UrbaNebula Posted January 1 Posted January 1 As we roll into 2024, full of festive chocolate and stodgy fruit pudding, I find myself wondering more and more about Avowed. We've heard barely a peep about the game and its development since the Xbox showcase back in June 2023. The game's release date is currently listed as the ever so vague "2024" and I would assume, so long as the project is still on track, we will be looking at a Q4 release. That puts us somewhere between nine and twelve months from getting our hands on it, likely with a more detailed look at the gameplay around the midpoint of the year. So, how are we feeling? I've noticed the forums here are fairly quiet and I can only assume that is down to the lack of any real, solid information about the game. After spending most of 2023 stating that I was "cautiously optimistic" about Starfield, I was VERY badly burned when September came around. Thankfully, Baldur's Gate 3 delivered the goods in my opinion. A reactive RPG and well presented world that only occasionally came apart at the seams, mainly in Act 3. However, I am still itching for a solid first person RPG with some real depth to it. Could that be Avowed? I'm certainly hoping so.
btsam Posted January 2 Posted January 2 (edited) I want a story with strong emotional resonance and memorable characters in Avowed, so I would ignore its other shortcomings, if its options are quite limited. Does anyone know who is the leader of Steel Garrote? A paladin who will do anything for "justice", this would make a good enemy or ally. Edited January 2 by btsam
kanisatha Posted January 2 Posted January 2 It's on my Steam wishlist. But I'll end up a 'no' if they don't give me a third-person option.
Ordo! Posted January 3 Posted January 3 I'm waiting for more informations, especially about the mechanics of the game, the gameplay trailer wasn't very exciting for me. It was only combat and heavily cutted, nothing impressive imo. I want to know more about companions, factions, ability trees, character building, reactivity, itemization etc.
UrbaNebula Posted January 8 Author Posted January 8 Yeah, I agree that there is a lot more to this game and a lot more aspects than what we were shown in the reveal trailer. Hopefully we will see a more in depth gameplay presentation this year, prior to release. I have more faith in Obsidian than I do a lot of other studios out there right now, but after putting The Outer Worlds down after the second play through (which I forced on myself in order to experience the DLC) I'm a little wary.
