I can't help but feel a sense of pride. Pattern recognition is taking hold in the mind of many a gamer and they are remembering scandals rather than forgetting about them a few days, weeks or months after they take place.

I don't know what's going on, but Avowed's steam forums is now a redirect back to the store page.

Did they... shut down their entire community tab?

Such a weird game. It seems not even Obsidian know what to genuinelly sell it on. Given that it was kickstarted by management (own IP + $kyrim-like = $$$) and they scaled that back, that figures though.

Not to rain on a good victory parade, but:

Duds recognize patterns in lottery numbers, football results and their morning poop.

All it evidently takes is another dud on the interweb pointing them into the right directions -- and Bob's their cancelled uncle.

Entire community hub redirects there so there might be something else going on than just related to the discussion.

Not sure if it's their fault too, to be honest Steam acted very weirdly last few days.

It even deleted most of my screenshots, and all recent ones.

Such stuff never happened before, either Steam is under some attack for days or someone somewhere severely fucked up.

Didn't even know that was possible. Expect a lot of that in the future then.

That's a step in the right direction, but what they should actually do is shut down the game's development too.

Hi.

dive.
Dive!
DIVE!

Gosh what a mess right? Folks want a job so they can have a roof over their head and put food on the table and clothes on their backs and just come in and do what they are hired to do okay. Then you have these snorkels who go to social media and make a political statement to draw a line in the sand and mess up everyone who worked on the game and did only that who are now wondering if they will still have that job doing what they enjoy doing becaus3e of one snorkel on their team. Oh gosh! Happy New Year to all of you :hug: Now because of one snorkel in Obsidian making a post the entire community on Steam is closed fomr posts and you have one of the best posts by sosmoflux that puts the cherry on top of the entire Veilguard push-up barve with one single word - Byeoware - go give it a top-rated emoji okay? OKAY! this Croinne Busche is also a snorkel tanking an entire studio and then leaving with the nerve to say "BioWare still has a lot of work to do culturally, but I do believe they are on the right footing now."

They have no more feet to stand on you snorkel!

NEVER HIRE A SNORKEL!!!

Thanks,
Sherry

That's the thing, it shouldn't be an option. I've never seen this, even on scam games that Steam announces "this is a scam and we're refunding everyone."

Bodes ill.

No, I want this to release so I can laugh at it.

The jannies must have had a mental breakdown over the Steam forums. That place doesn't actually pull punches, doubly so when it's a high profile game. I guess even with the help of Steams poojeet brigade they couldn't stem the tide of troll threads

"Don't talk about it and it'll go away" - Feargus Urquhart

"Delete that forum!" - Feargus Urquhart nearly two months later

Good thing his own forum is a largely dead place (where they deleted the one topic that asked about it)

The plot thickens

Hey!

I decided to search Avowed on my library and it's gone, for some reason.

The purchase is still there on my account, the game page on the store says that I already have the game, but I just can't find it lol

Any of you with the same problem?
On Steamdb there are interesting updates for the game
