Avowed Delayed!

Spread the News

Avowed is a first-person RPG being developed by Obsidian Entertainment. Taking place in the same universe as Pillars of Eternity, players explore the world of Eora using both rune-based magic and sword combat.

What to Expect From Avowed’s Third-Person Mode

One of Microsoft’s most anticipated games of next year is Avowed. Created by Obsidian Entertainment — the studio behind Fallout: New Vegas and The Outer Wilds — Avowed is a fantasy RPG in the Pillars of Eternity universe that places heavy emphasis on both player decisions and combat. While the game bears a resemblance to Obsidian’s previous RPG titles, one highly requested feature will allow players to view the Living Lands from multiple perspectives.

The Outer Worlds was met with positive reviews from critics and players alike, but there was a notable absence from the game when compared to many other Bethesda-style RPGs: the ability to toggle to a third-person view. Many fans complained about this omission. Some wondered why they had devoted time to customizing a character that they would never get to see outside of menus, while others who suffer from motion sickness were frustrated about not having the option to change perspectives. After all, the feature made its way into the gameplay of Fallout: New Vegas, which was released in 2010. Though Avowed has primarily shown off first-person gameplay, Obsidian has confirmed that players will have the option to play the game in third-person.
