GreedFall 2 is a bold and ambitious project from developers Spiders that follows up on the incredibly popular GreedFall from 2019. Greedfall was a throwback to the golden age of Bioware games and fans with a love for AA titles from that generation of games found themselves with a nostalgic homage to the greats of the past like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. It was not a shiny AAA title with tons of budget and polish, however, what the game did possess was a heart and a vision that resonated with over a million fans, which was amazing for a smaller indie company like Spiders.
Fast-forward to 2024 and fans have been eagerly awaiting a follow-up to the game fans always claimed suffered primarily from a lack of budget. Now that the developers had more budget and several years to cook up GreedFall 2, what are the results and what should you expect? It was a mixed bag for me as someone without much exposure to the first game. However, there’s a certain passion and charm present here from the old PS2 era of games that draws me into this strange mess of a game (Early Access) and I’m sure it will captivate many others as well.
