Dragon Age Dragon Age: The Veilguard Thread

[Taxnomore]

Do we have actual evidence of Bioware Edmonton closing besides the rumour and the game director leaving (which is a thing that can ahppen anyways) ?

 

[Zed Duke of Banville]

The real Veilguard was the entertainment delivered by this thread along the way.

You mean the 10% if it that aren't autistic sperging, anti-Codex contrarianism or outright shilling?
Well, I'm sure all that entertained your kind.

Anyone knows where the head troon landed?

 

[Softgels]

Maybe they'll reunite at CDPR Boston

 

[Tyrr]

I hear he will working on a "space RPG" next. Whatever that means.

 

[Harthwain]

Wasn't Larian planning on making sci-fi RPG? Could be Starfield (some post-release support work), too.

 

[Butter]

If the rope is the proper length, he won't land.

 

[scytheavatar]

Off to ruin another franchise? Let's see, who needs a kick in the dick? Oh I know, I wonder if CDPR is hiring.

He said CRPG so no CDPR.
Probably Larian. They seem to have.....common grounds here and there.

But Larian has made it clear that they want to hire people who can add to the studio and teach them how to do things better than they already are doing. Not sure many ex-Bioware people will count as such talent.

[Konjad]

To be honest, in retrospect I think I was too critical for The Veilguard. In the end it deserves some praise if it leads to closure of Bioware.

 

[Child of Malkav]

Well, he can teach them how to add top surgery scars and bharvs. Clearly Laurian would benefit greatly from such arcane knowledge.

I wonder if it could it be Exodus? That's a space RPG project made by ex-Bioware staff so it would be a logical career move if Busch gotten booted from Bioware.

 

[Lagole Gon]

Say what you will about Veilguard, but it seems like somebody in Bioware had the main storyline doodled on a napkin somewhere. Probably next to hormone pills and dillatining equipment, but still.

The same can't be said about Larian (except maybe for the hormones and dillatining part).

 

[Semiurge]

How strong one should hate himself to actually play this?

Let me put it this way - you should if you're planning to kill yourself but you still need a bit of a nudge.

If i planned to kill myself i would play something i enjoy instead. One last time

Maybe.

I checked out the site, it fits all the usual subversion. Every character is various degrees of ethnic, the companion described as the 'muscle' is a woman (yuck) and the promotional footage and screenshots are full of angry women scowling and trying to look intimidating.

Easy pass.

It'll probably be popular with the Monster Hunter Wilds crowd, though. Both games look set to be plagued by the same issues after all.

They can always form a new studio to make their own woke half assed Dragon Age clone and go bankrupt when it fails. Because they are retards and will never learn.

I remember some broken, godawful Dragon Age clone with hulking they\them granny warrior. I think some bioware devs were involved. What was the name of that piece of shit? It was set up for failure.

They are already doing this tho

Gross.

Fargus, did you mean this one?

 

[Semiurge]

The official ad for Exodus is still very based. Might be deliberate that they went with a white guy as the default face, with a step backwards they can gain some goodwill.

lol yes, this is the one.

Devs used to post a lot of updates on steam about companions and it was top tier cringe and very funny.

But they\them grandma takes the cake.

Brigg
Companion - Story & background

Brigg, who is about to turn 50, is your oldest non-immortal party member in the game. They had been a commander in King Ith’s army until they retired a few years ago in order to allow their young protegeé, Tiana, to take her place. Brigg supports Tiana completely.

Despite their age and numerous battles, Brigg has remained feminine in a very girlish, innocent way. They’re a tomboy for sure- all swords, punches, and bloodshed… but they’ll return from a hard day of brutal training with a sunny disposition, and then make flower crowns for the younger warriors to help them relax. Brigg was born in a tiny village far outside of Brigantia, but ran away to join the military when they were a teenager. So, they’ve been fighting longer than many of your party members have been alive. They’re also incredibly optimistic, and will try to do the right thing whenever possible.

Brigg’s introversion can sometimes get in their way, as people don’t expect it from such a physically tough, commanding person- but they’re deeply private about their true thoughts and feelings. Brigg rarely engages in conversations that go below surface level.

Brigg is more likely to read a book or meditate in a calm grove than to try and date anyone. Because they tend to keep their personal life separate, no one knows if they have ever had lovers, and they’re not particularly flirtatious either. Adventure and the autonomy needed to have adventures are of utmost importance to Brigg. If you’re going to romance them, they need to know that you will always keep striving to be your best self, to live your best life. If Brigg thinks that you want either of you to settle, and stop learning and growing… they’ll completely lose interest.

"Despite being 50 years old, she remained feminine in a very girlish, innocent way."

That's it, the core of the problem. It's every ugly middle-aged dry egg menopausal wrinkled hag's first and only fantasy. And that's why when there are women involved in video game production, no pretty female characters will ever be allowed. You WILL believe that 50 year old women are "feminine in a very girlish and innocent way".

Non-binary steroid granny... this was Traash before Traash. This is what happens when mentally ill write the story.


They also had this creature... whatever this is.

As a romance option, she’s awkwardly charming, and more interested in a deep emotional and intellectual connection than a sexual one. Delba loves to cuddle, and will happily lie with you under the stars telling funny stories all night long.

Would?



And some crazy bitch straight from 14 year old's tumblr fanfiction:

Mal is a mid thirties, tough-as-nails butch who loves violence for the sake of violence. Luckily, she has channeled this love into a useful career killing dangerous monsters. She doesn’t talk much, would rather be caught dead than in a dress, and enjoys smelling a little bit like death to keep people from talking to her. If you don’t seem dangerous or interesting, she won’t give you the time of day. The only time she’s seen smiling is when she’s killing something… or licking her knife after doing so.

Mal has a unique special ability. She lost an eye in a fight with a monster a number of years ago, and her husband at the time, a Mourian man, saved her life by pouring gold in her empty eye socket. That gold was imbued with magick. Now, if she puts the eye of a deceased creature or person in that eye socket, she can see how that individual died. Well, mostly. She sees their doom through not just their eyes, but their lens- their feelings at their time of death distort the vision. For example, for people who were murdered, the person or creature who murdered them may appear much more horrifying or monstrous than they are in real life.

If you manage to befriend Mal, she is absolutely ride-or-die. She will defend you and stay by your side no matter what. Mal prefers to keep things casual, but if you romance her, she may prove to be nearly insatiable sexually, and might potentially be down for some rather dangerous kink play.

Oh my God. I knew this thing failed hard for being dog shit. I didn't know anything about the characters.

How the hell is this thing a romance option? You can't be serious.
Well either of them for that matter.
