casters are ghey and wear dresses. if i wanted to play as woman i would chose chainmail bikini babe or tight leather-clad rogue.
Trope and nothing else. Propaganda. Mages can alter reality and make warriors or clerics kill themselves. They are power incarnate.
Forget mages being incarnations of power, forget enslaving kingdoms with necromancy—the new thing is gendermancy. Dragon Age will be a political roleplaying game where you assume any shape you want and indulge in a lot of sexual activity with well-rendered 3D models!

Who am I kiddin...It will be chaste and puritanical, an A button smasher while exploring a dull and vapid Ubisoft-like open world...

I thought "there's no way this is Dragon Age, it must be some kind of 5v5 hero shooter or something"

Leave it to Bioware to go beyond your worst expectations.

Given that they've built up the tearing down of the Veil as such a big deal I really thought they might at least try to make the trailer somewhat serious, but apparently not, it'll just be quips all the way down.

That one commenter nailed it though. They went from dark and edgy fantasy to being wannabe MCU.

They better hope it appeals to kids and that they didn't dial up the sex scenes so their parents won't stop them from getting it. Either that or that it appeals to women and alphabets that actually buy games.

This is everything I wanted. I started today being a bit bummed out but now I'm in a great mood.

Thanks for the early Christmas gift NuBioWare!
