GREEDFALL II coming out in 2024.

Nice: “Publisher Nacon and developer Spiders have announced GreedFall II: The Dying World for consoles and PC (Steam). Specific consoles were not announced.

I’ve played the first Greedfall, and I liked it: it’s an alchemical-swashbuckling RPG with an interesting take on the Age of Exploration.

Greedfall looks interesting.

Hadn’t seen Greedfall before. I’m intrigued with the TL4 gunpowder-magic-punk vibe to the whole thing. Kind of like Dishonored, except that I ended up being too terrified to play the game properly. I like stealth, but not too much stealth; and the morality system seemed to be just a bit too draconian.

Anyway: coming out next month.
