    Combat is really janky and doesn't flow very well.
    Graphics are nice but nothing groundbraking which is ok.
    Story didn't draw me in at all.

    I can see why they went the exclusivity route with epic games.

    Can rate the game as "1" as it's just starts and I hadn't caught a single crash during the full-campaign playthrough (11 hours). Though there are bugs and glitches, some are really annoying: when you kill the boss and follow-up quest just doesn't start, so you have to abandon a mission and repeat from the beginning.

Everything else is a disaster.

    1. Storyline - there's none. Go kill bad guys, go grind boring missions to get "quest items" to open bad guys locations, repeat x10. I think there are smth like ~70 maximum sentences overall been written to tell you the whole story, though it's enough - there's no story. At least your average school essay "How I spent my summer on lockdown" would be much more interesting.
    2. Graphics - It's acceptable, could be better, but it is what it is.
    3. Looting/Crafting - totally useless. And it's a disaster for an ARPG game, especially if you like minmaxing your gear and stats. There's no need in crafting valorplates, you can finish the campaign with a starting one on "hard" difficulty. Life stones, charms, banners - don't even bother. Take any from the floor - equip and repeat the mapping.
    4. Skills - oh god why? The most basic skill tree ever. You can max out anything - you still don't need anything besides dodge lvl 1 and nothern techniques lvl 1. Resistances, spirit, vitality, might? Don't even bother. Re-roll is for free, you can't ruin anything.
    5. Combat system - lol. Thrash mobs are thrash, they are just there for slowing down your mapping experience. "Location bosses" and "Act bosses" are mostly mannequins, it takes ~30 seconds to learn the attack pattern while dodging around. Not a Souls experience. Not even close.

    TL;DR take Destiny and Souls gameplay, make it as boring as you can, cut off everything, don't bother with storyline at all, sell it with full price AAA project.

    Go better buy smth else or just watch TV.    … Expand

    If you want to play God of War with a terrible story line, useless grinding, and frustrating level design than this is the game for you. This game is the cherry on top for the 2020 COVID crisis. Welcome to "Anthem". If I could sum this game up in as few words as possible it would be two of the following:

    Polished Turd
    Lipstick on a pig

    Other than that, here's the problems. Combat has major issues. It's clunky and frustrating, and so full of particle effects that when 4-5 enemies are around you can barely see what you're doing. Also, there's NO animation cancelling. So you like that greatsword or hammer? Get ready to be animation locked for over a second every time you hit a button. Parry and dodge both can't be activated during an attack.
    It's very souls-y. By the end game, even with a balance of might and vitality, getting 2-3 shot by virtually every boss is a given. And with combo moves and an overabundance of invulnerability/invisibility/flying phases mixed with ground effects, getting hit into ground fire (which I swear 90% of the bosses use) makes you burn, then a follow up kills you while you lay in the fire.

    The end game is literally "enhanced" versions of all the story bosses and mini-bosses, except they have more AoE and ground effects. Then at max level, there's even further "enhanced" versions of all the bosses. It's completely braindead in it's design and getting loot doesn't even feel good.

    Bottom line?
    $60 artwork, $20 gameplay, $5 fun factor, $1 story.

    If you're in it entirely for the graphics, go for it. Otherwise just play anything else.    … Expand

    AAA Cashgrab, focusing on nothing but "oh shiny, oh wow particle effects! 10/10" reviewers.

    Developers hopped on the $70 price-hike train, charging more money for less and less quality. No, your next-gen shine and particle effects leap is not worth an additional $10. Mods do the same thing for 10-year-old games free of charge.

    The game is poor quality, combat is copy-paste and boring. Maps are copy-paste with different filters (Oh Shiny, still!). Basically, it's a decorated hallway simulator.

    No campaign at all. AT ALL. Farm the same 5-minute missions (go here, kill that) 20 times to collect tokens to unlock doors (mobile game???). Open the big door a couple of times, the game is over. Oh, and you talk to two different NPC's about how bad the bad guy is every once in a while.

    It's bad guys. Really, it's pathetically bad. The fact that this was hoisted as a true next-gen AAA experience during all this time (and NOBODY at Sony realized how truly awful this was) is concerning, and a bad, bad sign for this new generation of games. Also, just goes to show that Sony doesn't actually have a single clue about what a videogame actually is.

