Obsidian seems scared people will compare Avowed to Skyrim, but it shouldn't be—the similarities are obvious, but the differences make it compelling (www.pcgamer.com)

If they made the same exact game as Skyrim, but in a modern engine that wasn't built on a sandy foundation, it would already be a better game.

It shouldn't be hard to replicate the good while removing the bad. And yet I've yet to see it actually happen.
