Sevilin (Blademaster) (I experimented with Shima the Shadow walker a lot too, but found I preferred Sevilin as a character.) A nice addition though was the concept of the 'scarab' slot which gives additional stat/spell boosts to characters, making them interesting to find throughout the game. The character system in Avadon was overall a little less interesting for me, with seemingly less variation in build possibly due to the slightly more rigid structure of the skill trees. The lore is interesting as well - though I never recorded information/codex lore as much as I did in Avernum. The story was reasonably engaging and I appreciated the flavour text within each different location and the way each of your npcs would occasionally interject with thoughts or experiences of their own of a location.

There's almost a Neverwinter Nights II vibe at times, with each of the npcs having their own personal quest-lines which are optional to the main story. After a few missions, the structure of returning to each location in a cyclical fashion becomes apparent. Whereas Avernum: Escape from the Pit shows the influence of older classics like Ultima IV+V (the boat driven exploration especially) Avadon evokes more of the Baldur's Gate style of party-interaction and Icewind Dale's mission to mission (A to B to C) approach in the main quest. However, this does not detract by any means away from the immense fun I've had with this title.Īvadon is more linear in style and less open-world, but delivers a tighter narrative with more role-playing oriented choices available in dialogue and more fleshed out joinable npcs. My total playtime for Avadon was 79 Steam hours which was considerably shorter when compared with the 119 for Avernum.
