Only 0.2% of Players Unlocked the Harsh Tyranny Ending in Avowed

In the vast universe of Avowed, where multiple endings await discovery, the Tyranny finale stands out as one of the most brutal and rarely achieved outcomes. Statistics reveal that only 0.2% of players have managed to unlock this chilling conclusion, which requires unwavering dedication to a path of destruction and betrayal.

To achieve the Tyranny ending, players must fully embrace the oppressive principles of the Steel Garrote order and its zealous Inquisitor. Every crucial decision must align with their harsh philosophy, leading to the destruction of friendships, alliances, and entire factions. As the story progresses, companions will turn against the protagonist, leaving them isolated and despised. Despite this isolation, the Inquisitor bestows the title of knight as a token of recognition—a reward that feels hollow without any meaningful relationships to share it with.

The YouTube channel Big Dan Gaming has recently released a walkthrough that guides players through this challenging path, helping them avoid early defeat and unlock the elusive "Tyranny" achievement. This involves consistently supporting Edairian or anti-Sapadal positions during critical story moments. Though few dare to tread this path, the 'Tyranny' ending underscores the significant impact of player choices in Avowed.

As Obsidian Entertainment hones its storytelling prowess, Avowed delivers a gameplay experience akin to Baldur's Gate 3, where quests evolve dynamically based on player actions, and NPCs remember even the smallest decisions. This meticulous attention to detail ensures a rich, responsive narrative that deeply rewards thoughtful engagement.
