>>502827349Oh yeah entire fucking articles used to be written on the intersectionality of oppression and how they should unite to fight the real enemy which was probably straight white men and the chantry or something. It was weird as shit
>>502825651How the FUCK was this dialogue greenlit
>can't fuck Viago>can't fuck Teia>can't fuck Viper>can't fuck Butcher>can't fuck Antoine & Evka (they come as a pair)>can't fuck Myrna>can't fuck First Warden>can't fuck Zara Renata>can't fuck Dorian>can't fuck Valya>can't fuck Solas>can't fuck ISABELAThere is no excusing any of this.
>no sister-wife
>>502828596I hope these brain dead girlies are enjoying VG where everyone loves each other and gets along and the biggest interpersonal conflict is deciding who is responsible for washing the dishes
>>502828481The mic makes him not sound like Solas. Its like Cullen's VA's weird rant voiceover.
blight still a virulent magic plague, not sure why coming from the festering blood of the titans change anything from before

>>502828652Better times, mon amiMorrigan: So have you changed your mind, Sten? I dream about you and I, if you must know.Sten: You would, even were I interested in a small thing like you. The Qunari act is… unpleasant.Morrigan: Unpleasant? Unpleasant how? Now I really am interested.Sten: Deadly.Morrigan: And what if I didn't mind? I enjoy a little… animation.Sten: You'd be less animated afterward.Morrigan: It sounds as if I am arousing your passions already, my dear Sten.Sten: Parshaara. Why do you pester me?Morrigan: (Chuckles) Because 'tis amusing, that is why.Morrigan: You seem so deep in thought, my dear Sten. Thinking of me, perhaps? The two of us, together at last?Sten: Yes.Morrigan: I… what did you say?Sten: You will need armor, I think. And a helmet. And something to bite down on. How strong are human teeth?Morrigan: How strong are my teeth?Sten: Qunari teeth can bite through leather, wood, even metal given time. Which reminds me, I may try to nuzzle.Morrigan: Nuzzle?Sten: If that happens, you'll need an iron pry bar. Heat it in a fire, first, or it may not get my attention.Morrigan: Perhaps it would be better if we did not proceed.Sten: Are you certain? If it will satisfy your curiosity…Morrigan: Yes. Yes, I think it is best.

>>502828652it was a different time! Characters could have buck breaking fetishes and call each other sluts.

>>502829147Mythal is a slut. A SLUT.
>>502829430Hmm, I think we're missing a few.
Did they bother to do different romance scenes if you’re romancing neve/bellara and they get blighted?
>>502830065https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1ferRIG-9JEU4fcy3NAhpAv1ou2UCMwTqKJTXuw7UgSUEnjoy
Speaking of different times... I'd completely forgotten you could actually own a slave in DA2.
>>502830312God I hate how elves look in DA2 (besides Merrill and Fenris).
>>502829162jfc
>>502829162Isabela and sarcastic Hawke annoying the shit out of Aveline is the best part of that game.
>>502829162This is why i cant hate DA2. Companions and story was very well written. I can endure climbing the same mountian for the nth time if game gives me quality banter like this.
>>502830183blighted bellara apologizes for trying to kill you
>>502831147I always said DA2 feela like a group of friends
>>502830254You'll cowards don't even smoke crack
>>502830312I just did that. Putting knife-ears in their place.
>>502831147That's the thing, DA2 was given a few months to cook, if they were given a few years, it would have been as good as Origins. The writing and soul was there, but they got fucked bad. I didn't like DAI, it was boring to play, and I didn't like the companions. DAVG looks like pure slop, and tells me DAI should have failed, because now we have that pile of shit now.
>>502831343DA2 feels like a group of people who fucking hate each other but we’re locked in the same room for long enough that they were forced to interact just so they don’t go insane
>>502828652dudein Origins Sten complains that women shouldn't be warriors and that woman can't be men
>>502831147I thought the story was one of the worse parts of DA2 - especially by Act 3 the focus is largely lost and it feels aimless. Just doing whatever quest until the game decides it's time to progress.
>>502831808noyou have a group with groups within itthe entire party revolves around Hawke and Varric
>The Qunari in charge of the Antaam in this area. Used to be a military officer, but when the Antaam went rogue, he became something like a warlord of cult leader. A powerful warrior with a booming voice. He should sound like the paragon of big dangerous evil masculinity, and he makes his warriors go through painful rituals to prove their devotion. He's strong, blunt, and devoid of mercy or empathy. Will likely kill anyone he doesn't see as useful or entertaining to him. Basically, a bad guy doing his evil bad guy best.You just know Weekes wrote that. Imagine hating your own sex this much.
>>502831808I wouldn't say its that bad. There are friendship groups in there. A few of the characters talk about weekly poker night and. You can look around Hawkes house and see gifts they've bought you. Theres just a few that genuinly don't get on. Actually it might just be a triangle of Fenris, Merril and Anders all mutually hating each other. It certainly feels more like a friendship group than Inquisition or Veilguard managed
>>502832287if I remember correctly I think Carver actually becomes friends with some even if they don't care for his bitchy attitude
>>502831447>Sighs* An elven slave? Maker's breath, I hope you know what you're doingFuck off mom she's a better cook than you are
>>502831251Neve forgotten…
my slave
>>502828251what do women see in solasi'd understand a hog orc or a werewolf but a MALE elf?
>>502832287Some of my best friends are people I hated when we met so I wouldn’t say one precludes the other.
>>502832174>No one LIKES being a woman.He hates women too.
>>502832904True that
>>502832875Admit it. You posted this just to get a girl to talk to you didn't you? It's ok. I'm feeling generous today.
>>502832174Only the Antaam is evil. Every other qunari is a peaceful LGBTQ+ allies who support mental illness!
>>502828092>blade+orb are that superior to the staffIs it just an early game thing or just how it is?
>>502833404For me, it's Treviso.t. butcher
>>502833443Well it certainly feels better.
Treviso > Rivals Coast > Arlathan Forest > Dock Town > Necroshit > the rest
>>502833669It’s okay to have bad taste
>>502833669Rivain should be dead last.
>>502833469>butcherI feel like I really missed a lot with that guy. We were talking about art and how he's a cultured Qunari so I thought we were going to come to an arrangement, then he's slapped me off my chair and turned into the Hulk
>>502833669Piss > Shit >>>> Docktown
>>502833669Cringe. Hossberg moggs all other areas
>>502834396Are you kidding me? That shit is a straight up copypaste from DAI
how does it make you feel that adrast chose an elf to save the world?
>>502834505And that’s a good thing
>>502835032Isn't Andraste = Mythal?
>>502830312Needs kindness reeducation
>>502835032weary of elves desu
>>502835171Unknown but I don’t think so. I think she may have been an old gold soul like Keiran
>>502832140That is because its a reactive story, hawke and friends are just trying to live and support each other but the city keeps being in a constant state of crisis, act 3 was indeed rushed but the story is mostly hawke trying to whack a mole problems before they explode the city
>>502835171>>502835295She was probably one of Mythal's first vessels. Before they changed her into a more benevolent figure in Veilguard, Mythal was pretty much angry as fuck for having been betrayed, and sought the right women with which she could "shove history and events". So we got people like Andraste (leading a war and being betrayed), Tyrrda (leading a war), Flemeth (betrayed as well). Andraste was probably 100% sure she was hearing the Maker, it's heavily implied she was a mage who lost controls of her powers, accidentally killing her half-sister and having health problems all her life, while Flemeth was clearly told what she needed to do.
>>502835171Apparently Andraste now = Dumat = Dirthamen
>>502835295But a warden has always died at the slaying of every archdemon before the fourth blight
>>502835945She was born just some months after Dumat was slain. It's always been suspicious.
>>502835032>she fell for itrofmao@u the anchor is just elf magic ain't got shit to do with andraste
>>502836408>the anchor is just elf magicthe writing really was on the chantry wall by Inquisition wasn't it?
I love this body type.
I'm using this and the sclera mod for my next playthroughhttps://www.nexusmods.com/dragonagetheveilguard/mods/467?tab=images
>>502836408veilguard is not canon.
>>502836723hardly notice a difference
>>502836651Sera's tarot card is so fucking hot.
>tfw no cute orlesian wife to impress with completely true stories
inquisition? more like quizquisition.
How long has this general been back? October 31st?
>>502830312can someone explain how its slavery if she wants to work there
>>502836651Stop with your Sera lust
>>502836601Well, yeah, they mostly explain it in the game at least as early as the battle of Haven. Corypheus created the Anchor with his magic ball. The ball is identified as elven in Inquisition proper, then in Trespasser Solas confesses that it was originally his. And when clearing Adamant Fortress the glowy lady in the Fade who was speculated to be Andraste turns out to be a spirit imitating Divine Justinia.
>>502837398Sovl
>>502837218Hey look at that they put Morrigan's mom in the background
I think that the Maker was always supposed to be realin Origins the were many references to singing and chantingand in Inquisition Cole says that templars reach for something far older that stops magic
>>502837710she's been extensively mind raped and can't consent.
>>502837798look at her young thin lithe body and her dick sucking lipsshe needs rape correction
>>502838178>templars reach for something far olderIt was titans lol
>>502837798Why?
>>502838446She would absolutely bite your cock off. .>>502838525She's ugly and retarded
>>502838178Maker is real tho. He just made the Titans.
>>502839172>Maker is realProofs?
>>502839249Who made the World? The Maker.
So who sealed the archdemons/old gods/high dragons of the Evanuris beneath Thedas? Solas and Mythal?
>>502839249Trust me
>>502838446Sera is bisexual and would sooner fuck a tranny than a male Inquisitor, cope.
>>502839542Yea. I think to make Origins seem pathetic.
(you) are the maker.
>>502839554>red lyrium staff>grey warden shield?????? Viper???
>>502839663Sera would 100% fuck Traash.
>>502839554wait... what????

