Godfall was way worse than I expected (Review)

I don't know how they managed to make a game that visually looks so "uniquely generic" or "generically unique"....

Sees thumbnail "I don't think he likes it."

I love how they went "Oh this game can't run on a PS4, so we won't bother putting in there" And then when no one bought the game, they went "Yeah, maybe it'll work on PS4." and still no one bought it.

Cortana: That guy's trying to become a god. Collect 5 rat-asses. You: Yeh.

I'd call this thing the "poor man's Warframe" but this game is 70$ and Warframe is free.

It's honestly cathartic watching SkillUp tear into a game that raised his blood pressure.

Those aren't micro-stutters, those are entire lockups. Holy crap that's a killer in an action game.

0:01 opening 3:28 visuals and performance 7:22 campaign 12:06 combat 24:51 progression, loot and endgame 28:52 other stuff

The developers shielded everyone in armour to avoid facial animations.

“Deep lore” and “gripping story” where have I heard that type of talk before... OH YEAH! RAID: SHADOW LEGENDS.

24:06 It's pretty damning when every boss in your game is on the level of Bed of Chaos

There should be a pavlovian aversion therapy for game devs so that every time they try to put motion blur into a game they get an electric shock, and the more blur the stronger the shock gets.

"Will go free to play / 10" might be the most scathing score I've ever heard anyone give a videogame

That threat indicator is actually hilarious, it's like a hidden Easter Egg.

Even before hearing this review, this game's combat looked extremely...generic button-mashing on damage sponges. (I remember a friend recommending me this because "it's inspired by Monster Hunter," and I went "oh stop joking lol") After hearing SkillUp's analysis, I'm horrified that a game trying to sell melee was designed like this. "At least its combat is good" is not a redeeming quality, unless it's like Dragon's Dogma good. It's kinda insulting that this line is used as a defense for such a technically flawed combat design.

Godfall looks like the generic video game that you’d have a kid play in the background of a movie to establish that he’s a gamer.

You know damn well the brown M&Ms taste more chocolatey.

"It's not the size of your terraflop, it's how you use it" Next gen has arrived, and it has a new tagline...

We are simultaneously living in both the best and worst times to be a gamer. The tech has come so far to deliver us stunning looking worlds to play in, yet there are very few devs that are anything more than greedy money hounds that care not one bit about after sales satisfaction.
