Actually recommend to watch Boomsticks Video on Dragon Age Veilguard since its one of the only videos that shows the specs of each class properly, just so you can have more thoughts on that
Just watched it. Amazing preview! It shows so many possibilities for the combat that I caught myself shouting at the screen a couple of times haha. Everyone should watch it, so I'll pin this comment.
Right? I didn't expect THAT kind of voice but it fits him 😂 Actually it's nice that he's not straightforwardly horny like Astarion from BG3. I can feel that he's a sarcastic assassin first, and then a love interest 🔥🤟🏼
I wish I had time to listen to these stories 😭 Could you spoil the main idea for me, please? What happened in that episode that you liked Bellara so much?
@@ImpGooseWell Bellara is intelligent and very kind. She was willing to help Nadia and Drayden(the main characters) because as she said: she also lost a dear person long ago(and it seems she is the one who caused that). She can be very hostile towards humans who don't like elves and she can even threaten to kill them. Her rage moment at the end toward the commander(the antagonist) was so satisfying. Yep she can become very serious if it's needed. Oh and let's not forget that insane ability she used to control the trees of the arlathan forest, she destroyed some templar with that. Really hope she can use it in veilguard. And finally she lost Flicker at the end of the episode(he was as cute as Assan😢) . I really hope there will be a mission in Veilguard to kinda "resurrect" Flicker and I will do everything to help her😌. You should really watch the serie(or listen :D). It's a prequel to Veilguard and Solas is a central figure and he has.... let's say "things" to settle with Nadia, the protagonist.
I really like the feature of sabotaging other party member's relationships. Whether just be a jerk or have one party member all to yourself. My mean girl, bitchy sorceress roleplay will be greatly enhanced by this feature, Honk!!! I'm also with you, like I disagree with their art/aesthetic choices, but I'm also excited and anxious to see how this game with so much talk around will actually be. Stay amazing.
That sounds like a great plan, my friend 💃🏼🎉 I'll definitely try it out too at some point haha. Thanks for your support! It truly means a lot when there's a lot of hate around ❤️ Hope you will enjoy your first playthrough and omg how bad I want to have an early access to CC!!! Honk ✨
Thank you for always being honest Goose! I am also cautiously excited, the new videos by CCs now that the embargo is lifted have got my hopes up a bit more, but I will still wait to hear the first impressions before buying it.
After seeing the backstories for the factions, the Warden in particular you confirming that we can punch them is actually *fantastic*. My Rook is gonna have a hell of a good time haha. As usual, a great video and I look forward to hearing more from you in the future!
@@ImpGoose Very much. It's so nice to have a place to nerd out about all the Dragon Age things, and feel like a community. My husband and I both play as well, and I always love hearing about other couples that do too. He doesn't get quite as excited about the lore as I do, but we have some fun conversations about my favourite content creators and their thoughts. He laughs at me a little bit 🤣
Tnx again for content❤ Was expected a bit more news, but anyway tnx. Was surprised that u will not use different reviews to show smth interested but i respect that choice "Shadow person" is an excellent decision to not showing urself and its looks cool, do not change anything
I don't usually look for the settings to disable special effects, but I have seen this in several games. I imagine if anyone does not like the frequent light shows during battle or travel, there should be something to disable it. I think the game is gorgeous and there is really no need for weapons that glow, but it really doesn't bother me too much. The character creator for the game has stepped up a lot from what we have seen in the past. Really nice work. I might even be able to create a decent Rook by myself and without the need for mods. I also saw we have an option to import characters from other creations? That could helpful. I'm really surprised we've seen this much content to date. We still have over a week for this month and then a full month to go. Hopefully we'll keep getting bits to chew on until release day.
Yeah, everything looks good to give this game a chance. I wonder if they will show us even more... because for now it feels enough already, but as you said... We still have plenty of time before the release
WE SEE YOU! This is cool suprise! And I do not mind to not seeing your face, I like mystery. :D I will def play the game. Not hyped or anything, I just want to play it.
…hey! Does anyone else see a human behind that Goose? 😂 I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself! If I wasn’t all in on Veilguard, your nod to Skill Up would have sold me. He has a reputation of not being bought, so I do trust his opinions. Other people I saw? Kala Elizabeth. Luke Stephens (he was super cautious but was impressed!). Mr. Matty. So on so forth. All told, I’m actually excited myself. It finally happened! I definitely hope Dragon Age isn’t coming to an end. If it is, I certainly hope they do a new series in the same universe (Andromeda done right!). There’s plenty of things outside Thedas we haven’t seen yet. I’m happy seeing you step out of your comfort zone, honestly! Be it just your voice or your silhouette I’m happy to see your content! As for seeing you on camera…? 🤔 I’d say that’s a decision you’d need to make for yourself. ‘We do what we wanna do. If they consider that selling out, whatever.’ -Cliff Burton (Metallica’s bass player, 1982-1986 R.I.P.)
Haha, that's funny, no worries 🤣 Thanks for your support. I'm still thinking about the full face reveal and doing that shadow-podcast was something new to experience! I watched Luke too. Knowing how critical he can be sometimes, his words gave me more confidence that the game will be good. Can't wait to play DAV 🔥🤟🏼 It's coming, my friend!!!
Personally I am really chill about it. Change can be good, but overall it’s always been about the Elven Lore for me. I already requested a full week off from work just to play this game come what may. Thank you for posting such calm and informative content. Dareth Shiral
Mysterious silhouette... So far the reviews seem to confirm everything that I have suspected since the very first trailer, it's just not for me. I am sure it's at least a solid game, I will play it for the story if nothing else, but I doubt I will continue following the series since it seems they have choose a more streamlined, action, mass appeal direction that I am personally not very interested in as a more classic cRPG fan. Can't wait to play it though.
I understand what you mean 🔥🤟🏼 Tbh I have a feeling that it's the last game in a series and they will launch something different in this universe after DAV
The best stories are the ones that hook you with a need to know what happens next & can make you truly care about it's characters, even when you don't relate to them. This is what Dragon Age has excelled at so it makes me happy that trend will likely continue. The rest is just a matter of preference, really. (For me, anyway.) As for MY preferences... Character art & design - Bad. Especially Assan & the Qunari. Truly cringe inducing. I'm not as sold on the character creator as most folks either. If you don't have an age or complexion setting, letting me play with my bulge size isn't going to impress me. Environmental art & design - Excellent. Particularly in the variety of it's mood & locations. If the entire world is a post apocalyptic hellscape why would you fight to preserve it? Combat - I've played enough action games to know I'll have fun with this. I had fun with the combo/detonator system in Mass Effect so that's a plus for me. Still, all those spell effects are gonna cause a serious spike in seizure calls to emergency services. Trust me. The fact that all classes have long & close range attacks as well as weapon switching on the fly could be a big plus or just a big change. We'll see, I guess. Will I be buying this game? Hell yeah. I'm actually optimistic now. I don't expect perfection, but I do want compelling. So far, it seems I just might get it.
I'm very excited to play DAV. It's going to be worth the wait I'm sure. I agree that combat looks reminiscent of DA2. I've accepted that we'll never go back to Origins gameplay now, times have moved on. Yu Suzuki tried to go back in time with Shenmue 3 but it had a very mixed reception. Purists loved it for the nostalgia kick, but it alienated newer players I think.