>>502839948Nothing to look at, carry on
>>502839554tfw *angry* lyriumFTFY :)
>>502839554Hey your holiness? Are you ever going to do anything about the Venetori squatting in that chantry? Only I've been back about 50 times and there's always a new group there. It can't be good for worship.
>>502840112Thence the post.
>>502840454The church doesn't discriminate. Those venatori just want to be friends with Rook
>>502840757And smell Rook...
>>502840916just imagine riding into battle beside rook... if only the Venitori knew what an ADHD ridden autist they really are
>>502839554It was a kino entrance ngl.

Every time I try to play a human in Origins I get bored.
>>502842764Then go dilate instead.
>>502842764Then don't play human
>>502843101You're maaaad.
Are Amell and Mahariel the only wardens who get mentioned in da2?
>>502842018ABSOLUTE KINOPLEX
>>502843335is that an iron maiden on the left?
>>502832715Explain this meme to me
>>502843636No Cousland gets mentioned.
>>502842018veilguard is so fucking kino
>>502844181Looks like a stone statue.
Btw where is the blowie scene in Inquisition? Was that already too spicy in 2014?
Why did Coryoheus say the Throne of the Gods was empty? Didn't he see the knife-ears there?
https://youtu.be/FQLNrZiDFz4?si=4AJyWBcOpbh1nYEh I never knew this but Fenris can help you out
>>502845363Please understand, they didn't think about the lore for more than 5 seconds other than looking for every mention of slavery and racism to remove.
>>502845363Mystery niggas were hiding
>>502829147She is joking, my HoF's dwarfcock CAN satisfy her
>>502845695Why is the Arishok so misoginistic?
>>502845695Why was the Arishock so based?
>>502846157Trve qunari (the antaam) are
>>502845363It was tentacle orgy time when the magisters showed up so the throne room was empty... Why did Solas give them a throne room?
>>502846734I always assumed the black city was the mount Olympus of evanuris. Elgar’nan probably had a throne in their palace of the gods
>>502845363>the throne of the gods was empty>actually it wasn't empty, there were these 7 elven mages with egos bigger than the largest Titan that whispered to you in your dreams, but they didn't want to show themselves or escape for some reason despite calling you thereAnd there are people that claim nothing was ever retconned from the first three games
>>502847731It makes no sense, yeah, but Gaider confirmed the Black City was always supposed to be the elven god's prison, ever since DAO's conception. I guess he had planned for the reveal to go differently, while the new devs just wanted to confirm this years-long fan theory without wasting too much time explaining how it worked. We know the gods were "slumbering", "sleeping", while in there, so perhaps they could only communicate with the sidereal magisters in dreams; when they reached the Black City, the humans got blighted so quickly they didn't have time to look around and find the elven gods.
>>502839776Generous "gifts"
>spirit of justice/vengeance demon is so angry with the wrongs committed against people that he blows up the chantry starting a continent wide revolution >spite demon is a sassy brat who grrrs and uwu at you and loves to shout!!!! xD Whoever said this game was like Buffy was correct
>>502847731Being anal about it, it's not stated in either Trespasser or Veilguard that the Golden City itself was the prison Solas had confined the gods in. He just says it's where he sealed the Blight. Dalish myth implies that that's where the gods were, as they were said to reside in the "Eternal City", but then the Dalish are a bunch of hicks who think slave tattoos are traditional fashion.
>>502848360>but Gaider confirmed the Black City was always supposed to be the elven god's prison, ever since DAO's conceptionhe's finally weighed in on Veilguard post release then?
>>502848715weren't the gods imprisoned in the regret jail, which is why solas ended up there? Is regret jail the black city or the new thing he was transferring them into?
>>502848360>but Gaider confirmed the Black City was always supposed to be the elven god's prison, ever since DAO's conception.I've been seeing people say that he confirmed X or denied Y ever since Veilguard's release, but unless certain posts on Bluesky are hidden because I don't have an account, where does he post those answers?
>>502842018>All is lost>Not the Chosen one starts to play>allies arrive>banter and asskicking ensueskino...
>>502848715>it's not stated in either Trespasser or Veilguard that the Golden City itself was the prison Solas had confined the gods in. He just says it's where he sealed the BlightWhat? It's confirmed in Veilguard, Harding even has a small crisis over it because it means the Chant of Light is basically meaningless and she doesn't know what to tell her mother. Solas says it was an elven castle into which he trapped the Evanuris with the entirety of the Blight, and only a small portion of it trickled out when the magisters from Tevinter entered it. >>502849024He was trying to move the gods from the Black City into the "regret prison" because the Black City was becoming unstable. The artbook even reveals the devs had thought of letting the player visit the City, since it was something everyone had wanted to do since DAO, it would have been an important part of the finale.
i cant decide on a warden >:(
>>502849098>>502848731He talked about it in an interview: https://www.eurogamer.net/bioware-knew-the-deepest-secrets-of-dragon-age-lore-20-years-ago-and-locked-it-away-in-an-uber-plot-doc
>>502849526city female elf rogue
>>502849560>What's even more impressive, or exciting, is that back then he also envisaged a potential end state for the entire Dragon Age series - a point at which it would make no sense for the series to carry on. "I always had this dream of where it would all end, the very last plot," he says, "which I won't say because who knows, we could still end up there. But the idea that this uber-plot was this sort of biggest, finite... That the final thing you could do in this world that would break it was there as a 'maybe we would get to do that one day'... There was just the idea of certain big, world-shaking things that were seeded in that arc, some of which have already come to pass, like the return of Fen'Harel."Oh so Bioware did pretty much intend for this to be the DA finale then. Nuking the setting wasn't accidental.
>>502850048The nuking of the world might have been more accepted if it wasn’t off screen. Narratively a new age following what happens after Veilguard is a logical idea. The dragon age is over but the “x age” is dealing with this fallout. Though it still leaves me feeling pissed off. The south for DAfans means a lot esoeciallt Fereldan and to have it reduced to ground zero with all our characters and locations wiped away is shit.
>>502850048>>502850547Veilguard must be non-canon
>>502849361>He was trying to move the gods from the Black City into the "regret prison" because the Black City was becoming unstable.But there is a codex from him talking about how the gods are retards with 0 introspection which makes the prison last longer than it should. It's written in a way that implies they're already there.
>>502849560>"But yes, some of the big mysteries are being solved. I mean, will they one day definitively tell you about the Maker? Will we crack the big mysteries of the world and just make them answered finally? And does that ruin one of the central precepts that Dragon Age is founded upon? Maybe," he says.>"Ultimately, that lore, when you make it big and you hint at it and hint at it and hint at it, it becomes a Chekhov's Gun of sorts. Eventually you got to pony up."And that's exactly it. There's no more room for doubt. Everything is known and everything is elves. Elves created the Blight, elves fucked up the dwarves, elves fucked themselves up, elves, elves, elves. The Maker isn't technically disproven, but Andraste is heavily hinted to be yet another Mythal fragment or whatever this game calls it.

