Avowed's smaller scale may not only be a boon, but it could give it a leg-up on the open-world titles it once sought to replicate.

Perfect Dark would be cool but I’m hoping for Fable. I’m really interested where they’ve taken the game.
Looking ahead now, I'd say Avowed is what I'm looking forward to most in the fall. Obsidian's been nothing but quality and consistency so I can't wait to see what they've been cooking
The upcoming RPG Avowed is based on the Pillars of Eternity series, whose second game has a great inclusion that may be hard for Avowed to equal.
One is a top down arpg one is a first person game. They’re not comparable other than the fantasy setting.
lol what the heck kind of story is that…they aren’t even compatible unless you force them to be like you are.
Avowed is likely going to be roughly the size of The Outer Worlds, and its skill trees may suffer if they aren't built according to the game's scale.
If it's smaller scale then they can work on those graphics.
"This is a growing issue with fantasy and sci-fi media as a whole. Dungeons and Dragons' Forgotten Realms setting, for example, is constantly adding more spells and playable ancestries, but many of the later addition not only lack development or conflict with established material, but threaten to become superfluous."
Baldur's Gate 3 says hello.
Could be so probably not.