Thought Skill Up's review was encouraging, but he did say that he could never get into the other three games which might cause someone who enjoyed the earlier games to hesitate a bit. In one sense he was saying he liked it, because it wasn't like the other games.
@@ImpGoose Yes, but. He also said he could never get into any of the Dragon Age games. I trust him when he says it is a good game, but I'm not at all sure that we like the same things.
Actually, I just realized that when I see you on the screen, I like your voice even more for some reason☺ Maybe it's the mic, maybe my "visualism",Idk. anyway, I'm glad you decided to show up to us and I appreciate your courage, hey! and your name is so sweet, aw☺ Also, I already think that Bellara would be my favorite, because she has so much energy and enthusiasm that I lack in life, she's like a spark for me)) and adhd ofc, I hope she can help me a bit with that like she helped Epler😁 but yeah, I think Lucanis will be our common mass disaster in the community, hehe
Haha, thanks for your kind words 🥰 The mic makes wonders! Glad to know that you will enjoy her company. I remember that Sera from DAI was hated a lot for kinda similar reason/vibe. Though, she was one of my favourites and her banter made me die with laughter. I hope that Bellara will be something like that to you and give you many positive moments! Lucanis...oh god, I can write poems about him. I already decided to romance Emmrich. Why are they doing this to us? 🤣
@@ImpGoose ohh Emmrich is so smooth, I just can stand... I think he would be my number 2 or even 1. Also Neve doing smth to me. And Harding, my little sweetie pie))) I also remembered this Astarion's line from BG3 EA, "Spite made me who I am", and it gave Lucanis +100 point immediately for me 😁 I don't feel Bellara so similar to Sera, because I see her like a smart geek and curious fidget, just with some awkward energy due to neurodivirgence. Sera, in turn, doesn’t give a damn shit about most things, she is straightforward and very stubborn. but I understand why some people love her. she prefers to see the world simpler than it is, but it's not for me) I'm Solamancer after all, I don't know the word "simple"))) they do what they do best - take our hearts...(and maybe break them into thousands of pieces, but it's optional)😂
Side silhouette is unique, I like unique. Bonus points there Goose. I hate to constantly sound like a Debbie Downer but did Bioware add extra expenses to UA-camrs who mentioned "Hair mechanics" as dang alot of them went on a while about it. Maybe cause I've got a mohawk and only saw like 2 options for that I'm salty. 😂 After seeing some clips the Party in my head still hasn't changed Lucanis and Emmerich, I think would be banter/snark gold and quite the duo gameplay/mechanically speaking. Keep up the good work luv.
Thanks 🥰 Well, to be fair...hair is gorgeous haha. Though it's expected that most hairstyles are unisex. Sad to hear that you found only two that you would prefer. I hope it won't ruin much of your playthrough haha
@@ImpGoose nah, cosmetics don't mean alot to me. Role Playing Game after all, can just say I got transported to another world and the hairdresser decided she didn't like my "Earth" look or something to that effect. Is strange though, would have thought a little bit of a mohawk would have been on the easier side of hairstyles to just slap in the game. Guess going for plaits, oh how the missus will mock me. (She's been threatening to plait my hair for a while) 🤣
I feel better about the game for sure now that I am seeing more of it and hearing peoples reactions to it. Will it be on the level of BG3 for me, probably not, but it looks fun enough to take a chance on.
True. Fo me personally, BG3 is an untouchable perfection even with bugs. DAV looks fun and polished enough to give it a try. It will be a good game. Not perfect maybe, but good 😏
Looking good, Goose! I'm sure next step in your youtuber's career will be just as elegant and classy, as everything that came before. Beams of support 🤗 As for subject of the day, after watching new videos from journalists and few trustworthy youtubers, who usually don't pull any punches when it comes to reviews, I feel relief and glad to be wrong in my initial assessment of the game. That cursed first trailer and lackluster following marketing dropped red flags everywhere, but latest development put record strait. Like this won't be buggy mess as Andromeda, because pretty much everyone and their mother confirmed game runs smoothly for hours and looks surprisingly polished for modern AAA product. Giving reviewers six-seven hours of play shows unprecedented believe in their product, because if it was in any way unstable, it would show. Character creator looks amazing, I probably gonna spent unreasonable amount of time playing with all those sliders and morphs. Story and branching narrative is super developed, one guy made several reloads of certain quests to choose different options and saw consequences almost immediately, some of which include dooming a city or lives of NPC, and this is just first act of the game. Not to mention, few reviewers said first act feels like it could have been the game, and we have three of them with second act being specifically about consequences of our decisions. It reminds me of Inquisition, where you thought you gonna deal with Bridge, and it's done in first act. Makes you wonder if in here Ghill and Elgarnan will be red haring and we will return to Solas as main antagonist after 🤔 Either way, this is awesome, I adore when games put that kind of cause and effect into narrative and already sure I'm gonna make multiple runs to see them all. They nailed balance between open exploration and focus, giving Origins approach to progression, which in my opinion was the best in this regard. We set for lore and fanservice, having Inky with new fashionable clothes and fancy prosthetic arm, and get to play chunks of the game as Solas in ancient times. I love everything about it, even if I had to quickly click away from certain video, where Solas was about to talk to Ghill, because it is smth I want to experience myself. This is probably the only bad thing I see in a flood of new information - spoilers are everywhere 😵💫 And art style is all over the place, environments go for hyperrealism swinging from horror to fairy tale high fantasy, people look a bit disproportionate. I think they could have benefited from unified stylization, but now is too late, we'll have to get use to it. In general I'm on board, right now I feel the hype I wanted to feel at initial reveal and can't wait to put my teeth into this game. Also, curious what are they going to do for next month? They already shown pretty much everything they could without stepping into game breaking spoilers territory. It could go in one of two ways - starving interns will strike again and leak some end game shit, or we could get playable CC demo, which will be beyond cool. Dunno, from now on I'm kinda weary about going into fandom spaces, because there is such thing as too much information. Anyway, this is my two cents 😉
I love all your cents 🤩 Thanks for the support! I wonder if UA-cam has an elegant lore gamer as a concept haha. If not, well...I guess we have an idea to explore. True, they showed enough already. The preview finalised the campaign for me. Moreover, most of my concerns faded away and...well, the visuals are here to remain so there's no other way to accept it. Otherwise, we'll become masochists 🤣 Tbh I think they should give us access to CC. It will consume us for a whole month, considering that you can save your presets... it's pretty logical. But let's not get too excited. Those are just dreams 😅
@@ImpGoose if it doesn't, you can coin the term and make it your own personal thing, not to shabby 😏 I think they should release CC demo too, because without it it would be just rehashing of everything reviewed before, which can become stale and boring super fast. I mean, they dropped huge infodumps every week for past two months, and usually by the end of third-forth day it already chewed up to the bone by dozens of content creators with nothing new left to say. Also, if we can pre-create our avatars before launch, we could dive right into action without wasting hours tweaking shape of the nose in different lighting 🤣
Mystery Goose 😅🙈🤣 good video as always and in regards to this channel - do what you feel is best for you, your mental health and physical health I enjoy your videos as they provide a balanced view lol 😂 today I’ve watched big shills and people who aren’t happy 😅🙈🤣 I honestly think Taash will be my least fave companion
Thank you so much ❤️ I'll do a series of it! I want to try streaming as it will challenge and level up my English haha. But if it will be too hard , I'll just pre-record a usual "let's play"
I would advice you to not show yourself and I'm not saying this because I think you're ugly or anything like that I'm saying this because people on social media can be mean or disrespectful especially with women and because I think it's always a good idea to mantain your privacy. you don't need to show yourself to make good content for instance I'm perfectly fine with what you did until now. About the game sorry but I find your observations a bit exagerated I don't think the game will hurt anybody eyes and the world being noisy is a very strange remark and you can change the volume level of the sound effects if they disturb you.
