Got the game this morning clocked in a decent 10 hours and idk what all the hate is about.. its by far not perfect but its really fun!! I have no regrets, don't let people tell you that this game is bad.. just play it for yourself first and then decide 🤝
You know exactly why people are saying that and the types of people saying it. You can scroll through the comment directly below you and it's just like 3 knuckledraggers complaining that there's a CHOICE, and their logic is that "choice" is forced on them cause they "need to see it", of being trans and "forced" pronouns. Real brainrot "opinions".
People have standards and expectations. Compared to other games in franchise it is severely underdeveloped. I personally hate illusion of choice. No matter what dialog option you choose, it will sound exactly like all the other options. All “major” plot choices are also a joke. All you can choose is which companion will get hurt or killed, but it has 0 impact on the plot or narration. It was different in past games. This is why people are livid.
Before veilguard never care for a dragon age game after seeing how the combat look and I don’t mind light hearted tone I’m still in my early 20s so sometimes I just wanna enjoy a movie or a game that’s light hearted and not always serious an shit
thats why i didnt watch anyone's content, or reviews, or anything about this game. i went into this game like i wanted. a game we all waited for for 10 years...and i wanted to protect my own mind from influence of others.
I agree. As a Dragonage veteran I can say that this game is fun to play and still feels like a Dragonage game at its core. The hate is undeserved and exaggerated.
I really don't understand the negativity. There are so many people hating this game when it only came out yesterday. What's the point of criticizing a game you haven't played?
@@GorgoniteDew Nothing is "forced" you can ignore whatever you want. It is there but so what? you will not become a cow because you look at the picture of a cow, or will you? You have the right to not like the game, but it's objectively too early for most of the haters to know why they hate it.
@jean-noell2269 Nothing is forced, are we talking about the same game. If you can't see the forced pronouns and pushing of trans ideology into the dialogue and character creator.... then we are far from having a serious and productive conversation.
@jean-noell2269 The gameplay could be top tier immaculate, which iy isn't based on what I have seen, and it still wouldn't be too "early" It is objectively...vastly different than Origins, the superior game in the series.
Just finished my nightmare run as a Champion warrior. The rune Deminish (I believe that's what it's called) allows you to apply an AoE weakness. Comboing this with the firebomb works really well, especially if you utilize the helmet that makes everything a 1 min CD. The rune and bomb will be on the same rotation. This freed Neve up to use blizzard which is crazy good. Pairing with Lucanis to detonate Overpower / and provide enhanced damage for free is very potent.
I have enjoy my time with the game my first run took me 65hrs. There are some issues like same body animations for Rook after the first hours which can pull you out a little. A certain companion with some dialog option which for my taste do not belong in dragon age or a fantasy RPG (political propaganda classic of a western game nowdays). The writing in some places feels weak compare to others but the combat, companions and final act are really good. Overall a solid 8 out 10 game.
I hate the fact that the game didn't tell me that I can't do some of the quest after recruiting Davrin. In all of the DA games I firstly wanted to gather all party and then go to do all my quests and someone there in the Bioware decided that it would be great to lock party member content to a main plot! Wow thanks! I already love this game, but failing Neve's personal quest because of this shitty decision just makes me soooo sooo mad.... I wanted to do her quest, but when I had all the other companions. Shit. Just why? Why? Why couldn't they tell me that this mission is so important? And I can't really load a save now, cause I would destroy all my 9 hours progress... And I don't know what to do now...
Same. I chose to save Minrathous. Hadn't even explored Treviso yet, or done much exploring at all. Like you I wanted to get all companions first. Frustrating, but oh well next playthrough will be more complete.
I think all that is intentional, after you unlock a new area with the introduction quest, you now have freedom go back and explore to your hearts content. And the game never tells you it but there are certain pathways, obstacles and quests that can be done ONLY when you advance further in the game. That logic is the same as with Inquisition. Also, some quests you get introduced to, but can only be continued after progressing the main story. For instance, just by exploring and doing all the companion personal quests and exploring as much of Arlathan, Minrathus, and Treviso as possible, there's about 3 quests left to do in the crossroads, and those specific 3 can only be progressed by doing the main story. And all that is before recruiting Davrin
I wish I saw this video sooner :( before I started mission 6. I usually do everything before I continue and I save before main mission but now, I just wanted to first get all companions and then do the companion mission and boom, after mission 6 two mission are not available anymore. I am so sad and angry cause I for some reason for this game I didn't save before mission 6 and I can't go back to fix this. Well, I will be carefully on next play. There are consequences :D
I was skeptical but this game is actually a lot of fun and has a great story/dialog, the fights are fun and there is a ton of different skills/play styles.

