Why Playing a Godlike in Avowed Wouldn’t Have the Same ‘Oomph’ as Pillars of Eternity

Every now and again, a new enigma is born out of the regular fantasy races in Elves, Goblins, and Dwarfs. Whether it takes the form of closely related aesthetic variations or a completely different species from what gamers are used to, the creativity of game writers and developers shines through in such instances. The most notable examples in recent titles include the beastly Khajiit in Skyrim and Pillars of Eternity‘s iconic Godlike, which helped catapult the title to acclaim. However, with Avowed‘s recent trailer giving a glimpse of what to expect in the next installment, fans fear that the revered race might not have the same wow factor they did in Pillars of Eternity.
