So im curious can you kill all the companions in the game like in the same game? Also how do you kill them just like dont level them up or somthing? Also can you play with no companions. Teach me master please and ty.
Lol... "Let" that happen...? "Ah my dear. It was not as the natural consequences of negligent choices...it was rather a very carefully crafted series of unfortunate events". 🤔😏
To be fair, even Mass Effect 2 had that -Jacob: I could get the door open -Miranda: Oh any biotic could do that! The difference is when you misjudged their capabilities and someone died, you actually felt bad for them (except Jacob)
2012: "Guys, you don't get it! Shepard was actually indoctrinated and the ending was all in his head." 2024: "Guys, you don't get it! Rook isn't actually a wuss and the whole game is him playing 4D chess to kill everyone."
@@HypnoChode74 I assume you hate it being used as explanation for the ending (as it doesn't fit the in-game narrative) and not the theory itself, which could've worked well with a competent writer... and a publisher not eager to turn nerdy sci-fi IPs into calladooty clones.
@@strangeeric9760yeah that theory implemented by a good writer with side quests and NPC convos that subtly allude to said theory wouldve enriched the story alot. Still love the game tho
@@strangeeric9760 The problem with the theory is that it's clearly not what the writers were going for. Sure it's a cool concept for a sci-fi story, just not Mass Effect 3's story. In no draft is it ever even implied that we're not playing through the "real" story, it all very much happens the way Sheppard sees it.
@@christianvondruska8244 True. One could have assumed something's "wrong" when, from the very beginning, the game practically shoves this little kid in our face, even makes you interact with him in an eerie sort of way, implying that no one else can even see him around except us. And then he haunts our dreams with those "oily shadows" like the indoctrinated Rachni Queen described in Mass Effect 1. And then he is the personification of the Reaper hivemind. Weird stuff, huh. But no. The Extended Cut proves that everything is "real". The endings are real. Apparently, the kid was real too. It just took Shepard this one random Canadian kid to be zapped before his eyes to finally snap and have nightmares. Not the thousands of Batarian kids he annihilated with the Arrival DLC asteroid. Not the dozens (hundreds?) of human colonists' kids goo-ified by the Collectors in ME2. Not the biotic kids slaughtered in Grissom academy. No. Just this one kid. One kid we've seen for, like, 5 minutes? Cool.
It's sad because theres no option to kill them ourselves. I would love if i could literally slaughter them at any moment and the goal of the game was prevent other companions knew you are the one killing them.
Honestly, pretending to being nice and supportive while secretly hating every single one of them and waiting for a moment when you can send them to die(because they trust you too much to question your decision, you WERE nice and supportive) is seems to be the only way to actually role-play as evil character.
@@cormacbevins9679 yeah, if you had a choice to begin with this is even more evil, but this is the only way to be at least passively evil since the game doesn't give you any option to be evil.
You would think, at some point, someone would notice Rook keeps getting his team killed, and go, "Okay, clearly we made a mistake putting you in any sort of leadership position."
Indeed, expected them to yell "I am very offended for attacking me!" and mobs would go "oh sorry, what are your pronouns and which of the 500+ genders are you, so that i can do appropriate amount of pushups to placate you". Well, they probably add a patch or DLC soon which will make these changes.
Playing Mass Effect 2: I make sure everyone survived for the perfect ending. Playing Dragon's Age Failguard: I make sure everyone dies for the perfect ending.
My goal is to get everyone but the grey warden and the necromancer killed because they are the only decent characters. Everyone else I am going to get killed because they are insufferable
You didn't provide death trigger waming! My social justice support animal, Sage-Pisces (Xe/Xem), Feline American , ADAB, has death anxiety and this could have caused a Mild Stress Incident (MSI). I've made a formal complaint to Joe Biden to have you cancelled and Veilguard privileges revoked.
It really says a lot that in ME2, I would STILL strive to ensure the survival of the characters I wasn't as fond of. Like Jack, or Jacob. They didn't click with me...but I didn't want them to die, I still had the bare minimum of care for their wellbeing as characters, they deserved to live. In Veilguard I just...didn't care at all. Most of them were bland enough they left no impact at all, I didn't care if they lived or died. But Taash...Taash was the one I went out of my way to ensure didn't survive. I cared enough to make certain they weren't coming back, my gift to their poor, suffering mother.