That's thoughtful advice, thank you 😊 Noisy is the word that my husband used to refer to the picture or visual frame. Well...He actually called it "clusterf**k" haha but I chose a more polite word. That's the thing that I heard in the review: even if you turn off most of the effects, the game is still heavily saturated with glowing and flashes
@@ImpGoose We will see if he's right but I remember the first time I saw Inquisition combat I had the same impression since it was different from the previous games then I played it and I loved it to this day it's my favourite DA game I reinstalled it a couple of months ago and it's still on my pc. I must say I would have preferred a game that looked more like Inquisition but it's not the first time they make changes we will see. One thing is certain I will play this game and I'm convinced it will be a good game maybe not a masterpiece but it's strange many people want only masterpieces from Bioware otherwise the games are crap while they are prefectly fine with average games from other developers so those other games sell and Bioware games are crushed. It's absolutely unfair and stupid they did that to Mass Effect Andromeda which is not at the level of the trilogy but it's a perfectly fine game way better than games like Starfield or Jedi Fallen Order or hundreds of other games which selled fine (well maybe not Starfield lol). So I hope people will mantain an open mind and will judge the game for what it is not in comparison with the previous games.
I find Wolf Heart video was the most honest to the issues I can’t get over. While the others including Shill Up videos editor glazed it more than I think it deserves. While nothing they said seems dishonest, wolf heart is the only one who seemed to be willing to call out any of the issues.
Yeah, he was the first who I watched. If we look critically at his video, there was more about his personal preferences than about informing which is absolutely valid from his pov. He's a gamer, not a journalist. Therefore he gathers people with similar tastes for games. Glowing is everywhere, no secrets seem hidden and items can glow too. It's the same issue that my husband has. However it's strictly visual and as I said, I don't like to repeat myself. We've talked enough about the visuals and art style to form an opinion.
@@ImpGoose yes, the issues called out where the hub,mobile UI, and the art style. As you said he focused on the gameplay side and how it felt to play it. The game under all that cluttered mess sounds like it can be fun if you can ignore the heavy gamified things like awkward transitions and other such things. Which as the first person stated different taste for different folks or I say different tolerance level for amateur game design as experienced teams would want to hide those things better to avoid breaking emersion. All in all, it sounds like to some people it will be a 8/10 and others 6/10, just depends on how much you can ignore the those things. I almost never use mods but yes I will sure be moding cause I can’t stand the Hub, UX/UI, or the designs all of which are things I know a mod can correct. I am mostly just disappointed that I know I will have to do so just to enjoy the game that 10 years ago I don’t feel those issues would have been there.
Aww you should totally show your face friend! At first I was like oh crap its the girl from the ring crawled up out of the well and is speaking with gooses voice! I just think whenever your comfortable you should do it, we will all still be here listening to you making videos no matter what. 💯😆🫠🙂↕️
Hahaha, I should've thought that it could possibly scare people. I'm so sorry if The Ring reference made you flinch. Well, as a newbie I learn every day. Thanks for your support, my dear! ✨❤️
@@ImpGoose you should cut yourself some slack. Lol your videos are my favorite by far on dragon age and I follow everything on the topic. Plus you do all of this in a different language than your native tongue which is super impressive. Americans tend to butcher other languages when we try to speak it lol. So I tend to use tech to translate so I don't offend anyone 😅😓😵
That's usually up to us. Like my Warden and Hawke was mostly witty, while my Inquisitor was mostly serious with a little bit of humor mixed in. I rarely ever go for a nasty/rude character.
Based on what I've seen, I'm so excited for this game! MASSIVE SPOILERS: did you see the cutscene showing a young Solas trying to convince a young Ghilan'nain? Solas had hair!! Another MASSIVE SPOILERS: Solas said that the Evanuris resorted to blight magic when Solas rebelled. That's really interesting, I wonder what stance Mythal took...
I haven't and I'll avoid it as long as I can, so that my jaw can drop when I play haha. Though...I have a draft video for Solas and Ghil having a relationship...I guess that's what I'm posting this weekend
Every game has demo/early access/beta nowadays. This build for influencers can be stripped of some spoilery things and be released as a demo. People can start origin quests to choose favourite companions, look at skilltree and start theorycrafting. They already spoiled enough with trailers so few more doesnt hurt if the game has 40 sliders of endings, so whats up? Instead we rely on previews from mostly paid trips. I can tell when people are excited for the game and these people looked liked they have seen a ghost
SkillUp paid for himself, that's why I listen to him and trust his judgement. Still, it doesn't mean he's right. We are all different and I'm sure many will find the game boring or nonsensical. It's life 😅
Well, it's open minded of you to judge a person based on one phrase without understanding the context in the community on this channel so... 🤣 You see what you want to see
@@ImpGoose oh i watched your theory video on bellara’s ookie spookie triangles! how creepy, the fadejumper is covered in symbols that represent the veil. you claim to be mostly well versed in inquisition lore, but don’t even know that the triangles were used in Solas’ murals to represent the physicality of the veil. you’re coming at Dragon Age with a Disney-informed outlook of character design. i understand not liking a character at first glance, i don’t very well like Lucanis so far. but to say that “there are plenty of other companions to choose from” before you’ve even seen her in the game is wild.
Yeah, he was the first who I watched. If we look critically at his video, there was more about his personal preferences than about informing which is absolutely valid from his pov. He's a gamer, not a journalist. Therefore he gathers people with similar tastes for games. Glowing is everywhere, no secrets seem hidden and items can glow too. It's the same issue that my husband has. However it's strictly visual and as I said, I don't like to repeat myself. We've talked enough about the visuals and art style to form an opinion 😏
No, "top surgical scars" is not a "praiseworthy customization option". It's pandering. You are in a world where you can literally transmute to another animal that is COMPLETELY different in anatomical structure. You regenerate lost limbs. YOU DON'T GET "BREAST REMOVAL SCARS" in this world. Qunaris and elves have been perversed, mostly having features of a black IRL person, and the 100% slider for breast and butt is unrealistically very small. The game has low-budget animations as well. And the "reports" you're referring to are of coursed biased and "sanitized".
