I would rather it was late and done, than on time and buggy and unfinished.

Lol doesn't seem to make much of a difference these days. Games get delayed and still release broken.
Hopefully, the delay is to improve the existing experience. Too many times it has been because the original vision was scrapped after a decade of work and they restart development with a different direction in mind, culminating in a mediocre game.
To this day I am salty about the third game lagging in QTEs.
Womp womp.
As a sidenote, I'm very impressed by how much Avowed is reminding me of some of my favourite memories playing Fable I and II back in the day. It feels like the same sort of action RPG, with the blending of swords, bows/guns, and magic. Certainly an unexpected treat, given the more obvious Skyrim comparisons that game has been getting.
How is Avowed? Is it good? I loved the Fable games.
I'm in love with it, it feels like it was made just for me. Like a combo of Skyrim and Fable II. Not everyone feels the same though.
That actually does sound fun!
So now it will be late and unfinished
Surprising nobody.
Expected this when Fable was absent from their developer direct last month.
Not happy, but that's gamedev these days.
Probably to focus on Forza Horizon 6?