    Avoid. Avoid. And if somebody gives it a 10/10, avoid them too. It's either an attempt to combat buyer's remorse or an employee.    … Expand

    Made an account just to review Godfall, so let's do this.

    First up lets shut some things down. I've played Warframe, Diablo 3, Both Divisions, bit of both Destinies just to name 6 looters. I like looters i like games that give me gear and let me make builds. Saying all that because people seem to think you can't dislike this game if you like looters. Well let me tell you i don't like    Made an account just to review Godfall, so let's do this.

I like looters i like games that give me gear and let me make builds. Saying all that because people seem to think you can't dislike this game if you like looters. Well let me tell you i don't like Godfall and i love looters. Is it a bad game, no but nor is it a good game.

    When i think of a melee based looter i expect more than 2 combos and 2 moves per weapon. I expect more than stagger systems, parry/blocks, evades & finishers. Why because that's the bare minimum a melee game should have. And for a game devs claim was inspired by God of War i don't get why combat is so stiff.

    You'll be mid attack as an enemy charges you from off screen. And unlike GoW which let you animation cancel into blocks or parries. In Godfall you just get hit & "knocked down, because everything knocks you down". If you want to parry, use a special move, heal or anything you have to wait for the animation to finish. Which only adds to the chunkiness. This games design often kills the flow of what's suppose to be an aggressive melee based combat game.

    Not to mention the bugs oh so many, many bugs. From getting stuck on the environment. Or enemies spawning inside of pillars. Or the hud disappearing, attack buttons not working & health pick ups not restoring health, just to name a few. For me everything about this game is paint by numbers boring game design.

    Anybody that says you have to get to endgame to judge Godfall, just no. Let me ask this. Do you finish movies, books or TV shows you don't like? Probably not. So if you don't like Godfall guess what that's fine. Because you don't need to be at endgame to make up your mind. But not only am i at endgame i'm leveling a second character. Why because you don't even get separate skill tress or loadouts. All 12 valorplates share the same skill tree and there are no loadouts.

    And speaking of endgame. Its exactly the same as the main game, no really. You fight the same bosses with new modifiers, over & over & over & over. Or you climb a tower and kill waves of enemies over & over & over. With a wider selection this would have been fine. But its literally the same bosses & mini bosses from the story mode.

    Oh yes in closing. Just because this is a looter doesn't mean we should settle for the quarter baked story that Godfall has on offer. As long as we expect a trash story they'll keep making trash stories. My suggestion: Wait for a major patch to fix the bugs. After that wait for a deep, deep, deep price cut. Because Godfall is not worth 70-60 or even 40 bucks.    … Expand

    Really, really shallow game. If you aren't into maxing out the amount of damage you can do, then there is pretty much nothing here for you. The graphics, while they look nice in trailers and screenshots, are actually quite garish in game. The art direction is one note, with overwhelming bloom everywhere you look, pretty much one environment type, and goofy looking enemies.

The art direction is one note, with overwhelming bloom everywhere you look, pretty much one environment type, and goofy looking enemies.

    There is really no story to speak of, just a pretext to have you fight stuff. No characters to care about, no depth at all in the writing.

    The control system feels clunky to me. In all the trailers they show you switching between weapons mid-attack, dancing around the map, etc. Well the weapon switching is a gimmick. There are a couple skills you can level up that allow you to do this, but it feels pointless, and any type of free flow or creativity in your fighting style is not encouraged. It's more like a fighting game, and not like Dark Souls: Learn the moves, or button mash. Either way you'll be fine.

    The camera is a chore to deal with, as even when you're locked on to an enemy the camera doesn't focus on them, so you have to control the camera with one stick while controlling the combat as well. Why not focus the camera on an enemy?

    I'm going to jump back in and play it a bit more, because I really like ARPGs, (though I mostly prefer top-down ones, like Path of Exile), but I'm guessing I'll walk away in about an hour like I did the first time I played it (no, I haven't finished the game). I got this game for free when I upgraded graphics card, and even still I'm pretty disappointed with it. Amd also gave me a World of Warcraft expansion. WTF? I don't even have the base game, and how is WoW supposed to show off a powerful new graphics card??!! Anyway that's beside the point.

