    I put off playing this game simply because I had never heard of the developer, Spiders. When I finally picked it up, I was blown away by how great this game was. I've heard it compared to Bioware games of old and I 100% agree. I find this game to be a masterpiece in every regard. My expectations were low, and thus this game exceeded them in every way.

    I've decided to purchase some prior Spiders RPGS to support the developer Spiders (Bound by Flame; Mars War Logs; and The Technomancer). I have not played these games yet and am well aware that their quality will likely be much less than Greedfall's, but I was so impressed with Greedfall that now I want to support Spiders at all costs.    … Expand

    The developers may not have had a AAA budget for this game, but it is still a solid title. The bugs/glitches are minimal and actually fewer than what I’ve experienced with AAA titles. The story won’t blow you away, but it’s still plenty engaging enough to give incentive to advance the main quest. Facial animations are stiff, and the voice acting is okay, and although the accents can beThe developers may not have had a AAA budget for this game, but it is still a solid title. The bugs/glitches are minimal and actually fewer than what I’ve experienced with AAA titles. The story won’t blow you away, but it’s still plenty engaging enough to give incentive to advance the main quest. Facial animations are stiff, and the voice acting is okay, and although the accents can be corny, they may have a charm to some players.
    The combat is similar to that of The Witcher 3, but you aren’t as limited to what works against most enemies. You can experiment with different builds and approaches, as the game gives you several opportunities to reallocate all of your attribute/skill points as you play through.
    Objectives can feel like fetch quests sometimes, but the tediousness of such tasks is alleviated by the world being broken into small regions, similar to Outer Worlds, so traversing doesn’t take long at all. In between loading said regions, you can make any preparations in a small camp as you wait. The load times, however, are instant on PS5, now, in case you don’t need to wait or make preparations. If you’re hesitant about playing this, the PS4 version is currently on PS Now. I went ahead and bought the Gold Edition to support the developers, as this game definitely has me looking forward to what they can accomplish with more resources.    … Expand

    Got this game on my PS+ subscription, it’s a fun game with in depth missions & side quests. It has some issues but nothing major considering the size of the dev team behind it. Quality game & worth checking out imo

    GreedFall for PlayStation 5 remains one of the best role-playing games of recent times, but with a much better overall presentation. As for the new expansion - it's something aimed to die-hard fans of the original campaign.

    Fans of the genre will still enjoy the broad narrative, exciting combat and deep RPG mechanics. Those returning just for the DLC might be disappointed, but newcomers will have a good time with Greedfall Gold Edition.
