Is the game any good?

[Slut Dragon]

To the 700 people playing right now, is it good enough for $50?

play oblivion instead

Obsidian said they will release Road Map that will address issues with the game throughout 2025. 700 people plays Avowed like sheep. Everybody else is waiting for patches and improvements.

Yes, it is a good game, worth $50 with no doubt in my mind.
That said, you might want to try it out on Gamepass first, since it only costs about $12 and gives you access to a ton of games for the price, including Avowed and the new Oblivion remaster.

This afternoon I played Avowed and Oblivion Remastered on Gamepass. And I clearly like Avowed better. The combat is more dynamic and the conversations with your companions reminded me of BG3.

Until I played Oblivion Remastered I didn't understand why it wasn't called a remake. When I played it I understood it perfectly. It's the old Oblivion but made in Unreal Engine.

Basically the combat system can't even be compared. Avowed's is dynamic and agile. The combat in Oblivion Remastered is that of a game from almost 20 years ago. And it shows.

If you don't want to spend $70 then try inzoi which is $40 and has a slightly higher positive steam score than avowed.

Dude what.
Recommending an early access, AI art, life sim game instead of an RPG. Insane.

The game is good on heavy discount or play through gamepass.

I finished it through gamepass. I wouldnt pay more than 25$ .

Very good game!

The player counts can't be compared, either. Oblivion Remastered's is an order of magnitude higher and climbing.

There's a difference in the quality of the games, and it shows.

Of course. Avowed is a game of high quality. Oblivion remastered is a rehash. It's like comparing a hamburger to a restaurant meal.

You're confusing quality with quantity. And it shows.

It's like Tyranny. Lacks polish, inegal but still lots of fun and replayability.

Been playing it on Gamepass since Oblivion came out. Wanted to play Oblivion, but i already know the story and remaster wont help with that, so i choose Avowed. I like it so far (third map). Its an enjoyable game. Would i pay 50 Euro for it? Probably not, but 20-30 Euro its worth. Def buying it once its on discount here.