>>502832875im a femcel and i dunnoim not attracted to solas at all
>>502850048I really wish writers would give clear endings to their stories. I hate how every series gets milked until it's not profitable anymore because that means every seoes ends on a bad note.
>>502849817This and romance Zevran
>>502851562WRITERS will, but the the corp that owns the IP will prohibit it.
>>502832875Male elves are always desirable. For me its his sass, voice, and angsty romance.
>>502850048But they set up a new shadow villain. I think they wanted to get rid of anything Gaider and the old staff wrote.
>>502851448does it give any age for Rook anywhere?
>>502852072I couldn't seem to find it.
>>502851448>(Some characters also have a TTS voice assigned to them, and Solas’s is “PeterSad22k_HQ”, which makes me laugh/cry, as no other major character so far has had their TTS voice specified as being the “sad” variant.)Wtf
>>502849817but the da2 references ;-; i want to be speshul...
>>502851448So Harding was 19 in Inquisition. Why did her personality reverse.
>>502852036They will never create anything as interesting as what he did
>>502852817I'm more confused why the Inquisition made a 19 year old their chief scout.
>>502852932She was that good I guess
>>502851703Yeah, true.No one's going to convince me the "actually, the illuminati were manipulating all the bad guys!" was what the original writers ever intended. They just made up a random sequel hook.
>>502852835
>>502852817>>502853062>19yo turbo autist becomes chief scout due to overachieving autism>developes personality thanks to work, human contact and responsibilityBravo Bioware...Masterful character developement...
>>502851448>ISABELA>AGERANGE: 50>APPEARANCE: Well-aged but perfectly maintained warrior gear for close and brutal fighting.>Two possible appearances, depending on how the player resolves her past:>1. Dark black dyed hair>2. Red hair with streaks of greyWait she was actually a natural redhead all this time?
>>502853513>reeee>deal with itBased
>>502853513I hope Gaider blocked that fucking autist
>>502853513kek but none of that is his fault
>>502853610she was in Origins. Though admittedly I thought they'd retconned that.
>>502853513But Gaider had nothing to do with VG. Why bitch at him
finally done with the boring partthe real Inquisition can begin
>>502853513jesus shill up was absolutely on point
>CHARACTERDESCRIPTION: Once the heir to the First Talon and the Antivan Crows' best mage killer, Lucanis now bears scars both physically and mentally from his time as a brainwashed executioner for an evil mage cult. No longer the pragmatic assassin always in control, he wrestles with becoming what he’s spent his life hunting: a demon-possessed abomination. He longs to return to his former glory, but the monster inside him demands blood and vengeance. With his future hanging in the balance, Lucanis must decide whether to give into the demon or control it.Wow this sure sounds interesting but it's a piss poor description of the Coffeeman they wrote in the game.
>>502853513>as a fellow writerkek
>>502854094Well Lucanis was rewritten multiple times according to Busch. Saying that he was a challenge to work with.
>>502854094My impression I got of him in Tevinter Nights was very different to how he is in this game as well.
>>502853513>venting to a guy who wasnt even part of teamembarrassing, para-social relations as it finest
>>502854301I assume every character was rewritten a bunch. Why was a edgy assassin with a demon hard to nail.
>>502854614I guess him being a piece of shit killer for hire didn't mix well with the Disney vibes
>>502854614The art book says Emmerich was the only one who was created early and finished without change and it makes sense. He’s the only well written one. Davrin is a close second
>>502842018this is so much better than the crow's version lmao
>>502854807Probably. Sucks. >>502855113Based grandpa
>>502853513>for making her twitter handle Brood MommyOh wow, a troon fetishizing women getting raped, color me surprised.
>>502855113Emmrich was too perfect to change.
>>502854094>a brainwashed executioner for an evil mage cultWas this EVER said in the game? I fully admit I pretty much know nothing about Lucanis because I let Treviso get blighted and didn't even do his first companion quest so I assume I missed like 70% of his content.
>>502855213Strange. Veilguard doesn't address the Brood mothers
This games funny as fuck. A 15 year old is recruiting orphans to be child soldiers and its presented as the cutest thing ever. Was there a Congolese warlord on the writing team?
>>502855542>not liking child soldiers What are you, a little bitch?
>>502855264Nope. I fucked Treviso as well but did all quests the game threw at me and Lucanis is not explored at all as a character. No past, no Spite, nothing. You get muh treviso and muh grandma and his "hardened" ending is throwing his literal traitor cousin into jail instead of fucking beheading him lmao
>>502855542>As young as we can make him but no older than 15

