Captaincool Avowed Review

I enjoyed this a lot through the first few zones but it really does lose steam by final zone and its climax. There is some great writing in the side quests and with some of the characters, but the main quest is bogged down by some really over expository dialogue to remind to player what the plan/missions is. For example, a character will say some version of "So we are heading to XXXXX to meet YYYYY so that we can stop the ZZZZZZ" at least a few times a zone. The combat is snappy and weighty, I did a couple different builds in my playthrough, its very easy to switch. Exploration loses its luster when you realize all the chests just hold a couple upgrade materials and some random items.
