Yay! I'm scared because of the art style, positive because of Matt Mercer, and really want to see Ghil's powers or experimental monsters from her lab 💀🦴👀
@@ImpGoose Honestly? I don't mind the art style. I actually enjoy it and I think it could be a good thing. The more "cartoonish" vibe it gives is oddly appealing.
@@callmebirdyy8643 Yea hI don't min dthe art style because for m eDA hs always had abit of a cartoony look to i tespeciall yin how htings like magic work in the story. Even DAI had a bi tof a cartoony look about it with the demon sand rifts
They have mentioned that the world state will be decided in the character creator. I assume this means you will have to redo it each time, which i don't mind since it makes it easier than the Keep (though i enjoyed Keep on it's own). It would also be nice if you can save it and have 'default' world state of your own so you can skip that part when starting a new character.
After being BFFs with Varric for two games, I'd actually be mad if he were suddenly romance-able. He has his own little storyline going on about his broken heart and the one true love he can't actually be with. He's also apparently 50 years old as of DA:V. He's been committed to Bianca for something like 28 years, I think if I'm doing my math right. After this long, as his friend who knows he's had many choices over the years, I'd rather see him live out his life as he seems determined to do so. He's chosen his path as adventurer, writer, and merchant extraordinaire, and he's not been lonely. Let him keep his personality and not suddenly be a player f*ck toy just because the fan base likes him too much for his own good. As for if he's dead or not, I hope not. I hope he just got sucked into the Fade. Again. Maybe he'll find and save Hawke. Maybe he'll find out something about dwarves and magic powers. I don't know, but it's what I hope for. I do think there are options other than dead. But he could also be dead. I'll add that he actually doesn't even seem to be a companion in this game, despite the opening. In regards to the canon, I'm a bit skeptical on what they're saying. I'd hope that I could import world states. That was the whole point of the tapestry and Dragon Age Keep to track a lot of seemingly inconsequential decisions. I don't mind if they have a couple default world states to choose from for new players. Or even a comic book like they've done in the past for Mass Effect to set the world state. Just do not make me have to input all of my world state into the game by hand when I have perfectly good world states sitting around already. And if they mean they're not going to continue tracking world states, well, they'd be losing what made Dragon Age special. I definitely hope they're not getting rid of that.
They have a system they are calling the tarot card system to replace the keep. It probs wont have as many of the inconsequential choices like if you got thise two dalish to marry in origins but they said it will cover all the major choices and will likely cover the companion stuff as well
Hey nobody talked about Varric becoming a toy for anything. I'm just goofing around with Erika's video that the kiss might save him from a potential death. The new world state is indeed a tarot system. It will be cool if we'll be able to export the previous choices from DA Keep, though.
I agree with you about Varric. He's my all time favorite character in DA, just like a lot of people, but the time has passed for him to be a romanceable option. It would've made the most sense for us to be able to romance him in DA2, but I'm excited to see how he is in DA:V.
@@KFCID65 That could potentially be okay. But I'd still rather just import. I'd consider that more for people just getting into the game, not for people who have been playing for years. But yes, if they're not tracking if the two dalish marry, it's been 20 years in game, I'm kind of good with that (though actually with something like that, I think it would be cooler to have a hidden companion that is born or not born depending on what you did. I'm still hoping Conner or his sister who will exist if he dies turn out to be companions in a later game).
@@callmebirdyy8643 I'll even add that if it were HAWKE he suddenly did an about face and romanced, I'd be kind of okay with it. Because he's known Hawke for 10 some years before losing her to the Fade. They had least had a long relationship. Maybe in the time they've been parted, he realized he loved her all along etc. I could go with that without feeling it ruined his character. But this Rook person shows up out of nowhere and suddenly he's ready for romance? It doesn't track for me.
