I’m ready for this game, it looks so good! Obsidian has the storytelling chops to make this world come alive, Bethesda could never.
Why even bring up Bethesda? Obsidian made one game for them for a development cycle of 18 months. It's weird to use their new game as an opportunity to claim Bethesda couldn't make a game like this.
Eh, I thought I was being funny, my attempt failed. I was poking fun at Bethesda because they’ve put games that were either bland or watered down like Skyrim, Fallout 4, Starfield for example. Avowed feels fresh and interesting to me, I’m excited about visiting the Living Lands and experiencing that story.
Don't get me wrong they have made some real watered down-ass rpgs (i have never been more hyped than i was for fallout 4 and was massively let down lololol) but it just seemed like a weird place to bring it up.
