    Sure it's a little clunky and sometimes a bit janky. The voice acting has its moments and the animations are stiff on occasion, but it's new IP, the combat system is great and it's refreshing in a sea of sequals this year. Would definitely recommend.

    GreedFall
    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    GreedFall
    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

    The game is a great 1st step into a new world. It delivers solid side and main mission stories that, while can be your typical “talk to this person” or “gather this item”, unfold into great stories and add good flavor to a well put together stew of a game.

    Cons:
    -The story feels impersonal. You never feel like anything happens to the main character. Maybe the story is weak.
    -little glitchy. But nothing serious
    -teleporting forces you in a camping zome each time. So you have 2 loading screens
    -A little too orsnge/brown color palette in the world...
    -Cities are carbon copiea of each other. Unoriginal
    -Looting is hard, your charscter is too jumpy. Wish they had autoloot
    -No autosave or quicksave. Have to scroll menu each time
    -Missed opportunity to have meaningful decision based story telling

    CONCLUSION:
    This feels like a classic real RPG that doesnt try to be something else. It greatly strips the fat and bloat which is present in other largerscale games. Quests had a story and good plots to them. Everything felt more meaningful. The zones felt like condesced and focused. A welcome change. The combat was simple and effective. It is similar to witcher 3 but BETTER caracter movement and impactful sense of hitting enemies and better looking.
    P.S Dont listen to other reviewers about this being DAOrigin , its not. There was very little decisions that affect the story ark. I was mislead by other reviewes into thinking it shared core commonalities.

    EDIT: I just did the story quest for a companion which consisted of sneaking into a building and getting a document. Highly disappointed. The game is just bare bones. I don't know what anyone is talking about it was a fetch quest in my eyes.    … Expand

    So far so good, I think Greedfall is a '7' game that fits snugly between 'meh' titles like the Risen series, and solid titles like Dragon Age 2 and (the original) Witcher. I bump it up to an '8' because it is refreshing to get a game that doesn't rely on microtransactions, some kind of online/social component, or pay-to-win mentality that has taken over gaming.

I bump it up to an '8' because it is refreshing to get a game that doesn't rely on microtransactions, some kind of online/social component, or pay-to-win mentality that has taken over gaming. This is a single player game for people like myself who love to get immersed in a fantasy world by themselves.

    I'm still in the beginning stages of the game and I've been really impressed with the visuals - great lighting, great attention to detail, a lot of 'oooh that looks good' moments usually reserved for AAA titles. There are enough systems going on to qualify this as a robust RPG, though none of them (crafting, inventory-management, leveling, questing, combat, dialogue-choices) quite rise to the levels of the more popular franchises. They're all a bit clunky in their own way, but they all work as intended, and they're all there. The storytelling itself is actually quite good, with a solid story woven through the middle of a number of side-quests, and exploration is fun.

    This is an 'area exploration' game rather than an open world game - more in line with the earlier dragon age games or fable than the open worlds of later dragon age or witcher games (or any of the elder scrolls games) we've gotten used to. But this allows for more purposeful and creative design choices, and the exploration still works well.

    Combat is finicky for me so far - I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be Souls-game challenging, yet because I keep forgetting what buttons do what, and the ease with which it is to die, it feels that challenging to me at the moment. Like all games, this will improve the more used to the controls I get. Just don't expect it to be a super smooth experience from the get-go, and don't be surprised if you get owned even in the combat training session. I was kind of hoping to go in guns blazing, but guns are just a side-thing, the real emphasis is on melee, even if you're devoted to being a gunslinger. I haven't tried magic yet.

    Overall, I'm pleased. I think it's overall value (given that people are saying the game lasts between 30 and 60 hours) is about ten dollars cheaper than where it's at, but we 'Western' RPG fans need our fix and Greedfall delivers that fix. It's not as challenging as a Souls game, it's not as robust as an Elder Scrolls or Witcher game, it's not as strategic as a Divinity or Pillars game - but it contains all of these elements, and does so in a fully-realized, beautifully-rendered world with a lot to offer.

    I can see Greedfall being Spiders equivalent to the original Witcher. Good enough to get our attention and get mostly good ratings, but a better introduction to a series that can only get better with time. If I were a betting man, I'd say that Spiders will have a Witcher 3 success somewhere down the road.

    Now, back to that boss that keeps owning me....