    At this point Gearbox is zero for two in 2020. Hopefully they can get their act together. Not everything has to be a looter-shooter/looter-fighter. That's basically what this is. The ONLY thing to discover in this game is items and skills. Hire some writers, Gearbox. Video games are a mature platform now, so do try to catch up.

    Now they've released a 25 GIGABYTE patch (about the same size as the initial download) which fixes very few things according to the patch notes and seems to make it run way worse on my PC. Good job.    … Expand

    The game visuals are horrendous - the style can only be described as Donald Trump's wet dream. Everything is golden, everywhere, everything is shiny as hell and there are more particles effects than racists at a Trump rally.
    After all this I thought at least the battle would be good - wrong! It is godawfall! There is no balance, there is no input queuing, some foe animations are completely unblockable due to the fact that there are no queues as to when they will attack - they just do. Boss fights are just a frustrating mess due to the tight camera angle(can't see the whole battlefield and all enemies) and the moves they employ - You can only fight with melee weapons, yet they can fly, spam fire and set the ground on fire - you can only run during this whole time and you can maybe hit them twice when they tough the ground. Who decided this was okay? Are these guys high?
    The loot is pretty meh - It has stats that makes sense but for the most part you won't get anything good.
    The level design is atrocious. All levels look the same, there is no map and it is just a link with tight corridors that lead to arenas and that's it.

    The suits, ah, the suits. Don't bother unlocking them either - they only look different - they play exactly the same. No deviation whatsoever, except for the special attack and even that is the same for like half of them. Terrible!

    Graphics are somewhat annoying, too much particle effects with a lot of bloom, nothing is clear. You basically just pick up shiny stuff hoping that the next time you open your inventory there will be some good stuff. Didn't really like the art direction. Textures sometimes look really low res, even on the main character. btw. changing the emission on the player character texture when talking was amateur move.

    Let's not talk about the story, it's cheap as hell, not interesting at all - The game feels like a mobile game on steroids.

    Also there's some nasty bugs - You can die while browsing your character/equipment menu from dots effects. Targeting UI is sometimes glued to a random spot on the screen killing the immersion.

    I'm trying really hard to find something nice to say about this game, but it's been such a disappointment. If you really like just pointlessly slash your way through a horde of meaningless creatures without a real possibility of failing, then go ahead, you'll be more than satisfied.    … Expand

    While there is *much* room for improvement concerning the half-baked story and mechanics, it does have enough to scratch the looter/shooter itch.

If you want a similar experience where you can , play Wraframe instead. If you are after (what the dev calls it) the "looter-slasher" experience, go play Nioh/wait for Nioh 2.… Expand

    I am usually pretty content with most 'hack and slash' or 'loot-intensive' games but Godfall, while satisfying both categories, is a disgrace. The controls are horrendous and transform play in pure torture. The minimal amount of underlying story, voice acting and cinematics makes this title feel like a high school project.

The controls are horrendous and transform play in pure torture. The minimal amount of underlying story, voice acting and cinematics makes this title feel like a high school project. The gameplay is highly repetitive and the required game mechanics moves are far from being clear or easy to follow with either keyboard or controller. For a game that spent so much time in development, the amount of glitches is quite impressive though. Within 40 minute of gameplay I've got trapped, unable to move or jump in any direction, twice: once next to a tree and the second time next to a chest; highly frustrating. The entire game feels like a low effort Android-based indie from more than 10 years ago. The game lacks spark, it has no originality and it is very rough around the edges.
    I received my copy of the game as a complimentary gift for an RTX 5700 XT. Well, AMD should have shopped around a little more, this game is an abomination. Even the 'epic' graphic settings, 'AMD optimized' by the latest graphic card drivers are quite subpar for 2020.
    Never look a gift horse in the mouth. As it may be, this is a fair warning for anybody keen on dropping $60 on this title: you have been warned, spend your money on something better!    … Expand

    Godfall is an astonishing next-gen tech demo. Which is, honestly, the only positive trait of the game. Apart from that, it just delivers 10 hours of repetitive hack and slash gameplay and a tedious story worth a third grader. [Issue#308]

    A visually stunning game, Godfall suffers from repetitive combat and a lackluster story that is forgettable after the first hour. In an industry with so many Dark Souls-style games, this is not one to spend time on.

    Godfall only succeeds in creating interesting combat systems without giving any thought to the world and story around it.
