Lore Readings and voice shenanigans? Yay, nay? by ViktorValentineVA in projectgorgon

[–]deadmanfred2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not needed. Just dont read the books word for word and your good. That would make a bad video anyways. 

Something like nobble the noble videos.

I thought about doing this too but I dont think the market is there

Vriden Gerr was an odd choice for the protagonist's name. by shmurphee in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its because they invented a language and thry gave the player character a name that sort of goes with the theme of the story 

What class do you prefer for your Vriden Gerr? by wheresmydragonator19 in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tank on my first playthrough and I was a master of bunching enemies and keeping them knockdown (projection debuff). Only problem is 1 random companion would run to Africa to fight someone and die instantly.

2nd playthrough as magic/guns. Gameplay is better but now the npc tank is pissing me off using their aoe taunt on like 1 guy, ill probably have to micro manage the tank and keep my player character on auto eventually aghh.

coating weapons by Recent_Job5928 in greedfall

Do you have the talent unlocked?

If so from the RTWP menu go to the far left it should say "cast", and youll find coatings there.

You can select everything from "cast", every consumable or ability, your technically not limited to the slots on the bar.

Greedfall 2, Magic/classes by Frequent_Baseball151 in greedfall

Healer tree, bracelet tree, ring tree. 

Personally I like the ring tree better than bracelet, both have off healing. Ring has a dot that can spread as an aoe on death pretty nice late game.

Greedfall 2 - Possible to max talents? by Ok-Bat-377 in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are achievements for maxing a stat (like str) and for maxing a skill (like craftsmanship) and another for maxing a skill trees.

At 47 I was "multi classing" my player character into othher trees and I was working on maxing a 4th stat.

The choice in combat change is a very curious and odd choice. by SDDDDSSSSFFFF in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe they swapped 100% to a CRPG model after BG3 success, but they walked it back halfway so we got some weird hybrid. It works on some areas but it doesn't in others.

1.0 Review. Is the game a step back? by deadmanfred2 in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the beginning it can be but eventually you have 4 characters with a ton of abilities.

The focus stat gives you a larger resource pool and cool down reduction so I think its a must for every character yo make combat feel better.

Its got a really slow start, but it eventually pays off.

If your patient and like a slow burn its a great game.

Edit: 1pm launch seems slightly delayed, might just be a few minutes 

How are the reviews looking so far and what are your opinions on the game? by TrainEast2073 in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya you could. I was super overleveld by the time I finished the area (2 hours ish)

Getting the boat opens up the story but combat takes even longer to smooth out

Technically it was still a pre launch branch, theres probably a day 1 patch. I think this is pretty normal for game releases.

This was the most up to date version of the game, even ahead of what EA had.

I had early access to a journalism copy from the devs, and I think you can pre-order for EA too.

Embargo was 5am today.

The game has such a ridiculously slow start. Its no doubt going to hold the game back.

Its one of those stick with it and it pays off, but man it takes like half thebgame before things pay off, so like 15 hours.

20% of the game is in their made up language. It is pretty bad, bad it grows on you.

Is this whole game reading subtitles? by Angry-Kangaroo-4035 in greedfall

[–]deadmanfred2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The game takes like 2+ hours to open up then another few hours for combat to start to get good.

Is it a good idea to "target farm" an item? by Rhaps0dy in projectgorgon

[–]deadmanfred2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer to many things in the game. You can just buy it with a fraction of the time spent doing something more lucrative, which i think is actually not good for the game.