    EDIT (9/26): Now 21 hours in, I have good news and bad news. The good news is I feel like I'm only about halfway through, if that. The game has scope. The bad news is, this middle part is a real slodge. I am spending the vast majority of my time merely running back and forth between NPC's, in different areas of the map. Battle is actually fairly scarce. And to make matters worse, and why I'm dropping my initial score of '8' down to '7', is the fact that this 'looks' like an open world game, gorgeous vistas, amazing art all around, really - but the linear nature of the maps is frustrating. I can be heading straight toward the goal on my map, only to be confounded (for the millionth time) by a 'wall' of trees or mountains. We're in the open world era of RPGs now. This absolutely kills immersion and causes me to just quit the game more often than not, knowing that even getting to my destination simply means being told to go to another one. I should also point out that combat (the few times here and there that it occurs), is still fun, batman-style, but it's now overwhelmingly easy instead of overwhelmingly challenging as it was in the beginning.

    I'm still very happy about the lack of online necessity and micropurchases, so I still think this is an above-average game. But now I've got it at a '6' with the lack of online and microtransactions bumping it to a 7. I still want to see this through, but it has become repetitive and frustrating through these (what I'm assuming are) middle parts.    … Expand

    Great game for a small studio. Phenomenal story, deep side quests, diverse characters, and fun gameplay. I had some minor gripes with the facial animations and area glitches, but once you put that aside, the immersion is real. I can't wait to see what Spiders does next.

    Just finished the game and it's really really good!
    If you are a fan of fantasy role playing games, don't hesitate to try it!
    The pros : No fetch quest at all! They are all well scripted and often surprising. Beautiful landscapes (I was often in awe and felt invited to walk a path just out of curiosity) Believable characters for witch you feel attached to. Multiple combat system so    Just finished the game and it's really really good!

    Easy way to change your skill points (so your combat system)

    The cons : Not an open world. But I rather a fragmented world with lots of things to do, than a big open world full of repetitive combats and fetch quest, (yes, I look at you Assassin's Creed Odyssey).
    When you've chosen to help a companion, you can't abord the mission if you don't like the way it turns out (or at least I didn't find a way to do it other than loading a previous saved game)

    But first and foremost, I want to say thank you to Spiders Studio for bringing such a polished game, witch despite the "XVIIth century" setting has a very actual plot.    … Expand

    Fantastic world-building, lore, and dialogue is reminiscent of Dragon Age and Mass Effect. The combat keeps you actively involved in each fight, and there's menus and stats to pour over and a great crafting system. The technical issues of pop-in, occasional jerky movement, and poor facial animations cannot be overlooked but are easily forgiven due to how much fun the game is. Highly recommended.

The combat, and RPG systems are also thoroughly enjoyable, but unfortunately they start to get very old towards the end of the game. Combat doesn't really change too much from the first to the last hour, and the RPG mechanics that hands out hard earned and useful ability points which at first seem so vital, are far less impactful towards the end. Another thing of note is the world, it's a joy to explore each zone and discover the campsites and for an AA game the art direction is stunning, however towards the end you'll encounter missions that take you from one zone to another, this leads to most of your time being spent looking at loading screens as you fast travel to the campfire closest to your objective, running 20 meters then repeating. Other little niggles like repeated in door layouts and assets may break immersion for some, but they didn't bother me too much. If I'd reviewed the game at 20 hours I'd have had no qualms giving it an 8 maybe even a 9 as it captured that Bioware magic of old, however it failed to stick the landing. It's still well worth playing the conclusion of the story, but I felt like I was struggling towards that finish line.… Expand

    Having a game-ending bug in the main questline is unacceptable. I'm 25 hours in, and do not have a save prior to two much earlier quests that must have been completed in a particular order, that have now locked my game from progressing any further.

    At the very least there should be an acknowledgment with some sort of ETA on a fix...

    That said, I'm also enjoying it quite a bit. The quest lines are telling interesting stories and that your official job is diplomat gives you an opening to some interesting quest ideas. I chuckled a bit when, after setting up a meeting between two other factions, I was politely told to leave while they actually negotiated because I wasn't part of either faction. The voice acting is pretty good and I like that every group is at least a little shady. The skill tree is fun, if nonsensical (it is really that much harder to fire a rifle than a pistol? - I'm pretty sure historically, rifles came first). The Attribute and Talent advancement always have me debating, Talents, in particular, are a difficult decision because all are so useful.