Potential previous game cameos: - Morrigan - Sigrun - Dagna - Sten - Merrill - Whomever you made the divine - Dorian - Charter - Spirit Cole Non-game character cameos - Maevaris 'Mae' (Tevinter magister against slavery and connected to Dorian) - Rasaan (Qunari tamassran seeking elvhen artifacts) - Marius and Tessia (mage killer and connection to Charter, respectif) - Valya (Warden who found the Griff on eggs) - Illario (Antivan crow)
I hope these characters appear somewhere in the game: Vaea (squire for Ser Aaron Hawthorne and now probably a knight; from the comics), Fenris (also relevant not only because of just Tevinter, but because he appeared in the comics as a major character), Viago and Teia (Antivan Crows), Isabela (she is relevant, speaking of Rivain), Francesca Invidus, maybe even Calix, and Autumn (the sweet and brave mabari from the comics), Tarquin (from the short story), Myrion, Myrna, Audric, Ramesh It seems that Strife and Irelin, as well as Evka and Antoine are also in the game (it seems to be confirmed, in particular by John Epler)
That would mean our Warden should have a voice when they were silent in the game, if they were voiced then people would want a mod to give our Warden a voice if we went back to replay them.
Erika's kiss for Varric probably hints at the fact that Varric is alive, BioWare are just teasing us with not showing us Varric after the disruption of Solas' ritual? Certainly hope so, but the chances for romacing him, in my opinion, very miserable (I just want him to be alive, please, at least!) But something tells me that it's not only compainions you can romance, but romance with a particular companion makes way more sense, since you're a close groupe and already spend a lot of time near them :)
I think they are committed to a fall release date so I'm thinking late October to early November at the latest, hopefully with minimal delays. I think this is a game that will be full of revelation and from hearing the devs talk they are very confident in the product. I am also cautiously optimistic but I think Bioware needs a win and I think they know that too so I'm hoping for the best finger crossed. I honestly want to see Morrigan and Flemeth again. I would like to see if Morrigan will take her mother's place or Flemeth will pass the torch onto her, will Morrigsn be a vessel for Mythal or will she once again aid the hero directly.
Great character choices! I won't be surprised if there is an episode where Morrigan is forced to give Mythal her body for the greater good of the planet and magic. It will be so dramatic 😭
The EA - App is the bane of my existence (I don*t know how they did it but the thing is even more unstable than Origins was - and that is not something easy to achive given what a clusterf. that launcher was). I can*t play DA:I or Mass Effect Legendary Edition without at least 3 crashes per session.
I have lots of different world states from playing the games many times. It was a pain having to go to the Keep to get a particular world state for a new playthrough just to see how things changed in Inquisition. After all, the world state from Origins were include in 2, which should have been an easy import into Inquisition. I just wish that Bioware had made importing an Inquisition save file a thing. I'll be unhappy if I have to input every single decision I made in the first three games.
i saw Cassandra's voice actress on IMDB and that's enough for me for now. I'm more excited about locations go, I was thrilled when I learned will go to the Grand Necropolis, but a for a returning location is easily Orzamar. I think they culture was the most work put in it, and I want to see now that twenty years past since Bhelen took over thanks to his sister (my favourite world state)
@@ImpGoose YES, Orzammar would be amazing! One of my favorite locations. I loved both Dwarf Noble and Dwarf Commoner, the latter because it really feels like surmounting impossible odds, and the former because it's such a metaphor for the dwarven lore: it's like a titan being sundered, when you're cut off from your home. But of course, the city would be very different depending on whether you chose Bhelen or Harrowmont, and whether the Anvil stayed. I'm not sure how they'd handle that.
@@WynneL It is a difficult task indeed. The only thing that's certain is that we will have a location with dwarven-like gates (concept-art reference). Idk if it will be an abandoned thaig or a normal one, but it's still interesting to explore!
