Started on Avowed even though I'm not quite done with Indiana Jones yet, will try and play some of both each day until I get Indy done. My early impressions of Avowed:

+Fun combat, basically Elder Scrolls but better (hopefully Bethesda takes some lessons from it)
+Game looks great running with fairly high settings on my PC
+Story seems interesting so far
+Good music and voice acting so far

-Performance isn't great on a somewhat older mid-range CPU like mine, with a pretty good amount of stutter, and neither lowering graphics settings nor turning on frame generation really helps all that much with the stuttering issue, it's just that Unreal 5 is very CPU intensive and you really need a newer CPU with 3D Cache to run UE5 games properly (though it runs significantly better on my PC than Indiana Jones does at least)

-The character creation is somewhat lackluster, not as many sliders as I would like to see, and body customization is even more limited, with only a male and female human and elf body, for 4 bodies total. No lighting change option and no option to change your character after initial creation.