I also watched Asmongold, though it doesn't mean that he is right about everything. Top surgical scars weren't made for us or for the fantasy aspect. We share this game with different people who relate to different things. If you refuse to accept that there are as many world states and realities as people, that's a choice. Nothing that is made by other people will bend to the will or taste of one person. You can control only your reality and your life, I hope you understand that
@@ImpGoose You're missing my point. And no, I didn't specifically refer to Asmongold. I LOVE the DA universe, and the utter disrespect for the lore for the sake of pandering is obvious. We do share it with different people, but that doesn't mean you need to pander to everyone. If we are, then let's be genuine about it and have the character creator include down syndrome defects, small hands defects, and each and every spectrum possible. I do not mind inclusivity. But in this game, it's OBVIOUSLY done to score points, since it only "includes" a specific set of people. And yes, noone should be demanded to bend to anyone's taste. To that point, I will not be buying this game because it disrespect DAO's world in A LOT of ways. It's not grounded to the DA world AT ALL. It's made primarily for checkboxes. You too, in your naivety, will find that the "woke"/alphabet mob is smaller than you think. By thinking that appealing to the minority, your channel will grow better and faster, you set yourself up for downfall. You do not genuinely support this "cause" or demographic. You're simply pandering, and your hollow words with no substantial logic that is backed by non-parroted words ring hollow. Pandering to the loud minority is not going to get you growth. Remember that the empty can is louder than the one that's full.
Well, I guess it's nice to feel confident and knowledgeable to suggest that you know everyone's traits, lives, and motivations. The very same way, it doesn't make it true as there are many realities. It's a simple and understandable world you painted. It is comfortable for identifying your surroundings with IFF scan. If you enjoy living in this reality, that's your choice. Please, be respectful and don't drag anyone after you especially when you know nothing about these people.
@@ImpGoose I know for a fact that every human being deserves equal amounts of respect, courtesy, and choice regardless of race, gender, OR status. Statistically, ~1% or disabled in a way that deters normal everyday functions. But do they demand that all stairs be replaced with ramps? Now think VERY CAREFULLY why. Because they are the minority, correct? Now ~95% of the world are heterosexuals. Why in the world do you think that transitioners who had their breasts removed can get representition, and people with down syndrome do not? Why do you not respect them and instead drag people whose life you know absolutely nothing about? What makes YOU think you have the moral capacity and highground to dictate what is and what is not right, or what can be and cannot be represented? The world is governed by rules and laws that is designed to instill as much order as possible. You want subjectivity ingrained into these rules, and your naivety gets in the way of seeing the bigger picture. You are idealistic, and I sincerely pray you grow to understand how the world works REALISTICALLY.
Okay, I hope this isn't unwelcome, but now that I've seen you I'm gonna tell you your vibe--it's "friendly but introverted Scandinavian you'd trust to watch your drink at a club." 🍻 Since you mentioned pronunciation help, I've got you! A couple of things I noticed: contrary to what you'd expect, review is most properly said as "ree-VYU" and companion as "com-PAN-yun." I'll try to catch a stream to see if I find more. I love that you want to keep improving, I feel the same about my Dutch, but you're doing very well already. Keep up the great work!
I'll gladly guard all your drinks with my life hahaha. Let's form...The PINTGUARD! 🍺 I sound like a dwarf now lmao Thanks for your tips! Fighting muscle memory is tough but I'll do my best 🥰 Good luck with you Dutch!!!
Hello my dear Goose, first and foremost, do what you feel most comfortable with doing. I know it may sound strange hearing this come from me, but I have the exact same fears or discomfort about showing myself on camera as you do. I didn't feel I had enough presents to be entertaining or do I really feel positive about my looks. I'm always do the thing that scares me most. I began to realize I grew more comfortable, seeing myself on camera as time went on. I absolutely agree with you about all the icons and numbers on the screen. I do believe we can turn all those things off in the settings. Outside of that, I have zero complaints. I'm so excited we are gonna have so much fun playing this game. Excellent video as always, my friend. Whatever you decide to do in the future, know that... this is the way and we will follow. 🥰🙏🏾💚🪿
Hiii!🥰 Oh, you are always such a sweet person, I'm so lucky to have you as a friend and fellow-creator who can share the experience! BG3 taught me the wisdom of life, "The only way out is through!" 🤣 What will come out of this experiment I have no idea, but at least I'll learn about this side of gaming. Thanks for your kind words and support ❤️💜❤️💜 Can't wait to play the game and see how many things can be turned off haha
@ImpGoose You are absolutely welcome, my dear friend. Let's say we're equally as lucky to find each other's friendship. OMG, BG3 drops a plethora of knowledge bombs. I support you. 🤣🙌🏾 Oh yes, I can't wait to see what we can do with this game. October 31st just can't get here fast enough. You're welcome Goose. 🥰🙏🏾💚🪿
like this vlog style a lot, very mysterious and good room lighting too. My nitpick of character creator the butt slider at max setting is so small. I thought my Rook could have baker's dozen of cake, not cupcakes damn lol. vanilla DAO on pc I've heard isnt playable. some bugs bioware never patched can stop progression so you need certain mod that fixes it sadly.
Thanks! And you're so right regarding the slider. Moreover their backside looks flat as if characters don't run and jump all the time, but sit in the office for 12 hours daily 😅 Well, the minimal amount of mods then!
Actually recommend to watch Boomsticks Video on Dragon Age Veilguard since its one of the only videos that shows the specs of each class properly, just so you can have more thoughts on that
Yeah it's extremely good!
Oh, I haven't heard about this channel. Thanks for recommending it!
@@ImpGoose You're welcome, its properly called Boomstick Gaming, just so you can find it easier
@@stefdelev yeah definitely, it actually washed away most of my fears for combat personally
Just watched it. Amazing preview! It shows so many possibilities for the combat that I caught myself shouting at the screen a couple of times haha. Everyone should watch it, so I'll pin this comment.
Stay authentic and independent from access media. This is why we like you, goose. Don’t change 😊
Aw 🥰
Lucanis voice:
What I expected: **sexy and tough Antivan, a deadly assassin.**
What I got: 6:19 "Yu😛 kol😯 det 🤨nays😗 end kuait🤨?" - silly assassin boi
that woke up fade spirits 2 blocks away 😂
This! When I hear his voice, something just tells me I'm gonna enjoy my time with him. 😂
@@ratarakishika854Same! Omg I can’t wait to romance him.
Same! But I love his voice so much, it fits him like a glove :D
Right? I didn't expect THAT kind of voice but it fits him 😂 Actually it's nice that he's not straightforwardly horny like Astarion from BG3. I can feel that he's a sarcastic assassin first, and then a love interest 🔥🤟🏼
After Bellara's eposode in Vows and Vengeance, I am now ready to die for her🌹
I wish I had time to listen to these stories 😭 Could you spoil the main idea for me, please? What happened in that episode that you liked Bellara so much?
@@ImpGooseWell Bellara is intelligent and very kind. She was willing to help Nadia and Drayden(the main characters) because as she said: she also lost a dear person long ago(and it seems she is the one who caused that). She can be very hostile towards humans who don't like elves and she can even threaten to kill them. Her rage moment at the end toward the commander(the antagonist) was so satisfying. Yep she can become very serious if it's needed. Oh and let's not forget that insane ability she used to control the trees of the arlathan forest, she destroyed some templar with that. Really hope she can use it in veilguard. And finally she lost Flicker at the end of the episode(he was as cute as Assan😢) . I really hope there will be a mission in Veilguard to kinda "resurrect" Flicker and I will do everything to help her😌.
You should really watch the serie(or listen :D). It's a prequel to Veilguard and Solas is a central figure and he has.... let's say "things" to settle with Nadia, the protagonist.
