Sorry to say, but the trailer doesn’t look like that at all. Bullshots? Well, definitely when it comes to the lighting. That last shot, compare that with a similar part in the trailer, it doesn’t look like that. Hope the final game will.

The trailer definitely had lighting issues, but that quite fixable.

Playing PoE and watching the first cinematic trailer a lot of people would except a more realistic than cartoonish approach.
Don’t get me wrong, I really don’t care, but i get why people are disappointed.

That would go a long way, too bad the trailer didn’t have it.
It looks good. It was never gone to be top tier graphics wise. Obsidian games are never that. It’s their gameplay that is the cream of the crop in terms of RPG’s.
It looks fine to me. I like what i see. Playing it in game on your system will look better than any Youtube stream. It always does.
Gameplay over graphics. You can have state of the art graphics, but if the gameplay is ass. The game is ass. You can have bad graphics and amazing gameplay and it still a great game. Have ass gameplay but amazing graphics means the game is still ass.

Seeing this polish of Starfield puts me at ease a bit about Avowed, but I still don’t like the art style.

I hope the game will be released in second half of 2024 rather than first half of 2024. A lot of work can be done between that time to improve the visuals. Starfield and Halo Infinite also had huge graphical upgrades thanks to their delays.
Ultimately the gameplay and combat looked great, which is the priority number one for me.

My issue isn’t the graphics per say. My issue is the art direction. The art was more striking in the reveal.
In terms of graphics, I think they might get better before launch. I like when publishers show how the game actually looks at the time of the trailer, and then the actual release is an improvement.

The Outer Worlds in HDR on a big screen is nightmare fuel, so I have no idea why they chose this overly saturated look again.
Someone needs to tell them it looks… bad. Just tone it down a little.

You’re going to have to deal with it, since that’s how bright the world SHOULD look in Eora.

It looks very nice, I can’t wait to play it. Yeah, it looks like Outer Worlds, it’s pretty colorful, and I don’t mind. Obsidian is a great RPG creator, I trust them to offer us a great adventure.
kinda like the game tbh

Actually because it’s in The Living Lands the environment could be everything.
Let me take a moment to tell you about the land itself - rolling hills, greenery, and sun. The whole area feels like a succession of hills and valleys, each with its own ecosystem. While that declaration is a tad extreme, it can almost be said to be true. The combination of sun, geographical location, proximity to fresh water, valley depth, and the existence of hot springs have given the Living Lands a wide breadth of flora and fauna. Walk down a hillside into a valley and you will find lush, verdant hills. Climb the next rise and you might see nothing but rock and boiling mineral springs.

How is it a hot take. The original CG reveal perfectly fit the vibe and look of the Pillars games but just in first person. The Bullshots look closer but the actual footage in the trailer doesn’t look like it at all.
This looks like fantasy The Outer Worlds, not a first person Pillars, which is fine.
And really it’s not even the world that looks unpillars like to me, it’s everything else.
And the end of the day, they set themselves up for people to be let down with the art direction with it being completely different than the CG trailer.
It’s Obsidian so the gameplay will at least be fun, I just hope tonally, nothing like the Outer Worlds.
