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

[Konjad]

Damn, Warcraft 2 hasn't aged a day.

You just made me realize how much I'd have loved WC2 1:1 remake but with updated graphics and multiplayer options (and alive player base)

Gay blue non-tiefling needed a badass oneliner so they made her say "It's only me and you now" to the dragon, with a full party, two balistas and a bunch of soldiers behind her. Cringe!

This game looks like a budget trash.

Because it is.
Can't believe we have to endure one more month of this shit.

It's kinda funny that everybody tries harder and harder to corner the action market. Not only because it's crowded as fuck as is -- for the general public, even the likes of Red Dead Redemption, Horizon or Assassin's Creed are a viable substitute for Veilguard, as Ubisoft et all have incorporated RPG elements into their games since forever.

But also because it's only that Belgian running around in armor who seems to have realized: "Wait a minute! Gazillions are playing turn-based games on their mobiles! Nobody making them like they used to doesn't make an ounce of sense!" And so it doesn't. Whilst Bioware should ship this with a heavy epilepsy warning (so much for inclusion) -- in BG3 you can take a sip of coke, put the kid into the oven, bring the pizza to bed, and then slooowly start thinking about whether to critical hit that goblin or that ogre first. It doesn't get more accessible than this.

Yeah, I get it. They all want that Call Of Duty audience (that doesn't give four flying fucks). But give that guy another ten years, and he's gonna have them all bought out.

Here's the video for those without an account btw, the original can only be viewed embedded



This looks so soulless, dated and generally embarrassingly bad. The animations, the music, the combat, everything except the silky hair.

The official DA channel's video is full of "community managers", and youtube is hiding the dislikes again.

At around 2:24, the dragon appears to freeze mid-air for no reason (the player doesn't bring up and wheel or cast any spells). What the fuck is that all about? It's like it's trying to replicate SNES slow-processor slowdown 30 years later lol.

Or am I missing something? Barely slept last night, so I'm not the sharpest today.

If they want that CoD money they should make a covershooter with modern weapons in the Middle East. What this retarded way of thinking behind this?

You give up your growing target audience to tab into some non existent market. Why should some dude bro play a lesbian fantasy action game?

Even if someone at bioware realised that there was no time to change the combat system they've probably worked on for like 4 years at this point within a year.
Also never underestimate the ability of normies to sperg out about not getting action combat. See reactions to greedfall 2.

 

[Basshead]

why are you even engaging with those pricks in the first place?

It's just, well, I've never seen a group of people so stupid, so offensively retarded, so out of touch; it sparked something inside, I just had to engage because I couldn't tell if they're actually, unironically, sincere in their position.

I haven't interacted with that group of idiots after my ban though.

You’re on the codex…..yet you’ve never seen a group of people so stupid, so out of touch that you had to engage to see if they were sincere. Yet you’re a member of the codex. Is this your first day or something?

Monty Python skits have better production values than that.

That's kind of the point though, isn't it? These companies are always chasing trends. Never setting their own.

We must follow Gears Of War before venturing forth (ME).
We must follow Call Of Duty before venturing forth (DA2/ME2).
We must follow Skyrim before venturing forth (DAI).
We must follow God Of War before venturing forth (Veilguard).

I reckon running stairs down full speed while in full plate would be really hard, so the first guy is kinda realistic stumbler. The rest of the guys not touching the stairs less so, maybe they know how to micro-levitate

Unfortunately I predict it won't fail and will be a mild success. It looks like every console slop ever made reskinned. The setting became generic as fuck, a bit light hearted even, the characters look and behave like young adult novel heroes. The combat looks flashy and compentent like every other console action RPG even if it's probably brainless. Looks save as fuck, apart the DEI shit.

Monkey brain see flashy, monkey brain happy.

If I didn't know what Dragon Age is I couldn't tell apart if it's Avowed, Pathfinder or Baldur's Gate. It all looks the same.
