I'll be honest, i haven't been hopeful, but if, some old bioware team members and veteran fans are having a bit of faith! I'll play it! And enjoy it for what it is! If the story is god like in DA II... I'll forgive them for the Fortnite pg13 design!
This man consistently kept the DA fandom going and wasn't invited to the Dragon Age press capture event while random streamers got invited. Where is justiiice. Appreciate what you do Jackdaw!
I think they love his videos soo much, so that they don't want to tell him more then anyone else. So that he can make more videos. But i agree with other a review copy for jackdaw would be cool.
100 hours is just Dragon Age 1 with DLC if you don't skip sidequests. This is like 300+ hours condensed since it includes replays and different endings.
@@KasumiRINA damn thanks on that info I've only put in 60 hours on Inquisition and felt like I'm maybe half way so I should have known better. Thanks I look forward to playing older DA titles in the future.
@@AD3SPG I don't know how long is Inquisition but Dragon Age Origins is a HUGE game, and two of DLCs are added to the main campaign (Watcher's Keep and Stone Prisoner), and there is that huge expansion the Awakening, and also a bunch of shorter separate stories like Leliana's Song and Darkspawn Chronicles, which are fun little distractions for an hour or two each. 100+ hours for main campaign and 20+ for standalone DLCs feels about right but you don't HAVE to do everything, though I honestly enjoyed Leliana's little adventure and the golem party member more than some parts of main story (khrm, Fade).
Inquisition was my first game, and I never got around to going back and playing the previous ones even though I own them, and now after watching this I'm definitely going to try and play them! What a great and easy to follow explanation. Really well done, thank you!
@@Tessa_Ru i had the same issue, i also got it on gog and that version has worked fine. If you get it on gog id also recommended making the game large address aware with a 4gb patcher for the executable. (Helps with stability)
Did I recently replayed them all and binged the comics to refresh myself because I hadn't seen them since I originally played them? Yes. Did I still watched this whole video? Yes, and thank you
Jack, this is an outstanding fan service and an excellent source for anyone interested in getting into the first games or learning about the lore if Veiguard is their first title. Mad props to you for such an undertaking. Fantastic job.
Sir, you are my savior! I got into these type of games because of Baldur's Gate 3 and I didn't have time to play all of the DA games, but now I am not feeling lost going into Veilguard in 2 (!!) days. Thank you so much!
Yeeesss I've been compiling a playlist to catch my partner up on DA before Veilguard because he loves the games but hasn't played them in a while, so this is perfect!
As someone new to the DA fandom... THANK YOU for this primer as I go into playing DATV!!!! I still might not get ALL of it... but I'm stoked to take my first steps in Thedas!
Thank you for recapping the entire Dragon Age series, including the DLCs. I’ve always been a big fan of Dragon Age in terms of story, lore and characters. I wonder how the story of Veilguard will play out.
You're doing God's work. Even explaining all the books related ❤❤❤ Before Veilguard there's Vows and Vengeance. I believe the end of episode 2 is the exact time when Harding went into the prologue time of Veilguard
Thanks so much for this video. I only played the games, and never read the comics, novels etc. This was great to know what exactly happens in the series outside of the main games. Thank you again 🙂
Thank you so so much for this video, I've been scared to play a Dragon Age game for years but I've been really hyped for Veilguard. Thank you for convincing me!
This is a labour of love and SO well done! Aside from the game, I had looked at some of the comics and books but was not completely up to date and this video was just what I needed. You have a real talent at summarizing the information in just the right amount, in a clear and concise way. I was able to make some links to stuff I already knew and may have had a few "ah hah moments" on stuff I "thought" I understood. I even learned some information that I had not fully grasped in all of my DA playthroughs. This is so valuable to the DA community and you should be super proud of this fine work!
Thank you for this, I was thinking on re playing the trilogy but considering how long Origins and Inquisition are, I prefer to refresh my memory, the 10 year wait is almost over folks!
@@JackdawYT Also, thank you for adding the books and comics as well! Just one thing, what happened to Wynne? I remember hearing she passed away somehow after the events in Origins but that's it.
Thank you for this. This really helps. It also helps that I replayed the games, but I did not know about the information presented to me by the comic books so this will be great for my archives.
