Avowed

Once you get past the woke crap.. not a bad game.. you do have to stop and restart it a bit to fix frame rate, especially if you alt tab and come back. The only bad parts is the gay crap they force down your throat.

Fun to play, reminds me of a DND campaign

Not a Skyrim killer...but an excellent attempt!

意外的好玩 最大的不足是人物刻画的太丑 其他剧情和游戏性都非常棒

A sloppy game with unremarkable characters, clunky combat and boring story. yet another game i wish i hadn't bought.

I want to love this game, and I'm sure I would if it was so damn crash-happy

Pretty damn good game - I've enjoyed it a lot. It feels like a modern take on games like Skyrim with gorgeous graphics, deep lore and a very good movement system. The combat flows well, though for me, ranged weapons felt much better than melee, which is a little..."floaty" for a lack of a better word. NPCs and quests are top notch and all choices feel like they have an actual impact - even in the long run. At times though, the game is trying a little too hard to put the fact that "there's no black and white choices, only shades of grey!" in your face and it becomes a bit tiresome that most of your actions make you as many enemies as friends. It's realistic, but maybe not always what you want from a game. It's not a bug-free game either, though the glitches I've had were never game-breaking in any way...and I run it on Linux, so yeah, happy it runs as well as it does. Avowed is not quite in the top-tier list with games like Cyberpunk or Dark Souls 3, but it's damn close and worth a try imo.

I like to think that because my ADHD runs rampant, im never able to gain satisfaction from high end games. i bore too easily, i forget about games(even the ones i like), and i always pick apart pieces that i don't like. "DuHZ It PlAY LiKe sKYrIM?!" yes and no. if you're expecting skyrim, just go play skyrim... it's not rocket science. clearly thats the game you want. what it does similar to skyrim: -Open world RPG -first person action -choices matter(moreso in this game than skyrim tbh) some of the things i've noticed people failing the game because skyrim does it: -so you can't pick everything up. it's all static. that fork? can't pick it up. -no... it's not skyrim, so you can't pull arrows out of a tree(fr, this game got ♥♥♥♥ on for this) -NPCs don't really react when you take their things. i like to think its because im the Envoy... so try it.try to stop me, i have diplomatic immunity! - companions... even though skyrim had like 12 companions(not including mods) and only 2 of them were memorable to me Things i love about this game: it's not skyrim. if it was skyrim, it would be skyrim. Dialogue options are good and hold weight. The combat is the special sauce that skyrim forgot to add. slapping people feels so damn good. A DODGE MECHANIC!!! this is what skyrim should've had, in my opinion. Skyrim on it's own is mid, but high tier mid. it really only shines with mods. While i can put in a dodge mod... it's way better when it's implemented into the game, rather than me having to organize files like im a freaking developer. Skyrim cant be all THAT great when people have to modify it to fit their fancy... just sayin. did i mention the combat? bro... slapping people ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ SLAPS. the spell work , visuals, and sound effects are so well done, that i crave the next battle. shield bashing someone is so satisfying. THE WORLD!!! dear god, this is a beautiful world. lush forests that follow a specific fantasy trope: large shrooms, trees with visible ley lines shown, rolling hills with a sexy green, sprawling towers and camps... and the cities!!!! oh lord the cities feel like cities. not a two street town that winds into a stair case, no... streets everywhere! houses, alleyways, roof tops, sewers... this game has so much level design and verticality that you could spend hours in each town just exploring. The lore is on par with Elder scrolls. the PoE games laid the foundation and it's deep and mysterious at the same time.every major landmark has some deep backdrop behind it. the local level design of the wilderness... so good. i don't need a mount. there's so much to see and do, that even having to walk feels fun. even gun play!!! this game has shoot outs!! nuff said the companions are a little dull, but i feel like it's because of burn out with similar games. all of them are trying to paint everyone's picture, and it only resonates with a few people. i personally like the companions, but there have been times where im not in the mood to listen to their life's story. this isn't Baldur's Gate, after all... nothing they say changes an outcome in the grand scheme of things... at least not from what i've experienced so far. overall a solid 8/10 not sure what it is... but sometimes it feels like theres something thats missing. i can never quite put my finger on it... but every once in a while i feel something... lacking. WONDERFUL game, though.

Tried to push through and finish it but was just not having a good time, I don't care at all about the story, combat is pretty lame in my opinion, none of the characters really got me invested in them at all. Hope they return to making CRPGs

FINALLY ADDED DWARVES, now its worth picking up lol. Edit: Also extremely happy about them adding third person mode, I have a hard time getting into first person games so that actually made it way more enjoyable for me
