I actually like the combat if you play on the hardest setting. Had to learn to stealth attack for the opening attack then shield up. I'm wearing heavy plate while duel wielding a wand and pistol. Have the long gun for backup. I think the shield spell and life leach spell are must have. Can pretty much brawl with those spells. Story is just kinda whatever and makes me laugh at how basic it is.

Only one thing really matters for games. Do I look forward to my next play session? The answer for Avowed is yes, absolutely. Started great, got stale, now great again.

See it as an action game, not a large scale RPG. It’s a really good action game. Can only speak for bow/shield/dagger, btw.

That video's hilarious. Honestly most people trying to defend this game come off as the type of people who are simply trying to defend a sunken cost fallacy, doesn't matter if it's monetary or time. I have seen enough and still see enough to convince me this game has absolutely nothing to offer me. If you're willing to put up with it and mediocre is good enough for you, well good for you I guess. I just don't want to support anything made by the type of people who made this, and it's easy for me to avoid when the best people can come up with is "it's not that bad it's okay" and I am always seeing what looks like a boring world with loads of pandering and very little interactivity.

This just isn't a good time for western RPG's right now. This is simply the latest one to focus on for now. Doesn't help how it's also been one of the big Xbox projects this gen.

As an action game it's way better than mediocre for me. It's in the category of good. So many awesome sights now I'm nearing the end. And it's not a woke game, it's just the shitty art director.
