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

• Regret is a big theme in Veilguard

 

[Ibn Sina]

Basically.. all the neutral gray options/evil are removed from the game. Can't be bloodmage, can't be tevinter loyalist, can't be templar. The game forces your player into preset ideologies.

 

[Cat Headed Eagle]

No EA account is a plus, not gonna lie. Now add that to the previous games too.

 

[Heroic Liberator]

• Rook should stay away from Blood Magic
• No blood magic combat

So I'm guessing that you can become a blood mage for narrative purposes, but you can't use blood magic mechanically?

 

[Dishonoredbr]

• No blood magic combat
• Spectate your companions fighting and trying to revive you

 

[Wasteland]

• Regret is a big theme in Veilguard

If there's one narrative Bioware still knows how to write, it's buyer's remorse

 

[Heroic Liberator]

• Regret is a big theme in Veilguard

41%.

No fetch quests huh? Im calling bullshit. Although I suppose ther could be no quests at all the way they are going, just make it a rail shooter.

 

[Kem0sabe]

So they confirmed, in the latest Q&A, that you will only have 3 active abilities...

Fucking God of War has more abilities, but thats not the most ridiculous part, it's the fans online defending it as something that makes them be more creative with combat and allowing BioWare to have handcrafted encounters... The coping is just beyond anything I have seen before from a fanbase

I'm guessing they're going for something similar to ME2-3 with how they design it, but with larger zones.

 

[Lodis]

If this game was made by competent devs we could be a blood mage and finally genocide the elves like they deserve.

3 abilities for rook and 3 per companion

Just a reminder from Mass Effect Ability Wheel btw

• No EA App/Account.
• No online Forced.
• No battlePass.
• No Multiplayer.
• Unique Singleplayer Exerperience
• No Microtransactions

All positives, but also indicative that EA believes this will flop hard no matter what, so the budget was kept moderate.

 

[Child of Malkav]

• Regret is a big theme in Veilguard

Yeah. That it was made.

There are no fetch quests because it's mission-based, so fetch quests don't make sense.

What reddit cares about:

No money to even confirm photo mode lolololol.

 

[Baron Tahn]

Lol maybe rail shooter is aiming too high. Just make it a character creator with some dress ups, romances and a photo mode.

All that stuff was true about Immortals of Aveum too, and it had a huge budget.

 

[TheHeroOfTime]

Now imagine this but with the new qunari from the trailer

 

[Myobi]

Its odd, because the gameplay doesn't look... too bad, sure as fuck ain't Origins, sadly, but I guess I have Larian for that nowadays, but it looks a lot like Mass Effect, I can get behind that, as long as the fucking writing and characters are there.... and you know, considering ME:Andromeda....

 

[Spectral Pontifex]

Why is the egalitarian, anti-Tevinter faction named Shadow Dragons? The ancient Tevinter worshipped dragons as the old gods and sacrificed millions of slaves to them. This is the equivalent of an anti-nazi resistance group naming themselves "Shadow Hitlers".

The cope must flow.

 

[GrainWetski]

it begins

The monster on the left is hideous even for BioWare standards. What kind of demonic creature is he?

 

[Cohesion]

A large body of resarch proves diverse teams outperform homogenous teams

Just like in NASA.

Yeah they are well known fraudsters and scammers.
