Thanks to Xbox Game Piss I can try out Avowed until Monster Hunter Wilds comes out.
I am not too deep into it yet. The combat is fun. Though with my bad eyesight it is kinda hard to dodge projectiles. I should look into the accessibility settings for this. My character is a wand toting mage who belongs to Ravenclaw.
The world is somewhat interesting. I think it’s too close to the tropey DnD fantasy setting with guns and funghi thrown in but it is alright so far. I have come to not expect too much from AAA games in this department. Writing and voice acting are ordinary too.
Anyone else playing this?
I’m playing it too and so far I’m liking it a lot. Although some dialogue options are a bit lib, I’ve been enjoying trying to be as anticolonial as I can since the game have a pretty big empire colonization plot so far. Also, Kai is a pretty cool companion, I expected him to be much more different personality wise given how other NPCs talk about him, but he’s really level headed and a cool dude overall.
I’m also doing a mage build, but I have a shield and sword as my second loadout. I got a pretty sick flaming sword and it is too cool for me no to use lol.