https://www.tiktok.com/@cozmodeus/video/7438819487027154206?_t=8rXAtEyA3m2&_r=1Cleaned up version of Solas and Barric arguing at the Ritual Site
>>502856097What anime doesn't
so where are the Tevinter slaves in Veilguard?
>>502855542Why wouldn't Viago be First Talon instead of Lucanis? He's clearly the superior choice.
>>502856570I have trouble siding with Varric against Solas in anything after how fucking retarded he was about the Cole thing. He will literally just run his mouth while knowing NOTHING.
>>502856695Don't think about it
>>502856791>I have trouble siding with Varric against Solas in anythingYour namefagging made that more than obvious
>>502856791But the game frames Varric as right.
>>502856695
>>502857097How?
Only Solas was a little bitch about turning physical. Every other spirit turned elf was happy with the situation
>>502856695The concept art is full of them. The codex also mentions them plenty. I guess the choice to not spotlight them in the environs or in cutscenes was a directorial decision.
>>502856791There is no good choice regarding Cole. Even Weekes said so (before he was mentally ill)
>>502856702I think he's planning regicide and becoming king instead going by some stuff he says. Its governor Ivencis worst nightmare!
>>502857356I'm not talking about the choice I'm talking about Varric's """reasoning"""
>>502856702The future king can't juggle carrying Antiva with carrying the Crows
are we all in agreement that rook is the best DA protagonist?
why is crow rook de riva, am i viago's kid now
>>502857167Look at the final cutscene of both Human and Spirit Cole. The scene where he wipes his own memory is clearly supposed to be off-putting. The writers even said that Human Cole was originally supposed to be the good ending, but they changed their mind into "both are valid" when they realized making an autistist's good ending be to become more normal doesn't fit well with their inclusive and "everyone is valid" ideas.
>>502857610always have been
>>502857014did they even play the games?
>>502851448>Age range: 29That's not a range that is a very specific age
>>502858104>nothing in any loreTypical weasel words man
>>502858104Is EA App as bad as people say? I haven't play DAI since 2022, when I could still use Origin.
>>502851448>Teia and Viago are only 28 and 32What a twist, same with Neve being 30Cyrian being 30 means Bellara is actually older than Neve too, as she's the older sister
>>502857924The datamine says he's 32. Young dad. Is Rook like 18? Is that why they are retarded?
>>502858494Yes. My games were bricked until I installed some patched dll thing that lets you use Origin without having the app installed
>THE INQUISITOR>AGERANGE: 30>APPEARANCE: Inquisition uniform under a long cloak with hood.Yeah about the last part... fuck you and fuck you especially for no hoods in the game
>>502858596So I can still download games and link Steam and whatnot if I use that Origin rollback on github?
>>502858572Yea
>>502858572>Is Rook like 18? Is that why they are retarded?I've not been able to find any way to explain why Rook is the way they are other than them being like 18-21. That was even before I saw the ages of the people in the factions who are mid 20s and still outrank them. Either Rooks retarded, young or young AND retarded
>>502858664Enjoy your pyjamas AGAIN inquisitor
>>502857793>autistist's good ending be to become more normalThis is what I recognized Varric's thinking to be and it offended me. We just got done having a conversation about how spirits are already people and he's like>Actually he's not enough of a person because he talks weird which makes me uncomfortable sometimes and is not like my other friendsLike literally go fuck yourself Varric.
HoF saved Ferelden at 18-20 and Alistair and Morrigan were similarly young, nothing wrong with Rook being the same
>Morrigan is 40Nah my hagwife is at least 45 shut up
>>502859415Rook acts way younger. Well maybe with Alistair
Anyone else that actually plays Veilguard treating it as a different canon from theirs? I didn't get to pick anything and some returning characers alive in my save should absolutely be present with the Wardens etc. this is just a completely different world state from mine. Which is why it also doesn't bother me as much that everything goes to shit. Not my world.
>Doing Minthratos story>Aelia this, Aelia that>Didnt even see her>All is going way too smooth>Villain is absolutely faceless and underdeveloped>On other hand there are shady Threads dudes and Rana who is just trading her face with no other real purpose, while looking suspicious, and also Maevaris with her big ambitions>Hey, just go kill Aelia, she is there>Okay, there will be a twist in the last moment. Real villain mastermind will reveal himself as Rana, or Threads fags or Maevaris, or all three together, making the trap for Neve and Rook. Its spy detective themed story after all.>...>No, you just kill that bitch Aelia and thats it.The writing for this game is so uninspiring, its like reading some fucking catalogue or morning newspaper.
>>502860210No. And everyone in the previous games are busy saving their homes/mostly the South, not bumming around the North unless they're from there
>>502860405>And everyone in the previous games are busy saving their homes/mostly the Southyou mean dying
Which romances in the series are virgins?
>>502860924You, Rook
>>502860924Alistair
>>502860924AlistairMerrill
>>502860210It literally is a different canon from what it was supposed to be. We were robbed of the actual game, this one isn't canon
>>502860924Alistair, Merrill, Lucanis.
>>502861803Lucanis isn’t a virgin. He literally lets a man called spite enter him constantly
did they really remove greatswords
Do you think the Inquisitor and Josephine ever fucked, or was she a no sex before marriage kind of lass?
>>502860924Maybe Josephine too?
>>502842018How can white divine even compete
>>502862090She stopped a Blight
>>502862057>>502862086>friends with leliananope
>>502862184Since when HoF or Rook is a white divine
I just want you guys to know my Lavellan is a virgin. Presumably until the Fade prison honeymoon happens.
>>502862057The Inquisitor tells her they're gonna fuck when they get back to Skyhold during What Pride Had Wrought
>>502862202Well, Leliana's quite protective of her.
>>502862202Leliana says that Josephine is an innocent in matters of love
>>502861871>. He literally lets a man called spite enter him constantlyA spirit. Doesn't count.
They didn't actually make a rogue class without a backstab right
>>502863443Show Vigao already reee
>>502863443eh, he really needs the facial hair, unlike lucanis who's a genuine pretty boy
>>502863820I don't know, I like it. Reminds me of Peter Cushing.
>>502863443>>502864110Literal twins
>>502855113i cant believe hes only 50 thats not even old
>>502858104Honestly I'm not too mad about the archdemon thing, we knew they were special but there's not much else they could be. Either related to elves or just sentient dragons I guess.
>>502864370I thought he was in his late sixties or early seventies. I guess that's hard living in Thedas for you. Wynne was in her forties but she looked like she was pushing eighty.
>>502847731Your inability to read properly don't mean things were retconned.
Somewhere out there, a Lucanis sister is going nuclear
>>502865189Do they still exist even? There's only so much cucking one can take in
Where there loud complaints back in the day when Aerie would get with Haer'dalis?
>>502865570There must've been considering there are mods that disable it.
>>502866118Well that didn't take long
>>502836651Looks a little too... "elfy"
>>502866118Elgarfuckers are doing it for attention and I don't respect them
>>502866510I'm sure the feeling is mutual.
>>502863443Put it back
are we supposed to be inviting the griffon to sex?
>>502866118His voice is hot. Shoutout to Nere bg3, but he's ugly and purple!
>>502864603>Wynne was in her forties but she looked like she was pushing eighty.Its very funny. Sheryl Chee, her writer, said 40 felt old to her at 20 something lol .
This is literally the only good moment in the entire game. Glad this shit is over because holy fuck this is probably the worst AAA blockbuster i've ever had the displeasure of playing.
Emmerich>Davrin>Neve>Harding>Lucanis>Bellara>Taash
>>502864370It's a medieval setting, DEI shit aside, 50 is all that the nature gave you back then.
I'm trying real hard to like her, and there's nothing majorly wrong with her character, but despite my best efforts I have thus far failed to generate any strong feelings of any sort pertaining to Neve. Please help.
>>502867798I like her, she's the only mature lady on the team
>>502867702fine, ok i wont complain im glad old man appreciators got a big win
>>502867702Children dying young and war drives the average down Anon. There were people who lived into their 80's.
>>502867798>leather styled like serpent scales>embroidered snakes on shawlShe shoulda worn a hat or a hood like a cobra or some shit.
>>502867798I like her, she's reliable and gets into all kinds of nonsense because of her job
>>502868102He could still have a bit more meat on his bones. I wish the Qunari spy or Sareebas companion made it into the final game.
>>502868609No you get Trash
Does glyph of neutralization in DAO block healing spells too?
>>502857419You're just mad Varric was right and Cole actually gets some pussy out of it.
>>502868845...
>>502859107>Rook is barely an adult>most love interests would be over 10 years older at minimumReally makes you think
She cares more than I do.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bqKX6i3MBo
>>502869387I would groom Rook desu
>>502868609The spy companion for the third time would be boring, the vashot idea was great, but bioware management happened
>>502869358Set up a net and you could play badminton on that fivehead
>>502869095No, him getting with Maryden made me happy
>>502869486Solas is already on it
>>502869589>The spy companion for the third time would be boringTrue but from looks alone I would've preffered it over what we got with Iron Bull. Sure the James Bond, dapper archetype is overdone for spy characters. But I would've liked it more than what we've got. >the vashot idea was great, but bioware management happenedIt definitely would've. I still wish Ketojan from DA2 were a companion. We came so close yet so far once again.
>>502869448>called taash a she???? Uhm, do a Bharv?
>>502870000We all knew it was performative
>>502851448How many years between DA2 and 4? No way Isabela is 50 now
>>502869974See, I actually liked Bull. Though I guess his voice acting helped a lot. One of my favourite lines of his was early in the game where he was like 'Or maybe thing's will sort themselves out, all the soldiers will go home and grow fat. It won't happen...but it could.'
>>50287013220 years from DA2 Act 1 to DA4
>>502870000Based Isabela
>>502870000Extrabased
>>502851448if irelin is 25 then bellara is probably in her 20’s too
>>502870510Epler said she was 30s so lol
>>502870610why is she grooming 20 year old minors?
>>502870714Because Rook is so gosh darn lovable
>>502867798I romanced her because she is the only not one acting like a teenager/retard but ye I'm not exactly feeling much
>>502870714Rook is a cute retard
>>502870510Cyrian is 30, and he's Bellara's little brother so she's 31+
>>502867798I think they should've given her more dry/sarcastic remarks because the VA seems to do better with them and it'd help counter the other characters being too nice. As it stands she's done nothing to anger me but nothing to charm me so she's just kind of there.