@@Dzsorden1 I’m actually hoping for Kal Sharok, to be honest! It’s relatively close to Minrathous, so maybe? Kal Sharok was left for dead and assumed lost during the First Blight, along with Hormak and Gundaar. The dwarves of Kal Sharok weren’t very happy about that! I’m curious how they survived on their own without outside help. John Epler did not confirm or deny that the Hormak in ‘The Horror of Hormak’ and the lost great thaig were one and the same, but that’s not an unreasonable conclusion. I’d love to see it though! David Gaider had written about Ortan Thaig in ‘The Stolen Throne and ‘The Calling’ before we visited there on our way to the Anvil of the Void in Origins. I wouldn’t mind visiting there and Gundaar, myself, if the narrative supports it. (Oh no. I *never* had a dwarven Warden or Inquisitor. Not at all…! 😂)
Erika being a voice for rook was unexpected but awesome. My nonbinary sibling cried when we watched some of the videos Erika had on they're twitter. Im excited to see more of this game.
My thought is to many players have to many opinions and none well be happy as no gamer in this day and age can accept that a game is not made exclusive for her or him
The fans are in different camps on DA:TV but we can all agree that the EA launcher sucks. I think Varric will be alright, but romance, he's probably not an option. That is fine. I just want him to be okay. 🥺
Thank you, Important Goose, for the great video, as always! As someone who plays EA games off of Steam (Mass Effect/Dragon Age), I absolutely HATE the various EA launchers they have implemented, especially since I am on a Linux platform. If BioWare fixes it, so I do not have to use a secondary EA platform on Steam, to play their games, I would absolutely give The Veilguard a chance. (assuming BioWare even allows Linux users to have a chance at playing the game when it comes out, or soon after)
Thanks for watching! You're very sweet 🥰 I totally agree with you regarding the unnecessary difficulty with all the glitchy apps EA had. Fingers crossed, you'll be able to play the game on Linux without any problems 🍀
I’m already pretty much sold. I would like to see the combat and skill tree in action, though. To say nothing about the CC! 😜 I’m hoping to see Fenris and Dorian. They’re both in Tevinter, last I heard. Merrill might make sense, possibly as an agent for Solas.
YAY! Merrill will be a lovely addition to the game's plot. When I first played DAI, I was blown away by the fact that she fixed her Eluvian BEFORE all the messy drama with Solas
I'm new to Dragon Age, and I'm currently playing Inquisition which I absolutely love. Well, based on my experience with Inquisition, I simply can't wait to play Veilguard :)
Since I decided that my Qunari Inquisitor "Damian" will enter The Veilguard in my first play through, I would be very salty if Dorian isn't in the game. I would also love our HOF to return, but I think that's not going to happen. I have somehow also the feeling that Morrigan and Leliana might return, also Flemeth because I won't think for one second that she's already dead.
Hello Goose, I hope you are well, my dear friend! The only Dragon Age game I have played is Inquisition. When it comes to the first two games I watch, Let's Plays of them and tons of lore videos. Plus, I've read all the books, LOL. I really hope to see Dorian, Iron Bull, Cole, Vivienne, and Isabella. Along with all the cast members from DAO and DA2. I will definitely be playing this game on the PS5, although I do have a steam account. I don't think Varric is going to die. After the 20-minute gameplay footage, I believe Varric will be paralyzed from the waist down. I'm not entirely sure he will be romanceable. Great video! Stay positive, my friend. Hopefully, we will all be pleasantly surprised and have more games to come from BioWare. 😄🙏💚
Hiiiii! No wisdom teeth trouble my sleep anymore haha, thanks. Hope you're doing great too! Let's plays are fun, especially if a gamer has a nice sense of humour! All fingers and toes crossed Varric will never die in DAV 🥺
@ImpGoose You're very welcome, Goose! I am so happy to know that you are doing much better and getting sleep. 😄🙌🏾 I do apologize it taking me a minute to respond to you. Life, it happens. 😅 I absolutely agree about Let's Plays. Luckily, the ones I saw the counting creator was pretty funny. I have faith Varric will be okay, but... if Varric dies, we riot! P.S. I'm doing well, my friend. Thank you for asking. 😄🙏💚
