[@thenecroinniceclothes5019]

For anyone coming into this wondering why this game has so much hate, allow me to explain it simply: grossly overpriced, overly buggy launch. $60 base, with $70+ editions, for a game with near-constant frame-drops and regular hard-crashes. It didn't have much content to offer at the time, either. Ouch. Since then, the game has fixed practically all but the most persistent bugs, added some more (albeit not quite enough) content, and dropped the price, but the damage was (is) already done. Price tags set expectations, and Godfall, as decent as it honestly is, failed spectacularly. Watch Skill-Up's review as an example. It was rough, and no punches were pulled. I 'expect' Gearbox to be mostly responsible. They are the publisher, so they would decide dead-lines and pricing, but I can't say for certain. I'd say it's worth around $30. 'Maybe' more if you have the money to spend. It not, look elsewhere. It has some honestly cool ideas I haven't seen in other brawlers/hack-n-slashers, such as the soul-shatter and polarity systems, but yeah...launch was truly fatal to its reputation, and they haven't added enough to turn it around.

Warframes? Wtf there called valorplates dibshit i know u didn't play the game

[@brianfulmer2232]

They released the low-end frames. They all had plenty of quest to lvl them to exhalted. You can grind this game for weeks and still not have the right gear. If you haven't completed the first 2 towers, you really don't have a good viewpoint of this game. Thus, most people who complain about it didnt complete the first tower or have only like 30 hours in it. Which proves they didn't release end game anything.

[@jackal8176]

I picked this game up just a few days ago and frankly I can't stop playing it as I love the combat, still haven't finished the story but I do find it really fun and the idea of the world and lore is really cool to me too. Though it does have a few issues like how much damage ranged enemies do becoming unavailable in group fights. There's a few other things but there more nit picking rather than an actual issue.

[@ShocksandDropsMedia]

I really enjoyed this game. Style and combat was fun and when it gets to high level some bosses and enemies on this can be intense figuring out there move patterns and hitting weakpoints.

[@escape808]

The end game exalted tower will make you cry, you will instantly die unless you are geared up. I love this game, great grind with the new content

[@Orbzul]

The problem with this gameplay style is that they have to balance a fast-paced and reactionary combat system with multiplayer and loot items with a wide variety of potential stats. This pretty much makes a lot of enemies either weak trash or damage sponges. It also doesn’t help that they decided to animation lock your attacks in a game where enemies gang up on you and most of them don’t flinch from attacks.

[@Commanderflynn]

It's really interesting to see how people perceive the game now and then I personally had a ton of fun with it. Granted, i'm biased since 1) Melee combat 2) spears! I kinda wish Gearbox did more with Godfall, it had alot of potential especially when you got into the meat of the skill-tree and build crafting (post fixing builds so it's not just "choose what Damage over time colour you like") and the updates did do a decent bit for the content. But it's just not enough and it's sad :( We need more melee games

[@Lunarfly_streams]

Yea I enjoyed the combat alot

[@elvickRULES]

I would’ve tried it if they patched it so it wasn’t always online even solo

[@aaronhammack4599]

I know this is 11 month old now but I wanted to add like others have said this is now a fun and enjoyable game that has a looter slasher gameplay loop where much like in Destiny you kill enemies they drop a color coded item be it a weapon or an accessory to help boost your stats and you repeat to get better gear. On top of that you have a kind of Warframe setup when it comes to the armors each one offering different styles of gameplay unique from each other. I haven't played in some time but that's ONLY because I've been doing other things or my internet which, is satellite based might make it impossible to play at times but none the less I beat the may story had fun the whole way and am working on the Dlc campaign now. So go give it a try if you like looting games, I hope you all like it.

Except games like Destiny and Warframe acually have content.... Making an endgame looter is pretty tricky, and many who have tried in recent years have absolutely failed. Like Anthem, Godfall, etc. They just can't seem to realize that the other games succeed where they fail because they have CONTENT to play. You can't have an ongoing endgame without a bunch of different fun activities and worthwhile loot. That's why games like Destiny succeed, and Godfall fails.

My biggest gripe with it was every single attack in the game could knock your character down if you didn't have your shield up (overhealth I think it was called? the blue bar.) After spending countless hours on my ass, it got pretty annoying and I had to stop. Didn't hate it though, but I'm extremely laid back and forgiving as long as I find the core gameplay fun in games, which I did. I certainly understand some gripes, I'm not blind, but once I reached endgame and had a pretty OP build going and one-shotting bosses, it was pretty dope for a little bit.
