Spiders' GreedFall was a pleasant surprise for gamers in 2019. Hailed as a spiritual successor to earlier BioWare games like Dragon Age, it offered an impressive and fresh adventure in a well-realized historical/fantasy setting. GreedFall was somewhat smaller in scope (at least compared to a few other contemporaries) but still provided a dense and satisfying RPG experience. Obsidian Entertainment's forthcoming epic fantasy FPS RPG, Avowed, has been on many fans' radar since its announcement in 2020, as it marks a return to the studio's well-known and liked designs. With Avowed also being a slimmer but more focused experience, many other elements about them are tightly aligned, too.
