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

[Lacrymas]

Review roundup:

Most of these aren't serious and just random high numbers.

 

[Zboj Lamignat]

I was kinda worried this gaem might be an unexpected turd, but that 90/100 from IGN Benelux sets my mind at ease, thanks.

 

[Raghar]

Its face is weirdly scrunched together and doesn't seem to fit its head properly so looking at it is a little unsettling. I hate Orlans though so I'll admit that my bias might be showing.

The thing is, nearly every face in this game has something wrong with it. Either something about eyes or hair, or face structre or all together. Uncanny valley galore...

They hate whites. And they have hard time to imagine different species.

Look for example there, this is a simple AI image I made, and while some ratios are wrong for these ears and theirs positions on head, it radiates cuteness.

 

[AwesomeButton]

wow this game is horrible

I wouldn't say it looks worse than I expected because I've been saying it will be horrible since I saw those two clowns' first interviews.

But now that I've seen actual uncontrolled footage of it, I must say it looks bad in ways I didn't think possible.

How can anyone make such an ugly game with Unreal 5, this looks worse than Gamebryo!

This is... strangely ugly.
It's like Solasta with uncanny animations and no indie excuses.

This is... strangely ugly.

Not a graphics whore but something is off with the lighting... outdoors look bleached...

70 euros, what are they smoking?

It's ridiculous lol

 

[Tenebris]

Character creation is what we all expected. It's interesting though that you can hide the pronouns if you wish. Wonder if that's what they were afraid of showing.

 

[H. P. Lovecraft's Cat]

This looks like a fucking horror game. What are those half human half Gremlin/Gizmo abominations?

Another soulless generic interface that looks like an airport brochure, or alternatively something from the Xbox 360...

I don't like Orlans but if they absolutely must be in the game I'd rather they stayed looking like weird uncanny weasel creatures than toddlers with cat ears, especially with the weird sex talk from Yatzli in the promos.

 

[Konjad]

So, how does it compare to Outer Worlds? Is it better?

Diarrhea vs vomit. Which is better? Discuss!!1!1!

For some it doesn't matter, as long as it has Obsidian logo, Infinitron will slurp it with every orifice of his body.

[Russia is over. The end.]

You know Obsidian made the most mediocre game ever known to mankind when even Infinitron doesn't do his shilling on the front page.

I'm at work, wait for it.

I thought shilling shitty western soycuck RPGs was your work. Man, you do it for free??!

I couldn't bring myself to.

I already know this game, I've already finished it multiple times.

I'm a new guy arriving in the region, with some made up name - Insquisitor, Ambassador, Watcher, Chosen One, Nameless One, Dickless One. So I arrive there. And there is Something Mysterious that is giving everyone A Bad Time. I have to Investigate it. I meet Obligatory Companions. They introduce me to Factions. In the end the Something Mysterious has some God standing behind it. I get to choose if I want to ally with the Mysterious Something or not. I get different ending slides. Amazing C&C.

You're welcome. That'll be 70 bucks.

But this time you can do it all while vomiting because of disgusting companions!

Old skool CRPG connaisseurs should be loving Avowed. Newfag Bearfuckers need to look elsewhere.

 

[luj1]

Nothing old school in this...

Do you mean like this? It's not the same species, but the first image was image of underage girl that is growing.

Xbox 360 is now Old skool. Previous century games are now Ancient.

 

[Tel Velothi]

Looks like Skyrim total conversion mod made by Ubisoft

Doesn't help that this piece of turd is 70 GB (as in disk space size) too.
