Greedfall - Was it a Success?
C4G asks if Greedfall was a commercial success:

Don't know if it was a huge success but the publisher is happy.

I have no idea about it's commercial performance, but the game is awsome.
It definetly didn't dethrone Candy Crush Soda, a phonejunk that made 2 billions of $ since it was released. We're living in times where garbage outsells art. |
It was a success to me. I really enjoyed the game so much. It was very different to me from most games I play. Unique setting and story. Overall my GOTY.
|
I enjoyed it quite a bit. I hope it sold well.

The guy did a 4 minute video, basically to show us one sentence published by another media outlet?
10 years ago, a game like Greedfall would have been a day 1 purchase for me. But there are just too many games now (it's a good problem to have) and I only have so much time. It's on my list, but I can't realistically say I'll ever get to it. |

Ah… screw it, no. I hope they earned a fucking huge pile of cold hard cash so they can work their asses off to make the next awesome RPG for me. I don't care for their happiness. |
I'm playing Greedfall right now and having a lot of fun with it. I picked up Outer Worlds, RDR2, and Greedfall all at the same time just in the past 30 days, and while I enjoyed Outer Worlds for a short little 30 hour adventure, Greedfall is the game that I am spending the most time with by far. It has a certain heart and soul to it that a lot of CRPGs don't seem to have anymore, and I'm loving it. RDR2 is fine for what it is, which is a highly polished Westworld simulator but Greedfall actually really does remind me of the old Bioware RPGs in their heyday.
I'm really glad I took a chance and picked it up on a Steam sale. It was a good pick for me. |

Also playing this now. I really hope its a financial success as I think their games get better and better with each release.
I'd say Greedfall is better than technomacer in every way. Story, combat, character progression all much improved. They could still work on presentation, especially lip sync, but those are minor quibbles imo. |
Either if it wasn't a commercial success, it showed an improvement in the devs skills. Each game was better executed: Mars War Logs, Technomancer, Bound by Flame and now Greedfall. Clearly, the devs are getting better at delivering a more polished product.

Game just released on gog!
|
I'm sure it was a success but it's not a game I'm interested in. I just don't like Spiders games very much.

Motion sickness says I can't play Greedfall sigh.

Anyway yeah I agree about Motion sicknesses I felt that way playing for a while. |
Weird, the only motion sickness I ever got from gaming was the first time playing Skyrim VR. It goes away after awhile though and doesn't come back, hence the term VR sealegs. I didn't know you could get motion sickness from a typical video game. Sorry to hear for you blobby and couch.

When you read the threads about the game here most watchers say positive and negative things about Greedfall. |

Every past review cited them for the same faults calling them second rate RPGs. So for once I'm glad they got a hit. Just hope they can get even better in the future. Fingers crossed they don't go the BioWare route someday though. Ps: I don't hate BioWare RPGs just referring to their faults and failures over the years. |
It certainly seems successful to me, compared to their previous games. They've never had this much attention before, and the overall receiption has been very good. Personally, I like their games, and I feel they're heading in the right direction, so this is good news to me.
As for motion sickness: I tend to get that in first person games that get the physics wrong. The moving-through-doors animation in Greedfall managed to cause a slight issue, but the general movement did not. It was only the door animation because of the camera swirl thing. |
Just a heads up GreedFall released on GOG with a 25% off coupon.

I had to install a mod for the camera, change the FOV and disable a bunch of visual features to play it otherwise it was just headache and feeling dizzi. |
Wow, crazy. Learn something new every day (games can cause motion sickness). :)
|
Its on sale now @ gog for a few dollars off - sure it will see a deeper discount sometime in the future - they always do.
|
While I didn't finish the game, I played Greedfall for a great many hours. I got much farther in it than any other Spider game. I too am hopeful for more growth from the arachnids. It mite tick me off if the Scorpions did the music for them.
|
I Liked greedfall so much and in order to support the developers I ordered greedfall a second time, now via GOG.com….. I hope Spiders continues to develop these kind of games…..