>>502842018Viago did it better
>>502872147Did it all
it's pretty funny going from people complaining the black divine's completely missing from VG, to finding out he's chuuni elfaboo batman
>>502872675Tevinter is doomed
>>502872349I am assuming this is them in the mural, The Illuminati?
>>502872769And that's a good thing!
>>502867798>>502871421You can tell she's a holdover from an early stage of the game's development when they still thought of it as a spy fantasy where Minrathous would feature in a much more expansive way. Her LA Confidential shtick is tonally off from the storyline of unraveling elven myth and casting down gods, and Minrathous as an area was downsized from a tiered megalopolis to just the streets of Dock Town with any sharp edges shaved smooth.
>>502871901He looked pretty baller walking down the stairs in that cutscene.
>>502872675Makes it 1000 times betterOn one hand, I wish he had more screen time. On the other, considering how abysmal dav writing is, I'm glad that he's relatively unharmed by it
Which is objectively the correct choice?
>>502873457Bottom right, duhRook ain't no bitch
>>502872993Stop making me long for the old version of the game
>>502873457Your choices matter
>>502873457I'm so Solasbrained I know which options would result in >Solas slightly approveseverytime you're talking to him.
>No Tevinter Noble Origin>No Saarebas defecting to the Imperium origin>No Antaam General Origin>No Avvar Spirit Origin>No Agents of Fen'harel IRA-esque Origin where you smoke Magisters>No Falon'dins Black Champion/Lost Evanuris origin>No Shaper Dwarf Origin>No Kal-Sharok Female Dwarf Companion looking to make the Dwarven Empire great again>No Rivani Seer companion>No Sexy Seheron Fog Dancer Companion>No Donark Elf Companion>No Kieran Companion>No Sexy Female Antivan Crow in tight fitting leather CompanionFuck bros, where did it all go so horribly, horribly wrong?
>>502873457This game gives me an autistic need to grab a notebook and write down every little piece of dialogue from Origins, 2 and Inquisition and just draw my own conclusions from those notes.
>>502867519bellara doing this was so much more satisfying than neve bitching about muh city for the ten thousandth time
>>502871206she's like those tumblr millenials who wrote superwholock yaoi on fanfiction.net
>>502874117When EA cancelled Joplin for god knows what reason
>>502874458So they could make DA Destiny
>Tevinter is ruled by the Magisterium, who are mages>Dalish clans are led by Keepers, who are mages>Nevarra is de facto controlled by the Mortalitasi covens, who are mages>Rivaini abide the counsel of their seers, who are magesIdk about the Anderfels and Antiva, but from the looks of it the turborepressive approach to dealing with mages in Thedas appears to more or less exclusively a southern thing, and only in human society. And despite this abominations are exceedingly rare north of the Free Marches, it's really a southern problem more than anything. What's more, the institution of the Templars and such came down to a specific reading of a single sentence in the Chant of Light. And as we now know, the Chant is entirely bullshit and based on the legacy of elf wizards.Point is that the south is a dump full of smelly hicks.
>>502874458>god knows what reasonTheir reason was that Anthem failed catastrophically, just as everyone but the people at EA always knew it would.
>>502874848That's why they got nuked in VG
>>502874117>People still hoping for playable originsHaven't the writers already told everyone that the amount of work on the origins vs the amount of people that pick anything not human noble just isn't worth it? We were lucky they brought back non-human playable races.
>>502874848>Dalish clans are led by Keepers, who are magesThe rest are valid but the amount of times a Keeper or apprentice messed with magic that led to their entire clan getting killed is higher then I think anyone would like.
>>502875296ive played dao multiple times and never touched human noblei just dont like it
>>502875296Sorry but no you're not convincing me that reusing assets and the voice actors you already hired for the rest of the game to make ONE MORE QUESTLINE that is going to do do wonders for the roleplaying aspect of your roleplaying game is "not worth it."Stop eating up whatever shit excuses the devs shovel into your mouth.
>>502875562Zathrian's was the HoF deciding to murder them for shits and gigglesDalish Warden's clan dying was just Marethari goading them to go full retard
>>502875296I used to always start human noble, but always got bored and quit midwayIt's only when I chose something else that I finally beat the game
>>502875794There's also the clan in the Masked Empire that made a deal with demons and got wiped out - also there's the Dalish mage wondering the Hinterlands that will admit if you're an elf that her clan summoned demons and got killed - also there's the apprentice to the clan in the Exalted Plains that ran off to do blood mage and got burnt to a crisp.
>>502875296Then we go all in on hyooman>Avvar chieftain's heir>Chasind witch's child>Orlesian nobleman's bastard>Tevinteran Liberati>Antivan whoreson
>>502876167>There's also the clan in the Masked Empire that made a deal with demons and got wiped out - also there's the Dalish mage wondering the Hinterlands that will admit if you're an elf that her clan summoned demons and got killedsame bitch Mihris
>>502874458Nobody with their head on straight wanted a live-service Dragon Age game based on Anthem, which was in turn an unwanted ripoff of Destiny (pre-Taken King Destiny at that). That it never materialized is a good thing.
>>502875296then let me be a half-elf mutt theyre still "human"
Varric looked really damn majestic in this bit.
>>502876903In any case I'm glad he's finally dead.
>>502876903bonus pikachu Solas >>502877031They really were milking him and Isabella
>>502877136they milked isabela so much her boobs deflated
>>502876759Ah so she is.Still don't trust dalish mages with shit though.
>>502876903>Varric's other option he tried to "sell" Solas was just>Solas like, don't do it lol. Please?So glad he's dead rest in piss Varric you LONG outstayed your welcome.
>>502877315Was it really? Jesus, glad I just picked the one option.
>>502877136Isabela is fine because I like her.
Will she still feed the Inquisitor their eyeballs with Varric dead?
I like varric
>>502877517My inquisitor punted that little cunt into the deep roads when Varric wasn't looking.
Veilguard is non-canonsimple as
>>502877315>literally only thing needed to make it work was just adding 2 more people asking him to stop being a KarenVarric was right, as always.
>>502878198>2 women he loves and respectsftfy
>>502829162That's very amusing but it's not +15 minutes of banter from Lucanis about drinking coffee.
>>502875161>>502876837Retards. Joplin was a dream project. Morrison, which is DAV-alpha, was a live-service game. The game got rebooted twice.
>>502878270*A dude who socked him for being an annoying cunt and skipped his loredump in Trespasser , and his ex
>>502829162>>Varric: Ah, that old chestnut.Varric, why do you know what's that like
>>502878396>ex
>What will they call you once this is over?Unless I'm mistaken I think Rook still goes by Rook.
>>502878717You gotta stop coping, Bellara.
So how do you guys cope?
>>502879370Coffee.
>>502879250kek
>>502879370This >>502879421, alting, and fanfiction
>>502879421Haha it's funny because that's the entirety of the crow guy's personality and dialogue. Did you know he likes coffee?
>>502878961He almost spilled the beanssssss!
>>502873986Solas almost always approves of questions
>>502873457Damn, and I thought the ME3 laser color choice was difficult. This is hard.
>>502879989You're right
>>502879724I was too slow to catch that flick of genuine regret before he masked up.
>>502880297That was more him getting a scheming grinch face
>>502880661Please don't make me replay that :-:
I'm doing a play through of the whole series since I haven't touch it since DA2. What race/gender for warden anons?
>>502880661There's a really slight flash of surprise or regret right after he stabs him. The bit where he stops himself from saying it is definitely a scheme though. He came up with it quickly too.
I still hate how in Inquisition elves are stuck being dalish. They at least could have let elven mages have an option to be a circle mage.
>>502881265I did catch that thankfully.
>>502881353An elven mage isn't going to be sent to represent their circle in the mother of all political meetings.
That's a big moon
>>502881353City elves really got shoved aside in Inquisition. I remember people complaining about it even at the time.
>>502879370My own head delusions
So just got the true ending on Nightmare. 10/10 GOTY
>>502880932mage elf
>>502883016>>502883016>>502883016>>502883016just like my japanese cartoons
>>502881504He's grimacing so hard his lips have almost disappeared
>>502883459Viper...
So Veilguard's pretty damn good if you consider it as the standalone reboot it is. With the death of Keep and world states, do you think Bioware will actually give a shit about any of these decisions made in this game though? That is, if we even get another Dragon Age.
>>502881704>An elven mage isn't going to be sent to represent their circle in the mother of all political meetings.Are you forgetting that Fiona the leader of the mage rebellion was an elf?
>>502883459Well they got the hammy villain right
>>502883953>So Veilguard's pretty damn good if you consider it as the standalone reboot it is.No.
>>502883953No and no
>>502883953If there's another Dragon Age they'll probably either set it in the far North or a 100 years or so in the future so they can ignore any details from the game.I wouldn't expect another DA game for another 10+ years if at all at this point unless this game is making more money then I think it is.
>>502883953It's fine as a standalone, and I think they would just end up canonizing specific world states for whatever future they have planned. Maybe a passing mention after a lengthy time jump.
>>502883459Ashur PLEASE
>Dagna will never be romanceable
>>502883953No, it's a bad game and bad dragon age. I tell you this after spending more than 150h in it.
>>502885091Built for Sera
It's time.
I want to ignore most everything in Veilguard. I want to pretend I didn't happen
>>502883953I think if they make a game in the South again they'll bring back a Keep like system or have the choices that transfer selectable in game. Plus choices in DAV
>>502883953Even overlooking the connections to the previous games and dropped concepts the game still feels too safe for me. I've been picking only the stern options in the most recent game and it still twists to get approval. Bellara says she wants to take a nap, I tell her to keep it short, she approves. They'd probably do better to just release a standalone character creator.
>>502885242Davrin should've died at Weisshaupt. Fuck him
>>502885438Ill sacrifice him on my warden rook.
>>502885438This is why he got the griffon, and not you
>>502885242A warden or a titan infused dwarf fall in a blighted hole that goes deep underground and no body is recovered. It's feels like the fade choice where the character may be intended to return later since the choices are between the two companions most likely to survive.
>>502885943>fade choiceSo we will never see them again
i only play as elven mages
>>502887082Same minus Hawke

