Obsidian Entertainment's Avowed will take the studio's world of Eora from the Pillars of Eternity series while transforming the franchise's format into a first-person RPG. While fantasy fans were quick to draw comparisons between the upcoming game's trailer and The Elder Scrolls series, the Pillars of Eternity universe has some bizarre features that are sure to make it stand Even hostile interactions can present multiple non-combat roleplaying opportunities. A gang of bandits in Skyrim will ins...

There's more evidence that Avowed will be set during Woedica's reign as queen of the gods. Both Pillars of Eternity games, especially PoE 2: Deadfire , were set in fantasy worlds with architecture, clothing, and technology from around the 1500s to 1800s. This included pistols, cannons, and magical bombs. In Avowed 's trailer, the world's architecture and weaponry seems far more medieval, likely indicating that the upcoming RPG will be set hundreds of years before the PoE ga Avowed should also ad...

Though it may seem small, there is one key difference between the way players can interact with the world in The Outer Worlds when compared to games like Skyrim and Fallout 4 . The Outer Worlds allows players to interact with the world in two main ways. They can talk to NPCs using the game's dialogue system, or they can engage NPCs in com Unlike the top contenders for The Elder Scrolls 6 's setting , the Living Lands are practically a blank slate in terms of lore. In Pillars of Eternity, the reg...

Raven Rock isn’t just isolated. As a primarily Dark Elf settlement, the player is constantly reminded of their "Outlander" status even if they’re a Dunmer . Despite being an abandoned Imperial outpost, Raven Rock is undeniably Dark Elven. Its architecture, clothing, and the characters’ accents are all reminiscent of Morrowi In fact, those differences could be the source of many of the "petty wars" across the landmass, while allowing players to interact with cultures that feel as alien as Morrowi...

The second and final Outer Worlds DLC, Murder on Eridanos , is set to arrive sometime before the end of the current fiscal year. This means that the expansion should be in the hands of players before April 1, 2021. The story of the expansion revolves around a character known as Halcyon Helen, the star of an in-universe show called Terror on Monarch. Helen is looking to go on a final adventure and looks set to be a solid follow-up to the first expansion, Peril on Gor The cosmology of Avowed is ju...

Even hostile interactions can present multiple non-combat roleplaying opportunities. A gang of bandits in Skyrim will instantly try to kill the player regardless of whether they’re dressed like a travelling merchant or are standing head-to-toe in Daedric armor and carrying a bow made of dragon bone. In Avowed , players should have multiple options when dealing with both hostile and non-hostile encounters. They should be able to attempt to bribe their would-be attackers, or make other last-ditch ...

To make matters worse, the long wait for news about The Elder Scrolls 6 has had many fans deep-diving the lore in search of hints about the next game’s potential setting or story. Simply put, ten years after the immense mainstream success of Skyrim , Tamriel isn’t nearly as interesting or unknown for many players as it was in the franchise’s p One of the reasons Obsidian is moving its Pillars of Eternity setting to a first-person RPG format is financial. As well-received as the Pillars of Eterni...

Oaths are referenced twice, and the trailer ends with a reference to a crown. Crowns are one of Woedica's symbols, and unlike the other gods of Eora Woedica can be seen wearing a crown in all of her depictions. A crown symbol very similar to Woedica's can also be seen on the banner hanging from the castle in the trailer. While the narrator's identity is unclear, they appear to be describing a history where ruling families gained their power by making oaths to Woedica. When they broke those oaths...
