Most people say they enjoy the game. I generally enjoy the game. But it's also completely lifeless, uninteresting and ultimately forgettable. And that's what most people ultimately come to. They only recommend it through gamepass, because gamepass is a budget service made for games that you might feel are worth trying but don't actually want to buy.

How many outright say you should buy the game full price as soon as possible? How many are even remotely that convincted in their recommendation? They're all very ho-hum, trying their best to not be negative. But the general apathy is hard not to see; though people here have obviously trained themselves well to not see what they don't want to.

It's not like I wanted this game to be disappointing either. I just won't lie to myself about it.

Disagree, I enjoy the game, I also think it is interesting and the world will likely stick with me, it makes me almost want to play Pillars of Eternity 1/2 because I'm loving the lore but I dislike those types of videogames, instead I'll likely go on a lore deep-dive on Wiki, Lol. You're plucking your assumptions out of thin air because you're sucked up in negativity.

Anyway, I saw plenty of people on ResetEra telling people to dip into the early access because they were loving it instead of simply waiting for it to become "free" on Game Pass. Thousands of people dipped into the early access on Steam for $90 which was a complete rip-off low-key and I would not have paid $90 at all for 5 days early and a few free skins and yet during early access period, Avowed had over 80% in user rating on Steam, implying people were happy with their decision to be ripped off, Lmao.

I would absolutely recommend Avowed but why the hell would I recommend anyone who has access to Game Pass to buy the game? Makes no sense. If someone has Steam only then sure, I'd recommend to buy it, as would many others, Lol. Part of the reasons I even dipped into early access was because of the very positive impressions on ResetEra tipping me over.

This feels like a dig at the thread as a whole, that we are just fanboys seeing whatever we want, and only your opinion is true, I've provided just as much, if not more, counter to your argument in this thread. I ain't lying to myself about anything, the fact that you believe that and it upsets you so much, makes me believe you just want to wallow in negativity.

I'm not that upset about Avowed, since I've already stated my expecations had already dropped low to begin with. I'm concerned about the future of other RPG franchises and the self-awareness of Xbox Game Studios to actually see what's going wrong.

If Xbox fans aren't even willing to acknowledge when they've gone wrong, how will they ever acknowledge it?