Whahahaha the Pike teaching Grog moment xD You just made my night with that memory! I'll be playing via Steam, glad we no longer need EA launcher and that it is fully offline. NPCs I'd like to meet again; Sandal, Feynriel, Morrigan (with Kieran), Fenris, Dorian, HOF, our choice for Divine and emperor/empress of Orlais, Alistair (we know we'll be seeing Anora as her voice actor has been confirmed), Varric (they can't have that little bit we already see in the trailer be the last of him, he's telling us this story! D:), characters from the novels and comics.. NPCs I'd like to see that we haven't met yet; the other 5 Evanuris, I mean.. where did they go when their prisons broke open?! We need to know. Also more/different Titans, KalSharok dwarves, Rivaini seers.. Pfff, so many NPCs xD But with between 700 to 800 of them, I bet we'll be getting plenty
It's one of my favourite episodes from that campaign 🤪 Glad it made you happy! So many characters could be back. I hope that we'll see the most of your list in the game in (fingers crossed) early October 👀
Well..... shit I'm at the point of conflict. This news is actually pulling back into wanting this game.... I'd love to see the Hero of Ferelden, Bethany Hawke, and any of the heroes (including Loghain) that stayed back inside the Fade during Inquisition again Michael Corleone: Just when I thought I was out, THEY PULL ME RIGHT BACK IN!
Now, I need to move faster (and keep accuracy) on my building projects of Adamant Fortress and Redcliffe Castle (from DAO, not DAI) on Conan Exiles. You would probably love to see the build I’ve made of Skyhold.
One of the developers said you can look like anyone you meet in the game. I’m curious how that will work . They said you see a guard and you can look like them (I assume there’s a face changer or you play that look in a new game but in dai that would have been a tall task. I’m really curious how it will work. I’m neutral as well
I would be very surprised and disappointed if Morrigan didn't return, it seemed like she had a big role to play in the world of Dragon Age after the third game. Especially if she drank from the well. Dorian is another one, I mean it's Tevinter after all so yeah. These are the two characters It makes a lot of sense to return, even though Morrigan's actress said she's not returning. Maybe it's NDA or something?
@@ImpGoose idk if it's a thing in the gaming industry, but maybe they're keeping it a secret to avoid spoilers. At least I hope so. Don't think I ever heard of anything like that happening in video games.
I currently have all three previous parts bought in Steam, ridiculous dance of launching Steam to launch EA app to launch the game annoy the hell out of me. Terminating unnecessary steps in this process is smart move in right direction, well done. Won't be surprised if they release DAV November 18 at 10 year anniversary of DAI, it fits 3-rd financial quarter window, but I guess we'll see. Personally would love to have it sooner rather than later \Insert Sirius Black meme with caption "I did my waiting! Ten years of it! In Solavellan hell!\ 🤣 As for romancable Varric, dunno. Voice actress goofing off is not iron clad confirmation, most likely it's nothing. But if he is indeed one of the options and they write it well, why not? Maybe make it available only in very specific type of world state, where most of his friends and family dead, so now he lost in midlife crisis and can fall for shiny new character? Or "debauchery during plague" kind of attraction, similar to Shepard's one night stand with Javic or Vega in Citadel DLC. Like end of the world is in couple hours, so we may as well go wild and do stuff 💃🤸
I'm on the floor here from your Sirius Black meme🤣🤣🤣 I have to insert it in one of my next videos. HUGE thanks for the inspiration! And the one-night stand after that just knocked me down. I can't.. ahahahaha. You made my day!!!
I don't think the game will be terrible. I enjoyed DA2 and let's be honest, it wasn't that good. I don't think it will be great either. Probably mid at best imo
I hope the choices like the dragon keep are in depth. Don’t think I’ll be a big fan of the new squad but that’s just me getting older. I’ll bet they are all really hip and fun like the andromeda kids where (mouth vomit)
Thanks! Though it's sad that the only topic you chose to focus your attention on is the mistakes of a non-native speaker and not the questions I left for discussion
Seeing as Erika uses those pronouns, then that means using any one of those should be fine. Important Goose used “she” to refer to Erika and it’s one of that voice actor’s pronouns so the UA-camr used it correctly.