Any RPG where your choices are pointless is objectively terrible. Character name is a great example. It doesn't matter what you choose as your name because almost every character in the game is just going to refer to you as Rook anyway. That's just terrible. Play a shitty game if you want.

Lvl 50 without the Fen'Harel statues. The statues give you one point each to use on your skill tree, I think there's something like 15 statues to find. So you'll have like 65 points total to put into your tree.
I love this game. People saying buying it is a big mistake are huge attention seeker in YT. Because they are so sad and broken, they have no new Dragon age to play. 😂

@@Lado423 Not even that bad, maybe it depend on the dialog choices, or certain character also. I am not far in the game, but so far it's fun ( it's a game, fun is the point).
I think its a solid game so far. The other stuff i can ignore(havent unlocked the qunari yet). But i cant get over how lame the diolouge is outside of Solas. Its not always bad but occasionally it feels like forspoken's writers helped with this.
That’s because most Americans want everything spoon fed to them they don’t get nuance. The writing is at time a little childish but no game I’ve ever played has had marvelous writing throughout the whole game. No game has Oscar level dialogue
@@connordutton674that’s honestly so true tho. I’m so confused by everyone saying “the writing is bad” cuz I’m just wondering what game they consider having good writing then lmao. Every dragon age game has had terrible writing overall. Cool creativity at times, but that’s not good writing. Honestly Veilguard at least holds consistency in theme and tone unlike some other entries in the franchise. People complaining about the writing being worse than previous dragon age games clearly just don’t know what good writing is. The franchise has always been weak writing. Cool lore for sure, but never strong writing from a technical standpoint.
The number of people hating a game they haven't played is asinine! Go play something else you like then lol, why spend your time bashing a game that doesn't appeal to you? Ya'll weird.
@@worminit8530lol because 100% of people claiming being liberals are sane ... there are no narcissists. abusers who vomit their virtue signaling on social media who are incredibly abusive when nobody looks at them. This is the real hate
The nice thing about all the "don't buy it" comments is that they still help the algorithm! I wasn't aware of your channel, but am subscribing today. Thanks for this video! And thanks, weird random haters, for bringing it to my attention!
I have been doing side quests but I faced enemies of 34 level and I am 12, not sure how I did that, but I could not beat it up and the battle lasted for very long time.
You probably figured this out already, but for later viewers/readers: Some things are walled off by your progress in the main storyline, otherwise you can wander into a crazy strong enemy. If you’re reasonably competent at the fight mechanics you won’t know you’re swinging above your weight class until you find yourself in a multi-hour boss fight 😂 That said, if a quest or even just later parts of a quest are recommended for higher levels it will be noted in the quest menu in red under that quest. With the right party build and a lot (and I mean a lot) of patience it is possible to take enemies at a significantly higher level than you.
No my character looks fine everything is in proportion. Now am sure you can make a character with a huge ass head but every character including my own matches their body. I think sometimes because of armor types characters look a little fat but that’s about it.
Do enchants on companion armor affect Rook and if so, are the effects active if the companion is not in current party? Also, do the weapon passives remain active when using the other weapon set? Like staff giving 15% mana regen while wielding the dagger and orb?
most tips here are super obvious and told by the game itself after 2-3 hours of gameplay, oh bro stealing time is really your thing, I was just curious what a video of this type for this game could tell, well it's nothing actually
Literally my only complaint is....and someone please answer if it's just me having a shit tv....are there some areas that are so dark you cannot see anything? Going down the stairs in the lighthouse to the travel mirror is just walking blindly. I hate it so much.
If I can put up with every single freaking male companion openly hitting on my straight elven dude in BG3 and Aloy being pushed right at that snotty tart throughout the entirety of the Forbidden West DLC, I can sure as hell deal with a super confused Qunari tomboy for a whole two minutes.
Fr, I’m loving it. Story is great, my jaw has DROPPED like twice in 10 hours. The last time that happened in a video game was Jedi: survivor and the last time before that was bio shock infinite’s ending. Basically to say that’s really rare for me.
The fact that haters feel like they need to attack anyone who likes this game is really really telling. The game is selling very well, but the haters HAVE to berate folks who dare to like the game. BG3 had alot what the haters are crying aboit in it as well so.
