The Gameinformer image is doing my head in. The Asian with the gauntlet in centre top. Is that her left hand pulled across? It looks like the arm is just growing straight out of her sternum.

Dragon Age 3 had the same thing - if you start as an elf, you're a part of a specific dalish clan. It amounts to basically jack shit. If Cyberpunk couldn't pull this off, Bioware won't.

This is quite an achievement on Bioware's part.
I had absolutely zero expectations from the game and I was still disappointed.
Of course, there is always a small chance that the game itself will be good, but let's be honest, it is so small that it almost certainly won't happen.
DA:I was lucky that it came out before Witcher 3 so it could avoid comparisons and thanks to that the reception was much better.
The problem for Bioware is that BG3 is still relatively fresh and the new game will definitely be compared to it, especially since BG was a Bioware series.
This trailer should have been released a year ago, maybe the idiots would realize that this approach is pointless. It will be surprising if it doesn't end like other famous failures from last year.

Let me guess. The different factions will act as 'specialization' classes of previous DA games.

Funny that over half the factions are gobbly gook. Qunari as a 'faction' is basically giving the okay to be a nazi. And, the cows are jokes..Being a GW is silly. The other choices just wannabes.

wouldn't be surprised if ol' peg leg is in the game for "disabled representation"
maybe in her companion quest you get to upgrade her to a wheel chair or something

10 years for AI generated images, huh.
Meet the Avengers. Doesn't seem AI generated, just an artstyle that I really dislike in general, and especially for Dragon Age.

Also just noticed that 3 out of 7 characters have prosthetics - a leg, and arm and a horn.
No wheelchair character in the main crew, but I guess they are going hard for the inclusivity.