@@FEDsShotMOM yes.... What they did to her it's insane. Looks like a special torture.... I newer see the "good" Morigan and now i know why i don't want it..
for me, taash is the only companion i want to send to her end, cant stand her one bit, especially when she was bullying emmerick and being super disprespectful to the cool necromancer grandpa. I already hated her before that scene, but afterwords i vowed to send her to her death, watching all the ways she can die in this video was cathartic for me, now i just have to pick which way i want to end her,
@@Unethical.FandubsGamesIf you’re saying, "I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy," then they’re not really your enemy. -somewhere i forgot where i heard it
I TRIED TO KILL TRAASH SO HARD, but alas I did her personal quest and couldn't get her to fucking die. Even looked up what to do with her to get her killed, but the traash survived.....
@@Limrasson "hey hey, you are a veil jumper you say ? Have you already... -burp- jumped in.. someone's veil ? haha " *belch and scratch his ass in front of an horrified bellara*
I love how a bunch of mage companions just completely forget they're mages and instead of casting a spell, straight up charge the Darkspawn, only to get absolutely wrecked, when trying to protect Morrigan. These companions are so unbelievably stupid, it's too funny! Not even Mass Effect 2's Jacob was this incompetent and that is a hell of a low bar!
@@NinjaFlibble Once you reach the Collector base, you can opt to send him through the vents. It results in the door taking longer to close, he sticks his head out in the open as trying to close it, and dies from a missile hitting him square in the head. It's hilarious!
"All right people, while Stephen Hawkins defeats Mike Tyson, Hulk Hogan will hack their firewalls." "Fantastic plan, nothing can stop us." _Earth explodes_
It’s hilarious how bloodless all of these deaths are, and the way they position the camera to hide the aftermath of getting pancaked with a war hammer is like they’re in a PG13 movie.
For a mature game rated for ages 17 and up, you'd think they would make the character deaths a bit more brutal and gruesome, not cartoonish and wholesome.
I have yet to find one (1) person who plays this game, points at the screen, and then claims "That's me!!" I mean, the entire purpose of ruining this game with lectures was so that some people could see themselves. Where are they?
@professorwright1428 how tf would I know at first he is the main villain in veilguard I only play a few hrs of the pirated version cause I'm not giving money to those fucks, why would I finish this trash
Would be funny if people make Montages of themselves killing the DEI Squad to the point of the devs removing the option out of spite or responding on Twitter.
I like how they try to pull a mass effect 2 by having the loyalty missions determine if they live or die, but rather than it being circumstances or your choices, it seems like their own incompetence gets them killed. Like, the three MAGES, one who uses a BOW, grab a stick run up within whacking distance of the guy with a big ass hammer.
Veilguard was written by people who have never touched any RPG in order to gain brownie points with a loud and annoying minority who don't even play video games, but absolutely *must* be represented in every game otherwise they'll scream "bigot" at you
@@robertwoods3871 Unfortunately, the loud minority do play video games, but so do the people this game is suposidly trying to represent. People on the right hate it because it's any representation, people on the left hate it because it's shitty representation. Takes some real skill to get trans and terf people to agree
@@fareastman8127 That is one of the most hideous game characters I've ever seen. It even has the woke uniform of the nosering and awful coloured hair. '' I don' feel like a man or a woman''. No shit, you are shite at either but I ''feel'' like not bothering with your twattery.
@@ZarkowsWorldonly their questline matter. If they have legend status they will die only if you set them on full oposite of their skill but harding or davrin will die anyway and don't lock achievment
"X was a POOR CHOICE for Y" hey now game! t hat's a little too mean to say! i demand a patch to protect my precious feelings so it doesnt feel like i'm being judged so bad! i cant even call people idiots in this game! why is the game implying i'm one?!
Like, I'm pretty sure I can tell that was a bad choice when they got mirked, but sure game: go ahead and spell it out for me with a popup tutorial, like you did with suggesting which hero to pick.
The death I wanted for Traash was to be impaled by the tentacle lady, but since that isn't an option... the large hammer guy is the second best. Not quite ideal since they animated it like a big bonk instead of bone crushing, but it will do.
I disagree, the hammer death gives us a close up of her face and any close up of taash’s face triggers my fight or flight response to the point where I’d have a lobotomy just to forget it
Remember ME2 and how you don't want ABSOLUTELY anyone to die at the final mission? (Except for Jacob in the vents maybe). Well, Veilguard tries to do that so hard that it fails miserably because every single companion is a blob, and the writing certainly doesn't help.
seeing them win is actually the evil ending for DA fans, this however puts a smile on my face and i would have done the same if i hadnt lost interest in the game after couple hours