Agreed, I really liked her in that episode👍
I really like the feature of sabotaging other party member's relationships. Whether just be a jerk or have one party member all to yourself. My mean girl, bitchy sorceress roleplay will be greatly enhanced by this feature, Honk!!! I'm also with you, like I disagree with their art/aesthetic choices, but I'm also excited and anxious to see how this game with so much talk around will actually be. Stay amazing.
That sounds like a great plan, my friend 💃🏼🎉 I'll definitely try it out too at some point haha. Thanks for your support! It truly means a lot when there's a lot of hate around ❤️ Hope you will enjoy your first playthrough and omg how bad I want to have an early access to CC!!! Honk ✨
Thank you for always being honest Goose! I am also cautiously excited, the new videos by CCs now that the embargo is lifted have got my hopes up a bit more, but I will still wait to hear the first impressions before buying it.
My pleasure! Hopefully, there will be more honest things to say. I appreciate your support, thank you ❤️
After seeing the backstories for the factions, the Warden in particular you confirming that we can punch them is actually *fantastic*. My Rook is gonna have a hell of a good time haha.
As usual, a great video and I look forward to hearing more from you in the future!
I so LOVE your videos. Appreciate your opinions and content!!
Glad you like them and find useful ❤️🥰
@@ImpGoose Very much. It's so nice to have a place to nerd out about all the Dragon Age things, and feel like a community. My husband and I both play as well, and I always love hearing about other couples that do too. He doesn't get quite as excited about the lore as I do, but we have some fun conversations about my favourite content creators and their thoughts. He laughs at me a little bit 🤣
I'm super hyped for the game. Really glad they held this event so we could get all the glimpse of it.
Yeah, this feels good after a bumpy marketing campaign! Can't wait to play DAV 🤟🏼🔥
Tnx again for content❤
Was expected a bit more news, but anyway tnx. Was surprised that u will not use different reviews to show smth interested but i respect that choice
"Shadow person" is an excellent decision to not showing urself and its looks cool, do not change anything
good to see you!!! looking forward to more
🥰💃🏼
I've seen enough of Veilguard to know I'll be playing it. I'll wait for the reviews just to see if it's worth full AAA price, or if I'll wait.
Bellara is my favorite so far! Don’t break my heart like that. 🤣 💔 Lucanis seems pretty great, though. 😉
Sorry 😭🤣 She's a bit loud with her positivity for my old, grumpy soul hahaha
I don't usually look for the settings to disable special effects, but I have seen this in several games. I imagine if anyone does not like the frequent light shows during battle or travel, there should be something to disable it. I think the game is gorgeous and there is really no need for weapons that glow, but it really doesn't bother me too much.
The character creator for the game has stepped up a lot from what we have seen in the past. Really nice work. I might even be able to create a decent Rook by myself and without the need for mods. I also saw we have an option to import characters from other creations? That could helpful.
I'm really surprised we've seen this much content to date. We still have over a week for this month and then a full month to go. Hopefully we'll keep getting bits to chew on until release day.
Yeah, everything looks good to give this game a chance. I wonder if they will show us even more... because for now it feels enough already, but as you said... We still have plenty of time before the release
WE SEE YOU! This is cool suprise! And I do not mind to not seeing your face, I like mystery. :D I will def play the game. Not hyped or anything, I just want to play it.
…hey! Does anyone else see a human behind that Goose? 😂
I’m sorry, I couldn’t help myself!
If I wasn’t all in on Veilguard, your nod to Skill Up would have sold me. He has a reputation of not being bought, so I do trust his opinions. Other people I saw? Kala Elizabeth. Luke Stephens (he was super cautious but was impressed!). Mr. Matty. So on so forth. All told, I’m actually excited myself. It finally happened!
I definitely hope Dragon Age isn’t coming to an end. If it is, I certainly hope they do a new series in the same universe (Andromeda done right!). There’s plenty of things outside Thedas we haven’t seen yet.
I’m happy seeing you step out of your comfort zone, honestly! Be it just your voice or your silhouette I’m happy to see your content!
As for seeing you on camera…? 🤔 I’d say that’s a decision you’d need to make for yourself.

Haha, that's funny, no worries 🤣 Thanks for your support. I'm still thinking about the full face reveal and doing that shadow-podcast was something new to experience!
I watched Luke too. Knowing how critical he can be sometimes, his words gave me more confidence that the game will be good.
Can't wait to play DAV 🔥🤟🏼 It's coming, my friend!!!
Personally I am really chill about it. Change can be good, but overall it’s always been about the Elven Lore for me.
I already requested a full week off from work just to play this game come what may.
Thank you for posting such calm and informative content.

Elven lore is what keeps most of us lore lovers up at night haha. Thanks for your support!
Mysterious silhouette... So far the reviews seem to confirm everything that I have suspected since the very first trailer, it's just not for me. I am sure it's at least a solid game, I will play it for the story if nothing else, but I doubt I will continue following the series since it seems they have choose a more streamlined, action, mass appeal direction that I am personally not very interested in as a more classic cRPG fan. Can't wait to play it though.
I understand what you mean 🔥🤟🏼 Tbh I have a feeling that it's the last game in a series and they will launch something different in this universe after DAV
The best stories are the ones that hook you with a need to know what happens next & can make you truly care about it's characters, even when you don't relate to them. This is what Dragon Age has excelled at so it makes me happy that trend will likely continue. The rest is just a matter of preference, really. (For me, anyway.)
As for MY preferences...
Character art & design - Bad. Especially Assan & the Qunari. Truly cringe inducing. I'm not as sold on the character creator as most folks either. If you don't have an age or complexion setting, letting me play with my bulge size isn't going to impress me.
Environmental art & design - Excellent. Particularly in the variety of it's mood & locations. If the entire world is a post apocalyptic hellscape why would you fight to preserve it?
Combat - I've played enough action games to know I'll have fun with this. I had fun with the combo/detonator system in Mass Effect so that's a plus for me. Still, all those spell effects are gonna cause a serious spike in seizure calls to emergency services. Trust me. The fact that all classes have long & close range attacks as well as weapon switching on the fly could be a big plus or just a big change. We'll see, I guess.
Will I be buying this game? Hell yeah. I'm actually optimistic now. I don't expect perfection, but I do want compelling. So far, it seems I just might get it.
Real excited to hear more Veilguard details from someone in the Witness Protection Program (I'm joking!)
That was funny 🤣
I'm very excited to play DAV. It's going to be worth the wait I'm sure. I agree that combat looks reminiscent of DA2. I've accepted that we'll never go back to Origins gameplay now, times have moved on. Yu Suzuki tried to go back in time with Shenmue 3 but it had a very mixed reception. Purists loved it for the nostalgia kick, but it alienated newer players I think.
Thought Skill Up's review was encouraging, but he did say that he could never get into the other three games which might cause someone who enjoyed the earlier games to hesitate a bit. In one sense he was saying he liked it, because it wasn't like the other games.
That's one of the reasons why I trust him more tbh. If he wasn't okay with DAI but liked this one...well, it speaks volumes
@@ImpGoose Yes, but. He also said he could never get into any of the Dragon Age games. I trust him when he says it is a good game, but I'm not at all sure that we like the same things.
