This trailer looks worse than my most pessimistic expectations. The reaction online on the Xbox sub has been universally bad.

It's hilarious really, years of development hell only to show trannysexual Fortnite rpg.

Comment from YouTube video:

Solas was right, it's too painful to walk in a world like this.
No wonder he wants to destroy the world.
Total Thedas Death.

Maybe Bioware changed the name when they discovered how based Solas was?

This trailer's actually kind of brilliant if there's a path to support baldy and just murder hobo your way towards the destruction of the world.

Of course not. The last Bioware game with murderhobo mode was the second Baldur's Gate.

I have the most amazing hate boner right now.
I'm practically turgid.

Look, the cope squad has started to normalize opinions lol. Fucking reddit.

WTF!!!!!???
That was one shit game reveal!
Seriously cartoon graphics??!?!!
I mean no one expected something good but that's epic bad!
Actually, so... which reveal was more cringe and horrible: this or Mythforce?
Mythforce at least tried to mimic older cartoon style.
Fans of the Dragon Age setting (those that still exists ;)) certainly expected a visual style fitting the gritty fantasy style of previous games NOT THIS!

You know, I expected something of epic proportions. Shit, but big. And it's all so...small. In addition, the trailer itself seems amateurish. The animations make it seem like it's just a test and not something you're bringing to a trade show. And the characters themselves are something from the trailer of "le veterani Bioware" and not a proper studio with billions of dollars in financial resources.

iI's just a brown fart.
I wasn't. Nu-Bioware is analogous to the NASA that forgot how to put a man on the moon.
This game has probably been reworked more times than Copper Dreams, I'm impressed that it wasn't vaporware and I can't imagine the bugs.

Do you have a link for that?

Why can't people just make decent games?
Just search the subreddit by new, there's so much cope there's no point in linking it.

Look at this shit. They're already trying to start a low-sodium sub (re: forced positivity shill sub).

This series completely abandoned its roots.

This is a DA:O trailer:


Jokes aside, I am actually totally baffled that they reveal their new game with a trailer that's intentionally funny. Even comedy-heavy games like WoW go for the epic, dramatic route in reveal trailers and the light-hearted stuff is sth. that they show later. Because epic stuff simply gets more attention.

I can't believe how a game, produced by a 100+ people development team, supported by Electronic Arts and their market analysis department, is introduced with something like this. What are these people thinking? Why do they have marketing people if that's the result. Every retard should be able to anticipate the hate that this trailer will get.

It's because almost everyone still working at Bioware is a diversity hire with no significant prior experience in anything.

The project lead is a self described "queergendermancer" who I think has literally never worked on a single game project before in his life.
