and there are many options for your character to make choices that affect the game and outcome. The choices you made and dialogue you pick also affect how the different factions and companions view you.
   
   The map system within cities left a little to be desired- it is really hard to get around and I got lost a lot. Some cut scenes had a tendency toward the uncanny valley and sometimes during quests it was hard to figure out what to do next.
   
   There are romance options in this game and they were decent. Not a ton of cut scenes between De Saret and your lover of choice, but still a good start. Not a lot of cut scenes with you and your companions either. Also, the companions are not bad, some are very interesting, but no one that inspires loyalty like a Bioware character. However, I feel that with some tweaking this studio could provide that.
   
   I finished the game in about 50 hours and still missed some items and will be replaying. This game feels like Dragon Wage Origins with better graphics. There's inventory management (you pick up a lot of junk) crafting, potion making and trap making. Be warned- you will get quests early on that if you havent leveled up right you will have to come back to later. This was annoying, but you can reset all your talents and attributes with a memory crystal if you need to. I am hopeful Spider will release some DLC's because this has easily made its rotation into the games I play. Highly recommend.… Expand

   Full of Potential
   Greedfall is an open worldish rpg where you play as your own created character as they set out to find a cure for a plague taking over the lands…
   And im gonna get right to the point.. the story here is sooo boring, it wont pull you through this 19 hour adventure at all… I couldn’t tell your character names or plots.. I just couldn’t bother to care…
   except for of course my character and my characters cousin…
   So naturally the game must rely on its gameplay… and thankfully this is where Greedfall shines.
   GreeFall very quickly reminded me of Dragon Age Origins with a slight hint of assassins creed and the witcher…
   As you progress the game youll gain a party with hteir own quests, you can equip them with better items and gear throughout your journey….
   structure wise the game is the same from start to finish.. run to a travel marker or campfire.. fast travel to the quest location.. run to the spot on the map while you fight enemies in between, listen to some boring dialog… rinse and repeat until you get to an exciting boss battle…
   If you’ve played 2 hours of GreedFall you’ve played all hours of greedfall… nothing changes.
   But there was just something about it that kept me hook, icouldnt put this game down…
   Im not quite sure what It is… but despite the gamplay not changing up, and the story being so boring.. I couldn’t help but want to see this journey through to its end…
   it had some sortve spell on me…
   Despite all of its problems..
   There are essentially 2 different section to the world.. city and forest…
   Every city, every forest look and feel nearly identical from the outside to the insides
   enemies are few and far between.. but the hook was there.. leveling up… dumping my skills into a tree, making my character stronger and stronger… which does bring me to the biggest issue I have with this game…
   Leveling here is painfully slow…
   Sadly you kind of have to stick to one thing and one thing only per playthrough…
   You cant have a character that can carry powerful weapons and have heavy armor for example.. you just cant…
   Due to how slow points are given for each of the 3 trees, you have to really specialize in one thing which I don’t mind too much… but that was until the game was basically forcing me to choose certain skilsl towards the end of the story.. youre forced to craft items only about 4 times in the story.. but still to craft those 4 items you have no choice but to dump two skill points into areas you may otherwise not care to build upon..
   If im a warrior I shouldn’t be forced to dump my skills into science if im not crafting potions the whole game…
   This breaks the otherwise feeling of freedom the game has…
   Youre free to treat character in this game any way youd like, there are no fail states to missions… if youre detected when youre told not to you just have to fight your way through and figure things out from there…
   But forcing you to spend your points in a game that rarely hands those points out just really bothered me.. if youre going to make item crafting necessary for story progression, you shouldn’t also tie it to a skill and force me to use my remapping crystals.
   All in all though GreedFall has so much potential…
   With more incentive to explore, less item binding to certain skills or at the very least more points to spend as you level and a better story I believe GreedFall 2 or whatever spyder decides to do next could be even better…
   I give GreedFall
   a 7/10… Expand

   Spiders, le studio français bien connu pour ses jeux (de rôle) bâclés a encore une fois sévi… sévèrement ! Déjà, le « monde » proposé est àSpiders, le studio français bien connu pour ses jeux (de rôle) bâclés a encore une fois sévi… sévèrement ! Déjà, le « monde » proposé est à côté de la plaque : une sorte de XVIIème siècle avec de la magie (?!)… bien peu crédible… mais avec si peu de magie qu’on a accès (éventuellement) qu’à un seul sort, la « stase » !
   
   A condition d’avoir choisi dès le départ le « bon » arbre de compétences, car le jeu ne vous autorise qu’à distribuer des points dans cet arbre et pas dans les deux autres ! t’appelles ça, un jeu de rôle ? Mais revenons au monde lui-même (aux jolis graphismes, ma foi) qui nous sert sans vergogne son agenda moralisateur anti-colonialiste, deux factions invasives (dont l’une très inquisitrice) et la troisième, celle des gentils indigènes de l’île : on a donc une sorte d’Avatarte qui ne pisse pas bien loin !
   
   Par ailleurs, le jeu qui n’est pourtant pas un monde ouvert, réussit l’exploit de rendre les voyages rapides inutilement compliqués et ses trois petites villes ne sont qu’un copié-collé des deux autres… sans compter celle du prologue. Le combat n’est pas folichon et demeure une copie de celui du… Witcher 2 (!) mais en nettement moins bien et pourtant, c’était pas déjà terrible dans ce Witcher second du nom… Cela reste certes moins merdique que dans les précédentes daubes de Spiders mais tout de même… qu’est-ce qu’on s’emmerde !
   
   Et c’est là le plus gros défaut du jeu, l’énorme défaut rédhibitoire : passé le prologue un brin intrigant, on s’emmerde à n’en plus finir par la suite : les enjeux sont ballots et/ou escamotés, les personnages sont creux et déjà vus, les dialogues sont littéralement à dormir debout (en voix anglaises uniquement !).
   
   Je rajouterai à tout ça que l’interface est largement perfectible et que la musique est ratée, plate et insipide. En bref et en résumé, ils ne savent toujours pas y faire, alors de grâce, je vous demande de vous arrêter ! vous êtes des incapables, vous n’y arriverez jamais… faites-vous une raison, les baltringues !… Expand
