It feels a bit complicated at times with all the politics involved, but that quickly became one of my favourite aspects of the story as I went on political missions to try and maintain the peace between various factions, including the natives of the island. It is on this island that I learned just how deep the game’s RPG systems and the story runs. The island might hold the key to a cure for The Malichor, a deadly and frightening disease that is ravaging the mainland. You ship off with your cousin in the hopes of bringing stability to the island and shape its geopolitical nature, but there’s also another immensely pressing matter. This island is dubbed as a new hope for De Sardet’s people and his cousin happens to become the governor of New Serene.

I was wrong and I realised this after an introduction on the mainland that lasted roughly four hours and then shipping off to the game’s true setting, the island of Teer Fradee. This type of fantasy world, at first, felt like it had a bit of an identity crisis and I wasn’t convinced that it would all work together. GreedFall plays off in a fictional 1700s and it is filled not only with swords, axes and a few guns but also with different types of magic, alchemy and science. You are tasked with creating your character and picking from basic RPG classes and a look, including your gender, but your role has already been predetermined as De Sardet, a nobleman functioning as a diplomat for the Merchant Congregation, one of the six diverse factions in the game. It was the voyage through over 40 hours of content that made me realise just how good GreedFall is, so let’s start from the beginning. If I had to describe the game in one sentence, it would be that GreedFall feels like a mixture of The Witcher 3 and Dragon Age: Inquisition, filled with political intrigue, robust and deep RPG systems and player choice that affects which of the handful of different endings you can unlock. GreekFall burrowed its roots into me after a bit of a slow start and now, I plan on starting my second playthrough. RELATED: Gears 5 Review – This Changes Everything GreedFall Launch Trailer GreedFall, however, is a massive, true RPG experience and after over 40 hours with the game, I can say with certainty that the developer and publisher Focus Home Interactive has struck gold with this awesome new IP. Now, over three later, CreedFall has been released and in my first few hours with the game, it seemed daunting, foreign and, to be frank, a bit boring. So far, this story looks to be pretty unique, but familiar to those who’ve seen movies like Pocahontas and the aforementioned Avatar.The last title from developer Spiders Interactive, The Technomancer, wasn’t received all that well back in June 2016 and although I did enjoy it a bit, there were some clear issues with the game. You’ll probably have plenty of ways to customize your character and plenty of figures to interact with. As mentioned earlier, it’s an RPG that should be filled with ample content. That’s the question you must find an answer to in Greedfall. What boundaries will you cross for the salvation of your people, even when it may cause the natives harm? Although you’re in search of a cure to save your people, you’re forced into conflicts with the natives. This sets the stage for Greedfall’s dilemma. It’s like the story of Avatar, where the natives are being threatened by invaders and forced into new ways of life. They seem peaceful and in unison with nature. Like most colonial games, you’ll come across natives. It almost looks like these characters are from the early 1700s.

They’re dressed as such with elegant attire. The game has a colonial theme, where settlers embark on ships to find natural resources in hopes of curing disease. Whether they’re friend or foe remains to be seen, but there probably will be situations when you have to fend them off as you complete your quest. The visuals of the island look whimsical and mysterious. Even when all hope seems lost, the narrator is optimistic about her son finding a cure on a magical island.

Apparently, there’s a plague that’s spread in the world - causing death and destruction. The trailer starts out with narration from a woman. It’s set to come out in September, and to build the hype, they recently released a story trailer. They just put out their upcoming RPG called Greedfall. That’s what the people at Spiders are doing. It also seems like a lot of companies try putting their games out before this convention as a way of getting push before other games do. Like every year, we’re treated to so many incredible gaming announcements.
