Avowed is set to release Fall 2024 - new gameplay shown

That massive graphic upgrade :fire::fire::fire: Xbox game studios sticking to UE5 is paying off.

As I said, all they need to do is improve hit reactions and everything will be perfect but Im not worried because there’s still a lot of time for the game to launch.

Every time I see the game I can’t wait to play it, everybody with a functioning brain knows Obsidian is a lock on quality.

No classes and you can swim.

There is also a female archmage who created her own frozen labyrinth. Did they just randomly teased Kalakoth ? Lmao

After watching that extended gamplay this mite be my most anticipated game of the year. Can’t wait

Avowed looks very good, and I trust Obsidian with writing. I think only complaint is enemy animation when getting hit, but as long as combat is fun. Then that won’t matter to me much

I like this architecture

Go play PoE 1+2. If you don’t like the combat play on the lowest difficulty and enjoy the story. It’s worth it.

Doing this rn lol. Hate RTwP but everything else is so good

This game has so much lore it’s actually amazing.

Btw Pillars 2 has turn based combat as well.

Weird comment incommong, but Carrie Pattell is so articulated. Everything she says fills me with confidence in the product, turning potential weaknesses (mid sized dev) into positives etc

Its really interesting to hear her insights.

Not gonna lie, I really feel the Pillars of Eternity vibe on this game, which is good. People who said this game was generic or empty seriously haven’t played POE.

I’m not crazy in love with Obsidian, but this looks great to me. Visually, bright and colorful. The combat looks a bit weird but I presume it’s intended to look how it does. It almost doesn’t look like the attacks are connecting but the enemies are reacting, just a small nit. But overall, I’m slightly more excited about this than even Indiana Jones.

Next, I hope they show off towns and cities. I remember one of the rumors a while back being about how they’re were aiming for a dense city and interactive environments over just doing big scale cities.

I’m skyed for it.

Swimming underwater in a game like this is awesome.

I can’t get over how good this game looks. When fighting with the AI it looks like something out of a CGI intro trailer and not in-game combat.

Can not wait

Resetera: “Game dev costs are spiralling and unsustainable, all these layoffs across the industry are terrible.”

Also literal mods on Resetera: “Avowed looks like a remaster of a game from a generation ago.”

I don’t see any fantasy rpg on the market looking better than Avowed, not even BG3 in actual gameplay, not cgi cinematics.

They intend to sound super critical but a remaster of a game from a generation ago if you’re being real still means it looks good lmao, last gen games still look good.
