"We could go off and create an 8km x 8km open world and then deal with all the consequences of that-because that makes it a different style game," Urquhart said. Instead, Avowed will have a similar scale to Obsidian's scifi RPG, The Outer Worlds. Obsidian CEO Feargus Urquhart told us that, while Avowed's original pitch was a sprawling open world like Skyrim, the studio shifted to a more focused scope to emphasize Obsidian's strengths.

The Avowed gameplay reveal shows the player character firing dual-wielded flintlock pistols, but we'll have to see whether other flintlock fantasy options are available. Sharing a setting with Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity games, Avowed is in a fantasy world where society has discovered the powerful magic of shooting bullets at guys. I don't want to just say that Avowed is like Skyrim with guns, but, well-there it is. It's possible that some of these are a separate category of active abilities, like Skyrim's dragon shouts or racial powers. The exact way spells are wielded isn't clear yet: Some clips show the player character casting a spell with one glowy hand with a one-handed weapon held in the other, while others show the player casting slower, heavier spells with both hands before pulling their sword and shield back out. There's plenty of magic to throw around, too. You can bash with dual-wielded axes, or a two-handed sword, or ranged weapons. The gameplay footage we've seen is very Elder Scrolls lots of bashing bandits and skeletons in first person.
