    Greedfall can be unfairly judged right off the bat, but this is a game that fans of the RPG genre will definitely enjoy. Spiders have excelled in making a great game with Greedfall, from the well-written narrative to the robust combat and RPG mechanics. Newcomers will benefit the most with the Gold Edition, while those only looking to play the DLC may be left disappointed.

    The De Vespe Conspiracy still tells an enjoyable tale, but the surrounding new enemies, empty location, and anticlimactic ending make for something akin to getting a dinner mint as a dessert rather than the chocolate melting cake.

    Greedfall is a tough game to judge. It's neither bad nor great. It comes staggeringly close to greatness in a number of areas, but it just lacks the polish or ambition to go further. If you're looking for a nostalgic trip back to the mid-2000s style of WRPGs, then you'll find a lot to like in Greedfall. It's worth a shot if you're a fan of that style of games. In a year that gave us titles like Disco Elysium, it's difficult to be particularly impressed by something that is merely standard.

    Greedfall even with the inconsistent accents and technical difficulties is still an easy game to recommend for folks looking for a change of pace from the standard Dungeons and Dragons tropes. There is plenty of political intrigue and mysteries to unravel on Teer Fradee and no one faction that can be singled out as good or evil.

    It's a shame that a good game is held back by incredibly boring design decisions. I think Greedfall is on the verge of greatness but falls short in too many areas to really go down as a must-play. It's absolutely an enjoyable romp, just one plagued by the thought of what could have been.

    I think GreedFall may be the sleeper hit of the year. It’s an RPG that captures the best parts of BioWare’s works while adding in their own gameplay elements and a unique setting. The side stories are given just as much importance as the main quests. The world is large despite not being one large open world experience. Combat is the perfect blend of real time action and turn based decision making. After playing Bound by Flame earlier this year I had little expectation for GreedFall. I am happy I was wrong to doubt Spiders, because it is one of my favorite games of the year.

    The characters are not fleshed out but boring and worse annoying. That was it's best part. The rest is a slog of a story, padding gameplay, backtracking, poorly designed ui and fetch quests which worsen due to said backtracking.

    It’s honestly a decent rpg. Imagine the era of 1600s,1700s or even the 1800s but with spiritual monsters roaming around the island you eventually go to. There’s a plot twist that I to be honest did not expect at all and doing side quests and your companions quests you get through progressing the story, it slowly reveals who your character really is and what is the congregation hiding. It also helps discover each of your companions story. Having a good relationship with all of them and the alliances you make with the other branches is crucial. They can help you with a lot of stuff during the story compared to if you had a bad relationship with them.

    Its a RPG game based on a fictional island with London like cities in the 1700. There are three factions and each of them are very grounded and have a goal and drive to achieve what they want. The morality is thin in the world which makes you take tough choices and live with the consequences and the game doesn't punish you but rather encourages you to carve your own destiny. The combat is a combination of guns and swords. You often take a NPC with you on missions to help you out and some of the forest creatures and boss battles are very tough. The graphics and glitches are annoying and the world feels semi-open world as you have to run around everywhere but its an overall good game.

    Greedfall is a AA developed by spider's, a small studio. The game is very designed. The story in this game is gripping though not extremely amazing, it keeps you hooked for the entire run. The combat is solid , a bit repetitive but surely fun. The character are well designed, a lot you will still remember at the end of the game. The graphics was very well done. I enjoyed this game thoroughly, it's Highly likely you will as well.

    If you loved playing Dragon Age Origins, then this game might be the proper game who will scratch that achy feeling of yours. This is a game by Spiders, they are the ones who created Technomancer and Bound By Flame. So here are my pros and cons Pros/Cons: + Companion system. I just love the idea of forging bonds with your party members. + Dialogues and cut-scenes. To be honest I find it quite entertaining, I like the cut-scenes, specially when they are talking. +- Plot. I am not gonna say anything, you have to feel it. +- Game length. It is an okay length for an RPG game. For others, it might be too short because it took me 50 hours to finish literally everything in the game, this also includes my time grinding for money. - Repetitive assets, battle and enemies. It's just that it is a semi open world and I expected it to be diverse but no, each town almost looks the same, the enemies looks the same and then the battle will worn you out pretty much early in the game. - You can easily over power enemies which kills the fun even when set on hard mode. I am not sure if this is the same on extreme mode (will update the review if it does make a lot of difference). But overall this game will definitely keep you entertained and hooked up until the end.
