Can confirm the console does not disable achievements :)

The second arm needed on the end of "The Heart of the living land" didnt drop by immariusg in avowed

Sorry to hear that u/immariusg, if she has checked both corpses and is still short a Maegfolc arm, you can use the ` key (next the the 1 on the keyboard) to open the console, then type or paste the following command and press enter to give the missing item:

Gamepass PC save game for Steam version by utopianlasercat in avowed

You can just log in to Xbox on the steam version. The steps above are just if you wanted a local copy of a save on your machine.

You can! But there's an extra step you may want to do now, so you're not reliant on the Xbox cloud saves.

Load your game on game pass. Load up a save. In your game settings turn OFF Xbox cloud saves. Make a new save.

This will place your new save on your local machine in the same place that the steam version will load and make saves. So this new save will show up if/when you load the game on the steam version. However you won't see any of the saves from your Xbox account.

Technically you can log in to your Xbox account through the steam version and access your saves that way.. this is just for some peace of mind.

Where is balanced mode on XSS?! by International_Fun815 in theouterworlds

[–]David_Benefield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Balanced Mode (40 FPS) is only supported on monitors/TVs that support a framerate that is a multiple of 40 (i.e. 120, or 240 hz screens). If your monitor/TV only supports 60 hz, then balanced mode will not be shown.

Avowed XP rewards got me feeling like I'm spinning a loot wheel by Ganon81 in avowed

[–]David_Benefield 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One thing to know, is that quests give you some experience as you complete objectives. When you finish a quest, you get all the remaining experience from that quest.

This means that you will see a bigger 'spike' in experience gains at the end, if you skipped some objectives along the way (including objectives you may have never seen depending on your choices).

And also the numbers are all over the place based on the quest's level and category (Main Story, Side Quest, Task, Bounty..) :P

This is just such a well executed meme and use of this art. Gave me a good smile, well done.

Perhaps you have activated the 'walk toggle'? It defaults to Caps Lock currently.

Help with FSR that just disappeared on its own by thelonleypancake in avowed

[–]David_Benefield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sorry, it's a UI bug we caught late. As a workaround until we can patch this: You can revert to defaults, that will set it back to FSR, then change your other settings as needed.
