WTF are you on about?Very true I doubt Sony has much say what gets released on their system from first party especially whats getting put on PS+
Does anyone know how good the campaign part of the story is? Or are there any specific loot locked behind story missions?
But Sony decided to put this on ps+. It's really a slap in the face and Sony could have told the dev to go pound sand. But nope, this is the marquee title for ps+ in December! OofLol Godfall is not a 1st party game or published by Sony.
They control what they put on PS+, but Sony has nothing to do with the decision to create this stripped out version of the game.
Platform bias is funnyWTF are you on about?
GodFall is not first party, and PS+ works the same way GamePass does, in that Sony/MS pay devs/pubs a lump sum to put the games up.
In this case, if the dev didn't want to give Sony the full game for the price Sony was willing to pay, and Sony wasn't willing to pay more, then you end up with a situation like this.
Frankly, your premise that Sony specifically asked this dev for half a game is patently absurd. Why would they do that? The onus is on you with your faux-logic to explain what benefit it would provide Sony, as opposed to the devs who benefit from forcing players to shell out for the full game while pocketing Sony's lump sum cash.
You're letting your platform bias get in the way of common sense.
Well said. 100% the devs trying to generate extra sales from this flop!Why is this by Sony?
Eh?.... The mental gymnastics of some of you in this thread.
The dev themselves are the ones who sat down and decided to start carving content out of their game in order to include it on PS+.
Do you guys really think Sony specifically offered them money to provide a carved up cadaver of a game for the Dec PS+ if the full game was on the table?
"Sony: Hey dev, we'd like your game on PS+ for the month of Dec. We're willing to pay you X amount.
Dev: Sure, Sony.
Sony: I know, maybe only give us half the game. That'll piss off @Bryank75 some more and increase his hate boner for Jim. We just like fucking with him.
Dev: Sure, Sony. That's a great idea."
Is this really how you thought this went?!? REALLY!?!?.... Wut!
Or don't you think, Sony offered them money for the full game, and the dev said, "well we don't wanna give you the full game but would rather expend even more dev resources carving this shit up so we can sell PS the rest as a MTX. We like nickel and diming fuckers."
Yes, they are obviously still living in la la land.I was considering giving this game a chance... But kinda of a crappy move giving out just a demo on ps+... Do they really think the games is such a huge success that they would be losing potential customers by making it all available?
Mortal Shell is pretty goodMLol. This is the ps+ game? Damn that makes for a very weak dec for ps+
Warned people? Seriously bro we get it youre an xboxers but is such thing reallly necesary?I warned people about this game. There was a lot of overhype with it being PlayStation exclusive that was unwarranted. We've been burned too many times by gearbox. I'm still waiting for the version of brothers in arms that matched the video they showed years ago.
Yep, same.Welp, there goes my excitement for this being on PS+. I guess it's basically just a demo.
So they're giving us a stripped down version with no story on PS+? Well they can go fuck themselves then, I won't be adding the game to my library.
Well Halo has a single player and muliplayer component, but it doesn't matter if you are lvl 1 or lvl 100. The loot is all the same and has no advantage over other loot.I ask you this. What the difference is between this and Halo Infinite?
Hopefully they made Gearbox pay them to put that demo up, imagine if Sony paid for that to be part of PS+Sony that poor they can't pay for the full game to be on ps+? What a waste and a friend wanted me to play it with him. NO THANKS!
Atleast mortal shell is pretty good from what I played on game pass.
Also Halo wasn't advertised as a free game with subscription only to have half of its features pulled back.
The difference is Halo multiplayer is free and this here is a PS+ title which people pay for. We expect PS+ games to be full games, not stripped down free to play garbage. The reviews for Godfall are already mediocre, if they're going to take most of the game away there's no need to even bother with it.A lot of weird salt here from people who can't see the forest through the trees.
This version is just the multiplayer component, the campaign is sold separately.
I ask you this. What is the difference between this and Halo Infinite?
So they went out of thier way to make a worse version of the game to offer to ps+ players, and Sony was like..... cool, will do.Godfall wasn't advertised like that either, the leak mentioned Godfall but it failed to specify this alternate version. I dont blame anyone for thinking it was the full game after the leak but its not Gearboxes fault that it was leaked in the first place so.....

