Holy shit I didn't notice that

What about barbarians, bards, druids, monks, paladins, rangers, sorcerers, and warlocks?

@@yourlocaltrashpanda7008 and artificers!

Yes! 100% this is how the game works at the highest difficulty level. Each path is good against some enemies and weak against others. Staves are the best at highest difficulty because of the mobility and aoe damage, shields for tanking one shots. You have to constantly chance stance,dodge, and rely on allies who you pick as the wiz, cleric slots.

When it comes to prices one needs to pay , don ´t - simply don ´t do it . If a friend of yours has it or other ways are doable , well , this would be acceptable choice . But then again , this game simply remains a choice out of many , if need be , cons and pros - The story of the game basically is a blue print for a dystopia that takes place somewhere in a unforeseeable future , corruption , rules are made by corporations , drugs makie people " paranoid and violent " etc. yada, yada or simply don ´t ! Boring and boring . Offers one or two good moments , and there is that - Fighting dynamics are somewhat not too precise , you can finally buttonbash your way through whatever crosses your way ( 1 button technique , and if you must ... use that trap which can be put on the floor ) It can be funny but it ´s not that entertaining to pull the weight of a storyline going nowhere . All you peops who ´d try to tell me this game knits things together in a different way : go and meta someone else , the story is BAD like MJ ´s nightmare or whatever . + frankly speaking , not that much but - they pulled it off with a small team consisting only of 20 persons . Surely a remarkable thing to do , technically speaking ... the game works , has not too many bugs and the voice acting for example ain ´t that bad in some cases or situations related . + at least it is a honest game , saying : take generously because I ain ´t got ... that much to offer . If one puts it that way , no need for trouble and I ´m out .

Oh yeah greed fall was awesome

I tried Greedfall and couldn’t get into it.

@@liquidsword601 Understandable. Their games aren't for everyone.

Their first title was Faery: Legends of Avalon, albeit digital only.

Yeah, what a great guy! I hope the algorithm will favor this channel.

Good point

@@loganross1861 I hated this game

Absolutely not, thats an incredible leap in judgement and logic.

I really liked greedfall never played this but it's 2 bucks now so why not try it and it seems its longer then I thought I just hope I can figure out a good build

Also because the studio assumes you played Mars: War Logs and understand what a technomancer is, but don't know the hidden twist.

@Michael Otten the game (mars: war logs) have a very slow start but it does grow on you. But if you hated the gameplay you should stay away from anything spider makes

@Michael Otten Then you should stay away from all spider games including their most recent (greedfall). Spider has the tendency to put guns as a skill instead of a primary weapon.

Michael Otten greedfall is pretty good. A pistol build can be some of the highest dps possible.

I feel this. It took me switching over to Rogue to notice that certain enemies have two automatic dodges that they usually string together with a kick/shove, or in the case of the riflemen, that devastating(on extreme) shotgun blast. They tend to do it once you've gotten a string of hits in.. Maybe to avoid stun locking. My biggest problems after realizing that were the bizarre hitboxes(especially with the leviathan) and my character randomly choosing not to heal after a dodge roll.

Yeah I really see a lot of Mars: War logs repetitions . A pity really. And this one was supposed to succeed MWL being a magnum opus following the aforementioned .

To me Spider as a studio can be summed up as "hey, here is a bunch of great ideas. Now lets fuck everything up". It shows in every single game they developed, and while it was somehwat acceptable in their earlier projects, you just cant pull an AAA off like that.

Spiders aren't a AAA studio, they are a AA one with only about 30 to maybe around 40 people or so depending on the game. And they seem to have done pretty well in reception from gamers with Greedfall overall despite yours and Sey Moore's personal perspective on what they have achieved. So they must be doing something right. As long as they continue to improve in different areas with each successive game, what else is supposed to really matter in that regard? Let's not pretend the Witcher has been a flawless series either, it mostly gets it's praise from a fanbase that disregards it's shortcomings, like it's wonky combat system that has slightly improved in each sequel, hmm, like another game just mentioned? And by your own admission, it took the Witcher 3 games to get to that point, and every other smaller studio is expected to replicate the same exact success? The Witcher made up for where it had less polish with writing and worldbuilding and a bigger budget later on (not even mentioning all the people that quit with each games completion due to how CDPR was run behind the scenes during those times, but no one wants to hear anything slightly negative about them being the Golden Child these days). Perhaps if Spiders were to be picked up by a good publisher and got the right budget to work with, perhaps they would be able to do more than what they have to work with as a AA studio with such a small team, but from what they have achieved, I'd say it's damn impressive with Greedfall.

@@k.s.2935 Never implied they are an AAA-studio, but i can see how it could be seen as such. Was not my intention, they are obviously neither huge or experienced enough to be one. I wanted to say that both greedfall and technomancer are trying to be an AAA experience, but fail to do so. Another thing id like to mention is that at least to me personally, Spiders' main problem is not budget at all. Their level design sucks big time in every single game (okay, i have not played greedfall, so i will not comment on that one, but it is so up to technomancer). It is boring and repetitive, which has absolutely nothing to do with budget as many indie games proven already.

