To understand what each game profile does, we need to understand what each setting means:
- order stack: Set the maximum number of orders you can stack per team member.
- Play strategy: Allows you to easily switch between pause and real-time, while maintaining strategic view and control.
- Autonomous Party: Allows you to enable or disable this mode, which makes uncontrolled team members autonomous in combat. They choose targets and skills to attack them without orders from the player.
- Zoom levels: Allows you to set the camera's maximum zoom distance. Zoom can be restricted, restricted in real time, and available during strategic pauses, or always available.
- Cursor controls: Defines a cursor control mode in strategic control, which can be available at any time to move the camera around the battlefield, or only available when the skill requires targeting a position on the ground.
- Auto attack: The controlled character automatically performs basic attacks after landing the first strike on the target, continuing until the target is defeated.
- target pause: Defines whether or not the game activates pause when a skill needs to verify a target or status.
The ability to change game profiles is unlocked after you launch “Donegarh Initiative” The main mission by talking to Mev and getting your two main tasks: a new evil and a dying forest.
Which game profile should you choose in GreedFall 2: The Dying World?
The Strategic game profile Recommended for most players, as it gives them more options and freedom of movement without restricting them in any way. Players can issue up to five commands to one character at a time, allowing them to chain multiple combat actions one after the other and seamlessly coordinate the entire party.
The Focused game profile It sacrifices zoom and player freedom in exchange for making the game feel more like a single-player experience. Restricted zoom levels feel like a hindrance in large-scale fights where proper positioning requires keeping track of multiple fighters, and the inability to issue more than one command at a time means you have to constantly switch between party members to gain full control of a fight. The Focused Game Profile is for low difficulty settings where removing player autonomy is not a sacrifice to streamline combat.
The Hybrid Game Profile This is a mix of the two, giving players a middle of the road approach. However, this disables Play Tactic, which is the ability to move in real-time during tactical pauses, making it feel almost as restrictive as the Focused profile, but without the benefit of making the game feel single-player. Players looking for a third option are better off creating their own custom profile by mixing and matching the settings that suit them.
