Hardly any difference between the characters you can make in Avoid and Baldur's Gate 3. Of course they're going to show off the diversity, because they're token-collecting liberals.
A Gith in BG3 looks like a Gith, a tiefling in BG3 looks like a tiefling, etc.
A Godlike in Avowed DOES NOT look like a Godlike.

How the fuck do you go from this...

2D portaits versus 3D graphics. A more appropriate comparison would be the Pillars godlike models with the Avowed models.

The characters look fine tbh
these are player characters of devs, not npcs. they might give npcs facelifts this time around too tho if they aren't completely brain rotten yet
You sure NPCs can't be devs?
pay up 20 shekels extra for 5 days head start :shredder:

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. Serpent in the Staglands Dead State Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 A Beautifully Desolate Campaign Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
Those character portraits look like Tiktok zoomers making a sulky face at the camera rather than like Keith Parkinson illustrations from the 1980s, but they're not actually unattractive.

Hi.

CLOUD SHADOWS along with DAYLIGHT and NIGHTTIME is a MUST!

gosh if Adam Brennecke is still with Obsidian he would have made it happen because he listedn the last time during the development of DEADFIRE.

Thanks,
Sherry
Dear Sherry,

I’m glad to hear such a WARM words from YOU, it breaks my HEART to tell you that our dear Adam is preoccupied with far more important matters at hand. Somebody has to pull Obsidian from the GROUND(*wink:*wink) aftervow, but rest assured what we listen to all your pleads. Hope you’ll like our game as much as we do.

Love,
Karry&Katty

Forgot this was even a thing and just looked up some footage. One of the things I really enjoyed about PoE was that sombre, melancholic tone it had without drifting into dark fantasy. Completely different approach here, shame.

Do godlikes or whatever have Daredevil-esque senses to make up for random shit on their face?

They all had different minor buffs to make up for not being able to wear head gear.
