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

This man will finally run the entire franchise into the ground. Huge incline.

Inquisition didn't do that already?

 

[cvv]

Yeah wtf this franchise hasn't been taken seriously since like 2011.

Leave the bubble. Normies loved Inquisition for the same reason they love shitty television shows on Netflix with 25+ episodes a season and multiple seasons. It's something to pass time. They don't care about quality. It's all about quantity and offline MMOs like Inquisition and Kingdoms of Amalur are incredibly cheap and mindless ways to pass time.

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."

Patrick Weekes identifies as "they" now, just FYI.

Looks like more Inquisition tbh, if it doesn't play like a singleplayer MMO this time it might be okay. I also like the de-powering angle, since they have never really delivered on their silly power fantasies anyway, although they came closer than usual with parts of Inquisition.

That close up camera in the gameplay design segments worries me the most

Seems clear to me that they are abandoning that weird combat system from DA2 & DAI and going full Dark Souls. I would bet on a party assist system like Mass Effect, instead of full party control.

If only, that's what ppl said last time when early Inquisition footage was shown. Bioware just didn't want to abandon the pretense of making a BG style RPG despite that the game would have been better for it. Just give me a fantasy themed Mass Effect you dweebs.

He is identified as a massive faggot.

 

[Turbo normie]

Inquistion wasn't only shit because of the dreadful solo mmo map design filled with fetch quests.
Most of the characters were poorly written.
I don't mind faggot dragons, lesbian halflings nor gender-queer spellcasters AS LONG AS THEIR FUCKING SEXUALITY ISN'T THE SOLE THING DEFINING THEM.

A well made male character may have a diamond buttplug, enjoying to gag on giant's dick, as long as you ignore it, what's the matter ?

Those blue haired developpers should really focus on their "epic world, epic journey, wow so cool magic xD". How many inches their creations can take in the ass should be the very last dialogue option if they can't help but self insert themselves. NOT THE VERY FIRST THING AFTER "HELLO, PLAYER"

 

[Technomancer]

Ayy, a qunari girl, fucking finally!

Fuck you Bioware if she is lesbian.

As much as I hate this shit franchise, honestly I hope this is a critical and commercial success so that way Bioware doesn't break up and these people don't infect the few remaining studios I actually like or split off a hundred different ways and create a hundred times the

Bioware is dead already.

There should be a place where we can put all decline devs and keep an eye on them. A place where all the decline is concentrated. Perhaps some sort of camp.

I’ve seen quite a few people turn on DAI after it came out.

In some remote, isolated location... Perhaps in Edmonton?

The video is too long. Can anyone point me to the actual footage?

That close up camera in the gameplay design segments worries me the most. Bioware always go on and on about family and emo shit, and their games reflect that and if you can't stand that shit why are you even in this thread. The visual design looks alright so far, the concept art is interesting. That close up third-person camera whacky-whacky looking shit though... hmm.

"Going on and on about family" and "have a fetish about homosexuality". Something about those two in the same set of "values" seems a bit off...

 

[NJClaw]

Please God, take BioWare with you and give us back the old Black Isle. Thanks.

 

[Silverfish]

God damn there is something about this game that attracts the most obnoxious types of faggots and deviants.

It's too bad Bioware pulled the plug on their message boards. They worked wonders keeping some of that stuff contained.

There will be gay dragons, right ?

The mid-game plot twist is that we are the gay dragon.

Good old times

 

[Robber Baron]

If they will give player the option to avoid woke routes and fix the MMO tier gameplay(no hopes here sadly) I will be very happy. DAI always gave you the option to slap shit and drop faggots if you wanted and I could easilly rolepay a normal character. Now MMO combat is probably staying and that's the thing I hated the most. Thankfully there's BG3 on the horizon, so Dragon Age does not hold the monopoly on AAA high fantasy anymore.

 

[Grunker]

Dragon Age 1 was cool

Dragon Age 2 was kindda shit except for the cool premise of one city and time jumps

Dragon Age 3 was utterly horrific, not even due to the drama, just the completely warped gameplay was enough to dump it quickly

 

[Infinitron]

Yes, as I recall there was actually rather little SJW hysteria surrounding Dragon Age Inquisition's release. There was some LOL RIDE THE BULL stuff but people moved on from that fairly quickly. It was 90% about the gameplay being repetitive and boring.

 

[Atlantico]

Inquisition didn't do that already?

It should have, and it almost did despite the GOTY awards, bizarrely good reviews and fairly brisk sales.

Some suits somewhere deep in the black heart of EA, made this call. DA4 was not going to be a thing before the release of the next gen consoles.

DAI always gave you the option to slap shit and drop faggots if you wanted and I could easilly rolepay a normal character.

That's damning with faint praise.

 

[Child of Malkav]

I really liked Origins's tactics system. So many options to set the behavior of your party members, not having to babysit them all the time. Then, in Inquisition they reduced them to like 3 or 4. After the marketing of "by PC players for PC players" and yet limited to 8 action hotbar (when DAO you had multiple bars of 10 or 20 actions and I downloaded a mod to add more), tactical camera barely controllable with mouse and keyboard, orders not being obeyed if given while paused etc.
DAO had no sequels

On the upside all those writers that worked on Inquisition have been let go ever since... only to be replaced by equally vacuous hacks.

fun times

any words on gameplay of this? They can hardly make it more console-action-RPG than inqui