Actually, I just realized that when I see you on the screen, I like your voice even more for some reason☺ Maybe it's the mic, maybe my "visualism",Idk. anyway, I'm glad you decided to show up to us and I appreciate your courage, hey! and your name is so sweet, aw☺
Also, I already think that Bellara would be my favorite, because she has so much energy and enthusiasm that I lack in life, she's like a spark for me)) and adhd ofc, I hope she can help me a bit with that like she helped Epler😁
but yeah, I think Lucanis will be our common mass disaster in the community, hehe
Haha, thanks for your kind words 🥰 The mic makes wonders!
Glad to know that you will enjoy her company. I remember that Sera from DAI was hated a lot for kinda similar reason/vibe. Though, she was one of my favourites and her banter made me die with laughter. I hope that Bellara will be something like that to you and give you many positive moments!
Lucanis...oh god, I can write poems about him. I already decided to romance Emmrich. Why are they doing this to us? 🤣
@@ImpGoose ohh Emmrich is so smooth, I just can stand... I think he would be my number 2 or even 1. Also Neve doing smth to me. And Harding, my little sweetie pie)))
I also remembered this Astarion's line from BG3 EA, "Spite made me who I am", and it gave Lucanis +100 point immediately for me 😁
I don't feel Bellara so similar to Sera, because I see her like a smart geek and curious fidget, just with some awkward energy due to neurodivirgence. Sera, in turn, doesn’t give a damn shit about most things, she is straightforward and very stubborn. but I understand why some people love her. she prefers to see the world simpler than it is, but it's not for me) I'm Solamancer after all, I don't know the word "simple")))
they do what they do best - take our hearts...(and maybe break them into thousands of pieces, but it's optional)😂
That's not an avian silhouette, who are you and what have you done with the goose?
ENCHANTMENT ✨ hahaha
Too flashy. Agreed totally.
Side silhouette is unique, I like unique.
Bonus points there Goose.
I hate to constantly sound like a Debbie Downer but did Bioware add extra expenses to UA-camrs who mentioned "Hair mechanics" as dang alot of them went on a while about it.
Maybe cause I've got a mohawk and only saw like 2 options for that I'm salty. 😂
After seeing some clips the Party in my head still hasn't changed Lucanis and Emmerich, I think would be banter/snark gold and quite the duo gameplay/mechanically speaking.
Keep up the good work luv.
Thanks 🥰 Well, to be fair...hair is gorgeous haha. Though it's expected that most hairstyles are unisex. Sad to hear that you found only two that you would prefer. I hope it won't ruin much of your playthrough haha
@@ImpGoose nah, cosmetics don't mean alot to me.
Role Playing Game after all, can just say I got transported to another world and the hairdresser decided she didn't like my "Earth" look or something to that effect.
Is strange though, would have thought a little bit of a mohawk would have been on the easier side of hairstyles to just slap in the game. Guess going for plaits, oh how the missus will mock me. (She's been threatening to plait my hair for a while)
🤣
Protect your boundaries!!! Hair is everything! 🤣🤣🤣
I'm excited
🥳🎉
I feel better about the game for sure now that I am seeing more of it and hearing peoples reactions to it. Will it be on the level of BG3 for me, probably not, but it looks fun enough to take a chance on.
True. Fo me personally, BG3 is an untouchable perfection even with bugs. DAV looks fun and polished enough to give it a try. It will be a good game. Not perfect maybe, but good 😏
Looking good, Goose! I'm sure next step in your youtuber's career will be just as elegant and classy, as everything that came before. Beams of support 🤗
As for subject of the day, after watching new videos from journalists and few trustworthy youtubers, who usually don't pull any punches when it comes to reviews, I feel relief and glad to be wrong in my initial assessment of the game. That cursed first trailer and lackluster following marketing dropped red flags everywhere, but latest development put record strait.
Like this won't be buggy mess as Andromeda, because pretty much everyone and their mother confirmed game runs smoothly for hours and looks surprisingly polished for modern AAA product. Giving reviewers six-seven hours of play shows unprecedented believe in their product, because if it was in any way unstable, it would show. Character creator looks amazing, I probably gonna spent unreasonable amount of time playing with all those sliders and morphs. Story and branching narrative is super developed, one guy made several reloads of certain quests to choose different options and saw consequences almost immediately, some of which include dooming a city or lives of NPC, and this is just first act of the game. Not to mention, few reviewers said first act feels like it could have been the game, and we have three of them with second act being specifically about consequences of our decisions. It reminds me of Inquisition, where you thought you gonna deal with Bridge, and it's done in first act. Makes you wonder if in here Ghill and Elgarnan will be red haring and we will return to Solas as main antagonist after 🤔 Either way, this is awesome, I adore when games put that kind of cause and effect into narrative and already sure I'm gonna make multiple runs to see them all. They nailed balance between open exploration and focus, giving Origins approach to progression, which in my opinion was the best in this regard. We set for lore and fanservice, having Inky with new fashionable clothes and fancy prosthetic arm, and get to play chunks of the game as Solas in ancient times. I love everything about it, even if I had to quickly click away from certain video, where Solas was about to talk to Ghill, because it is smth I want to experience myself. This is probably the only bad thing I see in a flood of new information - spoilers are everywhere 😵💫 And art style is all over the place, environments go for hyperrealism swinging from horror to fairy tale high fantasy, people look a bit disproportionate. I think they could have benefited from unified stylization, but now is too late, we'll have to get use to it.
In general I'm on board, right now I feel the hype I wanted to feel at initial reveal and can't wait to put my teeth into this game. Also, curious what are they going to do for next month? They already shown pretty much everything they could without stepping into game breaking spoilers territory. It could go in one of two ways - starving interns will strike again and leak some end game shit, or we could get playable CC demo, which will be beyond cool. Dunno, from now on I'm kinda weary about going into fandom spaces, because there is such thing as too much information.
Anyway, this is my two cents 😉
I love all your cents 🤩 Thanks for the support! I wonder if UA-cam has an elegant lore gamer as a concept haha. If not, well...I guess we have an idea to explore.
True, they showed enough already. The preview finalised the campaign for me. Moreover, most of my concerns faded away and...well, the visuals are here to remain so there's no other way to accept it. Otherwise, we'll become masochists 🤣
Tbh I think they should give us access to CC. It will consume us for a whole month, considering that you can save your presets... it's pretty logical. But let's not get too excited. Those are just dreams 😅
@@ImpGoose if it doesn't, you can coin the term and make it your own personal thing, not to shabby 😏
I think they should release CC demo too, because without it it would be just rehashing of everything reviewed before, which can become stale and boring super fast. I mean, they dropped huge infodumps every week for past two months, and usually by the end of third-forth day it already chewed up to the bone by dozens of content creators with nothing new left to say. Also, if we can pre-create our avatars before launch, we could dive right into action without wasting hours tweaking shape of the nose in different lighting 🤣
Love your videos!!
This shadowy silhouette filming was a bit unnerving tho aha
Shock content 😅 Sorry for making you nervous and thanks for complimenting this channel!
@@ImpGoose keep up the amazing work! It’s amazing to see me people have such positivity for the dragon age series.
