  • I don’t know why you linked to a Tweet that links to a video.

    Bullet points:

    • Avowed had a co-op focus early in development, now changed to a traditional Obsidian singleplayer RPG
    • Avowed is Obsidian’s version of what a fantasy first-person RPG is
    • Finding the right balance between taking things from Pillars of Eternity and yet creating a new game that is more approachable for a larger audience
    • “With Avowed, wee focus on unique bespoke content, deep systems and incredible storytelling that’s focused on characters, societies and factions”
    • “Avowed is the natural extension of all the things we care about as a studio, of all the things we are great at.”
    • Obsidian showed Avowed to Microsoft as early as part of the acquisition process






  • I simply live without most things. I have a ten year old laptop and a discount Android phone from about four years ago, and that’s it. No television, no console, no smart watch, no subscriptions to anything other than my internet connection which is also the slowest available.

    I can stream YouTube, which I also use for music, I can do banking, I read the news. I don’t feel like I am missing out.
