Exclusive: Avowed started as Obsidian's Skyrim, but evolved to focus on depth over breadth, 'where Obsidian really shines' (www.pcgamer.com)

Agreed, Outer Worlds got a lot of grief for its length but I kind of liked the “30 hours and done” experience I had with it. It was pretty polished and enjoyable. It probably has something to do with the fact that I can’t just game for 8-12 hours like I used to when I was younger and didn’t have stuff to do, but I suspect I’m not the only person in that boat that grew up on F3, FNV, Oblivion & Skyrim.

Yeah, also with Avowed they have the change to keep that 30ish hour experience while enhancing replayability compared to outer worlds. I would love to be able to start a character and now I can probably finish the playthrough in a week. My Skyrim characters can go on for months and halfway through I am wishing I could have a new character, but I also experience the sunken cost fallacy making me want to continue the save to the end.