Bro you scared me with that opening 😭
Sorry 😭😭😭
Mystery Goose 😅🙈🤣 good video as always and in regards to this channel - do what you feel is best for you, your mental health and physical health
I enjoy your videos as they provide a balanced view lol 😂 today I’ve watched big shills and people who aren’t happy 😅🙈🤣
I honestly think Taash will be my least fave companion
Hehe 😜 Thanks! How fun that we can predict who'll spoil the fun for us during the 1st playthrough haha
What have you heard? Spill the tea please
Your videos are so so great, I hope you do gameplays of Veilguard. You're the best
Thank you so much ❤️ I'll do a series of it! I want to try streaming as it will challenge and level up my English haha. But if it will be too hard , I'll just pre-record a usual "let's play"
Luv ur vídeos.
🥰
I would advice you to not show yourself and I'm not saying this because I think you're ugly or anything like that I'm saying this because people on social media can be mean or disrespectful especially with women and because I think it's always a good idea to mantain your privacy. you don't need to show yourself to make good content for instance I'm perfectly fine with what you did until now.
About the game sorry but I find your observations a bit exagerated I don't think the game will hurt anybody eyes and the world being noisy is a very strange remark and you can change the volume level of the sound effects if they disturb you.
That's thoughtful advice, thank you 😊 Noisy is the word that my husband used to refer to the picture or visual frame. Well...He actually called it "clusterf**k" haha but I chose a more polite word.
That's the thing that I heard in the review: even if you turn off most of the effects, the game is still heavily saturated with glowing and flashes
@@ImpGoose We will see if he's right but I remember the first time I saw Inquisition combat I had the same impression since it was different from the previous games then I played it and I loved it to this day it's my favourite DA game I reinstalled it a couple of months ago and it's still on my pc. I must say I would have preferred a game that looked more like Inquisition but it's not the first time they make changes we will see. One thing is certain I will play this game and I'm convinced it will be a good game maybe not a masterpiece but it's strange many people want only masterpieces from Bioware otherwise the games are crap while they are prefectly fine with average games from other developers so those other games sell and Bioware games are crushed. It's absolutely unfair and stupid they did that to Mass Effect Andromeda which is not at the level of the trilogy but it's a perfectly fine game way better than games like Starfield or Jedi Fallen Order or hundreds of other games which selled fine (well maybe not Starfield lol). So I hope people will mantain an open mind and will judge the game for what it is not in comparison with the previous games.
Yeah, the same SkillUp who made the “Star Wars Outlaws is a surprisngly good Star War” vid. Seems trustworthy to me /sarcasm/
The best goose.
I find Wolf Heart video was the most honest to the issues I can’t get over. While the others including Shill Up videos editor glazed it more than I think it deserves.
While nothing they said seems dishonest, wolf heart is the only one who seemed to be willing to call out any of the issues.
maybe, and i know this will sound crazy, different people like different things. i know, shocking.
Yeah, he was the first who I watched. If we look critically at his video, there was more about his personal preferences than about informing which is absolutely valid from his pov. He's a gamer, not a journalist. Therefore he gathers people with similar tastes for games. Glowing is everywhere, no secrets seem hidden and items can glow too. It's the same issue that my husband has. However it's strictly visual and as I said, I don't like to repeat myself. We've talked enough about the visuals and art style to form an opinion.
@@ImpGoose yes, the issues called out where the hub,mobile UI, and the art style. As you said he focused on the gameplay side and how it felt to play it.
The game under all that cluttered mess sounds like it can be fun if you can ignore the heavy gamified things like awkward transitions and other such things. Which as the first person stated different taste for different folks or I say different tolerance level for amateur game design as experienced teams would want to hide those things better to avoid breaking emersion.
All in all, it sounds like to some people it will be a 8/10 and others 6/10, just depends on how much you can ignore the those things.
I almost never use mods but yes I will sure be moding cause I can’t stand the Hub, UX/UI, or the designs all of which are things I know a mod can correct. I am mostly just disappointed that I know I will have to do so just to enjoy the game that 10 years ago I don’t feel those issues would have been there.
Aww you should totally show your face friend! At first I was like oh crap its the girl from the ring crawled up out of the well and is speaking with gooses voice! I just think whenever your comfortable you should do it, we will all still be here listening to you making videos no matter what. 💯😆🫠🙂↕️
Hahaha, I should've thought that it could possibly scare people. I'm so sorry if The Ring reference made you flinch. Well, as a newbie I learn every day. Thanks for your support, my dear! ✨❤️
@@ImpGoose you should cut yourself some slack. Lol your videos are my favorite by far on dragon age and I follow everything on the topic. Plus you do all of this in a different language than your native tongue which is super impressive. Americans tend to butcher other languages when we try to speak it lol. So I tend to use tech to translate so I don't offend anyone 😅😓😵
Haha, ngl it gives some courage 🔥🤟🏼
The good news is it does sound like it’s better but there is nothing that has been shown why BioWare downgraded some of there core mechanics.
Now I'm curious to see a face reveal!
Haha, still thinking about it 😉
Ok i came here to see one thing ! Where is Goose, I said there will be Goose, Goose is a Lie!! 🧐🧐.
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 🤣🤣🤣
you can turn off/down the glowy stuff outside of combat, the world shouldnt be too bad for you
As far as I understood from watching Wolfheart, he did it and the world was still glowing. Maybe I misunderstood something 🤔
Maybe you can just get a vtuber model based on your Inquisitor or something.
Oh, that's interesting 🤔
None of the reviews I watched talked about rooks personality which makes me curious
Your Rook will be shaped by your choices, I suppose 🤔
That's usually up to us. Like my Warden and Hawke was mostly witty, while my Inquisitor was mostly serious with a little bit of humor mixed in. I rarely ever go for a nasty/rude character.
@@sonnenblumefrau2048 just note bed they didn’t mention rooks dialogue much
@@davrosdavros7198 spoilers most likely
hey...your content is important, not how you look...or anything similar...at least I listen to you, I don't care how you look or anything...
You're very sweet, thanks for your support of this channel ✨❤️
Based on what I've seen, I'm so excited for this game! MASSIVE SPOILERS: did you see the cutscene showing a young Solas trying to convince a young Ghilan'nain? Solas had hair!!
Another MASSIVE SPOILERS: Solas said that the Evanuris resorted to blight magic when Solas rebelled. That's really interesting, I wonder what stance Mythal took...
I haven't and I'll avoid it as long as I can, so that my jaw can drop when I play haha. Though...I have a draft video for Solas and Ghil having a relationship...I guess that's what I'm posting this weekend
@@ImpGoose I'm sorry, I didn't mean to spoil anything for you. I wish UA-cam had tools that could put black blankets hiding spoilers, like reddit does
That's okay ☺️ I don't mind reading them, though seeing is a completely different story!
Every game has demo/early access/beta nowadays. This build for influencers can be stripped of some spoilery things and be released as a demo. People can start origin quests to choose favourite companions, look at skilltree and start theorycrafting. They already spoiled enough with trailers so few more doesnt hurt if the game has 40 sliders of endings, so whats up? Instead we rely on previews from mostly paid trips. I can tell when people are excited for the game and these people looked liked they have seen a ghost
SkillUp paid for himself, that's why I listen to him and trust his judgement. Still, it doesn't mean he's right. We are all different and I'm sure many will find the game boring or nonsensical. It's life 😅
As an avid player of Gacha games, the combat doesn’t bother me at all.