Well, why would she do that? Obviously, Morrigan, like the rest of us, enjoyed this outcome. By the way, she influenced the purchases of this game-containing product. And without it, "it" would not have any sales.
This game is in serious need of a mod to replace Taash with a nug. What an improvement that would be. No voice lines whatsoever. Just a nug being a nug.
Far cry 6 and Mass Effect Andromeda gives me companions that I really want to kill off. Far cry 6 actually makes me wish I could side with the ruling government and destroy the rebels instead.
@@lingricen8077 I don't pretend to know or understand the lifestyle, but I have a friend who is trans so I will at least do the correct terminology. Nobody else has to, but I choose to, that's all. Fictional character who I would kick out of an upper floor window or otherwise.
@@lingricen8077 I don't pretend to know or understand or even really care about the lifestyle, but I have a friend who is trans so the bare minimum I'll do is the terminology. Nobody else has to, I don't care if anybody else does, you do you, but I choose to. Fictional character who I would punt out of an upper-storey window or otherwise lmao
I like how Traash should be fine in the chaos of the battle, considering she's a warrior type and hunts dragons. Dies. Davrin, the fake Grey Warden, joins the Wardens. Dies.
I think it's like Mass Effect 2, if you do the loyalty mission they can beat some segments, but if you don't they'll fail regardless. But yes, the irony is hilarious.
The guy you see in the cinematic is the Dragon King, Taash nemesis in her companion mission. If he is alive, it mean you didn't do Taah missions, and if the faction she help in this segment is too weak (because you didn't help them or upgraded them), yes, she get killed. If you do things properly, she survives
Just like in Dwarf Fortress, we want to root for the short alcoholics wearing dwarven steel armor and wielding badass axes while they beat the crap out of pointy-eared hippies that wear WOODEN ARMOR.
Well, we can save few of them. Emmerich and Harding survies, it must be enough for minimum requirements for Thedas still won good ending. And Emmerich and Harding are ok.
It baffles me that these developers had the gall to implement a suicide mission on this game. This games tone is so all over the place that definitely doesnt deserve this sort of pay off. Not to mention after playing this game for almost 60 hours, all of these deaths are absurdly goofy considering how we fight hordes of Venatori, Darkspawn and Qunari in normal gameplay and yet every single companion can just get brain fart and die with a single blow of a hammer from a random grunt. We killed an Archdemon and two blighted Dragons but the Big Green spooky skeleton and a lady with a staff was the real dangerous encounter we need to prepare for.
Arguably, if you only need to make one mistake to die, it is very realistic to win 99 such fights, and lose your life in the last. As is dying to random "acts of god" such as an earthquake or falling building. However, the writing really doesn't convince you of that. If you actually send them up against a powerful foe and have them all make different and believeable mistakes, now that would be interesting.
Imagine being a veteran officer marching out to put down a rebellion and you die from dysentery. Or you survive the most bloody global conflict at the time only to die in a low speed collision. Being badass is not a hard counter to mortality.
And the thing is when they die you don’t feel like the squad mates did something utterly stupid, it genuinely looks like nothing could have been done to prevent it. You just know that if they die, it’s your fault as a leader. In Veilguard however they just straight up do the dumbest shit and look like incompetent morons, so they couldn’t even get the tension of the situation right lol
My front door has a natural resistance to blunt force, but if I hit it with a sledgehammer, I could probably still break it.
7 днів тому
But Harding now has magic, she isn't immune anymore, because the lyrium dagger broke her tranquil status (that's why the dwarves block magic, because they are basically tranquils thanks to Solas and Mythal)
4:45 - I just noticed but I do like how the hammer doesn't knock the character being struck from the side away, instead it just stops all momentum like an axe would if it were halfway burried inside the character's torso, maybe originally it was supposed to be an axe and they censored it.
I think they just got lazy and wanted to keep the character in shot for the death, but I see what you mean. It does look absurd, its like the hammer's force got cancelled out by a magical kinetic nullifying barrier located around the character's torso
Oh yeah, there is even a sound effect (which never make sense btw) that seems more fitting to an axe then to a hammer. Which means nothing since everything about it is bad anyway.
Ahh, yes. The good ending to this nightmare. Now we turn back time and make sure the veilguard doesn't happen. We are stopping solas with the inquisitor
The saddest part about all this is that this final segment was the only thing in the entire game that remotely looked like good old BW. That little soul that used to exist, only lightly shining here while being covered with garbage all around it. Which is far more annoying as it shows that this game might've had a chance at being good if we didn't live in the time period of circus where clowns run rampant, throwing their pies at everyone on street, and everyone pretending that this behavior should be accepted outside of said circus.

