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

[Pink Eye]

Community managers poorly disguised as fans even did giveaways on multiple places with 8-10 copies

They're still doing "giveaways" on steam forum for the game. Though one of them slipped up and revealed they're a game journie too.

 

[Necrensha]

Big head mode activated by default, now that's a new one.

 

[Camel]

Deadname Dreadwolf is going to be the next culture war battle.

 

[Hedasd]

Nothing to see here with plastic looking characters and their huge heads guys, just focus on the pretty FIFA hair.

 

[Caim]

Buncha melonheads.

 

[motherfucker]

Who would fuck his ass? Out of spite. I know I would.

faggot

 

[damager]

Pretty funny how black characters look like out a 90's morning cartoon with the shader on.

Dragon Age looks better, plays better than ever in The Veilguard

https://venturebeat.com/games/dragon-age-looks-better-plays-better-than-ever-in-the-veilguard/

Before I get to anything else in the game, I have to shout out Veilguard’s character creator. Whatever character you’ve ever wanted to make in the Dragon Age setting, you can make them here. You’ve got gorgeous hair options, asymmetry, makeup options that for once don’t feel gaudy and ridiculous. I don’t say this lightly: Veilguard has a better character creator than Baldur’s Gate 3.

Tbh BG3 character creation is pretty bad if you don't plan to make a female elf,tielfing, human,half elf or drow character. The rest of looks horrible with extremly limited options.

Try to play a Half Orc in BG3. So Veilguard being better is not a high bar.

 

[damager]

As long as woman have any kind of ass in BG3 it already won, sorry

Some guy on Reddit showed just how ridiculous Bioware made the characters in Veilguard look by editing their proportions to normal for the after part:

I had to triple check to make sure it's not a troll.
I knew something was not right, especially when looking at the female elven gigagook, but I didn't realize it's this bad.

Everyone is a funko pop now.

So, you are saying that the game devs deliberately made things out of proportion in order to uglify the characters... Why? Is it some sort of troll aim at the players? Some sort of "fuck you" aimed at the game company? What the hell???

Because the woke celebrates ugliness. Just like their zombie pets, sorry, I meant "people".

I imagine this is what they think "stylized" means.

Probably because of some stylistic choice.

Or because the head modeler is a protected class and pointing out that the characters are all melonheads will get you fired.

 

[Cael]

In my field, people who deliberately sabotage the company like that have literally gotten their ass fired instantly. A lesser sabotage would take a little longer, but everyone knows they are gone.

 

[kapisi]

It's not just the heads, their bodies have wacky proportions too, like their legs are too short. Same thing happened in Andromeda, I dunno why they haven't fixed it.

 

[Pink Eye]

Same thing happened in Andromeda

It still gets me every time how they got a beautiful woman to model as female Ryder and then they uglified her in-game.

Pretty hot MC, not gonna lie, big head or not

Pretty hot MC, not gonna lie, big head or not

Looks better than Jaheira.
Now THAT'S an accomplishment...

Why do you know so much about the going-ons in the fag community?

Cos I'm not a fag hater and I talk to them, even if I hate their lifestyle.
No way you didn't meet a single fag at school or at work that won't shut up.

 

[babayaga]

That's wild. I don't understand how someone can work on a franchise like Dragon Age and not even be bothered to at least play the first game or even Baldur's Gate to get an idea of what this type of game is like. These people get paid to work on these projects but can't be arsed to even sit down, spend a weekend to play the first game, write notes, and figure out how the next game should play out. Dragon Age: Origins isn't even that long either. Hell, if they don't like Origins they can play the superior Baldur's Gate 1 instead, which would take an evening to finish.

I don't know, I find it sad how you got indie developers out there who spend years of their life playing these games, researching them, critiquing the mechanics, and working hard to create the ideal RPG for enthusiasts only to get 1/10 of the success. Meanwhile crap like Dragon Ass Vile Guard has more resources, more people, more talent, and those assholes can't even be bothered to least research the franchise they're working on.

I said this before and I will say it again.
Game deving has become just another blue collar job.
The people that want to work in these companies A) do it for money B) are a DEI hire.
They literally don't give a shit about games and don't play them.
Talented straight white guys that genuinely care won't get hired anymore. Only in indies but those require a lot of previous experience so you just have to game dev on your own if you want to make it.

Finally, the game bioware fans deserve.

 

[Lodis]

I don't think this slider actually does anything.
