Dragon Age Day?

Remember Bioware? remember them? Me neither.

I played origins and went with an elf twink rouge that looks lowkey like link to be the underdog

They really wouldn't be able to get away with this in 2025. Hell, 2025 bioware wouldn't even consider adding something like this

you won't get away with telling ANYTHING edgy nowadays since major companies/publishers are puppeted by censoring jews that also hire mentally ill people from art schools by HR departments

On one hand, losing Sandal was a terrible decision.
On the other hand, it saved him from the absolute shit fest that is modern DA. So it was accidentally good.
I love this simple enchantment bastard.

>>727797381
enchantment?

>>727797381
Dragon Age lore was unironically really fucking good.
Gaider may have been a fucking faggot but the series died as soon as he left.

Enchantment!

No.... t's time to put him out to pasture.

>>727798686
i don't give a fuck whether a writer is straight gay libtard right whatever the fuck as long as they have a good head for worldbuilding, lore, and story (to varying degrees, nobody is perfect). Gaider had missteps but overall gave a shit about those things.
I think a lot of Bioware's modern problems is something he said in the past, that the higher ups of Bioware/EA (after the Doctors founders left) don't put much faith in writing in general and just sort of hired whoever after he and others left.
>>
>>727798856
DA's lore was really all the franchise had going for it after Inquisition, and it was all because of Gaider.
Weekes didn't even remotely have what it took to carry a game, and it shows.
In retrospect, it's pretty obvious that every decent thing Weekes ever wrote was under heavy supervision by an actually decent writer, whether that was Gaider or Karpyshyn.
>>
>>727798686
He riped off Asoiaf, that is. The moment he ntroduced his gay ass ideas the franchise went to shit.
That's why everyone remember Origins and nobody cares about the rest of the games.
>>
>>727799845
>riped off Asoiaf
GoT is just some fat pervert's LotR fan fiction.
If anything, Gaider ripped off Wheel of Time. The book series, that is. Not the Amazon series that's also a pozzed piece of shit.

Inquisition was trash storywise. The gameplay was shit.

You didn't even play it.
Nice job falling for a 10-year-old meme.

Losing Karpyshyn and getting what we got for ME3 will always asspain me a little bit.

Loveable tard.

>Wheel of Time
Interesting take, don't think I've heard that one before. mind expanding on that? The only thing I can think of is that grey wardens are doomed to eventually go insane
>>
>>727799967
Gaider and the rest of the writers said Asoiaf was the inspiration, you can check it.
It's all over the writing tho.
>Grey wardens.
>Noble houses at war with each other.
>Bloody wedding.
>Dragons are back
>All the dark shit you can do in the game.
DA2 still tried to keep the tone bur failed.
Inquisition was High Fantasy trash straight for Gaider gay ass nobody liked it.
>>
>>727800138
good ending

>mind expanding on that?
I've never read it, but friends of mine who have explained the setting to me and it was really similar to DA. The big bad is locked in a mountain behind 7 seals and the magic system is based on forcing one's will onto a dreamworld or something similar.

>Grey wardens.

>All the dark shit you can do in the game.
That slop is really only the most basic level of DA lore. I don't doubt that Gaider was phoning it in once DA2 rolled around, but the foundational lore with the Fade, Blight, and Darkspawn is unironically peak and it all got shit on and thrown away in Veilguard.
Weekes is a fucking hack and he should never work in vidya again.
>>

>>727800598
>inspired by asoiaf
I can see it, that one expansion with the warden keep added a travel event with a superman baby reference and a meteorite you could forge into a star-related sword, which I'm guessing is a blatant Dayne/Dawn nod.
I wish Gryphons were that setting's asoiaf dragons, they're so much cooler as a fantasy creature

Only Origins is Canon, the series ended with Morrigan passing through the mirror. Everything after is fanfiction, trite garbage and is not canon.