"Traash was unprepared and died in the fight"
Finally, something good coming out of that "game"
for me, taash is the only companion i want to send to her end, cant stand her one bit, especially when she was bullying emmerick and being super disprespectful to the cool necromancer grandpa. I already hated her before that scene, but afterwords i vowed to send her to her death, watching all the ways she can die in this video was cathartic for me, now i just have to pick which way i want to end her,
@@darkelftenak For me it was when she started... growling at other characters... I don't want a creep like that on any team. Not even my worst enemy.

I love how a bunch of mage companions just completely forget they're mages and instead of casting a spell, straight up charge the Darkspawn, only to get absolutely wrecked, when trying to protect Morrigan. These companions are so unbelievably stupid, it's too funny!

It’s hilarious how bloodless all of these deaths are, and the way they position the camera to hide the aftermath of getting pancaked with a war hammer is like they’re in a PG13 movie.
For a mature game rated for ages 17 and up, you'd think they would make the character deaths a bit more brutal and gruesome, not cartoonish and wholesome.

"Dragons would have Queens, not Kings"
-Taash, ten seconds before being fatally struck.
Someone called Taash "she" and I had to correct them. "- They are identifying as Garbage."
Someone in the future: Hm, bone structure says female.
I guess her spine identified as "bonemeal" after that hammer blow.
I'm surprised they even let you do this. Considering how many choices you already don't get to make.
And it involves the characters dying.
They really thought that the character deaths would be so impactful, meaningful and powerful to the story 😂
Would be funny if people make Montages of themselves killing the DEI Squad to the point of the devs removing the option out of spite or responding on Twitter.
At least we can kill off taash that is at least 1 good thing the game lets us do
@@TheRealJohnux That would be awesome. Lets make it happen. Expose these devs for the fraudulent activists they really are.
This was so therapeutic after seeing so many videos of this nightmare game.
God, it’s so cathartic to watch them be put out of our misery.
I like how they try to pull a mass effect 2 by having the loyalty missions determine if they live or die, but rather than it being circumstances or your choices, it seems like their own incompetence gets them killed. Like, the three MAGES, one who uses a BOW, grab a stick run up within whacking distance of the guy with a big ass hammer.
Veilguard was written by people who have never touched any RPG in order to gain brownie points with a loud and annoying minority who don't even play video games, but absolutely *must* be represented in every game otherwise they'll scream "bigot" at you
@@robertwoods3871 Unfortunately, the loud minority do play video games, but so do the people this game is suposidly trying to represent. People on the right hate it because it's any representation, people on the left hate it because it's shitty representation. Takes some real skill to get trans and terf people to agree
Yes because the Vent Specialist dying by sticking their head out into enemy fire for absolutely no reason definitely isn't due to incompetence
The most surprising thing to see was that they actually put an encounter into the game where Tash dies.
Finally, this obnoxious abomination of a character is disposed of.
Taash dying is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen
It just takes way too long to get there

The fact that they CAN die is the one single aspect of this abomination that's somewhat respectable.

I wish the big hammer guy was recruitable instead of Taash
yeah, some games do that, give you choices, "recruit X from faction Y, OR recruit his enemy V from faction B". Either way you only get one.
Was about to post something similar when I saw you comment. Yeah this big dude is way more enjoyable in a team than Trash.