What other game has been featured pulled on PS+ after it was already out?
If you think it's fine, all the power to you, ps+ can just become the new expensive demo disc.
I'm not going to argue, I have no skin in the game.I argue that this version will actually be better received by the community and perhaps a better representation of the developers vision than the original release due to not being weighed down by a worthless singleplayer mode that most players will probably drop well before getting to the fun part.
It's all about expectations. And the expectation is a full game. It can be a good game or bad game, but either way it's complete.
Out of the 100s of games released on GWG and PS+, how many of them are specially edited versions like Godfall?
Which part of the game did they cut out for the PS+ version?Most recently would be the unique version of FF7 Remake that was made incapable of receiving the next gen upgrade.
I was wondering at his statement. I dont follow FF, so I wasnt sure if he meant the game has big content changes, or just gimped upgrade function.Which part of the game did they cut out for the PS+ version?
Nobody expects free upgrades, they just want PS+ games to be actual full games.
This Godfall PS+ download is closer to a demo or trial with limited content. GWG/PS+ games are traditionally content complete releases of the base game. I dont follow them enough to know or remember if any have been special or deluxe editions, but the expectation is complete base versions.This is not as bad or stupid as you guys are making it out to be. The fire and darkness expansion actually reviewed pretty well. They are hoping to make some sales by offering some content to people who a) have the game but never played the endgame and b) never played the game at all. The sale on godfall right now lasts until 12/23. You'll acting like getting to play for free is a bad thing.
I'm not saying the game is good. Actually, I think it sucks. It's overly repetitive in the bad kind of way. The parry window is wayy too easy. I don't know how that hasn't been changed since launch. Game is very pretty though and I've heard the new expansion makes the game a lot more interesting so I'm curious to check out the endgame and maybe buy the expansion for $10

I ask you this. What is the difference between this and Halo Infinite?
That's a bad faith argument and you know it. FF7R was still the full game with nothing taken out. Publishers are in no way obligated to give out next gen versions for free, SE decided to do it for those who actually shelled out money for the game, that's their perogative and it doesn't oblige them to do the same for people that got the game via PS+.Most recently would be the unique version of FF7 Remake that was made incapable of receiving the next gen upgrade.
This is a looter, the leveling and grinding for gear is the main draw of the game.I ask you this. What is the difference between this and Halo Infinite?
Fanboys will want your head for this post but this is the perfect summary of this current shitty Sony.They made the deal and it is becoming a trend that since Jim took over they have been going for these terrible multiplayer focused games, like this and Destruction Allstars, several others too and then forcing PS studios to focus more on multiplayer.
Every move PS has made since Jim came in has been one to increase margins and cut costs, the art and quality doesn't seem to be even in the top 3 priorities anymore.
Games going to PC was enough for me to see he didn't understand one thing about the console model or about the customers he is supposed to be serving.
PS is not far off just being a blue version of xbox these days. Except Xbox at least offer value.... PS now doesn't have proper exclusives, is more expensive than everywhere else and has the worst communication and PR with fans and the worst customer service in the industry.
You won’t get any better loot before the end game. That makes no sense.Does anyone know how good the campaign part of the story is? Or are there any specific loot locked behind story missions?
Sony is fine as long as you realize the games they focus on are one and done titles that won’t last months or years.They made the deal and it is becoming a trend that since Jim took over they have been going for these terrible multiplayer focused games, like this and Destruction Allstars, several others too and then forcing PS studios to focus more on multiplayer.

I don't care what system a game is on, gearbox hasn't put anything good out in a long time. if its garbage its garbage. The fact it bothers you, says more about yourself then others. Also no, Us "guys" don't spend a lot of time hating games? That's pure bollocks.Warned people? Seriously bro we get it youre an xboxers but is such thing reallly necesary?
You guys sure spend lot of time hating game man

I just wished Sony would have had better foresight to say no, this is not going to go down well with our subscribers. And I hope to god this doesn't set a precedence for the future.
You beat me to it. The game seems to be a huge flop.It gets worse than just being free for paying PS+ customers, it's also literally free for everyone next week on the Epic Games Store for PC (no subscription required)

Yeah its dissapointing with getting this trash as the PS5 game. Gotta wait to see if at least Mortal Shell can get the free PS5 upgrade or is also locked like Greedfall was.But Sony decided to put this on ps+. It's really a slap in the face and Sony could have told the dev to go pound sand. But nope, this is the marquee title for ps+ in December! Oof
