Xbox exclusive Avowed is the new game from Fallout: New Vegas and The Outer Worlds creator Obsidian and we've already played two hours of it.
Avowed – it looks a lot like Skyrim GameCentral goes hands-on with the new role-player from the makers of Fallout: New Vegas, in a game that shares a lot of similarities with The Elder Scrolls . Avowed still feels like a bit of a mystery. While Microsoft has started to mention it more frequently, as we approach its February release date, what it’s about, what its focuses are, and what makes it unique are still a little hard to parse.
It’s clear Avowed is going to have a focus on slinging magic, and even before I’d left the prologue island a handful of various spells were already available across several elemental types. The broader sense of combat actually felt like a strong suit of Avowed, which isn’t always the case with first person melee combat. This wasn’t just whacking a mace on an enemy until they died. Even earlier on, you have a lot of stamina to dart and move quickly.
