Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming February 18th

[Sherry]

With the people involved and promotional material published I have no desire for it even if I played PoE 1 and 2.
Its a copy of skyrim basically and I already hated skyrim, why the fuck I would put money in this? At this point better its better to just buy starfield if I'm in a wish to dive into a pile of shit.
I wouldn't call generic Unreal Engine assets by looking the characters they at least tried to resemble stuff that you saw in previous pillars the Orians at least, but the scenario and enemies look meh, the animations also look souless, no gore, no blood, nothing that I can say wow at least the animation team had a hard on doing this. All clean bullshit that you see in every game even if they are slapped with a 17+ tag.

Hi.

There is gore. There is blood.

Although it is dependent on what ferocious monster you are up against. A Kith that is frozen in mid attack and killed will spew blood and explode in icy shards around you, while a Skeleton sheds no blood at all.

It's a bloody mess, but someone's gotta do it!

Thanks,
Sherry

Hi.

Here are some preset designs you can pick during the character creation, for those who just want to jump right in to the richness Eora has to offer and begin their journey.

Which one is your favorite?

Thanks,
Sherry

All these Godlike appear to be offspring of a relation between The Last of Us and a Californian millennial.

My favorite is obviously the rightmost one, third line from the top. Just for the fact that it really seems they're taking the piss.

Hi.

Do not forget, you will be able to create your own character as you'd like too with all of the available choices and sliders for customization. The presets are there for you if you do not want to spend time making a face only a mother would love.

Thanks,
Sherry

Hi,

I almost forgot to ask: is a stealth playstyle viable? What about magic or diplomacy focused ones?
Appreciate you being the voice of obsidian (the black ones.......eh as well as the multicolored ones) in these trying and confusing times here on these Codexian RPGish lands of yore.

Thanks Sherry!

Why does the axe look like a cheap CS skin. Why is the game so ugly.

Hi.

There is a stealth ability at Level 5 under the Ranger class where you can go invisible in combat to help plan out better ways of clearing out the enemies. You also receive Godlike ability that allows you to stealth-kill enemies from behind as a base for your character with melee weapons. As well, when in stealth, you will see <<hidden>> notice on your screen, and there are grasses and other ways you can stay in that state. None of the Fighter, Wizard or Ranger abilities are locked to your choice of a class, which will allow you to create the type of character you'd like to play.

Sssh we hunting Xaurips!

You will have to go in to more detail about magic or diplomacy for combat? Of course there are a slew of spells you can teach yourself, or find using the many Grimoires scattered around the land, and use in combat.

Thanks,
Sherry

What even is Awoked? A Skyrim-like? Dishonored-like? Dark Messiah of M&M-like? A walking simulator?

Wtf is this?

What even is Awoked? A Skyrim-like? Dishonored-like? Dark Messiah of M&M-like? A walking simulator?

Wtf is this?

It's part of an emerging genre called Outer Worlds-likes. They're defined by an extreme lack of scope and by homosexual content.

By today standards Avowed has almost zero homosexual content, a based game we all deserve

 

[Gandalf]

Wtf is this?

an RPG, made in California.

 

[frajaq]

Hmm how does the gay math work out? We know the midget furry is a lesbian and talks about it, but Kingdom Cum 2 has a gay sex scene that you have to REALLY go out of your way to get, what weights heavier on the scale

 

[aweigh]

Take the UE4 engine, end up with these visuals, Obsidian are truly masters of art direction.

I disliked it all around. I spent about 10 hours on the first planet, then genocided a space station and quit playing. I don't know how it's possible to make the game so repulsive, boring and cringe at the same time, but modern Obsidian are trully the masters of their craft.

i'm betting Avowed is going to be even worse.

I appreciate your answer, personally I find it fangless violence. Growing up with Soldier of Fortune and being able to enjoy recently Doom and even an indie game Half Sword, it feels like the bigger studios has the budget for good animations but they run away from it because they fear getting slapped with a +18 tag and lose sales with younger audiences where they don't realize that probably the average age of the people enjoying those single player rpg experience are probably sitting at 20+.
Kith should be able to be decapitated, dismember, set on fire, break into meaty ice chunks, fried with lightning and so on. You are probably spending a good chunk of your time doing combat in these kind games so you need to keep that shit entertaining.

Best regards,

Takamori

Your house is on fire and you are lamenting the draperies.

 

[Yosharian]

Yeah I'm way way way more concerned about things that actually matter like gameplay story mechanical depth world building writing etc than, say, the toning down of gore, or the lip sync being a bit off, or the character creator being a bit naff

Obviously we're discussing these things because they're what we know the game right now and we don't know about the other stuff, but let's not blow these things out of proportion either

TOW wasn't a bad a game because of lip sync. Or because of a lack of blood and guts flying about the place.

Ok but like without evidence to the contrary people are going to assume that what's being presented is the sum total of options

Why would you assume that? Have you never played a game with the character creator? Are you retarded? Do you not understand the word "Preset"?

"Here's a hundred pictures all showing terrible-looking presets that are basically all variations on mushroom-face, but there's definitely other options available that look way better than this. We aren't showing them though."

Umm.

 

[AwesomeButton]

They look marginally the same, but in fact the customization options are endless!

They all look like drag queens

 

[santino27]

They all have dead eyes, and thousand-yard stares that speak to horrible things they have seen when forced to be part of Avowed.

 

[TumblingTorin]

A lot of effort on different ways to give your character magic cancer. I'm pretty sure most people will make their character conventionally attractive. Larian posted a news articale about the fact that a lot of people during Early Access just made a standard white guy instead of trying a weird race.

I don't know about you guys but I rather not look like some sort of fantasy cancer patient.

The older art from POE looks way better

I dont really understand why you were paid to post here it looks like the game was made for kids and we're all boomers so why bother.
