That is a given I think.
I really hope Obsidian show more of Avowed!
Josh Sawyer is a treasure in the gaming industry and must be protected at all costs! Fallout New Vegas really did him in though. So as much as I would love for him to direct another AAA game in general, I doubt that's going to happen again :( I'm really excited to see this new project though! Disco Elysium-like has been the term thrown around, which would be amazing!
It's been a good while since I've been impressed with Obsidian. Hopefully Microsoft's money will make a difference.
Interesting but what happened to Avowed? In my humble opinion it feels like Microsoft is focusing way too much on quantity and smaller scale titles. Which makes sense for the game pass model but where are the bangers?
It's heavily rumored that Avowed will have a gameplay reveal at the Xbox/Bethesda showcase next week. Supposedly, early 2023 is the heavy rumor for a release date. Josh Sawyer isn't leading that team though, which is how he was able to work on this smaller project. I have to imagine he's serving at least as a consultant on Avowed though since the Pillars of Eternity universe is his baby.
What is theory based on exactly?
Where are you getting this lol
