I really liked Avowed. It’s the first RPG since Skyrim that gave me a similar feeling. I’m almost finished with it, currently 45 hours in, which makes it the first game I’ve played this much in the last five years.
That said, I agree that it’s a bit shallow, and the story isn’t as strong as Skyrim’s. The combat actually reminded me more of Horizon Zero Dawn than Skyrim. It’s not on the level of Baldur’s Gate 3 or Skyrim, but for me, it’s easily deeper than Fallout 4, Fallout 3, or Starfield. The combat is really fun and engaging—I played as a wizard, and it was a blast.
I have to admit, I skipped some dialogues toward the end of the game because a lot of them felt like filler rather than meaningful interactions. Still, I’d rate it an 8/10 and definitely recommend it.
I'm sorry, Skyrim combat is deep?
No, I meant the overall depth of the game, not the depth of the combat. I don’t think Skyrim has deep combat —maybe I didn’t phrase it clearly.
I mean a lot of it takes place underground
