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

[Artyoan]

So they have concept art and a host of very generic statements that could be applied to almost any rpg with a blue haired lead writer.

My monitor drips with soy

 

[jackofshadows]

They just kinda telling you: "THIS GAME IS NOT FOR YOU, MOVE ALONG!"

Spoiler

 

[OctavianRomulus]

I am ashamed to have ever been a fan of this series and defending Inquisition. I am getting bad vibes from this.

 

[thesecret1]

lmao even the fatbois have danger hair

I wonder what being a rebel is like in such places.
"Whoa, look at that punk. A collared shirt, a pressed suit, non-dyed hair... I'd never dare dress like that, has he no shame?"
"He must be swimming in pussy, going for all them wild stay at home, christian girls. I bet he even goes to church to pray with them, the degenerate fiend."
"I hate the bastard, but you gotta give it to him, he's got some balls. Imagine, he said "Good morning, officer" in public! People were so shocked they didn't even call him a racist."

Ahh why did you click on the play button? It is a nu dragon fars video,ofcourse it will be a soy coated shit.

 

[Serious_Business]

"FAMILY"
Fuck off already.
Where is the fckn Dark Gritty fantasy? I don't want your 1000 generic garbage stories about lovers, relationship and garbage. Where is mah! Darkness!!!

Now that Gamers are Dads and Teddy Bears you have to Adapt to the Market, baybay

I still remember in BG2 you could pop a baby in the inventory, that shit was disturbing when I was 14. I don't know man, I wasn't ready

I still am not and never will be, that shit takes space for my phallic swords which is entirely inappropriate

So that blue haired dude is Weekes, huh. Explains a lot.

Whole IP has basically become a car crash in motion that you can't look away from. Much like with what's happened with Star Wars, it's been a real eye opener in terms of the dangers of giving people that weren't guiding the original entries of franchises carte blanche over your IP. With most of the guys that crafted the original and shaped it into something promising having moved on, those that are left pretty much cashing pay cheques, there's not much to be excited for outside the steady decline of something that was originally promising.

Same thing is about to happen with Larian, BG3 will overreach, graphically it will step up to a more cinematic focus, you will attract this type of audience to your game and it will begin an unfortunate death spiral.

The whole failure of multi-part stories like this one have really made me appreciate once-and-done approaches, instead of some dipshit deciding 10 years later that new players and trannies are more important than finishing the story properly and getting to fuck up the character arcs made by their betters through unhappy chance.

A self hating raging homosexual for sure.

 

[InD_ImaginE]

Eh being edgy muh grimdark games doesn't necessarily mean the game will be better writing-wise, not that nuBioware set a high bar of expectation of course. Dark Fantasy is overused in fiction the past few years because everybody wants to have shit "mature" fantasy so good riddance.

This is probably nu Bioware last chance at the eyes of EA, right? After the shitstrom that is Anthem (which still kinda dead today, whereas FO76 bounced back decently even though their launch is quire close IIRC). If this game bombed Bioware is probably dead. I guess they still have SWTOR, but not sure how much money it is making as the content for SWTOR is dropping at speed of a nail.

He goes by "they/them" now so... yeah, pretty much.

Oh rly? Where's this avalanche of mature dark fantasy RPGs? All I'm seeing are retarded juvenile jRPGs and woke Western garbage.

 

[NJClaw]

Lol at the guy who says with a straight face that "BioWare improved a lot over the years".

Yeah champ, it sure did.

Hates sexy women as well.

 

[Ghulgothas]

So many feelies, so little substance.

I like to think that just out of shot, behind these impassioned fools giving their shallow little spiels on creativity and empowerment are all the cowed developer slaves who've been chained to their desks in endless crunch since Inquisition.

 

[Morgoth]

That is Patrick Weekes? I thought the guy left disgruntled after DA2.

Guess Bioware is like the Codex, after all.

Very promising concept art though.

Well he did write some of the better wifus in ME2,like the dlc jap chick and jack. Tho they are more of a self inserts.

 

[Zeriel]

So he wrote the ugly chicks? Really makes you think.

[The Wall]

Looks like isekai. Also, shitty one

 

[cvv]

With all those producers and associate producers and game directors and creative directors and lead writers and god knows what else....is this gonna be another Anthem-like clusterfuck where they spend the first three years arguing over what kind of game it was even supposed to be?

 

[Morgoth]

BUT WILL IT BE BETTER THAN BG3???

 

[ADL]

How much resources were spent on transporting a camera crew to follow game developers walking around the wilderness for a flashy "inside look at the development" of a fucking video game?

Goddamn it. Fuck modern AAA Western game development so much. Especially knowing customers will pay all related expenses for their "inspirational" company trip or whatever the fuck this is.

BUT WILL IT BE BETTER THAN BG3???

Baldur's Gate 3 will be the greatest RPG since Ultima VII so I'm guessing not a chance. Stay mad RWTP nerds.

 

[pomenitul]

Even 9th Generation, Irreversible Decline-era Bioware is more in tune with the spirit of BG than Larian.

 

[The Wall]

At moments concept art looked more Destiny 2 than Dragon Age. Firearms confirmed?

I will dig comfy grave for you Bioware, just die
