Avellone is hit or miss. He has done some incredible world building such as Tyranny and Planescape Torment. Having him come in and just write a character is a misuse of his talent.

Lately he hasn't worked on anything that I have played except for DOS2.

I feel like Tyranny would have been so amazing with a proper budget. And proper marketing. Everybody thought the game forced you to be evil when really you are in a world where evil already won and that’s just a cool narrative starting point.
