I'll probably get it if I hear Obsidian took any creative risks, but so far I'm hearing that it's a mass appeal oversimplified ARPG with looter shooter vibes. Not really the kind of thing I crave from Obsidian.
I haven't seen much coverage on the game yet myself, but I did see the review SkillUp uploaded. Apparently, the writing is pretty bland and mid, like that of Veilguard.
Skillup gave good reviews to Diablo 4 ignoring its shortcomings completely. Not sure I can trust his reviews after that.
If you're on the fence about avowed, in the meantime I'd highly recommend Eternal Stands.
