When you're in charge of both managing and supplying a sushi restaurant, as you are in Dave the Diver, you'll have a lot of spinning plates to balance. Half the time you'll be diving into the waters to collect ingredients and materials for your business and the other half will be spent making sure your customers are happy and satisfied. The last thing you want is to run out of a specific dish you know customers love, but if you overstock how much you take in for the night, you'll end up wasting valuable ingredients. This is where the Auto Supply feature comes in, although the game is reluctant to explain it to you. Instead, we will serve up a perfect explanation of what Auto Supply is and how to use it in Dave the Diver.

How to use Auto Supply

By taking advantage of Auto Supply, you can have any dish you select automatically restock its ingredients when needed directly from your inventory instead of just relying on how many of that dish you've prepped for that night. Here's how to turn it on.

Step 1: Once in the restaurant phase, open your menu.

Step 2: Select which dish you want to turn Auto Supply on for.

Step 3: From the list of options, choose Auto Supply just below Swap.

Step 4: You will need to confirm your choice twice before it becomes active.

Step 5: Repeat the process for each individual dish you want Auto Supply active on.

There's no downside or penalty to using Auto Supply and is simply a more efficient way to keep the meals coming without trying to predict how many you will need before the customers arrive. Using Auto Supply is the most efficient way to maximize how much gold you earn, while also minimizing how many ingredients you waste, so turn it on and feed those happy customers!

How to break down equipment in Avowed

Making sure your equipment is as powerful as possible is an obvious but essential tip and trick to remember while playing Avowed. Your skills will play a large part in combat, especially when you rebind them for easy access, but your armor and weapons will be the most important factors in how tough the game is to beat. Upgrading your gear is the best way to keep up with the difficulty, but it isn't long before you hit walls where you need much more materials than you have to get to the next tier. Breaking down extra weapons and armor you find will be the best way to get your hands on more of these precious materials, and you can do it right from the menu. Here's how.

Making proper use of all your best abilities in Avowed is the easiest of the tips and tricks you can take into the game. When you begin, you will have your healing and mana potions set on your quick select bar, followed by the first skill you unlock and first companion ability. That's great in the early game, but it isn't long before you unlock new skills that you want on that slot more than what is put there for you. You can always access all your abilities through the tactical menu, but that is a bit cumbersome. Instead, here's how you can remap your quick skills to whatever you want.

How long is Avowed?

When it was first revealed, Avowed drew a lot of comparisons to Skyrim. Both are fantasy RPGs playable in first or third-person and set in open worlds, so it made some sense to compare the two. However, Obsidian later clarified that Avowed was not an open world in the same sense as an Elder Scrolls, and was more hub-based like The Outer Worlds. This left fans wondering just how long of an RPG this would be. Even though the game will be available on Game Pass, it is important to know how long or short of a time investment is before deciding when you want to start it. Here's how long you can expect to spend exploring the Living Lands in Avowed.
How long is Avowed?

Even though the world in Avowed isn't anywhere close to as big as Skyrim, each zone is dense with activities, side quests, and secrets. Your playtime will heavily depend on how much optional content you decide to partake in. In our experience, doing most of the primary side content, our playthrough took around 35 hours. Had we focused only on the main story, we predict it could be finished in between 15 and 20 hours depending on the difficulty level and your individual skill. This is roughly the same as The Outer Worlds.