What's interesting, is that many of those defending this game, are the same ones who were hating on Hogwarts Legacy. So it's interesting that, now they are complaining that people are hating on a game for ideological reasons- when they were doing the exact same to another game a short time ago.
We are not trying to be original. We just all recognize the same truth. It is like criticizing the kid who tells you the sky is blue for "not being original".
I played this is game only fun thing was the gameplay but even then I feel like there are less spells/abilities then the last game and the story is great but they dropped the ball hard dialogue is eye rolling and laughable then the tone was terrible everyone smiles and happy like the world isn’t ending also choice where is the choices nothing matters this was a let down
People can hate all they want. This game is insanely fun and I’m like 15 hours in and haven’t had any forced propaganda yet. As for it not being dark I’m confused because it’s hella dark and some enemies legit freak you out. Some of the bosses/elites in the world are a shock to run into and are super deadly. Honestly just feels like Dragon Age. New coat of paint but same game deep down.
You clearly didn't play Origins then. Finding out how the Darkspawn make more of their own was legitimately disturbing. Barring how ( subjectively, I will admit ) ugly the darkspawn design is in this game, there has been nothing remotely close to the Broodmother reveal for me `14ish hours in.
@ I love being told I haven’t played something by someone who doesn’t know me. I’ve probably got over 10,000 hours invested in this entire series. I literally read the lore in game, some of the new lore around the blight and blighted gods is insane.
@@bekahsmith1317 go back and look at origins and Inquisition those games have poor graphics. Go back and play origins and tell me how much you enjoy the gameplay. Inquisition characters most of them are super ugly the environments are beautiful but then so are these.
@@connordutton674 poor graphics? They had great graphics at their time. And I'm not talking about your opinion on the QUALITY. Tell me you don't have a clue what you are talking about without actually saying it. It's the art style.. And this has been repeated ad nauseum by so many people so spare of your feigned ignorance or intentional obtuse comments
The Pixar-esque artstyle will stand the test of time much better. There are plenty of examples of games that used a stylized, cartoonish aesthetic and look great 10+ years later as a result@bekahsmith1317
Tired of the negativity surrounding this game. If you don’t like it that’s fine. Move on and play something else. No one’s forcing you to play it. There’s absolutely no reason to attack anyone making content or commenting positively about the game.
No reason, huh? What about the fans of Dragon Age who were betrayed by the absolute dumpster 🔥 of a game. What about the people who wanted a dark fantasy rpg like the first two games? This is why it gets hate. If they made their own ip with this garbage, it wouldn't have sold. Period
I didn't realize that little detail until a couple of hours ago, its only elf alters give increase health, the wolf alters give an extra skill point. So yeah, its very important to farm the wolf alters in every location
This game has been REALLY fun and I love the animations, combat, graphics and physics. But istg, every time another lgbt ass twitter cringe scene appears on the screen, I have the urge to uninstall. Kinda ruining it a litte bit. ''I am non-binary'' - said the dark fantasy medieval era character.
The lack of real dialog choices and having to be the good savior is weak. The combat is pretty good but it’s everything else that is like nails on a chalk board bad. The game talks to you like one would a child. It is terrible. If you wanna get it on a sale then maybe but it is really tedious outside of combat.
Every fucking Dragon Age game is like this there are no evil play through like in BG3. You can’t choose to become blighted and take over the world bullshit. In Orgins your always herald as the savior of Ferelden same in DA2 and Inquisition. I admit some of the dialogue lacks nuance or is somewhat corny from time to time but it’s not that bad. Most of you talking crap about it haven’t even played it and are simply regurgitating what you have seen from other people talking about that probably haven’t even played it.
@connordutton674 I bought the game day one and have played a solid 15 hours. In the last DA game the dialogue choices carried more weight and had real edge to them. Apologies if how I articulated that confused you. This game lacks that edge so whatever. I have my opinion and you have yours. You like the game then keep enjoying it. I’m just saying the writing and dialogue aren’t that great compared to previous iterations. The art style is also a bit of a strange choice as is the weird makeover they gave the qunari. Overall the game is not what I expected as a follow up to DA Inquisition and for ME it is a game you grab on a sale. I have more gripes about some game design choices but it’s whatever.
All y’all sad saps are too broke to even buy it to begin with lol. I put in the pre order before even seeing anything and never have to feel bad about my wallet or who I’m giving my money to because I’m not broke. Y’all are sad.
