Either way, the fact that Avowed 's gods were inventions of mortals and there is no true higher power that created the universe taps in to a Lovecraftian sense of dread. That dread will likely be infused into Avowed 's plot in a way that the Godhead and CHIM are unlikely to ever play a central role in an Elder Scrolls games. How exactly Avowed plans to handle its story remains to be seen, but the creeping existential unease that hangs over Avowed 's universe will almost certainly be felt, and could be one of the key ways the game's tone distinguishes itself from The Elder Scrolls seri There are a few reasons why Obsidian's situation may not be as bad as it sounds, however. Not only has Microsoft given the studio some much-needed stability, but The Outer Worlds ' commercial success exceeded the financial expectations of publisher Private Divisions . The Outer Worlds is not without its flaws, but with Bethesda otherwise dominating the first-person RPG market, it provided a respite from Bethesda's two main franchises and the long wait for their next installments. While Obsidian's CRPGs sometimes struggled commercially, the studio's penchant for more traditional RPG design also stood out in contrast to games like Fallout 4 , which has often been described as a better shooter than an RPG, even by fans of the Fallout franch There simply aren't diverse dragon characters with that level of complexity in Skyrim . Indeed, only Alduin , Parthurnaax, and Odahviing really exist as dragon characters in Skyrim at all. [https://reconcavoafrofestival.com/ Avowed Secrets] has the potential to introduce far more interesting dragon characters that aren't bogged down by the need for them to be the subject of infinite random combat scenar While Avowed is undoubtedly a huge undertaking, Obsidian Entertainment somehow has another project in the works that could be equal to the scale of Avowed, if not greater. Josh Sawyer, design director at Obsidian Entertainment, took to Twitter in August 2020 and noted in no uncertain terms that he's directing his own project and that the project isn't Avowed. Josh Sawyer worked on the Icewind Dale and Neverwinter Nights series early in his career. More recently, he was responsible for pitching Pillars of Eternity which saw the company get out of a tight financial spot, and went on to direct the two games in that series. He's perhaps most well-known for directing Fallout: New Vegas, a fan-favorite entry in the post-apocalyptic RPG ser While fans may have gotten a very small update on Metroid Prime 4 , the other big Nintendo Switch game that has seemingly dropped off the radar continued its vow of silence. Bayonetta 3 was originally revealed with a tiny teaser trailer back in 2017 at The Game Awards. Since that point, the game has been missing in action completely, even with Platinum developers not willing to talk about In Pillars of Eternity it is revealed that the entire pantheon of Eora, including Wael, were inventions of an ancient society known as Engwith. The Engwithans became masters of soul science, and set out to answer the metaphysical questions of the universe. One day, however, they discovered a simple, horrifying truth - there was nothing out there. No gods, not even a Godhead or an Azathoth imagining the universe by pure accident. Faced with that unbearable reality, the Engwithans set out to sacrifice as many souls as necessary to create gods of their own. They succee Todd Howard recently announced that The Elder Scrolls 6 is still "in the design phase" over three years after its initial reveal, with the studio focusing primarily on Starfield , its first new IP in over 25 years. It's likely that, similar to Bethesda, most of Obsidian's resources are currently focused on Avowed . The Outer Worlds 2 's trailer may have poked fun at games announced long before their development had begun in earnest, but it's also likely a self-confessed culprit of exactly t The gods of Eora , the setting of Avowed, have some surface-level Lovecraftian influence. Wael is the god of mysteries, dreams, and revelations, resembling both the dreaming Godhead and Hermaeus Mora in The Elder Scrolls . Wael is covered in eyes and mouths resembling the malignant globes of Azathoth. However, there's one main difference between the role Lovecraft's influence plays in Tamriel and Eora that changes everyth Obsidian has become an extremely productive developer with several projects in the pipeline at the moment. While some of these games are unlikely to be released for a few years, many fans are excited about what the studio has in store for the gaming industry. Since Microsoft bought Obsidian , it seems that the team has been ramping up development, and with Microsft behind them, it seems as though it has more resources accessible to them than ever bef As such, Avowed seemed to be the odd man out this year, though the game was briefly mentioned at the end of the show by Xbox head Phil Spencer. With The Outer Worlds 2 likely in very early development, Avowed is likely Obsidian's next major game release , which means more news could be coming later in 2021 at one of the various game events left this y