    I would not recommend this for anyone expecting a post-Witcher 3 level of graphics, but if you're willing to look past its flaws, this is a very fun game.

It's just a good old fashioned fantasy RPG with no BS. Good gear, good levelling system, decent story and wide open world to explore. I know it may have some little flaws like re-usable character designs/environments etc, and the odd jittering frame, but nothing that wouldn't be fixed by a little more budget. Really hoping fans of the big RPG's catch on to this and boost these guys - a team of 20 - (and support independent gaming studios more and more) into the stratosphere.… Expand

For the people that complain about really hard bosses, there's an easy option. The character selection is very limited. The voice acting is very good. Overall, it is a great game for such a small company.

    Basically a bad hybrid of DA inquisition and witcher 2. Boring story, bad gameplay, one biome for a whole game. While playing I saw replicas of the same NPC standing right in front of each other, replicas of buildings, even some environmental details are the same: trees, rocks, ramps. Face animations give a strong andromeda vibe. Doesn't worth playing

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Reminds me a lot of Dragon Age: Inquisition. The characters and world-building are not quite as well written as Inquisition, but they are serviceable for delivering exploration and side quests with a lot of personality. The gameplay and enemy design are good but there is no variation after you hit the ten-hour point. I can't spoil the story but I'll say it's just ok. It never really hits it home or comes up with a meaningful message. Greedfall wants to come across as an unbias reflection of our worlds real-life history, but it doesn't work at all. Greedfall presents immoral acts like colonialism, slavery, and massacre as if they are just choices. When you make these immoral choices the game tiptoes around treating you like the villain like the writers are afraid of the player fragility. It's almost like Greedfall wants to call in to question the idea that muder and other such things are evil. I'm not saying the game shouldn't allow you to make the wrong choice, Fable and Infamous are good examples of how to do moral systems right. Greedfall wants to let the player have their cake and eat it too, there's nothing wrong indulging your evil side but Greedfall's refusal to offend the player definitely, in my opinion, causes another Spiders game to have a subpar narrative.… Expand

    1) Dialogue and writing is mature and fits the period and setting.
    2) No "Fetch Quests". I HATE fetch quests. "Find me my shield i lost it in the ruins over there". None of that in this game. All side missions actually have stories!! I LOVE this. I am not a person with a lot of free time, so being able to go into every mission knowing it will have a story lets me not waste my time.
    3) Nice graphics and character design. it is not a AAA studio, so don't expect too much, but it is still pleasant to look at.
    4)Characters in game are likable, especially the lead (your character).
    5) Music is unique.
    6) People are complaining about combat, but it is similar to witcher combat and i liked witcher combat.

    Combat, animations feel heavy and clucky to me whereas I prefer what Ubisoft did with Odyssey with the combat as Odyssey combat feels more fluid and more reactive when you press a button.

    The other problem I ran into was the quests don't tell you what level you need to be to complete it so I ended up facing enemies with skulls above their head during a quest which I might have avoided until I levelled up or improved my armor or weapons. This kind of information would have been helpful as it would give me the choice whether or not to attempt the said quest or not rather than being half way into a quest and then facing overpowered enemies.

    So overall not too bad a game but for me needs some improvements in combat, animations and a notificaton on what level are quests compared to your level or armor.    … Expand

Between choices that actually matter, character development that actually impacts your story, and a world that cares about what you're doing, Greedfall is the first game in years to actually mean it when it puts the R in RPG. You're not going to remember the game for the combat or the graphics, and the trait systems will seem a bit shallow at first, but as you create your character and really develop a persona, you'll realize that every point you put into Charisma, or Science, or Intuition, etc..., actually impacted the way you interacted with the world. This is not an RPG where every stat point is just another way to kill stuff faster. Your choices will impact whether you can reason with a guard or a foreign emissary without resorting to sordid means, or it can mean the difference between having to kill a warehouse full of folks simply trying to do their job or slipping them a sleeping potion that keeps everyone alive and keeps you dent-free.

    All-in-all, if you love the old RPGs, the Kotors of the world that cared about your choices and playstyle, then you owe it to yourself to play Greedfall. Spiders has gone back to the only thing which should ever have mattered for an RPG: Story, and that's something worth playing.

