If I were sort of interested in this but have never played a Spiders game before, would The Technomancer be a good place to start? I noticed yesterday that it's on sale on PSN for £5.

GreedFall: 13 Minutes of gameplay narrated by one of the developers
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Mars war logs is their best rated game from the past 2 gens from what ive read online so get thst if you can. Tehcnomancer is seen as a step down, despite the cool name :p
This article states that the budget for GreedFall is twice that of Technomancer's, but doesn't give any specific numbers. Another user here said the budget for Technomancer was 2.5 million, but I couldn't personally find a source for that after a brief Google search. Closest I could find was an IGN interview in which Focus Home Interactive's CEO says he can't give precise numbers for the budgets as they're confidential information.
Yeah, but Technomancer has a similar crafting system as Greedfall. I'd honestly say it's the better place to start because Greedfall is a continuation of what they were trying to do in that game, just with a bigger budget and extra year of development time. Mars is quite a bit longer in tooth.
They are not.
We're $50 on Steam, I believe that price is replicated everywhere, but local shops etc may vary. We know we aren't making games on the same level of polish/amount of content/etc as is expected for 60 bucks, so we usually price a tad lower, even with our larger titles like this (I doubt this will be universally true in the future, before someone quotes this post in three years to ask me why [REDACTED] is sixty).
As others have said, this game looks like a Bioware game of yore; which is fantastic. I hope they iron out the rough edges that were obvious in this video. I like the setting and the potential for the story. I'll be waiting on reviews and maybe a patch or two.
LOL
Could set my watch by this question. Yes, and here's the details from our official PR on the subject:
"HDR and 4K support will be available for GreedFall on PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X. HDR-only will also be available as an option on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One S."
Assuming you mean when you're wondering around in third person, yes. They're in a triangle formation most of the time, one to either side.
Both consoles targeting 30 fps? Is there a performance option?
It's scant on whimsy. I need copious amounts of whimsy for that comparison.
Yeah, Siora is gonna be in my team at all times.
I'll probably switch between Aphra and Kurt depending on the situation, but I'll definitely pass on that shitty old man.
Anyway, here's the other companions introductions in case people here missed them.
I think we only saw PC gameplay with controller. Dont think the game is running at 60 fps on consoles.
I hope PC performance is up to par with no major issues or bugs...
Technomancer is better in pretty much every single way. Just because a smaller game with a smaller number of reviews got a better score doesn't mean it's a better game. War Logs is rough.
It has its own charm, but I wouldn't recommend it to somebody who isn't already a fan of the studio or of the jank.
Vasco and Siora here.
Kurt apparently doesn't get along with either of those two, and he's also a mercenary, so I imagine his attitude will be "fight" and "kill" more than "talk" and "explore". Pass, thanks.
And yeah, Petrus can stay at camp.
It's not tactical or rules-based or really similar at all in gameplay. You could compare Spiders' games to Dragon Age outside combat, but once you get in a fight, it's a whole other thing (and the jank is real).
It's just closest to BioWare in things like dialogue and companions and other RPG elements.