I am 51 yr old female and have been the biggest dragonage fan since the first,playing each game multiple times with different classes and romance options in the past with each game, was huge fan.. this is so hard to admit that this such a huge disappointment. The story, look and feel, for me has ruined the franchise. Ive played about 10hrs and this is not what i wanted it to be. They /them have ruined the game for me. I regret buying this game. Feel like waiting 10 years for this has been a waste. I so wanted the journey on dragonage to make me feel like the past ones did.. but it does not. I don't even have the want in me to play more of it.. sad and disappointed prior fan. A end of a ara. I hope they never make another game as bad as this one. I for one will never pre order again.
@connordutton674 i don't like how they wrote the story, how they executed it, the way they baby you along with every aspect, I don't like how you interact with your party, that they seem so dull with little variations of what you have to say, have a choice to even say, it's a direct cut path to really nothing interesting, I don't like the simple concepts. For me it is not what a dragonage game should be. Let alone the agenda crap, fantasy games dont need to be schooled , be what ya want without the bs.. lacks in every area for me ..except the hair. They did good on the hair.. I so wanted to like it.. I so wanted a depth of story that dragonage was on a path to.. could of been great.. it's just disappointing.
I'm enjoying it more than the gameplay of 2 and Inquisition. The story, not so much. They've never approached the heights of Origins world design, characters, and story writing with any of the subsequent releases, though.
TBH I wasn’t gonna buy DA the transveil but I was bored. It’s actually really fun, tons of secrets to explore, combat is fun and the ability to skip every conversation and cut scene is a bonus. So far I would give it a 8 or 9 so far. Maybe it sucks later on but so far I’m having a blast.
@@jessey1729 Then, my friend, people like you are why we're going to keep getting weirdo social agenda forced on us in games. You have to be stronger than this. The last thing I want is to come home from a hard day of work and then play a game that gives me a 15 minute unavoidable cutscene of how we have to do pushups if we misgender someone. It's PATHETIC.
Khraze is showing everyone he openly supports DEI in gaming and supporting the people ruing the gaming industry by supporting this game and studio. You like or enjoy this game? You support DEI in gaming. Shame on you
Three words: Return Two Form. Period. This game *IS* peak Dragon Age, the series has never looked so good, has never been so amazeballs or ever featured so much welcome diversity and focus on new arenas. The game is a 10/10, I have never given any game this high a rating until this game, and I am proud, I am honored, I am justified. This game will reach new audiences and breach new ground. The game is as close to perfection as you can get. Period
No launcher, no microtransactions, no multiplayer, no season pass, no DRM, not even DLC is planned, because the game is complete. Yet gamers (derogatory) are whining. Very telling.
I bought this game n regret it though I’m only 7 hours in but I find I’m really forcing myself to play it. I’m a big dragon age fan but this is just plan n simple 💩 .
Oh wow, what a profoundly original comment, you come up with that all by yourself? As a massive fan of Origins and hater of both DA2 and Inquisition, yeah, this is the best game since Origins, so cope harder.
@@GorgoniteDewWho said anything about tolerance? There should actually be zero tolerance for the kind of jumped-up little culture war freak that still just wastes everyone's time with trans panic hysteria.
After playing Baldurs gate this game is a huge disappointment, most childish dialogues of any game out there. But what else could we expect from some they/them smurfs working in this studio.
Bro that game isn’t even good anymore lol. Yeah maybe when we were 15 and everything was exciting. Y’all are cock riding harder than the character with top scars in this game.
Omg I just un-installed the game and am asking for the money back, the rook answers are pure hatred and not what I want, back to baldurs gate, still watching your videos you all are awesome
Yet here you are sitting in bed, alone, watching a video about a game you aren’t going to buy after telling everyone else you weren’t going to buy it on 20 other videos lol.
Actually, it's a success so far and most of us don't care what unenlightened ignorant backward bigots think. People are going to enjoy it regardless of other's weaknesses and bigotry.
i wonder when they mage dread wolf a proper sequel like this joke of a Dragon age game? this mite be good if ur just looking for entertainment, but if ur DA u will not like, it was not made for DA fans it was made for activists and fans who have been living in activist echo chamber so they see thing with activists lens

I can't see what is going on in the battles. Is there a way to turn of all the glowy things, damage number cascades and particle effects?