    Not a review, but plea to devs: please continue down this path. Keep perfecting this craft. You guys could be the Bioware of a new generation with this kind of commitment and there's a whole host of gamers eager to see that happen.    … Expand

    The game reminds me of first dragon age but with the fraction of the budget. Greedfall feels like a game that exists because the developer wanted to make it. It has the soul and the vibe of the older games, with it's jankiness and cut corners, which of course doesn't excuse the problems, but it makes them more acceptable in my eyes.
    And sure, it's a 2019 release but why does that even matter? Not every studio should be expected to push the technology or use the cutting edge stuff, and greedfall doesnt, it does well with what it has but nothing more, don't expect it to wow you with it's graphics but it has a fairly strong sense of style to it and mostly relies on it and the direction of its cutscenes and dialogs and visually dialogs are way more interesting than characters standing and staring at each other.

    Early game impressions:
    The bad: some of the writing makes sense only if a player character IS a player character, as in a blank page. Some of the reactions of De Sardet makes no sense giving they are living in this world and should have some knowledge and views on the matters and the factions they are dealing with, especially considering their position, title and the fact they have a set name and, sort of, personality.
    The dialogs feels a bit weird at times, with the classic bioware-style "i must be going" to finish almost every one of them
    The character creation is lacking and I don't understand why we can't give a first name to our character on creation. It's a bioware thing to have NPC address you by your surname or a title so I don't get why, it's a nitpick but hey, woulda been nice.

    The good:
    Characters discussing quest objectives on the go is a neat touch and makes your companions feel more "alive" while also making the objective known to the player in a more immersive way.
    Gear and gear customization for both stats and style, really nice touch.
    Cutscenes are lovely and nicely animated and well directed, and even the dialogs have some use of camera angles and movements to make them look more interesting.
    Having several ways of completing the quest is always welcomed in any rpg and greed fall has it.

    The alright:
    The combat looks fairly cool and is pretty fun, however it does suffer from the overal junkiness that is present in pretty much every aspect of the game. I do think it will become more of a specticle than a challenge as more options are open to the player. In short, feels good, but not a challenge so far.

    Conclusion:
    It's not gonna set the world on fire and isn't going to "wow" a player with it's combat or graphics, or even the story, it seems. But it's a fairly strong RPG on it's own merit, with a ton of heart and soul, which might not sound like much, or like something tangible even, is still something I welcome with an open arms in a year of life service games. A solid single player RPG with a more unique setting.

    It's a game that would benefit greatly from being the first in the series, the world looks interesting, the lore, the factions, the gameplay even, and I do hope there will be continuation with a bigger budget, as a new IP greedfall has a ton of potential.    … Expand

    Greedfall’s introduction is full to the brim of interesting characters and misdemeaning first impressions, for instance (MINOR SPOILER) Kurt was introduced as a hot headed knowitall, however his character develops into something much better than I thought possible. Furthermore I am 4 hours into the game, and I’ve not set sail for the island yet, the game is captivating beyond belief.

Furthermore I am 4 hours into the game, and I’ve not set sail for the island yet, the game is captivating beyond belief. It isn’t without its negatives however, for instance the combat can be tedious at times, and in one quest I found it near impossible to craft an item when I had invested a skill point elsewhere. And the camera feels very heavy, while I like it I understand how it can be a bit of an annoyance taking some time to get used to, however the game is fun beyond my expectation and I am loving it so far.… Expand

    Greedfall is not a triple A game but it is definitely a great game ! If the graphic quality, the animations and the controls are a bit out dated, Greedfall is a solid action RPG with a nice combat system, a good story and immersive quests in a deep world.

    Truly brought back some nostalgic memories of classic bioware. Glad to see a real winner from spiders with this. However the game still has some jankness, which was to be expected from a smaller studio but the passion and detail put into this world is unmistakable.

    Ultimately, GreedFall is another step forward for Spiders and is its strongest entry to date. Its previous releases may elicit some skepticism, but GreedFall, while not perfect, is a welcome addition to the gaming canon. It is a fine example of what smaller developers like Spiders can offer to complement the other experiences out there. Even with its faults, RPGamers should welcome GreedFall into their personal collections.

    GreedFall won’t win over those who can’t stand certain gameplay half-measures and lack of polish but those who are not opposed to playing budget games should enjoy it just fine. [12/2019, p.44]

    Even though it resembles other WRPGs that came before it, GreedFall is a solid gaming experience for those wanting a choice-heavy narrative.