Lace, listen. You are not alone. Whatever's out there, we'll face it together. I promise. Together.
Is veilguard understandable without having played DAI?
>>502883953It's an awful dragon age game, make it actually standalone and the gameplay could carry it but I can't ignore the lore rape.
>>502888529Yeah but why
>>502883953i'd rather play da2 5 times over
>>502888529you would hate it if you played the first three games

>>502888529Sure, but you lose a lot from skipping
>>502888529that's the only way it can be understandable actually
>>502889238Maybe it's that hooded uniform from the leaks
>>502889238I thought it was a scarf since people had different Lavellens
I miss him...

>>502893009i wish they kept his hair or he grew it back
Almost makes me wish to get the bad ending and beat the crap out of him while dragging him to the fade.
>>502893485He can't, ancient elves go bald
>>502893519>tfw bad ending is just Rook beating the ever living shit out of Solas for the rest of eternity It's the true good ending if we're being honest
>>502852817She mentally aged in reverse, that is quite the accomplishment if you ask me.
>>502893794Worse I can do to him after this is expose him to Sera 2.0 (Taash) as revenge
I love this little tidbit of lore
>>502893794What is this delusional bullshit? Solas stabbed Rook in the fucking gut and Solas got a boo boo on his hand. Rook is bleeding out if not getting stabbed even more times.
>>502894083Taash is way less obnoxious than Sera desu, latter's dialogue is beyond obnoxious to read and listen to, alongside saying retarded shit
Should've thought twice about soiling Varric's memory, you eggy fuck

Ok, I might've teared up a little, but I've always been a weepy bitch.
I like Trash's mom more than her
>>502896404He doesn't need edits
>>502896416Decent send off.So Solas was keeping us from realizing Varric's death because he was essentially grooming us to switch places with him since he can't face or accept his regrets?captcha arpgh
>>502896417Her mom's a loser, can't stop coping about the Qun and trying to act like she's a good faithful qunari girl even after sneaking out of the place with her daughter mora than a decade ago
>>502896769>Decent send off.LolwatHim dying off screen, no one acknowledging it until le big twist reveal and the sheer implausibility of Rook just hallucinating him was infuriating. All Rook had to do is somehow acknowledging the hallucination once. But I guess everyone in VG is mentally ill so they wouldn't notice.
>>502897692If the Qun is so great why even smuggle her out and become Tal Vashoth to begin with? I bet the Qun has roles for fire breathers.
>>502897957Roles bad enough to make even a loyal citizen want to smuggle their baby out
Didn't Taash say you can leave the Qun whenever you want or was I imaging that?
>>502898565You can leave whenever you want. Unless you're somebody who actually matters to the system/are a mage.
>>502897760Blood magic
My Solas plushie is arriving tomorrow
>>502899123where tf do you get dragon age plushies
>>502897760Play the game
>>502899123Thank you for financing the oceanfront mansions for the EA execs. Very kind of you.
>>502899925No YOU play the game.
>>502899337Etsy, in this case
>>502899123You better post it
>>502884730This piece of shit has sold a third of that other great success, Andromeda, which got no DLC and resulted in no new entries to the ME series since the LE in 2021 (and likely nothing before 2026). Dragon Age is deader than a door knob
>>502901129A-at least they spread trans awareness. Fuck all those jobs that got lost by killing this franchise.
>>502899930EA doesn't make custom made solas sex dolls
>>502902324Well will get paid once they sue the producers.
>>502899123Is it this one?https://www.etsy.com/dk-en/listing/1159552035/solas-from-dragon-age-custom-plush-from
>>502902324That you know of
>>502901129> sold a third of that other great success, AndromedaIs there a source other then 'anonymous sources', rumors, and 'my friend at BioWare'?
>>502902640It is not that one
>>502902698I think I saw one of these in the halloween section at home depot this year.
>>502902698>Materials: bones
>finally meet the villain of Emmrich's quest line >that music plus her sheet hamFuck, now I want a Nevarra spinoff that's all about being the fun police to all the crazy ass necromancers that infest this country
>>502903558Starring Cassandra
>>502903558I was delighted when I realized that the hand of glory was literally Thing
>Emmrich thinks tabletop is cringe Bros, we hired the wrong necromancer
>>502845938She is actually joking yeah
I don't care if it wasn't nominated, Veilguard is my RPG and GOTY
>>502906283same, its the only new game i enjoyed this year
>>502906283(You)
>>502893121the edited is still black-passing.
>suicide mission>have emmlich go to dismantle the ward>cinematic plays of him landing in the middle of venatori, flourishing his staff, dropping his glammor to go full lich and destroy venatorifucking kino idc
>>502905757The cope lmao
>>502899123Lady, you are like 40 years old
>>502902698That is terrifying. Why
>>502896769>keeping us from realizingHow do you not realize that immediately
wait doesnt the grey wardens have 1 mage limithow is anders and mage warden existing at the same time explained, i havent gotten that far yet
>>502902698And people say Morrifags are obsessed
>>502914237why would they have a mage limit
>>502867798>unemotional voice>always that smug smile on her face>tryhard at mannerismShe feels fake and I'm not sure if it was writer's idea or just shitty execution of the character, it's hard to not confuse it in this game
>>502914817I believe it's mentioned in the Mage origin but it is said in Origins that the Wardens are only allowed to recruit one mage (presumably only one Circle mage to be precise).Pretty sure it's a point that just gets abandoned /forgotten or maybe was exclusive to the Fereldan chapter of Wardens.
>>502914817in dao its said that there can only be one mage warden per circle
>>502879370Started another playthrough to give mage a chance to prove itself as a good class and check out how fancy is romancing the Lich Emmerich.
>>502915020Everything you listed is why people want to fuck her though
>>502833443Better in every stage of the game.Staff only starts getting better when you specc into death caller or evoker.
>>502885242>Hardling>or the nice guy who grew on me and who just got that connection with a young cute griffon, a griffon itselfIt was probably the easiest choice in this game.
>>502915562That's like saying shield only gets good if you don't ignore every shield perk
>>502887380>wasnt voiced by Liam OBrienThe fuck? He sounds so much like him.
>>502916009No, he voiced Niall.
>>502915664Also>Harding wants to pass on her discovery that the titans are angry, which the dwarves have already largely chosen to ignore>Davrin wants to revive the griffon species and pass on his completed monster manual, which would make the world a safer place for good people everywhereI mean one of these will actually pay out in a meaningful way.
VIPER!
>>502917402Harding already spilled the deep lore to the Kal Sharok lads anyway, Orzammar can get bent.
If we were to get a Tresspasser style DLC for Veilguard, what would you want to see?
>>502920919That it was all just Varric's fanfic and that now the real story after Trespasser begins.
>>502920919we won't cause everyone except a tiny team that does patches moved on to mass effect, but anywayI would like to see some of the political aftermath in tevinter tbqh
>>502920919I'd rather have a citadel style DLC. I don't want an epilogue lead in to whatever comes next.
>>502921067citadel like dlc could work because the writing is stupid in the base game which is similar enough to that dlc
>>502921049>cause everyone except a tiny team that does patches moved on to mass effectDoes bioware only have 1 team in general that works on their big titles?
Why are elves so lean
>>502920919Citadel style dlc would fit better I think, would be the perfect time to include extra past game reactivity too to explain what was happening to all of the previous characters while Rook was busy saving Northern Thedas, and assuage all the EVERYTHING FROM THE PREVIOUS GAMES ARE DEAD AND USELESS panic
>>502921901They eat nothing but fruits, nuts and lean meats like rabbit, also they run around in the forest all dayMeanwhile dwarves are sucking down quarter pounder after quarter pounder
>>502921901Felicia Day elf scares me.
>>502921857I think if anything Veilguard was all hands on deck to get it out the door. They've always shared writers between the teams though.
>Lucanis sisters are now coping about how much lesser, and unsuitable the Neve/Lucanis relationship is compared to with Rook, because she doesn't want to fuck while Spite watcheskek
>>502922192>I think if anything Veilguard was all hands on deck to get it out the door.Yeah im just saying if they generally have 1 team, then Veilguard could not have been "in development" for 10 years since that team would have worked on both ME:A and whatever Anthem was
>>502922334MEA was mostly done by the studio known today as ea motive. Only the writers were from proper BW. But yeah back then they had 2 different production teams. Nowdays it's only 1 and some smaller pre production teams. Even those smaller teams were helping to get veilguard out the door torwards the end.
solas is kind of a massive shithead desu
>>502922334Veilguard also had a lot of dev turnover and development on Anthem and Andromeda was famously brutal. I don't think there's a lot of any of those teams left.
>>502922576>>502922720I guess i always got the impression that Bioware was this really big studio considering how big of an impact the original mass effect trilogy had
is every romance scene with bellara just>oh okay that's nice :/
>>502923126It gets better torwards the end of the game.
>>502922916Bioware has never really been as big as their cultural impact. Plus a combination of EA making insane demands and Bioware running itself into the ground with mismanagement has hurt the studio a lot.It's honestly impressive they're still around and have managed to release a string of largely okay games.
>>502922624A rare dwarf rook
i have a question about veilguard combatif i have the skill upgrade where they perform the skill automatically in combat, do i still need to have the skill set?
>tfw keep getting into games with ancient mystery niggas who need to do the very bad thing to make things like the good old days, but also feel very bad about it because they can't stop seeing modern day people as being real people too I swear to god this shit's getting bizarrely common to run into it 3 times now
Let me see if I have this right.>Dread Wolf is designed to be a sequel that takes place following the events of Trespasser>It is a multiplayer life service game that would have updates, aims to be like a Destiny type game>All of the DA staff gets pulled off of it to work on Anthem>Anthem flops>Staff gets put back on Dread Wolf>Covid hits>Restructure of the game to a single player game>Game development essentially goes back to the beginning/starting over because of this>Rebranded to Veilguard Is that right?
>>502831784Issues in DA are superficial mostly. Over using same areas. Having to run back and forth. Enemies appearing in thin air. how some areas look. Overusing same assets. This all make game incredibly booring really quickly. Writing and companions are good. But game just gets too stale. Game could have benefit from not having it take place in same areas whole time. If act 1 was dust town. Slums. Quick visit to docks and low town. Once visiting high town for chantry. And it would be off limit for you otherwise. Act 2 then take place in low town. Docks. More visit to high town and gallows. Act 3 for whole town. Free access to gallows, high town. Then each Act would have unique outside of city areas. And your place of residency would be dependent on Act. In Act 1 I would be in dust town. In Act 2 hanged man. Act 3 in hawk estate. You would see progression through out the whole game.
>>502925347>It is a multiplayer life service gameThere are still bits of it, making me think Veilguard was built on top of live-service build>lighthouse feels like the mix of the player hub and player housing system>gather the team to do the mission is extremely mobile gamey/genshin impact style gacha>loot chest animation looks and sounds like something from Overwatch or other games with loot boxes>the whole writing and constant reiteration of the story, on top of Pixar style is speaking of targeting the kids/young teens specifically, and those are all about mobile games and gacha nowadays
>>502837821It would be fine if everything wasn't just elven magic. Old gods could have been independent force. Maybe they helped elven gods against titan in hope for getting that sweet titan juice. But elven gods betrayed them. Old gods retaliate by empowering humans. Eventually they teach humans how to breach veil. Becouse Old gods know elven gods were there. And they want to steal their power. Not knowing that power has gone bad and turned into blight. Now blight seeks out old gods. And in way old gods got what they wanted. Power of titans.But nope. It's just knife ears. Everything is knife ears.
>>502925750I mean, gather the team and do mission is the style of the Mass Effect 2 which I think they were aiming to recreate
>>502925750>>loot chest animation looks and sounds like something from Overwatch or other games with loot boxesThis would have been such a minor and easy thing to change it's incomprehensible they instead went "nah, too much effort"
>>502840454After debacle of docks. He dosent promice anything anymore. You know. One where he promices to keep docks clear of bad guys. Only for it to be swarming with bad guys 24/7
>>502926142meh it was already long hinted they were the same/closely connected so better to just commit rather than pulling something unexpected out the ass
>>502926142I seriously have no idea how anyone was blindsided by this
>>502925347Orginal concept wasn't GAAS. But it's not clear when it became that. Team was working on their own to concept of what game would be before inqusition came out. That's why trespasser has so clear path to next game. Devlopment of DA4 went to shit pretty quickly after trespasser. And eventually everyone was pulled to work on Anthem. It's not clear if game was allready live service at this point or not. Or if both were floated. As for rebounding. It probably happened really late. Nobody says word veilguard until ending slide. Dreadwolf was probably dropped becouse there isn't that much dreadwolf in there.
>>502926157Game is very much like mass effect. Archive spirit is VI. Lighthouse. Team building is more like mass effect then dragon age. Talks whit solas is reticent of talks with illusive man. Blight remind more reaper goons then Blight from old games. 3 person teams instead of 4. Enemy Barrier/armour system of mass effect 2 and 3. Companion skills usage. Non contracted companions.
>>502924145No
>>502926408Becouse its stupid for everything bad to be just elf.I didn't play 3 games thinking. All the racist and slavers are 100% right. Their only mistake was to be too kinda to elves. They deserve worse then they got.
>>502921901I made her into an actual elf, Felicia Day's mug takes me out of the game.
I want to live in a world where DAI got the sequel it deserved
Wow anon it looks like we have to place that crystal on the pedestal! :)
>>502831147>that>quality banterYou are the reason Dragon Age became loke Veilguard.You and all the other shiteaters.
>>502930694You mean it became kino?
>>502929437good mod

