I don't know if this is a hot take, but I'm kind of tired of all the celebrity faces in games over taking the spotlight of voice/game actors. Some are fine, but I feel like so many games have some big celebrity reveal and I just do not care
In the bustling ports of Docktown, nestled within Minrathous, you'll find two factions fighting for control:
The Venatori, a cult of blood mages, and the Shadow Dragons, a resistance group that fights against the city's corrupt rulers. #DragonAge#Veilguard
No matter what it looked like, I was always in day one on Dragon Age: Veilguard. It's just one of those series for me. Dragon Age, Mass Effect, The Witcher, God of War, GTA, etc. I was very curious going in, but I'm so happy that it ticked almost all the boxes for me.
Loved
▪️Production values have gone through the roof. As someone whose played every Bioware game for like...decades, it looks like a big improvement on what came before
▪️I dig the art style here. I'm sorry, it looks nothing like Fortnite lol. It's got this almost pseudo-painted quality to the character models while also retaining traits of realistic rendering
▪️Particularly loved the soundtrack so far, lots of foreboding tunes mixed with epic flair
▪️Voice acting sounded good, facial animations are great and that HAIR TECH ❤️
▪️SCOUT HARDING romance has commenced from now 😍
▪️Minrathous is cool as hell
▪️Loved how busy the world and environment looked. The rain, the demon invasion, background effects, NPCs
▪️Combat looks fun. I've always played Dragon Age as an action RPG, never really bothered with the tactical camera, and Inquisition was pretty much full action RPG to me, so this looks like a further evolution of that
▪️Loved how dynamic the bigger fights are, like the Pride Demon and how the different attacks engage the player
▪️SCOUT HARDING
Guarantees
▪️Solas you bastard, your egg head is getting scrambled
Questions
▪️Obviously, this was the very start of the game, so things like combat abilities and the like aren't available until later. I want to see how it all plays with more advanced abilities and on higher difficulties in more intense battles
▪️How many choices/decisions from past games are making it through?
▪️How customizable is everything specifically with regards to weapons and armor
Overall as a big Dragon Age fan, I'm quite satisfied. I can't wait for launch.
New locations, new companions, new choices - the next Dragon Age is well worth the wait ⚔️
