Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
The_Terrible_Humbaba@slrpnk.net 3 days agoI was enjoying Avowed a lot but got a bit disappointed after reaching the second area/city, lost a lot of steam and haven’t picked it up again in a while.
I was trying to roleplay a certain kind of character, one who didn’t like the idea of messing with soul essence and agreed with the empire about disallowing it, only to be forced to accept it and take in an expert on the the topic to help her perform experiments. Really dampened my experience.

The companion system is definitely a weak point. The companions themselves are fine, but you can’t refuse any and have very limited choice in party composition.
You can disagree with them at some points, and you can influence their story, but the gameplay impact is pretty much nothing.
The impact your choices can have on the world are definitely bigger - and visible in the game itself. I won’t spoil it, but there’s a pretty huge consequence not long after meeting Giatta.
