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

In the sprawling world of Avowed, where multiple endings await, 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 unforgiving path of devastation and betrayal.

Reaching the Tyranny ending demands unwavering loyalty to the oppressive Steel Garrote order and their ruthless Inquisitor. Every crucial decision must align with their brutal ideology, leading to the destruction of friendships, alliances, and entire factions. Companions will turn against the player, leaving them isolated and ostracized. The Inquisitor's eventual bestowal of knighthood feels hollow amidst this profound loneliness.

Big Dan Gaming's recent YouTube walkthrough provides a guide to navigating this perilous path to the rare "Tyranny" achievement. Success hinges on consistently supporting Edairian or opposing Sapadal at key story junctures. While few players choose this route, the Tyranny ending powerfully illustrates the weight of player choices in Avowed.

Obsidian Entertainment's meticulous design in Avowed rivals that of Baldur's Gate 3, with quests dynamically adapting to player actions and NPCs remembering even minor decisions. This level of detail creates a richly responsive narrative that rewards careful consideration.
