In the vast world of Avowed, where multiple endings await discovery, the Tyranny ending stands out as exceptionally challenging and rarely achieved. Statistics show only 0.2% of players have unlocked this grim conclusion, a testament to its demanding path of devastation and betrayal.
Reaching the Tyranny ending requires unwavering commitment to the oppressive ideology of the Steel Garrote order and their ruthless Inquisitor. Every crucial decision must align with their brutal philosophy, leading to the destruction of friendships, alliances, and entire factions. Companions will turn against the player, leaving them isolated and despised. The Inquisitor's eventual knightly title becomes a hollow reward in the face of this profound loneliness.
YouTube channel Big Dan Gaming recently released a walkthrough demonstrating how to successfully navigate this perilous path and unlock the elusive "Tyranny" achievement. This involves consistently supporting Edairian or opposing Sapadal during key story moments. While few players choose this route, the Tyranny ending powerfully illustrates the significant consequences of player choices in Avowed.
Obsidian Entertainment's dedication to refined gameplay shines through in Avowed, creating an experience comparable to Baldur's Gate 3. Quests dynamically adapt to player actions, and NPCs remember even seemingly minor decisions. This meticulous attention to detail fosters a richly responsive narrative that rewards thoughtful engagement.
