That being said, I am excited for the series to expand beyond Thedas, and I think that would have been a good time to drop all of the previous choices .
I am having a good time playing DAV,
BUT where is the lore? It feels like a (stale) one off sequel to DAI.
Like if this is your first DA game, do you know what The Circle is? Or Tranquility? Or the disenfranchisement of Elves?
Game play: 9/10
Story: 6/10
I understand at some point it becomes unrealistic to continue importing choices made from nearly 20 years ago, but it would have been nice to have a hint of what your prior decisions were (aside from who you kissed).
I can't imagine someone whose first Dragon Age game is Veilguard like what do you mean you dont know what Circles of Magi are. what do you mean you don't know about allienages or the rite of tranquility??
I shared on IG my experiences of assault surrounding my race/gender (hate crimes BTW), and those events had scared me for so long of expressing myself. I cannot go another 8 years being scared.
While this is all very shitty, it is inspiring me to be more outwardly expressive of my gender identity.
I'm about to be aggressively non-binary. I am linking LGBT+ resources and pronoun education in my work email signature. I am done hiding.
