Day 1

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

Yellow jacket guy diologue and voice acting

 

[danklord]

Dual Wielding wands really looks like... we'll be having... a time... in our lives...

 

[Jose92]

Why was the guy's head sweating can't they afford an AC ?

The game looks good.

 

[Krieger]

Not even sites with XBOX in its name would praise this game.

 

[GooseMan69]

This looks like a game you’d see on a TV ad for a tech school in 2005.

yeah that was awfull

 

[MidGenRefresh]

Day 1!

 

[N0S]

Day 1!

With GP

 

[Crayon]

WOOOOOOOOOOO So close!!! I'm going to be balls deep in tekken and ff but this is next!

 

[Luck]

Looks... boring

 

[adamsapple]

Looked great, seems to have taken care of most people's complaint about the art style issues.

Day one, baybay!

 

[Elbereth]

At least the key art looks good…

 

[MidGenRefresh]

With GP

Steam.

 

[gtabro]

So we still don't know almost anything about the
- skills
- classes
- companions
- zones
- overarching goal(s)
- flora/fauna
..?

 

[R3TRO]

Obsidian rarely misses so I’m in.

 

[Laptop1991]

Still on the fence to be honest, i'm not hyped by what i've seen so far, need to see even more before i'm sold.

 

[Darsxx82]

Look visually good now and i think we only saw The surface of the game.

 

[Sanepar]

Looks a lot better than Starfield, ilumination, animation and textures.

June.

Reassured on the production side, especially art direction and world, the game looks fairly ambitious.

I think the segment about quests was lame but whatever. I'm not convinced yet but i'll definitely play it.

 

[Labadal]

That 21st century writing in a fantasy world. Ugh. Even worse than The Outer Worlds and Deadfire writing.

Everything else felt like a mixed bag. Sad to see where one of my favorite studios of all time are now.

 

[DarthPutin]

Still looks like very decent VR game to me Dunno, I really like fantasy settings, choices and moral dilemmas but don't like First Person.

I was mostly enchanted by how every developer who had spoken could've been transported into the game as some fantasy character, from chick with mild version of Sanpaku eyes, to a guy with a shiny triangle dome to the guy with metrosexual Gnome beard...

 

[CherryFalls]

It looks ok for a small dev team dipping their toes in the rpg genre for the first time

 

[Mister Wolf]

Looks good to me. Avowed > Starfield.

 

[Tarnpanzer]

Combat looked boring, but I guess u have to play it yourself to really assess it.

 

[near]

If this turns out shit it'll be the last Obsidian game I buy day one. The Outers Worlds was a disappointment, but this has promise.

 

[analog_future]

Looks amazing! One of my most anticipated games of the year.

 

[LordCBH]

Best thing they showed at the thing. Graphics aren’t great, but I love obsidian and know I’ll have fun with it.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

IMO, I suspect Avowed might suffer from the high expectations: "Next gen Skyrim" and so on. But at the same time, Obsidian might just succeed. Hard to tell.

 

[kruis]

[XXL]

I still have faith this will a good game in the end, but it doesn't look great when being shown.

I'm cautiously optimistic.

 

[ChoosableOne]

7/10 the game.

 

[Raven117]

Could be good. Depends of Obsidian found their footing on writing or if they keep going down the "do it by committee" and make it lame.

 

[Kacho]

This legit looks like a VR game

I’m in day 1 regardless but I’m not getting my hopes up. We’ll see.

 

[Alebrije]

Obsidian delivered an average Fallout on space Game, it seems this Will be the case to this Game...Will be compared to Elders Scrolls Sky Rim and Will fail...

The Game looks average , nothing new won't be a Game You Will remember by 2030 but also do not think Will flop,

 

[DenchDeckard]

Day one for me. I enjoy their games. I did all of outer worlds and dlc. I imagine this will be pretty good.

 

[Reave]

Quite frankly, this game looks terrible.

 

[Mister Wolf]

IMO, I suspect Avowed might suffer from the high expectations: "Next gen Skyrim" and so on. But at the same time, Obsidian might just succeed. Hard to tell.

Avowed already looks better than Starfield that's for sure.

 

[Laptop1991]

I really like The Outer Worlds, but so far there is something off about the visuals or art style of Avowed and the combat looked slow and clunky to me, reminded me of Oblivion from 2006, now this all might be improved by release but i'm not sold on the game at the minute and i love quite a few Obsidian games.

 

[Skifi28]

I wasn't interested before, now I'll be deleting it from my memory.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Looks like a low rate Skyrim or Dragon Age. Better than Starfield though!

 

[Phase]

Oh god it looks so bad. And after Outer Worlds I have no faith in Obsidian.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

As much as I wish that they had gone fully realistic with the visuals I'm very happy that they tone down some of the cartoony-ness. It is kind of hilarious that it looks like a Full Sail College commercial, but I still think I'll like it

 

[Fabieter]

Besides vision of mana this was actually the best looking game today.

 

[Punished Miku]

This looks significantly better than I was expecting. I'm honestly wondering if you guys watched this on a 200p stream or on a TV. The environments look extremely good and varied. Looks like Unreal 5 photogrammetry stuff similar to Jusant in the desert rock sections. The water is definitely better than Starfield. I had very low expectations and this definitely exceeded it. Just hoping for a good story. Love the key art too, which I assume is the cover.

This is what they revealed:


This is what we got:

Yeah, it just didn’t do anything for me. Looks pretty mediocre so far, but let’s hope for better during further info dumps.

I don't think anyone is expecting this to be the next Skyrim.

I think it looks kind of mid but given the pedigree, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.