I think its a solid game so far. The other stuff i can ignore(havent unlocked the qunari yet). But i cant get over how lame the diolouge is outside of Solas. Its not always bad but occasionally it feels like forspoken's writers helped with this.
They were more concerned with the message than the writing.
The writing is disgusting 🤢
That’s because most Americans want everything spoon fed to them they don’t get nuance. The writing is at time a little childish but no game I’ve ever played has had marvelous writing throughout the whole game. No game has Oscar level dialogue
@@connordutton674that’s honestly so true tho. I’m so confused by everyone saying “the writing is bad” cuz I’m just wondering what game they consider having good writing then lmao. Every dragon age game has had terrible writing overall. Cool creativity at times, but that’s not good writing. Honestly Veilguard at least holds consistency in theme and tone unlike some other entries in the franchise. People complaining about the writing being worse than previous dragon age games clearly just don’t know what good writing is. The franchise has always been weak writing. Cool lore for sure, but never strong writing from a technical standpoint.
The number of people hating a game they haven't played is asinine! Go play something else you like then lol, why spend your time bashing a game that doesn't appeal to you? Ya'll weird.
What an asinine comment, that's what reviews are for, forming an opinion of whether it will be something you can enjoy. Why bash it? Because it's fun.
Right wing social engineering is why the haters can't just.......ignore games they don't like and enjoy games they do.
@@worminit8530lol because 100% of people claiming being liberals are sane ... there are no narcissists. abusers who vomit their virtue signaling on social media who are incredibly abusive when nobody looks at them. This is the real hate
@@TheT0nedude a review implies you actually played the game, not just parroting others opinions lol
@@worminit8530The hypocrisy of this comment is insane.
The nice thing about all the "don't buy it" comments is that they still help the algorithm! I wasn't aware of your channel, but am subscribing today. Thanks for this video! And thanks, weird random haters, for bringing it to my attention!
Can’t wait to beat inquisition and all its dlc for I can play veilguard
I’m really digging it. Thanks for the vid!
I have been doing side quests but I faced enemies of 34 level and I am 12, not sure how I did that, but I could not beat it up and the battle lasted for very long time.
You probably figured this out already, but for later viewers/readers:
Some things are walled off by your progress in the main storyline, otherwise you can wander into a crazy strong enemy. If you’re reasonably competent at the fight mechanics you won’t know you’re swinging above your weight class until you find yourself in a multi-hour boss fight 😂
That said, if a quest or even just later parts of a quest are recommended for higher levels it will be noted in the quest menu in red under that quest.
With the right party build and a lot (and I mean a lot) of patience it is possible to take enemies at a significantly higher level than you.
Just finished putting in 16 hours today 😭
Has anyone noticed that the character looks too short in this game maybe its the camera or something else
@@Nomad1243 its because they have too big heads
A little bit. Camera zoom adjustments help
No my character looks fine everything is in proportion. Now am sure you can make a character with a huge ass head but every character including my own matches their body. I think sometimes because of armor types characters look a little fat but that’s about it.
@@Nomad1243 you can change your character's height.
Do enchants on companion armor affect Rook and if so, are the effects active if the companion is not in current party?
Also, do the weapon passives remain active when using the other weapon set?
Like staff giving 15% mana regen while wielding the dagger and orb?
I use the warrior whit poison shield trow that when I kill an enemy they blow up and send orb to enemies and all elemental damage I do turns into fire
Think I missed out on half the companion quest by accident I'm on act 8 can anyone confirm this
I think as weird as it can be and how weird some choices theh made with it are it’s genuinely really fun
Thanks bro been waiting for u to upload this🙏🏾
Picking the wrong option with the mirror
most tips here are super obvious and told by the game itself after 2-3 hours of gameplay, oh bro stealing time is really your thing, I was just curious what a video of this type for this game could tell, well it's nothing actually
Literally my only complaint is....and someone please answer if it's just me having a shit tv....are there some areas that are so dark you cannot see anything? Going down the stairs in the lighthouse to the travel mirror is just walking blindly. I hate it so much.
Not just you. Some of them made me turn my brightness up
If I can put up with every single freaking male companion openly hitting on my straight elven dude in BG3 and Aloy being pushed right at that snotty tart throughout the entirety of the Forbidden West DLC, I can sure as hell deal with a super confused Qunari tomboy for a whole two minutes.
Bruh it’s so true. I just finished the game and honestly I feel way less accosted by gayness in this game than I did in baldur’s gate.
