Dragon Age Dragon Age: The Veilguard - coming October 31st

[NecroLord]

Is it out yet?
How much time we have left?

For one, Canadian wages instead of Polish ones.

The punk band Refused (Samurai in game) are Swedish wages.
The TV show is Japanese wages.
The global marketing team is American wages.
And while Cyberpunk probably was actively developed for 5 or more years, especially including mantenance, was Veilguard? We know the game was cancelled and rebooted at least twice. Most likely it was in so-so development, prototypes and development candidates being pushed, until the last 2-3 years where it went into active development, and got rebooted and renamed a year ago. And it has no music album, no TV show, no DLCs yet, no maintenance yet.

I bet Cyberpunk cost more money to get to market than Veilguard. And I bet it made 10x more money, at least, but this argument is mostly about budgets, not profits.

You forgot Mr. Reeves fees in the list.

I still wish Bowie lived enough to be in the game like they originally intended. He is the real Silverhand.

Keanu does a good job though

Damn, it's like 2012 all over again. Poor Bioware, I'm here for it.

But after the rumour Concord cost 400 million and GTA6 1,5 billion

Concord budget literally includes buying an actual building for the team to go to work in. GTA6's budget is mostly licensing music and car brands or w/e.
And, I'm sorry, but Veilguard is NOT the production that GTA6 is, neither in score, nor in amount of work, not in licenses, motion capture, number of actors, etc. Its just obviously much cheaper.

The reason these trans writers failed to write a decent fantasy story is their imagination is fully occupied with the personal fantasy world they already live in.

Fantasy written by people who fantasize about being swordsmen will obviously be different to fantasy written by people who fantasize about being women.

Sense I get is that the game, and its target audience, are people who fantasize about having friends.

They knew what they were doing bringing in a Sims director. The slow movement from CRPG to lifestyle simulator will be slow, but they'll get there. Just got to get rid of those icky, vestigial CRPG appendages that are still hanging around so people can plunge right into what they really want, which is less game, more magical friendship funtime.

You are correct about your assumption about the target audience, I just want to add they fantasize about friends that will agree with everything they say and help them stay in their safe space, protecting them from ignorant bigots and evil men that hates them for no reason.

To give an example, they made every Tevinter good character pajeets(which contradicts the previous lore) but the comically evil characters from Tevinter are actually white and even have blond hair(which is also contradictory).

You’re a degenerate yourself most likely. Stop posting pseudo intellectual drivel with no grasp of philosophy that asks no interesting questions. Youre basically wanking off in here and haven’t made even one semi interesting sentence. The world is a complex place. There are many different reasons for our problems and many actors operating on different principles for different purposes in an ever changing landscape. You can’t simplify things or look for easy answers, because there aren’t any and by doing so you’ve ended up in the cognitive bias trap or binary thinking. You oversimplified everything to fit your narrow view and think that *gasp* degeneracy is to blame for it all. That’s just straight up ignorant. What do you even mean by degeneracy? You brought up strict adherence to orthodoxy as a potential solution. So basically you want to go to a church and follow their instructions and this will somehow save us all from gays or some other thing. If you want to actually understand the world, or people for that matter, I’d stay far away from any church. Magical thinking will only make your irrational connections and cognitive biases worse. Learn to think critically as a starting point and starting questioning some of your assumptions as a step one to not being an idiot.

I think you wrote a lot about yourself and your obsessions here, nothing about what I wrote. That's probably why it's so inconsistent and uninteresting.

Good morning, fellow chuds.

Commander Chud, reporting for duty. What's daily quota for exploded tranny heads today?

TRANNY HUNTING PARTIES, ASSEMBLE!

The Reich's demands are increasing. 20 000 trannies must be transitioned into carpets, coats, furniture, and fertilizers daily. Bonus payment for every runaway shitskin that gets caught and recycled alongside the trannies.

Together, we will stop climate change and save Mother Earth.

Sad reminder that since GamerGate there are many people who consider the Action Girl trope to be SJW decline and not a stable of the fandom.

The thread title should mention how Veilguard is Bioware's return to the form.

Cognition node 8109 shares many of the opinions and processes of cognition nodes 31035 and 13109, but appears to be salty about it. Oh well, all in accordance with the grand vision of Kane.

I don't find their insanity and perversions amusing. I'd like for them to disappear.

Sad reminder that since GamerGate there are many people who consider the Action Girl trope to be SJW decline and not a stable of the fandom.

This trope doesn't exist anymore really. They took it, reduced her tits, bulked up her waist, widened her shoulders, gave her a manly voice, removed tit plates and chainmail bikin, gave her an ugly face and made her a lesbian.
It's not that people don't like the action girl trope, it's that the action girl trope in 2024 is very often used as a vessel for sjw decline.
