    Ack! You've never played Trespasser!? I can't wait for you to get through it. For me, it's the best part of any of the DA games (and I'm an "oldie" who goes back to BG1 ... lol). Trespasser is so incredibly well written (and, imho, the combat was no joke).

    I’m so glad to see other OG DAO people embrace the changes that the other games have made. It gives me hope and I can’t wait for this game to I’m really looking forward to it 😊

      The franchise has always iterated

      I'm an og fan. And I loved them all. With DA2 I was initially bewildered. But the amazing writing won me over real quick. I thought it smart that they made it a journey through time.
      Inquisition was a dream for me. I loved exploring the beautiful areas. I didnt engage with all of the side content (looking at you, shards) but some of the side stuff had great story too. There were hilarious things hidden too, like the cheese shield.
      I cant wait for Veilguard. As long as the writing is back up to standard (Andromeda had lame writing, which was a shame because the gameplay was fun)

      @@RandomWandrer lol the cheese wheel. Love that thing. The shards though, are something. I was having a hard time NOT doing all the little side stuff in DAI but I’ve been practicing and I’m getting better at ignoring them. I’m currently streaming my second ever nightmare run of DAO and getting ready to start my nightmare run of DA2 because well, why not lol. I agree with you about Andromeda with the writing. It’s my least favorite ME game but I do enjoy the combat very much and I do like the master between the companions when riding around in the nomad.

      I too enjoy change in a franchise, as long as it’s done right. It’s like people who enjoy the classics or the original hate change and want to stay stuck to the past.

    Tresspasser might be the best DLC I've played in a game, definitely my favorite! You'll love it

    Thank you for being one of the open minded Dragon Age fans. They act like Dragon Age should be a PC exclusive strategic franchise, even though that could cause a franchise to be irrelevant. I’m more of console gamer and I’ve played all 3 games on my PS3/PS4/PS5. I wasn’t a huge fan of the combat in Origins since it was slow, unresponsive and felt like I wasn’t playing the game, just watching them fight. I’d prefer Dragon Age 2 and Inquisition’s gameplay since I felt like I was acting fighting these enemies. Sure, the VeilGuard Trailer was trying to be an MCU movie, but the gameplay itself look promising. I’m one of those people who didn’t act like Veilguard is going to kill the franchise or be the final nail in the coffin since either Dragon Age 2 or Inquisition. I play the Dragon Age games for the lore, story, characters, banter and romance options. It’s one of the reasons why I enjoyed Baldur’s Gate 3 it’s because of the game’s writing. And yet Baldur’s Gate 3 gets some flack by fans of both Baldur’s Gate 1 and 2. They claimed that Baldur’s Gate 3 was appealing to the LGBT community, that women were knights and it made some retcons to the lore. I don’t care since 1. Baldur’s Gate 3 was my first DND game. 2. It’s an RPG meaning that I can be what race, gender and class I can be and 3. The game won a lot of awards back in 2023 since it appealed to a wider audience. Dragon Age 2 and Inquisition was meant with similar criticisms such as the LGBT romance and women being soldiers. Again, Dragon Age is an RPG when people can be any race, gender and class they choose to be. Also Dragon Age Origins also had LGBT romances. It’s like Dragon Age has the same fan base problem that Fire Emblem has.

    I’m excited for this one - planning on attacking it via Deck and PC! I’m interested in playing the rouge but I always do that…I might just try some kind of caster!

    I have two Rooks in my head 😂 Qunari grey warden mage Daenerys Targaryen
    Or
    Elf mage or rouge from Shadow Dragons (her character is from a book called fourth wing, she uses daggers and lightning)
    And I can’t decide which one I’m going with first!
