These refugees are starving\u2014but they don&#8217;t care if I pick up all their remaining food right in front of them. This shopkeeper owns the most exclusive emporium in the city, but doesn&#8217;t lift a finger to stop me walking into the back and rifling through his stockroom. After a crucial and intense conversation with a mysterious oracle about the nature of my soul and the destiny ahead of me, I&#8217;m free to stride up the stairs to her bedroom, take all her jewelry, and read her diary.

These big budget adventures that otherwise expend huge effort and resources to create an immersive world and an engaging story undermine themselves with this one feature, and I can&#8217;t work out why.<\/p>\n<p>I understand that I control the buttons I press, but the balance of these games often hinges on the idea that you&#8217;ll play the relentless kleptomaniac. <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/avowed-upgade-weapons-armour-crafting-materials\/\" target=\"_blank\">Avowed&#8217;s gear upgrade system<\/a> has me endlessly scrabbling for materials, and there are often unique items to be found in other people&#8217;s possessions\u2014to ignore it all in favour of preserving my character&#8217;s dignity would just be handicapping my playthrough. The game directly incentivises you to break its own illusion. Sometimes important pieces of lore are even hidden in these stashes, tying your understanding of the plot to the same larceny the storytelling never acknowledges.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"e36061c5-9d89-44ea-b664-aee7305c35f5\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Avowed unique weapons\" data-dimension48=\"Avowed unique weapons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:804px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"U8eETtCoxpobF3g8GdwE3V\" name=\"avowed square\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/rpgs-like-avowed-need-to-stop-letting-me-steal-everything-that-isnt-nailed-down.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"804\" height=\"804\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/avowed-best-uniques-to-get-early\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"e36061c5-9d89-44ea-b664-aee7305c35f5\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Avowed unique weapons\" data-dimension48=\"Avowed unique weapons\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>Avowed unique weapons<\/strong><\/a>: Grab these early<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/avowed-totem-of-rightful-rulership-fragment-locations-dawnshore\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Totem of Rightful Rulership<\/strong><\/a>: Find all the pieces<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/avowed-intimidating-feline-codpiece-treasure-map-location\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Intimidating Feline Codpiece<\/strong><\/a>: Treasure map solution<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/avowed-kai-romance-companion-quest-battle-scars\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Kai romance<\/strong><\/a>: Soldier through together<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/avowed-ygwulf-choice-an-untimely-end-kill-spare\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Avowed Ygwulf<\/strong><\/a>: How to handle the assassin<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"wjtxWiiM8w2czbEr84aGyJ\" name=\"avowed tips stealing\" alt=\"Avowed tips - A lone grenade on a shop's shelf.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/rpgs-like-avowed-need-to-stop-letting-me-steal-everything-that-isnt-nailed-down-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Obsidian Entertainment\/Microsoft.)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Not all games have the scope for a full crime and punishment system\u2014I understand that too.

They have guards watching out for you, ready to throw you in jail or charge you a fine if they catch you, and in some you can even earn a lasting reputation for lawbreaking that follows you from town to town. But implementing something like that is a huge amount of work, and often RPGs simply put their focus elsewhere. I&#8217;m enjoying Avowed, but it&#8217;s an <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/obsidian-plans-to-make-rpgs-for-100-years-by-not-trying-to-grow-aggressively-expand-our-team-size-or-make-super-profitable-games\/\" target=\"_blank\">intentionally modest<\/a> game, and its world simply isn&#8217;t made to be reactive in that way\u2014that&#8217;s absolutely fine.<\/p>\n<p>But then why fill every home and shop with containers of items in the first place? If a theft system isn&#8217;t in the budget, just don&#8217;t put stuff I can grab all over the place\u2014surely it&#8217;s as easy as that. Is the fear that players will become bored in settlements if they aren&#8217;t constantly bombarded with loot? Or that a drip-feed of incentives is needed to keep players engaging with the environment? It doesn&#8217;t seem necessary, to me\u2014I like in RPGs when adventuring in urban spaces feels very different to exploring the wilderness, and sidequest rewards can surely make up for any shortfall in loot.<\/p>\n<p>Am I just overthinking it? Maybe. I&#8217;m sure there are lots of players out there who not only don&#8217;t care whether a game notices them clearing out every house in town, but have never even considered that it might be an issue. But I come to roleplaying games to play a role, and I love the immersion of losing myself in another world. Anything that regularly snaps me out of that risks pulling back the curtain on the entire game, reducing a kingdom in need of saving to just a checklist of things to click on until they either die or give me something. Please, RPG developers: if you&#8217;re going to let me snatch a man&#8217;s life savings just so I can buy a slightly nicer hat, at least give me a slap on the wrist for it.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/rpgs-like-avowed-need-to-stop-letting-me-steal-everything-that-isnt-nailed-down\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s not easy surviving in the Living Lands.
