Avowed
Buy Or Pass?
I am having a hard time deciding if i should pre order this to play early or not, I keep seeing mixed opinions and some say only about 20hrs of game time.

Hello Elswen, i bought premium becouse im low on gaming time and wanted to experience Eora once again :) Will be playing at thursday in no time.
I also heard that game main quest will be short but there is a lot of side quests and i think it will be worthy game. So decide by yourself, today in present times even great roleplaying games like Kingdom Come 2 which im playing too are criticized and attacked becouse of the "woke" or "antiwoke" whatever this means. I focus on gaming mostly and i think game from Obsidian should be good enough to spend some of precious free time with it.

I'd wait and see bud, It looks like a stinker to me. Everybody that made obsidian great in the 2000's left a decade ago. The staff there now have produced nothing of note.

About 20 hours main story looks about right. It looks good but I'm waiting till the regular release.

I think the Avowed looks great I am just having a hard time deciding because of all the negativity I am seeing but thank you for the reply. :)

Never pre-order anything. You're buying a product - which you cannot yet consume, and won't know the final quality of. It's always prudent to wait for (not-games journalist) reviews.

You just have to wait 7-8 days more, to see how this game will turn out. But ultimately, it's your money and your time, you decide how to spend it.

I think I will probably hold off on buying until I see what the reviews on steam look like.

Nobody can really tell you, we are all biased.
Ask yourself. What do you want from the game? And what would be deal breakers?

Watch gameplay and do forth.

I recommend waiting until after release if you are on the fence, then you will have access to more information

Easy pass for me.

I was excited about this company making more games like New Vegas back when Outerworlds was coming out and then I bought and played that game day one........ It was one ofthe most unmemorable RPG experiences I have had in a long time, to the point that I did not care what the studio made anymore as it was proven that NV was a lighting in a bottle type of game that they will not be able to do again.

I don't like the character designs in this game (the fish guy creeps me out), I don't like what i heard about the limited build/gameplay options and i definitely don't stand behind some of the drivel the lead devs have said. The visuals, effects and combat look decent but decent is not worth 70 buckaroos to me.

I have recently gone back and played Oblivion and boy even with how badly that game aged visually, they don't make them like they use to.

The only game that may scratch my first person Elderscrolls-like itch is Tainted Grail which is still a ways from 1.0 and still need a lot of polishing from what I have seen..

The answer to this question is easy: buy or pass? game pass ;)

I think this kind of game fits perfectly to a suscription platform, instead of buying it for 70 bucks

Gamepass all the way for me.

Great thing about early access is you can still technically pre-order even when the early access has started.
WEll im poor so i been using myabandonware the last like 2yrs and i actually found some masterpieces i can reccomend if you are worried about money but also need something to play while you decide
