Why would ANYONE play this over KoA:R or Skyrim?

[e N e L]

I considered buying this, now I know, slop but than I wondered,
Why ANYONE would play this over Kingdoms of Amalur:Reckoning or Skyrim?
The RPG systems are undercooked, the "immersive sim" part of the game doesnt exist at all, its just a "combat puzzle" game with mid combat, the story is BAD, just straight up objectively sloppy writing liek its someones first time
In KoA:R You have one of the bestclass systems to date still, combat and exploration are fun and NPCs arent just Unreal Engine5 props
In Skyrim...in skyrim You can do everything this game wishes it was capable of! Give it 2 months and you will be able to play Awoved, BETTER, inside skyrim as a mod!

Why on earth would anyone play this game for 70 bucks when its literally worse than these two games that are 15+ years old each?

[VeraelHasta]

Because they are old games and I already played them. Twice.
And I don't need to pay 70. I can pay 10 and play on GP or wait for a discount.
Shocking, I know.

[LazyJoeBeard]

Just because i finished skyrim(which I KNOW you didnt) why would i polay something of this low quality? I toss 3 mods on skyrim and becomes a better game than this ever can be
seeing the wapid combat and the characterless artstyle of this game makes me want to finally do that 1:1:1 Polymath run on Kingdoms of Amalur
Skyrim and KoA have 100s if not 1000s of hours of content( i have 1.2k hours in KoA and about 6k in skyrim and I still have stuff to do in both) while this slop has like what? 40 hours of midness?

But you are the one calling my man. We don't tell you to go play Avowed. It is you who tries to tell us that we should be playing something else.

You're seriously asking why people like games you don't like?

Shouldn't think it's that difficult to work out. Remember the bit in Skyrim where you had to choose between saving the Imperial or saving the Nord, and the guy you saved actually turned out to be helpful in future? Of course you don't, because it doesn't happen, whoever you saved will simply vanish once their part in the tutorial is over. Or the time you went off and rose through the ranks of the Mages guild, becoming proclaimed as Archmage by everyone ... inside a small room, because apparently even the people who literally live a few minutes down the road from the guild never got the memo and can't figure out who you are from the archmage gear you're wandering about with. Then of course there's all of those wonderful choices you can make through the game, like .. doing a quest or not doing a quest, because actual meaningful choices are strangely absent. Or the wonderful level of 'immersion', where Jarl Baalgrulf summons you to his throne to discuss matters of Plot Import and you spend the entire time trying to balance a bucket on his head, without him even suggesting your behaviour might be a bit rude, nor will his personal guard intervene to find out what you're doing to their Jarl. In fact so unconcerned is the Jarl that should you succeed he'll happily spend the rest of his days governing Whiterun while wearing a bucket as a hat, and nobody in the whole settlement will make mention of it.
Put bluntly Skyrim is no different to any other modern open world slop; it gives you a large map with a few hundred little icons representing rides. It let's you choose which rides you want to go on, but the rides only really work while you're on them; once you've finished the Thieves Guild ride that's it; nothing in the game will notice or care that you've been on it. You as the 'hero' aren't really involved in anything that's happening beyond picking a ride, nor do your choices really matter; at best you certain quests can lock you out of others, but only because they happen to remove a key NPC needed for the other chain, not because of any intent.

Avowed on the other hand has you making choices from within the tutorial that will reverberate throughout the rest of the story. Characters and NPC's react to your decisions, and how you deal with certain characters or situations will affect what you can do and what happens in the future. It has multiple endings with numerous variants depending on the choices you made, and at 40 hours long there's a good chance you can replay it to see how certain choices might change that ending. Avowed actually feels like an RPG. Skyrim on the other hand feels like a toybox.

Because I played Skyrim, Oblivion, KoA often enough.

You're right, thats why I paid $90 instead! I've play them both KOAR and Skyrim . Whats the problem here? I'm going to eventually go back and buy W40k SM2, as well as the new Class for the W40k IM, then after that I might give Elex another try, maybe I missed something. Possibly finally just buy Dreadhunter! BL4 is just around the corner, as well OW2, ES6, Crimson Desert.

Because KoA is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ single-player WoW and Skyrim is just a bunch of auto-generated draugr caves with a bad combat system and a bunch of RPG elements they only left in because cutting them would have been more of a hassle than just not using them?
I can understan why people can choose KCD2 or Witcher/CP2077 over this game, but KoA or Bethesda game, thats beyond me.

Consume new product, look forward to new product.

But hey, at least you understand that Avowed is not worth the 70 USD price.
