Eternity Avowed - Obsidian's first person action-RPG in the Pillars of Eternity setting - coming February 18th

[Ovplain]

Heh, an FPS set in a world that traditionally had isometric RPGs based on it?

Kind of like Fallout 3.

...

Oh no.

Except this one's not named 'Pillars of Eternity 3.' So right off the bat, I for one am fine with it.

...

Oh no.

This time nobody cares though

 

[undecaf]

Is it turn based

Not a chance, but it should be.

 

[Nano]

It's not just the trailer, the title itself is boring and generic.

 

[cb.spike]

Has Feargus always used eyeliners and sounded like Tiger King?

 

[Sailor Woedica]

 

[Quillon]

I like the music but knowing Obs they probably paid for it just for the trailer.

It'll prolly take place in Aedyr, going even safer for the setting.

 

[Zombra]

Will this be more like Deus Ex, Outer Worlds, or Bioshock 3?

More importantly, will they actually finish it this time or rush it to market like OW and call it good?

Website is live, nothing much as expected: https://avowed.obsidian.net/

But confirms this is cross-gen game.

• Xbox Series X
• Xbox One
• Xbox Game Pass
• Windows 10 PCs

Meh, I just wanted to bitch that it's for consoles, so why should we care.
Now I have to bitch that's obviously made mainly with consoles in mind, so one has to expect shitty controls. Thanks for ruining my last two minutes.

Spoiler

On top of the rest thats probably going to be shitty.

Spoiler

The true question is: Will it be balanced?

 

[FreeKaner]

lol

 

[Maculo]

It was hard to see the PoE connection at first, because there was no female narrator to flatly read from a wall of text.

 

[FreeKaner]

I bet all of my money that this will be set ages before POE so they don't have to add flintlock guns.

It's matchlock, there isn't much to add except a reload animation.

 

[AwesomeButton]

I have a mild erection. We'll see.

At your age, you can't be picky.

Without mods it's already dead. And there won't be mods - just look at their space oblivion clone.

Nonsense, it will be maintained by its strong writing.

 

[Mortmal]

Another game that will come for free on xbox pass, or bundled with your brand new gtx 3080. No doubt the strengh of poe was it strong lore full of mystery and secrets, what a great setting to make an elderscroll cheap clone ...Obsidian is doing RPG like they could do burgers in a mcdonald now.Will awowe it too.

 

[jackofshadows]

I like the idea actually, not gonna lie. But the trailer is very underwhelming.

I like the music but knowing Obs they probably paid for it just for the trailer.

Nah. It actually sounds like something composed by Justin Bell.

 

[Drowed]

Are you telling me that Obsidian (technically) did to themselves what Bethesda did to Fallout?

 

[Aemar]

Sawyer seems to be anticipating the target audience.

 

[The Wall]

MUCH aWOWed! SO PREORDERED! Gonna jerk myself to sleep watching trailer on loop which at first I mistook for new Lords Mobile promo. Thank you Microsoft for feeding Obsidians with creme brulee and pork chops so they can keep feeding us with more shit

 

[Delterius]

i hope stealth archery is properly balanced this time

I liked this track here, turned out they paid for it:
