IGN has shared a video, showing 13 minutes of gameplay footage from SPIDERS’ upcoming action RPG, Greedfall. This video showcases some of the game’s environments, as well as its combat and RPG mechanics.
In Greedfall, players will join their cousin, governor Constantin D’Orsay, along with various factions with their own directives and hidden agendas, journey into a new world seeping with magic. Players will be able to align themselves with one of the new colonies or join the natives.
Greedfall promises to focus on player freedom and choice. Your decisions will build friendships, break alliances, diffuse conflicts and shape the future of the island.
Creating your character and picking your starting skills, attributes, and talents is just the beginning when it comes to carving your own path on Teer Fradee. Players will be able to specialize or be a jack-of-all-trades. In addition, the deep crafting system allows you to customize equipment, tailoring their look and stats to suit your playstyle.
When resorting to combat, you can approach it in your own way. You can subdue foes with heavy weapons, use your rapier to parry and riposte with flair, or control the battlefield using traps and magic. The optional tactical pause menu allows you to choose your next moves strategically. Your party members will follow you into battle, but keep in mind that they are people with their own hopes, goals and motives. Say or do the wrong thing and their loyalty to you could waver, or even turn entirely.
Greedfall releases on September 10th.
Enjoy!

This is day 1 for me. Their games have never been the best but im fine with a solid AA rpg, its not like theres that many options out there nowadays.
Yeah spiders games are has always been halls assed and missing an element to be good. It’s as if that work till they run out of money. But this game seems like it might be complete. We’ll see.
at least its not another bioware/behtesda rpg
Sad to admit but you’re right. Bioware is pure garbage.
I’m not familiar with their past work but were rather impressed with that gameplay video. With Bethesda now seemingly beyond saving I’m looking for a vaguely Skyrim-like new game to play and this game sure looks promising in that respect.
Looks pretty damn cool… altho a bit dark
Some summary of locations, dev diary + gameplay is also here (some info is in subs):

Lipsync is off the t*ts with this one. AI is backtracked to the 80’s.
Looks decent, but the water physics are kinda odd.
It looks decent I guess.
The main problem I have with 3rd person RPGs nowadays is I’ve already played and fully completed all the Witcher games.
The third one sets the quality bar pretty high for me so it’s tough to get hyped over something like this. Also game engine is based on a pretty outdated, yet heavily modified PhyreEngine (GDC 2008 debut).
I’ll probably get it next year with a heavy discount.