Imagine having the audacity to imply that some people are not fit for certain roles!
Maaan I was having a bad day but this made me laugh. That grin on Rook's face made me spit out my drink. Thank you. I feel oddly lighter XD
No one else is saying it.
I appreciate what you went through to have to get these clips for us. Your sacrifice will be remembered.
The death I wanted for Traash was to be impaled by the tentacle lady, but since that isn't an option... the large hammer guy is the second best. Not quite ideal since they animated it like a big bonk instead of bone crushing, but it will do.
Great minds think alike 😊
I will buy this game just to have taash die like that in every play through
I was thinking of let it tortured by the skeleton king...too bad it seems can't be🙈
I disagree, the hammer death gives us a close up of her face and any close up of taash’s face triggers my fight or flight response to the point where I’d have a lobotomy just to forget it
I wonder whether its possible to still have a good ending with only taash dying
That Large Hammer Guy is the new Marauder Shields of our times :)
2:09 Trash: Dragons dont have kings. They have queens.
Dragon King: Hail to the king baby!
Mass Effect 2: “I will save you all”

Same. It's so satisfying to see
I can't enjoy it. Every time I see her, I have to recoil. Her design even ruins her death for me.
Brings me joy
Same, the only good part of the game
Tash was the name of the evil god of the Calormenes in the Chronologicals of Narnia.
Remember ME2 and how you don't want ABSOLUTELY anyone to die at the final mission? (Except for Jacob in the vents maybe).
Well, Veilguard tries to do that so hard that it fails miserably because every single companion is a blob, and the writing certainly doesn't help.
That smile is the gaming world all smiling in unison.
I’m Commander Shepard and this is my favorite Veilguard video on UA-cam.
Taash's mom can finaly have her bittersweet existence, not good, but better, than when her abusive grown up daughter was around
It’s bad when you get more entertainment from watching them die and lose them you do seeing them win
seeing them win is actually the evil ending for DA fans, this however puts a smile on my face and i would have done the same if i hadnt lost interest in the game after couple hours
Reminds me of how one of the highest watched videos for Last of Us 2 is of Abbey's friends getting killed
My question is; why the fuck was Morrigan struggling? She can turn into a dragon and other various creatures.
And the writers completely forgot about that because they’re idiots and terrible writers.
Well, why would she do that? Obviously, Morrigan, like the rest of us, enjoyed this outcome. By the way, she influenced the purchases of this game-containing product. And without it, "it" would not have any sales.
The thought of Morrigan being self aware and based put a smile on my face!
That's Morrigan?

Trust me, I could tell by looking at them.
Taash was unprepared for the fact that your gender is completely determined at birth by your DNA and genitals.
> Was a poor choice (when I bought this game)
>Was unprepared (at being so relieved to discover i was trans)
This game is in serious need of a mod to replace Taash with a nug. What an improvement that would be. No voice lines whatsoever. Just a nug being a nug.
Probably the only game where you actively root for your companions to fail.

Just shows how incompetent they all are.

That s**t eating grin though...
Priceless.
Wait Taash the "sUpeR wArRiOr" chick cant handle the battle segment? That is honestly pretty funny.
I think it's like Mass Effect 2, if you do the loyalty mission they can beat some segments, but if you don't they'll fail regardless.
But yes, the irony is hilarious.
Chick? PUSH-UPS, NOW!!!
Lol jk ya got em good
The guy you see in the cinematic is the Dragon King, Taash nemesis in her companion mission. If he is alive, it mean you didn't do Taah missions, and if the faction she help in this segment is too weak (because you didn't help them or upgraded them), yes, she get killed.
If you do things properly, she survives
Trash was always weak.
@@scarocci7333 Getting her killed **is** doing it properly.
What's even funnier is that you're playing a dwarf, and purposely over encouraging elves to get sent to their deaths.
Just like in Dwarf Fortress, we want to root for the short alcoholics wearing dwarven steel armor and wielding badass axes while they beat the crap out of pointy-eared hippies that wear WOODEN ARMOR.

