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

[Jimmious]

I don't care if they have faggots or not as long as the game is similar to DA:I. I have no interest in a single player game with MMO gameplay, fetch quests and "gather X of Y" bullshit everywhere regardless if it has gays or not.
IF they'd go all the way back to DA:O and revisit that kind of gameplay, I will bother to care about the rest

 

[Jarpie]

I would love to see a Vision Statement for the original Dragon Age. Knights of the Somewhat Oriental Fantasy. I think they planned mongols instead of zombieorkspawns.

Wasn't it originally suppose to be a lot like Conan the Barbarian? Low-magic fantasy.

 

[Cael]

Conan isn't exactly low magic. Every time he turned around, he runs into a mage. Just about every book has him fighting a bad magic user of some sort.

True. However, REH is low magic by definition and not by details. He inspired a setting where the hero has no access to magic and the best his enemies do most of the time is throw black lotus in your eyes.

With this sorry cuck in charge, I am looking forward to the disaster that the game will end up to be.

In that case you can already abandon all hope.

Solas isn't anything to get mad about.

It was never going to be low-magic ("enslave nations through necromancy") but it was less traditional, more sword and sorcery than the Tolkien/Martin/Sapkowski mash-up they went for.

Tell us more about OG Dragon Age Roguey. Did it have mongols? Or my memory is deceiving me?

I don't know much, and I don't remember anything like that. Ostagar was always intended to be a Helm's Deep-esque battle against not-orcs. The concept art for Sten certainly looks more barbian horde-ish than what he ended up being https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net...concept.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20090809033704

There was also supposed to be a barbarian human origin from the south but it was cut to control scope.

I don't know, man. I think there's definitely a chance for it to bomb, but it almost needs Andromeda levels of ridicule. If they do a boring Destiny clone with a neatly presented story, then it's probably gonna do well for them.

 

[Space Satan]

I want to make an allegory about nuBioWare ubercucks and Darkspawn corruption in their setting but it will give them some credit

 

[moon knight]

Posting a teaser for a game that is like four years away is also retarded. Totally something that BioWhore would do.

It just tell us that Inquisition sold like shit.

You don't put a franchise, whose later chapter won a GOTY, on pause for 8 years if it sold well.

Look at how Bethesda does releases. Slamdunking DA2 only damaged Bioware's reputation.

Implying BioWare is doing this on purpose and not because they scrapped years of the work they previously did for DA4.

But Bethesda is overall a small studio which is run on nepotism.

Bioware have different teams. The one who developed the Omega DLC went to produce ME Andromeda. The one which produced Mass Effect 3 went to do Anthem. What has the Dragon Age team done so far in 4 years?

Working on Anthem with DA on the backburner. All their games do share animators and programmers.

 

[Turbo normie]

Sucked some feminine penises to extract materials for their character developments.

 

[Atlantico]

Interesting, care to summarize why that is for someone that's only played the first 15 minutes of DA:O?

It's been a while, so apologies for my hazy recollection.

He subverts your expectations, by wiping out the game lore:

- Gods? Don't exist.
- Elves? Noble savages/uber-beings.
- Demons? Misunderstood innocents.
- Tevinter? Irrelevant, they're really just liars.
- Darkspawn? Just elven uber-magic side-effect.
- Everything you do? Irrelevant.


He's an ancient uberelf, who just woke up one day because reasons, it's very lazy. He's an archtype of an SJW Fedora soyboy, he literally destroyed his people because they were behaving in a "problematic way" and didn't respect his safe-space.

He acts all uppity when you deal with issues matter-of-factly instead of in a hope-y feel-y way and would deplatform you if he could. He's all about living in dreams and if he had any hair, it would be purple.

 

[Tom Selleck]

Why are people surprised about this 'new dude same as the old dude' regarding Dragon Age? Like, you got to ride the bull and hang out with that FTM dweeb in Inquisition. It's already been gay as hell my dudes for a long time.

 

[imweasel]

It seems I pushed the right button.

So Inquisition did well and you trolled him?

 

[rusty_shackleford]

lots of politics in DA
like qunari being identical to islam

DAI tanked, from what I was given to understand. Hence the angry defensive reply.

the only place I see DAI tanking is a few users on the codex claiming so. Gaider is responding based on politics and being trolled