>emmerich wants to be a lich to help protect the world forever>the liches have overseen multiple blights, the rift tear, Corypheus and now the Evanuris and have done nothing

>>502932746She doesn't have a personality to begin with, it's just Felicia Day.
>>502936068>necromancy in Dragon Age is not real necromancySo what do you call it when Emmrich reanimates corpses and summons the spirits of the deceased to do Q&A?
>>502933828Uhh Redcliffe?

>>502937042>"criticism"lmao
>>502937042He hasn't worked for Bioware for 10 years and has had zero input in Veilguard. It's like screaming at a nurse because the chef didn't cook your meal right.

Now that we're talking about Gayder again, he's been posting behind the scenes stuff on Morriganhttps://x.com/TSmagicbag/status/1859082565610504284
>>502867798>there's nothing majorly wrong with her characterYes there is its a pajeet that presented as le hardboiled detective in saturday morning cartoon.The game presenting her as a suppsedly serious character when she acts like a parody of it is the cognitive dissonance that puts you off.Or maybe that she probably smells of cowdung.

body hair mods lets gooo
>>502938574not as cursed as beardless lucanis
>>502932027No, you trooned out.
I just realized the only time we actually GET INTO Minrathous is during the beginning and end of the game, and both times the city is getting destroyed.We spent most of our time in Tevinter in fucking dock town.Quite literally the excitement for Dragon Age after Inquisition is that we fucking finally visit Tevinter and see how fucking ass backwards it is compared to the culture in Ferelden and not single bit of that was touched at all in the entirety of Veilguard.
>>502938574Vincent Price wasn't often seen without his immaculate mustache in his later years, but he didn't look bad without it.
>he just keeps the spirit of his evil colleague locked up in his room after everything's said and done I swear to god this is like the setup to a future Scooby Doo movie
>>502938935Such is the nature of fucked up development bro
>>502936068>>502936320>>502937634>>502937827>not real necromancyWhat the fuck are you talking about?What "real necromancy" is depends entierly on the setting.If you go by the greek origin of the concept nekromantia is the "divinition though the dead" like throwing knucklebones or reading in entrails, so if you want to be anal about it the Thedas-Version of Necromancy and the communion with spirits through the dead is closer than most other settings so far.
>>502939204The mortalitasi turned out a lot goofier than I had ever imagined.