Games actually fun as hell
Fr, I’m loving it. Story is great, my jaw has DROPPED like twice in 10 hours. The last time that happened in a video game was Jedi: survivor and the last time before that was bio shock infinite’s ending. Basically to say that’s really rare for me.
@@brianschwarm8267 yeah I don’t believe either of you.

I’m having fun with it I love the combat man
good, cuz the combat doesn't change at all. The last fight is the same as the first. So good thing you like it.
@@AnxiousGary the game has long been beat by numerous people who actually got review copies. You can watch the footage of the whole game.
Buying 2 copies just to piss of these haters lol. Hope it sells millions just to hear them cry louder.
@@sevnsinnz6468 right there with you.
It peaked at only 70k all time on steam just absolutely horrendous it has already failed miserably 😂
Crying? I'm laughing at the stupidity, of the Devs and the people who spent their money on it. Didn't cost me a penny for this level of entertainment.
@@TheT0nedude the important thing is, one way or another, we’re all entertained! 😄
@traytyler9951 not only that but Monster hunter beta has 400,000 people and it just dropped a few hours ago 😂
Doesn't get deeper 😂. Dialog is cringe through out the whole game, lore is thrown out. Games good for battling that is it as a rpg it's is crap 😂
The fact that haters feel like they need to attack anyone who likes this game is really really telling. The game is selling very well, but the haters HAVE to berate folks who dare to like the game. BG3 had alot what the haters are crying aboit in it as well so.
What's interesting, is that many of those defending this game, are the same ones who were hating on Hogwarts Legacy. So it's interesting that, now they are complaining that people are hating on a game for ideological reasons- when they were doing the exact same to another game a short time ago.
It is definitely not selling well for a AAA game the numbers are insanely low. Can’t even hit 100k on steam!

Right, better yet, why are they still watching videos about a game they are claiming to never buy?
We are not trying to be original. We just all recognize the same truth. It is like criticizing the kid who tells you the sky is blue for "not being original".

I played this is game only fun thing was the gameplay but even then I feel like there are less spells/abilities then the last game and the story is great but they dropped the ball hard dialogue is eye rolling and laughable then the tone was terrible everyone smiles and happy like the world isn’t ending also choice where is the choices nothing matters this was a let down
I like the game so far only 2 hours in though
Too late to refund it then lol
@@anibala.moralessanchez8018don’t need to, the games fine.
@ don’t want to
People can hate all they want. This game is insanely fun and I’m like 15 hours in and haven’t had any forced propaganda yet.
As for it not being dark I’m confused because it’s hella dark and some enemies legit freak you out. Some of the bosses/elites in the world are a shock to run into and are super deadly.
Honestly just feels like Dragon Age. New coat of paint but same game deep down.
You clearly didn't play Origins then. Finding out how the Darkspawn make more of their own was legitimately disturbing.
Barring how ( subjectively, I will admit ) ugly the darkspawn design is in this game, there has been nothing remotely close to the Broodmother reveal for me `14ish hours in.
@ I love being told I haven’t played something by someone who doesn’t know me.
I’ve probably got over 10,000 hours invested in this entire series. I literally read the lore in game, some of the new lore around the blight and blighted gods is insane.
@@burns0100 You certainly don't know that you are a brainless consumer!
The graphics are very good
if by very good you mean a Pixar cartoon then yeah.. but it's not Dragon age
@@bekahsmith1317 go back and look at origins and Inquisition those games have poor graphics. Go back and play origins and tell me how much you enjoy the gameplay. Inquisition characters most of them are super ugly the environments are beautiful but then so are these.
@@connordutton674 poor graphics? They had great graphics at their time. And I'm not talking about your opinion on the QUALITY. Tell me you don't have a clue what you are talking about without actually saying it. It's the art style.. And this has been repeated ad nauseum by so many people so spare of your feigned ignorance or intentional obtuse comments
The Pixar-esque artstyle will stand the test of time much better. There are plenty of examples of games that used a stylized, cartoonish aesthetic and look great 10+ years later as a result@bekahsmith1317
Tired of the negativity surrounding this game. If you don’t like it that’s fine. Move on and play something else. No one’s forcing you to play it. There’s absolutely no reason to attack anyone making content or commenting positively about the game.
Fake positivity in name for future monetary gains you mean?
No reason, huh? What about the fans of Dragon Age who were betrayed by the absolute dumpster 🔥 of a game. What about the people who wanted a dark fantasy rpg like the first two games? This is why it gets hate. If they made their own ip with this garbage, it wouldn't have sold. Period
@@RedHarlow-b6y Fact!
