Obsidian was originally making Avowed as a co-op game until a change during development saw the studio "refocus".
As reported by Eurogamer, the developer changed tack during the game's development as they were "too focused on co-op", according to studio head Feargus Urquhart. Known for quality single-player games, the idea that Avowed was originally penned, and being made, as a co-op game is quite the eyebrow-raiser.
