So how is everyone feeling about Godfall?

I think it might still be fun to play, if the combat and enemy design is really good.
But, it looked so aggressively generic on every front that it's all too easy to mock the game, sadly. It was also super weird to hear the narrator describe their idea for the game as if it was a new thing that Nioh hadn't already done (and likely much better).

No interest at all. It has still failed to answer any of these three questions for me
1. Why should I play it over Monster Hunter?
2. Why should I play it over Dark Souls?
3. Why should I play it over Dynasty Warriors?

Not my kind of game so it could look incredible and I wouldn't bother with it. That said - hopefully, it's good but it has that launch game feel to it. Might be wrong and it's a polished banger but we shall see. Some people will really enjoy it though and that is fine with me.
The whole thing just looked to painfully generic, and they seemed to put all the focus on little pieces of combat that games have had pinned down for several console generations at this point. The graphics looked pretty, but the style just kept making me think of those equally generic mobile game trailers. It baffles me that Godfall is getting so much pushing from Sony, I just do not get it.
The deep dive convinced me I have no interest. Reminds me of 'soul fighter' on the Dreamcast. Generic slasher and loot doesn't interest me. I get that loot stuff is popular though so I'm sure it'll find its fans.
Found the length of coverage in the SoP crazy though. Not quite 'Nintendo direct forensic detail on smash characters' long, but still well outweighed its welcome

It looks like nice... As a F2P game.
I'd never spend money on it though.
This would've been better as a Warframe type of game.

Looks like it could be okay, like a game you play when games are on a draught when it's on a sale or PS+, but not super interesting to me
"Soul Fighter" might as well be the name for any game trying to ape the Dark Souls style combat while retaining none of the nuance lol.
It looks appealing visually but the combat looks awful. Prerelease showings are supposed to make the game look as good as possible and the characters are just flailing around at nothing. That's as good as this game will look.
Seems "fun" in the way that games in 2008 were fun.
I don't even know what I'm trying to say but it looks dated as fuck and all those buzzwords in today's walkthrough just made me roll my eyes.
I also can't believe they're showing off such horrible gameplay. The enemies, hit detection, the action, the AI, the polite enemies that wait around to attack.... all of it just looks so boring. If it is indeed more exciting, the footage they opted to show definitely does it zero favors. Feels like Gearbox's HI moment.

With New Genesis coming this game has no purpose at all for me anymore. I used to look at it hoping it could fill that PSO style void but now PSO itself is fixing that. After the showing I feel like this even more so because the games combat is just too bland looking. Combo variety is weak and the AI and back and forth between enemies doesnt feel engaging enough. Combat looks very slippery and repetitive while lacking depth.
It reminds me of Too Human....but not as good. Granted I have not played it. but it gives me Too Human vibes but not as interesting. I really liked Too Human and when I first read/seen this game it seemed like it would be in the same vein, but this new presentation actually lowered my desire to get the game. The gameplay looks a bit stiff and the your character looks bad.
i'll be kind and say i have no idea why sony are giving it the push it has got (first PS5 game "revealed", end of show placing at that SOP)
Every time it is shown I remember that it exists, having forgotten about it since the last showing. Whatever it is about the game, it instantly relegates itself to the back of my mind. If someone had asked me to list PS5 games yesterday without checking the internet, no matter how much time I thought about it, I would never have listed Godfall.
Also, each showing that brings it back to mind, I think "oh right that free-to-play game". Today is the first time I've internalised the concept that they will ask money for this.

Looks like Lords of the Fallen with a design-by-committee Blizzard art style except even more painfully generic.
Zero appeal to me.

I am not into the genre, but here ennemies looked totally off, and so I am not sure about impact and feedback.
I enjoyed the showcase of movements and attacks, but they should have used a better responding to illustrate it.

I feel this way with every Gearbox game and this one isn't even developed by them. Impressive!
I was actually interested until that SoP earlier. Talking about combat mechanics that are almost two decades old like it's some new and interesting shit? Get the fuck outta here.
It could go either way for me. A lot of people just claimed Ghost was a boring asscreed clone set in Japan and once I played it turned out to be one of my favourites. Not going to judge games too hard until I play them especially ones so focused around combat mechanics.