@@Doctorolivercook except that Solas Elgi, he's one of the Good ones.
Watching the griffin Assan chase after Darvin was the only sad part.
Gotta love how Bioware had no balls to give a real bad ending. "Oh, yeah, your party and Rook is gone, but don't worry Thedas still won!"
The bad ending is where they all survive xD
Well, we can save few of them. Emmerich and Harding survies, it must be enough for minimum requirements for Thedas still won good ending. And Emmerich and Harding are ok.
It baffles me that these developers had the gall to implement a suicide mission on this game. This games tone is so all over the place that definitely doesnt deserve this sort of pay off.
Not to mention after playing this game for almost 60 hours, all of these deaths are absurdly goofy considering how we fight hordes of Venatori, Darkspawn and Qunari in normal gameplay and yet every single companion can just get brain fart and die with a single blow of a hammer from a random grunt.
We killed an Archdemon and two blighted Dragons but the Big Green spooky skeleton and a lady with a staff was the real dangerous encounter we need to prepare for.
Bru by the same logic it would have no sense Doomguy can be trapped by some dumb robot after killed hundred of demons. Videogame logic
Arguably, if you only need to make one mistake to die, it is very realistic to win 99 such fights, and lose your life in the last. As is dying to random "acts of god" such as an earthquake or falling building. However, the writing really doesn't convince you of that. If you actually send them up against a powerful foe and have them all make different and believeable mistakes, now that would be interesting.
Imagine being a veteran officer marching out to put down a rebellion and you die from dysentery. Or you survive the most bloody global conflict at the time only to die in a low speed collision. Being badass is not a hard counter to mortality.
Don't care, watching them die was therapeutic. All sense was thrown out when they decided to launch this game so now we're just enjoying the show
This is like the anti suicide mission of ME2, where you don't really care if anyone dies
Ah they tried to do the mass effect 2 ending thingy but with terrible characters. So you feel nothing when they die. Nice.
Nothing? I felt rejoice
Imagine the final mission in ME2, but everyone is Jacob :D
And the thing is when they die you don’t feel like the squad mates did something utterly stupid, it genuinely looks like nothing could have been done to prevent it. You just know that if they die, it’s your fault as a leader.
In Veilguard however they just straight up do the dumbest shit and look like incompetent morons, so they couldn’t even get the tension of the situation right lol
@@BaranZenonI would still save Jacob in compare to this but sadly he always dies in vent
@@BaranZenonIf Jacob was in this game, he would be the best character in this game.
The shit eating smile got me everytime
Dwarven subversion at its finest
When I discovered that they can actually get killed in the final mission I restarted It to have the best possible ending...and to let them all die
A dwarf dying to blood magic is kinda ironic considering they have a natural resistance to magic
Let's be real here, I don't think the writers even remembered that dwarves are supposed to have magic resistance.
My front door has a natural resistance to blunt force, but if I hit it with a sledgehammer, I could probably still break it.
But Harding now has magic, she isn't immune anymore, because the lyrium dagger broke her tranquil status (that's why the dwarves block magic, because they are basically tranquils thanks to Solas and Mythal)
'-And this corpse was definitely non-binary.'
'How can you tell?'
'It has a annoying, whiny aura about it, even in death.'
🤣
It has the face of a gargoyle and a body shaped like an oak.
"Nope. There's no way we can tell these bones apart..."
Good use of “it” there
LMAO!!!
1:13 The one you’ve ALLLL been waiting for
Surprising, I expected them to make Taash bascially have godmode.
I expected a "Whoops, one of our, i mean your precious companions just died, now load your last save."
4:45 - I just noticed but I do like how the hammer doesn't knock the character being struck from the side away, instead it just stops all momentum like an axe would if it were halfway burried inside the character's torso, maybe originally it was supposed to be an axe and they censored it.
I think they just got lazy and wanted to keep the character in shot for the death, but I see what you mean. It does look absurd, its like the hammer's force got cancelled out by a magical kinetic nullifying barrier located around the character's torso
Oh yeah, there is even a sound effect (which never make sense btw) that seems more fitting to an axe then to a hammer.
Which means nothing since everything about it is bad anyway.
Beautiful video, you literally put together all the best options and best moments from the game into 1 video.
A truly work of art!
Ahh, yes. The good ending to this nightmare. Now we turn back time and make sure the veilguard doesn't happen.
We are stopping solas with the inquisitor
The saddest part about all this is that this final segment was the only thing in the entire game that remotely looked like good old BW. That little soul that used to exist, only lightly shining here while being covered with garbage all around it. Which is far more annoying as it shows that this game might've had a chance at being good if we didn't live in the time period of circus where clowns run rampant, throwing their pies at everyone on street, and everyone pretending that this behavior should be accepted outside of said circus.
“It was over”
