Do we have to humanize and anthropomorphize everything? We have ship girls. Gun girls. All kinds of girls. Do we really need sentient video games as “waifu’s” and “husbando’s”? Also side note. Is animal crossing a guy? And does he know what he wants? I assume based on the pronoun of “it” that dragon age veilguard is probably nonbinary.
I think only Dragon Age Origins knew what it was.
I think DA2 knew what it wanted to be, EA just decided to not let Bioware have the time or manpower to do it.
I personally think that it still has the best overarching story, environ and atmosphere in the series so far, and (controversial opinion) I LIKED that I played as Hawke. The Warden and the Inquisitor are the typical “thrown into a world changing even they have tenuous connections to”, and feel a degree removed from anything but the main event sometimes.
But Hawke? They are in the thick of it. Does not matter what class Hawke is, my guy/girl is going through it at every (repeated dungeon) stage of the game. I honestly felt more for Hawke in my playthrough of DA2 than my personal avatars in Origin and Inquisition. Kirkwall sucks soooo bad, man.
The more reflection I give it the better DA2 is and the worse Inquisition is. DAO was a good turn based with pause of its era but it was 2 that was the best. My biggest problems with 2 are that it wasn’t finished (I want the Sera it was supposed to have not the one inquisition gave dammit) and Isabella’s lack of survivability/force mage just sucking. Meanwhile Inquisition fucking attempted to rehabilitate Cullen… and it had no Isabella or Merrill
You get it. I agree with all of your complaints (but another unpopular opinion, I didn’t mind Sera we got lol)
Inquisition is actually my least favourite in the series, and I hate the pivot to hyperfocus on the “super special elves” and getting the most out of the story ONLY if you play a specific type of elf. I’m also not absolutely gaga for Varric (I like him, I just don’t think he should be everywhere). I felt really fatigued by the end of the game tbh.
BG3 exec-bro played it well with the words.
truly knows what it wants to becould mean different things depends on how you spin it.It knows it wants to be an AAA game in 2024, and we all know what that means…
Are they fucking high?
It looks like just another AAA slob
No it doesn’t.
It’s worse. It looks like a mobile game with fanfiction quality writing.
All of the characters look like they came straight outta Shrek 2.
Am I the only person who saw that dragon fight trailer or something?
The build up promised a cinematic confrontation of soldiers being thrown around and powerful siege engines to the backdrop of a ruined tower in some rolling hillside. Then it cut to a huge, grey, flat nowhere location where the player and two uninteresting specks of companion characters repeatedly hit it with christmas tree lights until it had a stoke and died.
Maybe Dragon Age wants to be a game about shooting Christmas lights at
bulletChristmas light sponges?Tbh, I don’t mind not having flashy combat scenes if the actual RPG is well done.
But didn’t the woke ruined it by inserting politic (aka women, pronouns, non-whites, etc.) in it? /s
I get what you mean but this kind of stuff is just infantile:
I’ll check it out when it comes on gamepass
