You get to pick a Faction at start of the game.

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.
What the fuck is a shadow dragon?

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.

So you can't be a Tevinter loyalist. Lame, but to be expected.

Tevinter is probably the last cool thing left from Origins.
I wonder if there will be another Dragon Age, it won't be from Bioware, what kind of villain they will find.

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.

Oh, so now the Qunari invasion(s) is just an unsanctioned attack by extremist renegades and not approved of by their free loving, trans accepting and peaceful homeland.

Legit Marvel style crap.
All of her body parts are facing different directions. 
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.

Morbidly curious to see the gameplay footage that'll drop in a day or so.
@shinobi602 on Twitter has inside info, says Bioware "cooked a fine ass meal".
Full gameplay video coming tomorrow, June 11 at 8AM PT/11AM ET, as per him again.

The crew chilling at their local hipster cafe. How adorable.
We're about a year from a black female wheelchaired superhero.
Years ago this was thrown around as the most absurd extreme case of where wokeness could go. And we're almost there already.
Is that a blelf? Anyway, if that's the party, then I am 100% guaranteed to never play this game, ever.