I didn't realize that little detail until a couple of hours ago, its only elf alters give increase health, the wolf alters give an extra skill point. So yeah, its very important to farm the wolf alters in every location
This game has been REALLY fun and I love the animations, combat, graphics and physics. But istg, every time another lgbt ass twitter cringe scene appears on the screen, I have the urge to uninstall. Kinda ruining it a litte bit. ''I am non-binary'' - said the dark fantasy medieval era character.
The lack of real dialog choices and having to be the good savior is weak. The combat is pretty good but it’s everything else that is like nails on a chalk board bad. The game talks to you like one would a child. It is terrible. If you wanna get it on a sale then maybe but it is really tedious outside of combat.
Every fucking Dragon Age game is like this there are no evil play through like in BG3. You can’t choose to become blighted and take over the world bullshit. In Orgins your always herald as the savior of Ferelden same in DA2 and Inquisition. I admit some of the dialogue lacks nuance or is somewhat corny from time to time but it’s not that bad. Most of you talking crap about it haven’t even played it and are simply regurgitating what you have seen from other people talking about that probably haven’t even played it.
@connordutton674 I bought the game day one and have played a solid 15 hours. In the last DA game the dialogue choices carried more weight and had real edge to them. Apologies if how I articulated that confused you. This game lacks that edge so whatever. I have my opinion and you have yours. You like the game then keep enjoying it. I’m just saying the writing and dialogue aren’t that great compared to previous iterations. The art style is also a bit of a strange choice as is the weird makeover they gave the qunari. Overall the game is not what I expected as a follow up to DA Inquisition and for ME it is a game you grab on a sale. I have more gripes about some game design choices but it’s whatever.

@@Glimbosgold69 couldn’t agree more
All y’all sad saps are too broke to even buy it to begin with lol. I put in the pre order before even seeing anything and never have to feel bad about my wallet or who I’m giving my money to because I’m not broke. Y’all are sad.
I wasnt going to play this... change my mind sir!
I am 51 yr old female and have been the biggest dragonage fan since the first,playing each game multiple times with different classes and romance options in the past with each game, was huge fan.. this is so hard to admit that this such a huge disappointment. The story, look and feel, for me has ruined the franchise. Ive played about 10hrs and this is not what i wanted it to be. They /them have ruined the game for me. I regret buying this game. Feel like waiting 10 years for this has been a waste. I so wanted the journey on dragonage to make me feel like the past ones did.. but it does not. I don't even have the want in me to play more of it.. sad and disappointed prior fan. A end of a ara. I hope they never make another game as bad as this one. I for one will never pre order again.
But can you list what you didn’t like do you have valid criticisms? Maybe your not the same person you were 10-15 years ago
@connordutton674 i don't like how they wrote the story, how they executed it, the way they baby you along with every aspect, I don't like how you interact with your party, that they seem so dull with little variations of what you have to say, have a choice to even say, it's a direct cut path to really nothing interesting, I don't like the simple concepts. For me it is not what a dragonage game should be. Let alone the agenda crap, fantasy games dont need to be schooled , be what ya want without the bs.. lacks in every area for me ..except the hair. They did good on the hair.. I so wanted to like it.. I so wanted a depth of story that dragonage was on a path to.. could of been great.. it's just disappointing.
I'm enjoying it more than the gameplay of 2 and Inquisition. The story, not so much. They've never approached the heights of Origins world design, characters, and story writing with any of the subsequent releases, though.
The combat is not that bad, but the history is pure dogshit
Mistake #1: Buying this game.
TBH I wasn’t gonna buy DA the transveil but I was bored. It’s actually really fun, tons of secrets to explore, combat is fun and the ability to skip every conversation and cut scene is a bonus. So far I would give it a 8 or 9 so far. Maybe it sucks later on but so far I’m having a blast.
Mistake #2: Taking people like jessey who are astroturing seriously.
I came to write the same comment. 😂
@@chuckchan4127 just saying, I thought it would suck but it’s pretty fun.
@@jessey1729 Then, my friend, people like you are why we're going to keep getting weirdo social agenda forced on us in games. You have to be stronger than this. The last thing I want is to come home from a hard day of work and then play a game that gives me a 15 minute unavoidable cutscene of how we have to do pushups if we misgender someone. It's PATHETIC.
