The story was unbelievably good, yes. But it's not the lack of gameplay that I felt was an issue, but rather that what gameplay was there didn't feel substantial enough, and if anything, actively got in the way of the story (along with some repetitiveness). Again, if this was more of a straight visual novel, I would have enjoyed it a lot more. If you & a lot of others like it, more power to you, I can see why others would enjoy it. But sorry, it just didn't do a whole lot for me.

Thank you, but it is not "the truth," it's just my opinion. I have seen other, regular players enjoy the game and feel that it is perfectly fine in spite of what they feel are flaws, and I do not judge them. And I've seen other players more critical of the game. It's not hard to understand both sides here, just as long as everyone can communicate their feelings well enough.
What Upcoming Game With a New IP Are You Most Excited For?
Great-looking games, but while I hate to be the "ACK-shually" guy, I should mention that Avowed is part of the Pillars of Eternity universe (though that's something that I didn't even realize for quite a while as well, so I can't blame you).