This has to be the best story breakdown of the dragon age games and their dlcs out their with simple explanation and not prolonging those explanationa. Thank you :)
@@zaccarter3801 😀 no great loss for elder scrolls really. But i get the point its crazy how long it takes for some of these games. Starfield was 15 years in the making and 6 years development.. god help those waiting for Fallout 5
there are a lot of gaming stories out there that are brilliant and heart captivating, but Dragon Age especially the Origins will always have a special place. Thank you for such a great video ❤
Thank you for that. I am a dragon age fan, but have not kept up with the books, comics, etc. Its nice to have someone explain the other media as well as the games.
I thought I knew everything about this franchise because I played all games and dlcs, but then you enriched it with the books and stories that few players know about. Thank you!
Great recap, thank you! It's easy to forget just how much material there is in this franchise, how much work has gone into it over the years. I've read, watched, or played almost all of it at one point or another, but had forgotten quite a bit. Really nice to have a refresher like this, plus it makes for great listening while I work. Cheers!
Fun fact rys isEvangeline husband from da 2 is Wynn's son the healer mage from dao it pays off to read the books there's a lot of inter story lore. You know of them they are referenced in the ' locate rys and Evangeline " on the war table we find out they survived! And are the two who helped cole (the assassin companion spirit in dai) survive. We find out rys and Evangeline are both very important characters they not only connect dao and dai but also connect mages and nobility as Evangeline is a orleasian noble and rys is in directly connected to rogue mages theough his mothers sect.
Genuine thanks for this. While I played the games and watched the show, i havent been able to read any of the graphic novels or books. Its cool to see old characters pop up in new stories, and characters in the new game already have roots in the story!
Dragon Age is my all time favorite video game series and I had no idea about the comics. Thank you so much for such an incredible video! I had been saving it to watch right before the release today and it was PERFECT!!!
Jackdaw you legend, this was EXACTLY the video I needed, as I haven't played the first two games for years, this was the perfect recap and memory jogger, just what I've waited for. This must have taken so much effort to edit. Good man! 👌
I replayed all three games not long ago but have never had the chance to read the books/comics. So thank you so much for putting this together for us! Really appreciate it. Amazing job.
Playing Inquisition again right now after not having really touched or thought about the Dragon Age series in around 7 years. It’s kind of weird because I’ll vividly remember random scenes as they happen, or random characters here and there, but then completely blank on what seems like pretty obvious lore, story, characters. Great refresher.
You have truly been my #1 source of information for all things Dragon Age for YEARS and I am just so excited that DA: Taylor’s Version (😂) is finally here! Thank you so much for this refresher video, I absolutely grabbed a snack and watched the whole thing like it was an important documentary! There’s just so much lore and information that I didn’t know even after being obsessed with this series for so long! Your work is so valuable to me and I’m so grateful for your channel!
@@JoeBoxerNo1 @ So you assume you know what I think about Veilguard? Assumptions especially without intellect or at least knowledge are for fools. I like the lore and storytelling of previous DA games but my opinion on Veilguard isn’t looking good. Luckily, steam has no questions asked refunds for 2 or less hours of play which is plenty of time to see if it’s crap like it seems to be. As for you.. you should talk less and ask questions more.
I played the games so long ago and I hadnt read any of the novels or comics so this video really helped me so much. Thank you so much for the immense hard work you put into this recap of the lore!
Thanks mate, I had no idea that there was so many tie ins. I played inquisition a while back, it didn't really keep my attention, don't think I finished it. However, TVG has really caught my attention. Thanks again this was a big help and can't wait to dive into TVG.
Yaaaay!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'll wait to watch it until October, but I wanted to say thanks right now. I can't imagine how much work it took to make it, and I'm sure it'll make a world of difference.
Too bad non of that matters. Game and story ruined. If anyone ask this is a side mobile game that has nothing to do with anything. Spent all last game building to the end only to get rid of it almost asap. I replayed all 3 to get ready for this one. I’m glad I did, I enjoyed dragon age. When it was still dragon age.
Holy cow this is amazing, thank you!! Saved me HOURS of reading! (I’ll likely read all the comics and book eventually but now I don’t have to cram it all in before the new game!)
Thank you for this video! I have read some of the comics and played all 3 games but I still appreciated all this: especially Tevinter Nights, which I have been waiting to read but haven't had a chance. Good video!
Second time watching all the way through, really enjoy your breakdown. Especially good to be reacquainted with some of the DLC and other media. Thanks Jackdaw!
Can there be a written guide with footnotes reminding readers about prior mentions to characters throughout the recap. Love this game series to the moon and back but this, as wonderfully detailed as it is, is A LOT.
