Right now, all we can really confirm is that Avowed will be a first-person RPG, but rumors have long persisted that the game will mirror elements of Skyrim and other Elder Scrolls RPGs. Things might’ve been smoother in online co-op, which is the ideal way to play - but I got through it all alone, and with patience, you can too.(Image credit: Obsidian Entertainment) What will Avowed's gameplay be like? With the exception of a few boss battles (some of which are optional) and a late defend-three-points-and-pray mission that got really dicey, most of my struggles were frontloaded. With more excursions under your belt, a stable place to call home and craft at, and better gear sourced from the bugs you are able to pummel, Grounded gets easier over time. Certain sets are needed for navigating fumes and underwater caves. Crafting gear out of your prey is entertaining in that Monster Hunter sort of way, and pieces have different perks and weight ratings. There’s also ranged combat with bows and a huge assortment of arrow types, as well as bombs. Each enemy has a memorable personality and particular “tells” that you can master, which I liked - but skirmishes started to feel less engaging the longer I played. Combat is fun once you’re strong enough to have more margin of error. In one-on-one fights, there’s a distinct rhythm to bouts, including “perfect blocks” that open up your opponents.