This is the game i am most excited for this year

Thank you so much! It is definitely worth playing to make up your own mind. Always great to see you in the comments!
Since I decided that my Qunari Inquisitor "Damian" will enter The Veilguard in my first play through, I would be very salty if Dorian isn't in the game. I would also love our HOF to return, but I think that's not going to happen. I have somehow also the feeling that Morrigan and Leliana might return, also Flemeth because I won't think for one second that she's already dead.
I'm waiting with you, those characters are in my list too haha
Hello Goose, I hope you are well, my dear friend!
The only Dragon Age game I have played is Inquisition. When it comes to the first two games I watch, Let's Plays of them and tons of lore videos.
Plus, I've read all the books, LOL. I really hope to see Dorian, Iron Bull, Cole, Vivienne, and Isabella. Along with all the cast members from DAO and DA2.
I will definitely be playing this game on the PS5, although I do have a steam account.
I don't think Varric is going to die. After the 20-minute gameplay footage, I believe Varric will be paralyzed from the waist down. I'm not entirely sure he will be romanceable.
Great video! Stay positive, my friend. Hopefully, we will all be pleasantly surprised and have more games to come from BioWare. 😄🙏💚
Hiiiii! No wisdom teeth trouble my sleep anymore haha, thanks. Hope you're doing great too!
Let's plays are fun, especially if a gamer has a nice sense of humour! All fingers and toes crossed Varric will never die in DAV 🥺
@ImpGoose You're very welcome, Goose! I am so happy to know that you are doing much better and getting sleep. 😄🙌🏾
I do apologize it taking me a minute to respond to you. Life, it happens. 😅
I absolutely agree about Let's Plays. Luckily, the ones I saw the counting creator was pretty funny.
I have faith Varric will be okay, but... if Varric dies, we riot!
P.S. I'm doing well, my friend. Thank you for asking. 😄🙏💚
I still haven’t gotten to play my world state of inquisition because of how the keep worked.
I'm really sorry 😔
Whahahaha the Pike teaching Grog moment xD You just made my night with that memory!
I'll be playing via Steam, glad we no longer need EA launcher and that it is fully offline.
NPCs I'd like to meet again; Sandal, Feynriel, Morrigan (with Kieran), Fenris, Dorian, HOF, our choice for Divine and emperor/empress of Orlais, Alistair (we know we'll be seeing Anora as her voice actor has been confirmed), Varric (they can't have that little bit we already see in the trailer be the last of him, he's telling us this story! D:), characters from the novels and comics..
NPCs I'd like to see that we haven't met yet; the other 5 Evanuris, I mean.. where did they go when their prisons broke open?! We need to know. Also more/different Titans, KalSharok dwarves, Rivaini seers.. Pfff, so many NPCs xD But with between 700 to 800 of them, I bet we'll be getting plenty
It's one of my favourite episodes from that campaign 🤪 Glad it made you happy!
So many characters could be back. I hope that we'll see the most of your list in the game in (fingers crossed) early October 👀
Everyone hates the EA laucher. Hope they at least allow us to use the character creator before the game releases.
Well..... shit
I'm at the point of conflict.
This news is actually pulling back into wanting this game....
I'd love to see the Hero of Ferelden, Bethany Hawke, and any of the heroes (including Loghain) that stayed back inside the Fade during Inquisition again
Michael Corleone: Just when I thought I was out, THEY PULL ME RIGHT BACK IN!
Haha this is the way! These are great characters 🔥
Now, I need to move faster (and keep accuracy) on my building projects of Adamant Fortress and Redcliffe Castle (from DAO, not DAI) on Conan Exiles. You would probably love to see the build I’ve made of Skyhold.
