But will it match Starfield 30 FPS on most powerful consoles? :DCodex always gives a good, wild ride! This thread is bonkers but 100% warranted. The trailer fails to show much in its 2 minute run time, which also means it fails as a trailer, many at the studio certainly agree. To clear up misconceptions though I'll say this, the game is big and open, it is unfair to compare it to OW (I think Ferg is trying to keep expectations down just in case), which I think it is nothing alike, this coming from someone who did not like much of OW, especially the art style.
The studio that did the trailer did some compression of colors and image editing, the screenshots that have been released are much more representative of what it looks like just running through it (they also are appear to be totally random shots from the game, I'm not sure why these were chosen out all the things, probably to keep spoilers at minimum). A lot of the game is being kept hidden right now, I think you will have to wait until the next trailer or some sort of presentation to really see it, but it is safe to assume it is very Obsidian, for better or for worse. No, the entire game isn't all bright and happy town, no it is not all so indistinct visually, just the spots shown in the trailer. There are lots of characters, quests, conversations, various game mechanics, big story, etc. Hopefully we can just release more shots from the game without having to worry about another trailer. I miss working on POEs where we could just leak our own shit and no one could tell us no.
I guess take that as you will. Dumpsterfire comments are bit overhype, development is going well right now, MS is allowing Obsidian free license to do as they will, and if it is success or fails it'll be on Obsidian's own terms.
I've played Deadfire recently and it looks much prettier than either DOS or both Pathfinder games. It was not about 2d or 3d.
Skyrim with guns
It's Fallout with swords (and guns).

If by "fine" you mean the environments look utterly bland, then sure. Obsidian made a big mistake going with the Pillars setting for their big wannabe triple-A RPG. It's a very dull setting, devoid of any interesting locales or creatures. The "not-D&D" approach they took, combined with Sawyer's worldbuilding idiosyncrasies, also means it lacks the charm of classical high fantasy.
From the trailer it looks like Avowed is specifically about playing a default muscle wizard.
and yet a proper skyrim clone would show us a stealth archer run. obsidian has failed yet again
That's what you get when Sawyer's not involved.
a third icewind dale clone really
Hush, don't tell anyone, but 3d White March would look even more like Skyrim
The masses expect plains and forests in fantasy games, but I don't see what's so generic about