ZERO hands on experience with the game and already deciding to snub a companion, lol. how open minded of you.
Well, it's open minded of you to judge a person based on one phrase without understanding the context in the community on this channel so... 🤣 You see what you want to see
@@ImpGoose oh i watched your theory video on bellara’s ookie spookie triangles! how creepy, the fadejumper is covered in symbols that represent the veil. you claim to be mostly well versed in inquisition lore, but don’t even know that the triangles were used in Solas’ murals to represent the physicality of the veil. you’re coming at Dragon Age with a Disney-informed outlook of character design. i understand not liking a character at first glance, i don’t very well like Lucanis so far. but to say that “there are plenty of other companions to choose from” before you’ve even seen her in the game is wild.
I still don't know what to think; many of the reviews were positive but Wolfheart was very honest and his was very mixed.
Yeah, he was the first who I watched. If we look critically at his video, there was more about his personal preferences than about informing which is absolutely valid from his pov. He's a gamer, not a journalist. Therefore he gathers people with similar tastes for games. Glowing is everywhere, no secrets seem hidden and items can glow too. It's the same issue that my husband has. However it's strictly visual and as I said, I don't like to repeat myself. We've talked enough about the visuals and art style to form an opinion 😏
No, "top surgical scars" is not a "praiseworthy customization option". It's pandering. You are in a world where you can literally transmute to another animal that is COMPLETELY different in anatomical structure. You regenerate lost limbs. YOU DON'T GET "BREAST REMOVAL SCARS" in this world. Qunaris and elves have been perversed, mostly having features of a black IRL person, and the 100% slider for breast and butt is unrealistically very small.
The game has low-budget animations as well. And the "reports" you're referring to are of coursed biased and "sanitized".
I also watched Asmongold, though it doesn't mean that he is right about everything. Top surgical scars weren't made for us or for the fantasy aspect. We share this game with different people who relate to different things. If you refuse to accept that there are as many world states and realities as people, that's a choice. Nothing that is made by other people will bend to the will or taste of one person. You can control only your reality and your life, I hope you understand that
@@ImpGoose You're missing my point. And no, I didn't specifically refer to Asmongold. I LOVE the DA universe, and the utter disrespect for the lore for the sake of pandering is obvious. We do share it with different people, but that doesn't mean you need to pander to everyone. If we are, then let's be genuine about it and have the character creator include down syndrome defects, small hands defects, and each and every spectrum possible.
I do not mind inclusivity. But in this game, it's OBVIOUSLY done to score points, since it only "includes" a specific set of people.
And yes, noone should be demanded to bend to anyone's taste. To that point, I will not be buying this game because it disrespect DAO's world in A LOT of ways. It's not grounded to the DA world AT ALL. It's made primarily for checkboxes.
You too, in your naivety, will find that the "woke"/alphabet mob is smaller than you think. By thinking that appealing to the minority, your channel will grow better and faster, you set yourself up for downfall.
You do not genuinely support this "cause" or demographic. You're simply pandering, and your hollow words with no substantial logic that is backed by non-parroted words ring hollow. Pandering to the loud minority is not going to get you growth. Remember that the empty can is louder than the one that's full.
Well, I guess it's nice to feel confident and knowledgeable to suggest that you know everyone's traits, lives, and motivations. The very same way, it doesn't make it true as there are many realities.
It's a simple and understandable world you painted. It is comfortable for identifying your surroundings with IFF scan. If you enjoy living in this reality, that's your choice. Please, be respectful and don't drag anyone after you especially when you know nothing about these people.
@@ImpGoose I know for a fact that every human being deserves equal amounts of respect, courtesy, and choice regardless of race, gender, OR status.
Statistically, ~1% or disabled in a way that deters normal everyday functions. But do they demand that all stairs be replaced with ramps? Now think VERY CAREFULLY why. Because they are the minority, correct?
Now ~95% of the world are heterosexuals. Why in the world do you think that transitioners who had their breasts removed can get representition, and people with down syndrome do not? Why do you not respect them and instead drag people whose life you know absolutely nothing about?
What makes YOU think you have the moral capacity and highground to dictate what is and what is not right, or what can be and cannot be represented?
The world is governed by rules and laws that is designed to instill as much order as possible. You want subjectivity ingrained into these rules, and your naivety gets in the way of seeing the bigger picture. You are idealistic, and I sincerely pray you grow to understand how the world works REALISTICALLY.
Yeah, this is not reassuring. Dragon Age should not be like God of War. Blargh. NO.
But I do appreciate the clarity.
I did/do as much fighting though in the past three games.

Okay, I hope this isn't unwelcome, but now that I've seen you I'm gonna tell you your vibe--it's "friendly but introverted Scandinavian you'd trust to watch your drink at a club." 🍻
Since you mentioned pronunciation help, I've got you! A couple of things I noticed: contrary to what you'd expect, review is most properly said as "ree-VYU" and companion as "com-PAN-yun." I'll try to catch a stream to see if I find more. I love that you want to keep improving, I feel the same about my Dutch, but you're doing very well already. Keep up the great work!
I'll gladly guard all your drinks with my life hahaha. Let's form...The PINTGUARD! 🍺 I sound like a dwarf now lmao
Thanks for your tips! Fighting muscle memory is tough but I'll do my best 🥰 Good luck with you Dutch!!!
Hello my dear Goose, first and foremost, do what you feel most comfortable with doing. I know it may sound strange hearing this come from me, but I have the exact same fears or discomfort about showing myself on camera as you do.
I didn't feel I had enough presents to be entertaining or do I really feel positive about my looks. I'm always do the thing that scares me most. I began to realize I grew more comfortable, seeing myself on camera as time went on.
I absolutely agree with you about all the icons and numbers on the screen. I do believe we can turn all those things off in the settings. Outside of that, I have zero complaints. I'm so excited we are gonna have so much fun playing this game. Excellent video as always, my friend.
Whatever you decide to do in the future, know that... this is the way and we will follow. 🥰🙏🏾💚🪿
Hiii!🥰 Oh, you are always such a sweet person, I'm so lucky to have you as a friend and fellow-creator who can share the experience! BG3 taught me the wisdom of life, "The only way out is through!" 🤣 What will come out of this experiment I have no idea, but at least I'll learn about this side of gaming. Thanks for your kind words and support ❤️💜❤️💜
Can't wait to play the game and see how many things can be turned off haha
@ImpGoose You are absolutely welcome, my dear friend. Let's say we're equally as lucky to find each other's friendship.
OMG, BG3 drops a plethora of knowledge bombs. I support you. 🤣🙌🏾
Oh yes, I can't wait to see what we can do with this game. October 31st just can't get here fast enough.
You're welcome Goose. 🥰🙏🏾💚🪿
Your back😁👍🏿
🥳
like this vlog style a lot, very mysterious and good room lighting too.
My nitpick of character creator the butt slider at max setting is so small. I thought my Rook could have baker's dozen of cake, not cupcakes damn lol.
vanilla DAO on pc I've heard isnt playable. some bugs bioware never patched can stop progression so you need certain mod that fixes it sadly.
Thanks! And you're so right regarding the slider. Moreover their backside looks flat as if characters don't run and jump all the time, but sit in the office for 12 hours daily 😅
Well, the minimal amount of mods then!
great video goose.🪿