I would like Inky and their LI to return
One of the developers said you can look like anyone you meet in the game. I’m curious how that will work . They said you see a guard and you can look like them (I assume there’s a face changer or you play that look in a new game but in dai that would have been a tall task. I’m really curious how it will work. I’m neutral as well
I think CC will be very similar to Dragon Dogma 2
I would be very surprised and disappointed if Morrigan didn't return, it seemed like she had a big role to play in the world of Dragon Age after the third game. Especially if she drank from the well. Dorian is another one, I mean it's Tevinter after all so yeah. These are the two characters It makes a lot of sense to return, even though Morrigan's actress said she's not returning. Maybe it's NDA or something?
Yeah, that's super weird that Morrigan is not officially in the VA cast. She is LITERALLY the daughter of Mythal/Flemeth!
@@ImpGoose idk if it's a thing in the gaming industry, but maybe they're keeping it a secret to avoid spoilers. At least I hope so. Don't think I ever heard of anything like that happening in video games.
I won’t be romancing anyone, none appeal to me. So I’ll let them cuddle each other in a corner while I save the world.
Good to know! What about the old characters that you'd like to see again? 😅
@@ImpGoose Morrigan for sure, she’s too close to Flemeth/Mythal to not have some part to play. And maybe the Inquisitor and Dorian.
I know i'm asking a lot, but if they do a 1-to-1 version of the dragon age, keep in-game. I wouldn't be mad🫡👌🏾
Yeah, it will be awesome tbh 👀
I currently have all three previous parts bought in Steam, ridiculous dance of launching Steam to launch EA app to launch the game annoy the hell out of me. Terminating unnecessary steps in this process is smart move in right direction, well done. Won't be surprised if they release DAV November 18 at 10 year anniversary of DAI, it fits 3-rd financial quarter window, but I guess we'll see. Personally would love to have it sooner rather than later \Insert Sirius Black meme with caption "I did my waiting! Ten years of it! In Solavellan hell!\ 🤣
As for romancable Varric, dunno. Voice actress goofing off is not iron clad confirmation, most likely it's nothing. But if he is indeed one of the options and they write it well, why not? Maybe make it available only in very specific type of world state, where most of his friends and family dead, so now he lost in midlife crisis and can fall for shiny new character? Or "debauchery during plague" kind of attraction, similar to Shepard's one night stand with Javic or Vega in Citadel DLC. Like end of the world is in couple hours, so we may as well go wild and do stuff 💃🤸
I'm on the floor here from your Sirius Black meme🤣🤣🤣 I have to insert it in one of my next videos. HUGE thanks for the inspiration! And the one-night stand after that just knocked me down. I can't.. ahahahaha. You made my day!!!
@@ImpGoose he he, by all means do with my blessing 😄
great vid goose!
Honk ❤️
I think this game has the potential to be the best bioware game ever made
Glad you're pumped! 🔥
If it’s not Hawke romancing Varric I don’t want it
This is the way!
I don't think the game will be terrible. I enjoyed DA2 and let's be honest, it wasn't that good. I don't think it will be great either. Probably mid at best imo
It's very strange, I know, but DA2 is my favourite game in the franchise and the hate it got always confused me
@@ImpGoose I don't judge you for it! Love what you love!
Ye nah, this sisnt dragon age, this a dumbed down fantasy version of mass effect
I hope the choices like the dragon keep are in depth. Don’t think I’ll be a big fan of the new squad but that’s just me getting older. I’ll bet they are all really hip and fun like the andromeda kids where (mouth vomit)
Nah. Andromeda had terrible writing. The writers for veilguard are good old fashioned bioware quality.
*moving a bucket closer to you 😅
Dreadwolf sounded cool. Wokeguard, meh, pass now.
Erika uses they/she/he pronouns!
Thanks! Though it's sad that the only topic you chose to focus your attention on is the mistakes of a non-native speaker and not the questions I left for discussion
Seeing as Erika uses those pronouns, then that means using any one of those should be fine. Important Goose used “she” to refer to Erika and it’s one of that voice actor’s pronouns so the UA-camr used it correctly.
"thank all fictional gods" 🎉
Erika giving Assan headpats 🥹
So sweet 🥹❤️
