Dragon Age Dragon Age: The Veilguard Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Aphex81]

Looks like you have to be repulsive to get a job at BioWare. On that note there is no doubt in my mind that the characters will be made to not offend any of these aesthetically challanged goblins. Sera will look hot in comparison.

There's one Desire Demon in Inquisition but it uses the Fear, Rage, and Pride demon models beacuse Bioware is now embarrassed over those character designs.

They still existed in DA2 though, Xebenkeck was quite a fight.

Making a desire demon look like a common succubus is pretty lazy.

They look like future school shooters.

The duo Eric & Dylan looked like Chads.

They look like Dragon Age succubi, not common ones.

Meet the developers:





Which begs the question: Is there normal looking individuals in Canada?

Did they get rid of that one crazy? The 5 o'clock shadowed trans"woman" who said that Dragon Age is a political game all about gay people.

Transgenderism is a mental disorder.
Heard a mass shooting happened in Nashville.
You know, just kwan stuff...

Behold, Mark Darrah the "savior" of Dreadwolf saying that tactics and party composition isn't part of the core DNA of Dragon Age.

 

[Ryzer]

Core DNA of Dragon age is to ride the bull or let him rides you, in other words living the californian dream.

I bet transgender Qunari are the core DNA instead.

I mean, he's technically right, considering there is no core DNA of Dragon Age ever since Inquisiiton.

No guys this is gonna be great. Why are you so negative? BioWare are awesome! Pre-order now!

The reception to those comments wasnt good, a lot of the comments are agaisnt reducing the number of party members.

Bioware keeps chasing trends, this time souls like games, and alienating the few fans they have each time.

Yeah, Bioware keeps being pozzed and more concerned about trannies and faggots in their Dragon Age setting than actually creating quality RPGs.

 

[Nano]

Reducing the active party number will bother the storyfag fans too because it means less time spent with their digital friends. These design decisions are truly baffling, but I guess that's not a surprise when it comes to post-2000s Bioware.

 

[Roguey]

It makes sense to me, they're going full Mass Effect instead of sticking with the weird compromises II and Inquisition did that didn't really please anyone. Laidlaw's not around anymore to champion party-based combat.

Didn't think it'd take so long when I said that back in 2017 though.

 

[Aarwolf]

It's the same that happened to Final Fantasy XVI, no surprises here. I don't care about either anymore, but it's still sad to see it going that way.

Since DA2. I have zero expectations from BioWare and they still disappoint me.

 

[Sarathiour]

It's not even that grimdark or evil of a thing, more of a very pragmatic but voluntary choice. Like the Tranquils you meet say they feel like it gives them peace and it makes them practically invisible to demons, like the one in the Circle Tower who's been hanging around the upper floors where everybody else has been massacred, but he's fine.

I'm not talking about the inner logic and justification in the lore, I'm talking about it as concept storywise. I'm suspecting the way the process is having a bunch of concept that you found cool or intereesting, and then try to tie them neatly together, ie the lore.

 

[Ryzer]

I think that Canadian Cities turned to a point of no-turning back. It's over, sealed, done. Nothing good will ever come out of Canada, ever. Seems like they destroyed the Canadian people so hard, it's indescribable.

"Bioware" no longer exists.

Nobody who worked on the BGs is at the company anymore.
Nobody who worked on NWN, KotoR, Jade Empire, the original DA and ME games, is at the company anymore.

This is an empty shell bearing the skin of a company that used to make decent games. The people who made those decent games are gone, replaced by new kids who wouldn't be able to tell you what makes a good RPG if you forced them to at gunpoint.

Bioware is dead, and it's time people realized it. They'll never return to their old form, as the people who made those old games possible don't work there anymore.
Companies don't make games, the people who work at companies do.

 

[Sacibengala]

Why is this game even a thread in here, anyway? The only one that didn't suck bull was the first one, and it was released when, 15 years ago?

Quoted for posterity, JarlFrank admits he considers NWN a decent game.

I don't, I just had to include it in the list for timeline reasons

It's shit but for different reasons than modern Bioware games.

Too late,

NO REFUNDS!

Yo, what's wrong with NWN?
It's a good game.

You make it seem like anything good ever came out of Canada in the first place.