Oh my stars!! Thank you so so much, Jack. I was just thinking I needed to comb through your channel to understand the story outside the games (from the books) and just to recap. I probably still will, but this is perfect. Thank you for your efforts 🐺🙌🏾!
Dude thanks for this. I never played origins. Started with 2. Best it a dozen times before DAI came out. Logged over 3K hours of DAI but it’s been a while (play a ton of multiplayer tho). Needed this.
That's some thorough research man!! Had to watch it full Played all the games but got lost during your mention of comics and books as there was too much info xD
Imagine the irony.... solas creates the viel to punish the gods for killing mythal. Thousands of years later finds out mythal is alive.... He decides to absorb her essence, so he is strong enough to destroy the viel lol
I just want October to come. I’ve played 2 and Inquisition several times over the years, but I’ll be playing Origins for the first time before Veilguard. So exciting!
Thank you so much for all this work, Jack! It was a great recap and I'm so happy you included all the media tie-ins. I'm making my way through the books but years ago I spoiled myself on basically all of them thinking I won't read them haha. I could enjoy the video in full so that's a plus!
I've been playing these games since 2009 beating all of them several times over . I love diving into the lore they build into these games and even I've learned some things listing to this video. Cheers man your content is gold, great video.
Haven't played the games because i'm a filthy casual, but i was always intrested in the story! Now that the veilguard is more my thing, this has been really helpful!
This was great thank you for the breakdown of the series I had no idea that there were so many novels comics and short stories that coincided with the games.

sammeee, too keen not to! Also definitely trying to playthrough the trilogy again before veilguard comes out
Last game came out 10 years ago lol, we all need the refresher.
It’s been so long since I played 1 and 2 this video was a requirement for me lol. I have the worst memory
Spot on lol. There are some things I don't like about Veilguard but boy oh boy am I beyond excited to be back in Thedas at the end of October!

Justice is busy with Anders 🤔
Yeah I don't get it either. Here's hoping you still get an early review copy, Jackdaw. You deserve it!
Wow seriously? That's total bs honestly. So unfair

solas creates the viel to punish the gods for killing mythal.
Thousands of years later finds out mythal is alive....
He decides to absorb her essence, so he is strong enough to destroy the viel lol
Man can’t believe it’s almost here. I was beginning to lose hope we would never get to continue the adventure.
Let’s Gooooooo!
8 weeks to gooooooooooooo
you must be so dissapointed. This game is on the level of CONCORD and UNKNOWN 9 Failure and dissapointment
i love dragon age but i didnt read the comics so this is must helpful! lovely work! thank you!
picked up veilgaurd a week ago plan on watching this then jumping straight into game thank you
I love this content man
Thank you!!
Oh boy the perfect video for dinner tonight!!!!
I love this! I’ve played the games multiple times but I’ve always been missing the books/comics lore!
I just want October to come. I’ve played 2 and Inquisition several times over the years, but I’ll be playing Origins for the first time before Veilguard. So exciting!
Oh wow! Thank you! 🙌
saving this to watch later closer to the release we have a 2 month wait a head of us
Dang! You’re putting in WORK, Sir!
Just recently beat DAI the other day for the 10th time. Absolutely LOVE these series and so damn stoke for my delux eddition to deliver on Monday! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for all this work, Jack! It was a great recap and I'm so happy you included all the media tie-ins. I'm making my way through the books but years ago I spoiled myself on basically all of them thinking I won't read them haha. I could enjoy the video in full so that's a plus!
after all these years getting a refresher really helps, thanks!
I will play Inquisition before Veilguard tho, as I only played 1&2
This is brilliant
Thank you!!
Thank you for the reminder, its been a while since I've played the three games!
I've been playing these games since 2009 beating all of them several times over . I love diving into the lore they build into these games and even I've learned some things listing to this video. Cheers man your content is gold, great video.
Haven't played the games because i'm a filthy casual, but i was always intrested in the story! Now that the veilguard is more my thing, this has been really helpful!
Thanks for the amount of dedication you put in your work! This video certainly took a lot of time and effort. ❤
Aw thank you so much, that means a lot!
@@JackdawYT You are welcome! I played Dragon Age in 2020 and your channel keeps me updated with the news since then!
This was great thank you for the breakdown of the series I had no idea that there were so many novels comics and short stories that coincided with the games.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I've read all the books in the last 2 months! Finishing "tevinter nights"!!!
Hell yes!! SO CLOSE TO THE FINISH LINE NOW!
I've got exams around the corner, so I guess the perfect time to watch this video.
