Have they released numbers yet? Surely it has sold pretty well, the word of mouth must be decent.

I will admit I haven’t watched the video (I’m going to when I get home) but I thought Avowed was doing pretty well?

A number of major podcasts and outlets are signing its praises. It has some divisive scores for sure, but I’ve certainly anecdotally heard way more praise than criticism from games media, and friends of mine who are playing.

Obsidian have been on a pretty decent roll for quite some time. Avowed is exactly what Gamepass was seeking to support - smaller focused games, and it ain’t even that small. 30-50 hours from what I’m hearing.

I’m not even a massive fan of the genre, or the studio, but I don’t really get the negativity surrounding the game. Seems pretty successful by most metrics to me.

Alrighty, I’m going to give it a real go when I finish moving house and see how it goes.

I mean, the wrong way like he always does?

I don’t live in Australia anymore, but every time I check into the ABC lately it’s looking more and more embarrassing. This is the first time in a while Albo seemed to actually do something that showed some backbone, even though it was a token show of support.
