That's a very good sign.
Maybe they've kept the IP, and even if they haven't it still bodes well for the future ventures.

[Reddit] GreedFall PS4 Pro First Impressions
- Thread starter dex3108
- Start date
Just preordered it on GMG, but they say it isn't out until Tuesday despite Steam saying tomorrow. No code yet. But, oh well, got a discount at least.
I really hope so, I've enjoyed all their games despite the jank. I just don't know what to make of their new owner, Big Ben, so I try to avoid being too optimistic.
There's really nothing to really get a feel for the future. Big Ben's history isn't to invest in studios of this size or projects of this size, but we've seen a LOT of smaller publishers start ramping up with bigger acquisitions lately to become bigger and better. I remember when Deep Silver started off publishing games like "Horse Life" and "Neuro-Hunters" and other smaller efforts. Now they're publishers of franchises like Saints Row, Metro, and Shenmue (of all things).
So we'll see.
There's nothing questionable about it, witcher is glorious euro jank
If I pass my exam on the first of October I'll be rewarding myself with this game.
A few of my friends ended up preordering this, there's definitely hype building for this game.
You mean *when* you pass.

Well, bought on GMG for £37 based on these impressions from people playing, hope the game is actually good or I'll be pissed off at myself
I'm kinda bummed there are apparently all clothing is unisex. Also none of the companions shown interest me yet.
On the other hand, no RPG has more responsive, agile, and exciting action combat than Dragon's Dogma, or a character creation as deep, or a pokemon-like pawn system as strange. The game falls short in most other aspects.
What are you looking for?
What are you asking, really? This seems more like an oldschool bioware game, where companions have detailed personalities and stories, quests are heavily story driven, and there's a heavy lore/ world building. Plus romances, which seem to be a developed system.

I confirmed on reddit that companions are 100% customizable like the fallout games. I don't like those stupid looking tricorn/curvy cowboy hats so I am very happy
Hitting someone in the air with a big attack Throws them and it's amazing.
Also! I unlocked rifles and got a big ol' blunderbuss which is like firing a small cannon.

That's actually one of the things I didn't really like from Technomancer.
I like companions to have a strong visual identity, but they just use generic outfits. I ended up mostly leaving them all in the gear they start with, only giving them new weapons.
I suspect I'll be doing the same here.
For some reason Best Buy is only allowing me to order a copy by pick up only, no shipping option.
I'm rooting for Spiders. Every project they get closer to something special, and I think Greedfall might be the one they finally get right.
There's a huge void in fantasy RPGSs, and they can really take advantage of that.

The big fantasy RPG studios are coming for that GaaS money these days. Meanwhile, CDPR is going for cyberpunk route (not that I'm complaining about this one though).
I bought on GMG too. They are a key reseller, so they sometimes don't get enough inventory on release day, but they are pretty close. Hoping it will have the pre-order bonuses. It says they do, but I've been screwed by them with it.
They are not a key reseller, not anything like cdkeys/g2a/kinguin, etc. They get their keys directly from publishers and are specific to your region.
There was the incident in the past with the Witcher and such but as a whole they get their keys directly from the publishers afaik.
You do not control other party members (you only control the main character).
The max party size is 3 (the main character and 2 companions).
Ok. I thought they were. I think it was Battlefront 1 or 2 that I didn't get pre-order stuff, but otherwise they have always been good.
I shouldn't buy this, I still have Control, Gears 5, Mutant Year Zero DLC, and Division 2 to play.
I'll probably buy this.

Ugh!
What's the point in having a party then!?
I'll probably still buy it.
You can perform combos like in Dragon Age/Mass Effect games. For example, after your companion stagger an enemy, you can then knock them down.
Of course, they're also useful for distracting enemies so you can focus on your main target without getting swarmed.
They help in taking away/sharing the aggro so you aren't overwhelmed. Like the primary reason to have a party lmao m
I like switching playstyles without having to, you know, switch builds. It's why I enjoyed the party system in Dragon Age and other RPGs in general.
Can I least tell the squad what abilities to use?
Looking at Steam now, seems to hit the #1 spot on Top Sellers. Already Pre-loaded the game, cannot wait to play it.
same here. Shipping was available a few days ago. Now it's store pickup only and my store isn't even selectable lol. I just said fuck the discount and grabbed it off amazon. Game looks great.
That is weird. I preordered last week with shipping from BestBuy, though it hasn't shipped yet.
Preordered. Positive impressions everywhere I see.
Even the negatives are things that dont really bother me much. AA quality is fine, with the scope the game has.

I really haven't touched the main story, been distracted with the side quests. So far all of the side quests have been pretty extensive in that they require multiple steps, and they're interesting enough that I actually want to follow through on them!
Siora (the native woman) is awesome, she's probably my favorite so far.
