Xbox Game Studios |OT5| DOOM posting not allowed. Except for posting about DOOM

And let’s just say for now that it is there, this increases the chances of a 2022 release. Sponger was the one that said this too iirc. Or well, with the possibility of a 2022 release. But whatever, if it’s there and they show it…that is all I need!

Because apart from Halo Infinite and Starfield, what games are we potentially going to see that really makes you say “holy shit, now we’re seeing the power of XSX for real.”? A game fully built for the hardware. I’d love if that’s Avowed. Been waiting on that actually, a true visual showcase of XSX.

[quote]I think it comes down to how things got prioritized for E3. I agree that Avowed is in a good spot and things are coming along smoothly. Obsidian seems very competent and confident right now. But I think that Microsoft asked Obsidian to prep something else with the expectation that there will be time to talk about Avowed in the future. And there is still plenty of time

My thinking is that with Starfield here, they can afford to give Avowed time.

Im still trying to link as to why Avowed and Starfield would exclude each other besides being rpgs.

Grubb also says he thinks this may be the case so he is just guessing

I think just as they put Elder Scrolls on the back burner so the focus could be on The Elder Scrolls Online, the same will be true for Fallout and Fallout 76. I do hope we don’t have to wait to long, that incredible Fallout thread by @FarSightXR-20 hyped me up, and now I can’t wait to see what they have coming up next with the franchise.

Team 2024!

We cant have Obsidian show Avowed because of how it will be overshadowed by Starfield but a Fallout is fine.

Pretty much. Avowed is a game that needs to be given its own time.

Mechanically I think it will be a better game then SF, but due to hype, it will not get its chance to shine.

Several Arkane Austin devs liked the Xbox and bethesda showcase announcement on Twitter, but we already knew Omen was likely going to be there.

For Obsidian, they have a couple other smaller projects in development too. Maybe Sawyer’s project shows up here.

He’s trying to say that you can show both Avowed and Starfield without one overshadowing the other. Which is true.

Where does Avowed in a bad state even come from? I dont get the point you are trying to make in relation to what I posted.
