[Reddit] GreedFall PS4 Pro First Impressions
- Thread starter dex3108
- Start date
Hmm but if the game is built around it, and the game is too clunky/difficult without it... I dunno. :\ For example Fallout 3/NV is borderline unplayable without VATS, and I hated that. I still played them because the rest was solid, but I hate real-time-with-pause even more in 3rd person.
I guess I'm assuming PS4 and PC file sizes would be the same as well which I don't even know if that is true.
I didn't hear about this game until a month or two ago. Everything looks so good! I'll pick this up within a month or two of release for sure.
We'll see. I completed Dragon Age Inquisition on Nightmare without ever using the tactical pause. I agree that playing Fallout without V.A.T.S. sounds like a nightmare though. :)
Juuuuuuuuuuust to be clear, review codes haven't gone out yet (I personally wrote the email we'll be sending with them about two hours ago) and we didn't even send them to distributors yet either. It's amazing to hear people are enjoying the game, but anybody who is already playing hasn't got it from us and it isn't yet on the review build as far as I know. So basically: it should be (minorly) even better than it is now for reviewers, another patch after that before launch, and if you're an influencer or journalist who doesn't have a key yet, neither does anyone else officially - they'll be coming soon(tm).
Embargo will be launch day at 00:01 CEST. Streams and video impressions will be a few hours before.
Also re: file size, we're just good at compression ;D

Apparently you can just bind those to shortcuts to use in real time, how well it ends up working we'll see.
I'll post this here as well. I ordered on Best Buy with my gamers club for the traditional 20% off. I also got an email for a $10 gift card that i'll receive upon shipment of the game. Between this game, Gears 5, and the Switch Lite [Nino Kuni, Zelda: Links Awakening, etc] later on in September I'll be gaming busy for a while.
Yeah sorry the pausing from Bioware titles is one of my favorite things. I can manage time more effectively and not get absolutely swarmed by enemies. Particularly switch an action immediately when available if someone is close to dying.
Looks similar to Dragon Age: Inquisition. No hotbar as far as I can tell.
This could be a real sleeper hit, but that name is so bad it must actively hurt the game. I know it's kept me from paying attention.
Glad to hear good things, I've been back and forth about pre-ordering this. If I didn't have so many other games piquing my interest in the coming months I'd be all over this (good problem to have!).
You don't have to use it, you can bind the extra abilities to keys and keep everything real time, the combat is super versatile, you can bind and unbind abilities on the fly.
What specifically don't you like about it? The pause, or the menus?
It's just one level of menus, so it's not like there's any complexity to it. There's also some sort of hotkey system, though I don't know if it will be as extensive as KBM controls hopefully are. The gameplay walkthroughs are full of real-time combat with little use of pausing, so it seems to be really situational.
Also, Technomancer had the same thing (just a radial menu instead of pull-downs), and nobody even knows it existed because they all act like this functionality is new.
Do you know the Steam unlock times (is it going to be the standard 9AM PST, or are you going to run it on France time)?
Also, it'd be good to finally figure out some system reqs. ;)
Yes. There is no auto-attack.
So is it more like Dark Souls or Dragon Age - sounds like a blend of both...regardless color me interested!
The fact that Spiders seems to get better with each game is exciting. I hope this is a hit, it looks great. I'd like to see big budget Spiders sometime after they've really honed it in.
Man so happy you guys been super open about this game. Pre-ordered it anyway because it just looks like what I want.
I almost want to run out and pick up the game early. But I think i'm going to hold off till the pc release.
Focus uses two unlock times: midnight CET for higher-profile releases (e.g. A Plague Tale and Vampyr) and 6pm CET for everything else. Historically, Spiders games have fallen into the latter category.
So happy my lads at Spiders are on the come up. Technomancer is still one of my favs in a post competent BioWare world.
I should have been clearer. I was really asking if they were going to unlock it early, since the embargo is up at midnight CET, or if they were just going to release it at the standard time (6PM CET is 9AM PST).
Ah. Serves me right for not converting the time zone before replying, I suppose. ;)
00:01 CEST (Paris time) September 10 for the release.
I'm told specs are on the way at great speed.
Awesome you post here and cheers for the update. Greedfall is of my most anticipated games to review/binge play this year. I loved reviewing Technomancer and Bound by Flame back in the day.
Can't wait to see how the combat (melee) and the companions shape up for myself. Siora and Vasco look interesting.
No GOG release, but if Steam price is high for you, check through here
Wingamestore has a code that can be used for extra 5% off, pcgames5off
I really want to check this out but wow classic has devoured me and FF8 remaster drops next week. I think I'll play in a month or two. Will be patched and in a better place and I should be about ready for it. Sounds like Spiders has gotten their shit together!
