Fans of the genre will still enjoy the broad narrative, exciting combat and deep RPG mechanics. Those returning just for the DLC might be disappointed, but newcomers will have a good time with Greedfall Gold Edition.

Greedfall is a highly ambitious step for Spiders, and one that shows that they are hitting their stride. With excellent voice acting and gorgeous environments, Greedfall serves as a grand adventure in a genre that is sorely needing a fresh face. There are still some bugs to crush, but once those are gone, only a memorable RPG capable of filling the open world RPG void will remain.

GreedFall delivers an experience that is as satisfying as it is ambitious, although it does falter in some notable ways.

GreedFall is a charming RPG with a beautiful setting and an engaging plot. It's a bit rough on the edges, but it represents the pinnacle of Spiders' productions so far, even if there's still room for improvement.

GreedFall is an exciting role-playing adventure with dozens of hours, which offers a well developed non-linear main story and side-quests, interesting world, and nice graphics. The game may not have enough budget, come across minor graphics bugs, but the authors try to hide the problem behind a veil of interesting quests and a well-designed world. Creation of Spiders reminds us The Witcher 3, Gothic and Dragon Age: Origins at the same time and can become the most significant role-playing game of this year for fans of the genre.

GreedFall for PlayStation 5 remains one of the best role-playing games of recent times, but with a much better overall presentation. As for the new expansion - it's something aimed to die-hard fans of the original campaign.

Greedfall is enhanced by its believable game world, but has to accept significant drawbacks in terms of presentation.

Greedfall is blemished but imaginative and choice-filled gem that harkens back to some of our favorite western RPGs.

GreedFall slaps together a beautiful map, complex quests, good decision making, an in-depth setting and a really cool storyline with good character building. There are some technical issues and a surprisingly dull beginning – don't let them discourage you!

Greedfall, even with its flaws, is a game that’s very easy to sink time into without regret.

GreedFall is a welcome arrival in the fantasy RPG space, a space that has been bafflingly uncrowded of late. But it doesn't just impress because of a lack of alternatives. It successfully delivers nearly everything that one would want to see in a game of this genre, and does so in convincing fashion. Fans of western role playing games who have lamented the absence of many true contenders in the genre this generation, prepare yourselves: a new heir to the legacy of BioWare is here at last.

It would be misleading to ignore the many borrowed ideas and means to appease long-time fans of past WRPGs and current action RPGs alike.

GreedFall certainly left me wanting more; while its story may be a bit shallow in places, it’s still got a lot of depth, a fluid, intuitive combat system and enough morally-grey missions to bring me back to Teer Fradee some time soon. Forget waiting for the next Dragon Age, GreedFall is an impressive debut for what could well become a classic series.

GreedFall is the biggest example of the evolution of its developer, that created a great action RPG for a market lacking in good options at the moment. With an interesting storyline, deep RPG system and pleasing combat, Spiders' game showcases qualities that should please Dragon Age orphans, even though there is still a lot of refinement left for an even better experience.

GreedFall fails to achieve greatness, but it's the start of something great. With enough time and money, a sequel would be much better since all the downsides of the original are easy to address.

If you're looking for a good scenario, an intriguing story and nicely created world in a RPG, then Greedfall is your game. But if gameplay mechanics and action is more important for you, then maybe you should wait for a sale to give this a chance.