@@Sey_Moore You say that as if AAA games have been in a good place for the most part lately lol, or that "AAA" signifies quality or a finished product when that clearly hasn't been the case largely. Most certainly don't feel that way. I also don't ever recall them saying they were trying to make AAA games, but working with what they have. Maybe that speaks for itself when what they are able to accomplish with little seems close to a AAA game, on par in Greedfalls case. When the majority consensus is that even with a small budget and team, they have brought something to the table that was more reminiscent of old Bioware than Bioware has been capable of with recent entries. I don't think you can really criticize fully if you haven't played Greedfall as it does show they have made successive improvements as they continue with each game. I'm not even sure why Spiders seem to garner an almost instant need to be pissed on by some when they have been around a 30 person team for a while, and maybe experience has been an issue, but fuck, people can only learn and get better right? For them to be stuck doing the same thing (as the OP was saying), it's strange when games like Dark Souls have been following the same formula with few real changes or innovations outside graphics, but dont get the same criticism. Level design was better in Greedfall, and in terms of budget, it can very much effect what extent of a world you can create in a semi open world game that goes for the level of visual quality Spiders goes for. Not something many others have that I can recall at the moment with the same constraints, but they have used feedback in those regards better. I recall they have some making of vids that may give better examples of them making the game that could shed better light on that, but I am aware that rendering and assets cost among other things.

I think you mentioned some great points and yeah, I personally was pretty disappointed from Dragon Age Inquisition while Technomancer was actually pretty refreshing. Like an MMO without a Questionmarker - although it has his edges, it has certainly a charme to it.

Once you get the roll skill, you were god in combat.

I had to check my Steam Games list myself because everything was so familiar and I HAD heard the term Technomancer before. So as of this moment I have both the 1st and last offerings from Spiders.

I had always assumed Mars: War Logs was like a tech demo styled version of Technomancer tbh

@@Scatteredpast it kinda is, its short and VERY janky, but still enjoyable if you can put all of its faults behind and apreciate the universe and setting

It ain't a Spiders game if you aren't doing a shitton of backtracking 🤣

jedi fallen order, no fast travel and 100% back tracking at all points in the game yall call it genius tho and give it a 10/10

You know it

@@ProbablyJacob You should review a game called Bleeding Edge when it comes out. It's beta is happening in March

@@enteredge2907 ill keep an eye on it

Oh, certainly. They're called technomancers.

Haven't played technomancer and Greedfall yet. But I really enjoyed Mars: War Logs and to a lesser extent Bound By Flame. I found many reviews too harsh. Yes, they are rough around the edges and there were points were I seriously thought WTF did the developers think, but Mars: War Logs felt really unique in setting and tone and I loved the red sand everywhere, it felt amazing. I enjoyed it muuuuuuuch more than many of the AAA Titles that everyone seems to love (Borderlands, Far Cry, Skyrim,...). It helped that I literally played it with no expectations so I was pleasantly surprised. I bought them on a steam sale and forgot about it until I gave it a go a few months back. Right after I am done with my Witcher 2 replay I install Technomancer!!!!

@@zuiop9993 I hated Bound by Flame. That last ice area with the boss gauntlet ruined the game for me. War Logs was good, though, and why I finally settled in and played through Technomancer. I have Greedfall, haven't got into it just yet. Really love this company for trying to get better with every release.

@@michaelb2westgaedu If I remember correctly you get something at the end that doubles your damage, I was sooo reliefed when this happened. The ending was waaaaaay too long (If I remember correctly every region would be more enjoyable if there was less fighting). I don't really remember the end Boss though. I only seem to remember that it felt a little out of place and gimmicky, I hate it when games throw all established ways of fighting out of the window just because they want to do something special for the ending. Bound by Flames combat system can be a little bit annoying at times. Especially when you're fighting multiple opponents and you have to doge the skeletons with scythes that do massive damage while trying to finish the blue archers ASAP. There is little room to mess up and it doesn't always feel fair when you die due to strange hit detection and rolling away didn't always work as intended. Don't know at what difficulty I was playing, but yeah Bound by Flame was real rough and not as unique as Mars: War Logs. But for me it ended up being decent. Not really good, but good enough considering it is a smaller budget title. (that said I paid only around 5-10 € for it, so maybe I would've been less forgiving if I had payed full price at release).

@@zuiop9993 I wish I had found that, would have helped me finish that one.

@@michaelb2westgaedu I don't think that was something you can find. You get some kind of potion (or whatever) in the story.

ill keep an eye on it, thanks

I recently finished Mars, and I can say, Technomancer is basically Mars 2.0. Less clunky (but still awkward) controls, companions matter and you can have subplots with them, better plot, overall more content to see. The only downside for me is running back and forth and respawning enemies. And, unlike Mars, you can save just right after last boss fight to know all 3 major endings, while keeping the mentions of your decisions and their outcome.

@@rob679 Yeah respawning Enemies is always an annoyance. I'll install it soon (as I keep saying to myself while staring at all these games I bought and never played). Thanks for your reply.

love both those games!
