If you’re gonna make an open world first person fantasy game, it’s gonna get compared to Skyrim no matter who you are
Skyrim is one of the best games. Avowed looks similar but prettier and less janky. The comparison is giving it positive attention.
I always felt like Skyrim was… fine. People lost their minds about it but I never thought it was actually that good.
I played it at a lan party when it first came out. We all had a blast and after a day of playing we had wildly different stories and experiences.
Its an awesome game, and with mods you could get another games worth of fun out of it IMHO, but I don’t think its the end game of games like they treat it. It can be better (mods show just some of that potential), and they’re are other games.
If they made the same exact game as Skyrim, but in a modern engine that wasn’t built on a sandy foundation, it would already be a better game.
It shouldn’t be hard to replicate the good while removing the bad. And yet I’ve yet to see it actually happen.
Lmao is it built on an engine that was a decade old two decades ago and held together with duct tape and a rainbow coalition of unofficial patches? I think Avowed will do just fine.
Weird. It reminded me of Outer Worlds (an Obsidian game)
I liked it a lot, although the DLCs were far more memorable than the base game.