>>502938706Bellara was just a shitty remake of Merril.
>>502940880Bellara>>>>>>merrill
Bellara’s VA is trying so hard and they’re giving her nothing to work with
>>502940742Hero of Ferelden, this has to stop.You chose to have a regular boring old god baby with a swamp witch, instead of sticking with the Wardens and getting a feathery flying baby.
>>502939073>expecting zoomers to know who Vincent Price is
>>502940958PPPFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFRRRRRRRRRTTTT
>>502941006>Bellara’s VAYeah she is doing her best to maker her a cutieBut often the writing is just to quirky
>>502941006I think its more of a bad writing issue than the VA. The only VA that is bad is Neve. Harding is bad too but that's again because of the cutsey writing <333
>>502940181Maybe you should take less of your bathtub-troonshine.
>>502941915Lightning trying to sound like some 'uwu omg that totahly just happened' is so jarring.
>Dragon Age The Veilguard>we never see an aging dragon guard anything while wearing a veil
>>502940549This and the Skeleton Crew Cameo explains so much of why the writing in this game is so shit.If these people actually played D&D instead of watching cringe theaterkid-streams VG might have been salvagable.
>>502941915Neve’s problem is direction too. There’s so many points where it feels like a first take they just kept.
>>502941006Her voice is annoying, she sounds like Sarah Silverman. I hate burger accents in fantasy shit, it just sounds so wrong.
>>5029409582/10 bait
Which is your favorite origin? If it's Cousland then your second favorite.
>>502942521Honestly I think they're all great, except Dalish. I find it hard to get a number 1 because I enjoy a lot of them.
>>502941009There will be no Nigger-Wardens on my watch!I can hardly tell them apart from the Darkspawn.
>>502940880shes more asian and less retarded than merrill
>>502942521I have a giant softspot for Dalish
>>502942913Might I ask why?
>>502940958>Bellaramiddle age gook quip spewer>Merrillcute retardMerrill wins
>9 years since The Descent>still no Sha-Brytol origin
>>502942968It was the first origin I ever beat the game with after several human noble runs that all ended on or right after Mage's Tower.That replay also came right after beating DAI so there was a lot of motivation to try and find deep lore hints to reveals in future entries, such as the following on Flemeth-mythal.Also it was just very funny ranting about the shems, and experiencing Leliana's racist elf fetishization.
>>502943491>HoDAWhat a blast from the past. I last played like 5 years ago. Any cool shit get in the game in the meantime?
>>502943726>Leliana's racist elf fetishization.???
>>502942521Honestly I thought Dalish or Dwarf Commoner was the worst until I bothered to play as Dick-ass Carta Thief and it turned out to be pure kino.I will never forgive EA/Bioware for mothballing HOF.He was the best DA-Protag.
>>502944126Leliana has very questionable ideas on what are appropriate ways to flirt with an elf.Especially proud forest hobo ones.
>>502944126Leliana has a convo where she says how the alienage is awful and the value of an elven servant in Orlais. She apologizes later if you call her out on it.
>want to play Amell for the DA2 references>enjoy playing as Surana more this is hard
Cassandra is great romance, shame her ovaries are already dried up
>>502944539But what's wrong about that statement?
>>502942673Shes really not.Merril was already insufferable and Bellara is just an inferior remake.Just like Lucanis is a shitty remake of Zevran.
>>502944818>go for Josie because Cassandra is just too much of a nearly eggless hag>Inquisitor and Josie still take 10 years to get married, while her little sister is already on her soon to be born 3rd childi blame solas
>>502945198the point was that she was talking about elves like they're pets lol
>>502945198From the view of Orlesian Nobility she certainly is correct.It was also a great way to show how rare Dalish Elves are because all the other games did a generally poor job at showing that.
>>502945306>wanting a child that is half-pajeetDisgusting.
>>502945198It's never a good idea to compare your want to be paramour to a pet while trying to seduce them.Especially when their people's entire thing is either being prideful isolationists, or abused underclass that was just nearly raped/whose fiancee was raped by stuck up humans.
>>502945568Pets probably live better lives, yeah.
>>502945753Muttkid>>no kid, haglover

He's such a shit and I love it
>Anderfels is a mix of blighted desertscape and swamps and all of it is near freezing at all times>still less shit than Ferelden on a good dayFor realsies Ferelden is like an armpit of a kingdom in comparison to the rest of the continent.
>>502947693every other white person has north african blood
>>502947834but I don't even like varric
>>502945306>she's 37-38 by the time you get marriedyou better put a baby in that ASAP
>>502947834that nasty dialogue about Varric he's such a cuint
>>502943114Based and true
>>502947985I liked Varric but I was never on the Varric train that so many seem to be. I'm not gonna throw the guy out just because he accidentally stabbed Varric after Varric chose to jump on the back of and struggle with a guy holding a dagger.
>>502948432>I was never on the Varric train that so many seem to beWas anyone except the devs? I have never seen anyone being a HUGE Varric fan. The framing device for DA2 was cool but him as a character is just like...whatever. He's nice to have around in DA2 I guess, as a respite from all the other insane companions.
>>502947946lmao
>>502948612I've seen dramatic and exaggerated posts online. Even before the release people were going on about him blowing up Bianca. It was unforgivable apparently.
>>502949020Oh so his biggest fans are all stupid. Kinda makes sense I guess.
>>502947834rook had a hard life..
>>502949462I love how all of Rooks "regrets" are>Actually Rook you didn't do anything, retard, it was my choice.>Oh right lmao having regrets is stupid. :DAnd they they suck his dick like he's a genius for escaping the prison when Solas couldn't. I hate this game so much hahahaha
>>502949615Solas can't say that
>>502949615>blaming himself for mistakes that weren't inflicted by himnothing wrong with that and bellara wasn't agreeable at all
>>502947946I totally belive you kikeboy.
>>502949862>nothing wrong with thatThere IS something wrong because they're trying to set up Rook as a foil to Solas, someone who ACTUALLY MADE MISTAKES THAT ARE HIS FAULT.
>>502945996The point----------------------You
>>502949991>as a foil to Solasthat fade isn't exclusive to solas anyone can enter and see their own regrets, solas just replaced himself with rook
my romances tierlist so farmorrigan>neve=cass=bellara>isabella>merrill>josephine>>>>>>>>>>>dykeliana
>>502948332He was pulling his verbal punches in Inquisition. Would've loved to have him around more so I can hear him be a cunt to people that piss him off. He can take Dorian down for copying his hairstyle.
>>502947834I dont even particulary liked Varric but thats a stabbin.Dont care if the world goes to shit or if we are stuck in his gay little prison Forever, he still gets stabbed.T. Dick ass carta thief
>>502948432>>502948612>Solasfags are in fact faggots just like SolasShocking twist.
Fact: If you didn't cry when Varric revealed his death, you have no soul.
>>502950359100% certified non-white poster
>>502950713It's hard to be emotional when if you have a brain you figure out he's dead like 2 hours into the game.
>>502950952It's not about the twist it's about the confrontation
>>502950359This.
>>502950359now do male
>>502950713I unninstalled Veilguard after 3 hours of play
>>502950713I've always found Varric annoying so I didn't care
>>502950713i didn't cry but it was kind of an emotional hit tbqh
>>502950952
>>502950952I'll be honest I just assumed Varric only ever talking about sleeping and saying bland motivational sayings was a result of the ass writing. I stopped visiting him after a bit and forgot he was there.
>>502947834Bro just revels in acting like he's the cleverest trickiest bastard of all.Makes socking him, and leaving him to rot alone all the more satisfying
>>502951750>that hair clippingdisgusting
>>502950713Crying is too much, but finding out the guy who's been talking you up and comforting you all throughout the journey was just a tulpa that the bald prick who murdered you conjured up for his grooming trick is a hell of a dick move
>>502951810i hate it when a video game acts like a video game
>>502941028Even zoomers have heard Thriller, anon
>>502948612we get it, you don't like dragon age. fuck off.
What exactly makes Rook so special or qualified to defeat the gods?
>>502953383So Dragon Age IS Varric to you? Fascinating.
>>502953475Varric believed in him.
>>502953475right man in the moment it seems. Rook seems to be good at leading a crew and making the decisions that lead to that group defeating the gods
>/dag/ hates DA2 nowWhat happened?
>>502953668it filters midwits
>>502953475He's the only one who's crazy and stubborn enough to do it. The Inquisitor was more reserved in comparison.
>>502952018The standards are raised all the time. Started playing Mass Effect recently for the first time and after Veilguard's pretty average modern facial animation everyone feels like a lifeless puppet in comparison.
>>502953668We love Merrill here.
>>502953475Weapon grade autism and Solas' blood magic.
>>502953668I like all of dragon age, except Absolution
>>502953668I like all Dragon Age except Veilguard
>>502954187Abso-what?
>>502954390non canon shit
>>502953668I like all of Dragon Age
>>502953475Right guy at the right time and place.Rook's good at leading and rallying people during shitshows and is always down to do suicidal stunts if it will give even just a slim chance of victory.
>>502953475Well they're about 18 years old, talk like they just passed a college HR and gender studies course, and got the job due to Varric's nepotism. It really is a heartwarming story.
>>502954357Ok, boomer.
>>502954390Kino
>>502953668It plays like ass, my guy.An incredibly fun party doesn't make up for those maps, enemies, ass inventory system, and blatantly unfinished nature
>>502954642Gaider must be really confused about how he feels about this
>>502954642cute ngl
>>502954642>tfw qunari bitch is just lost as hell at the sudden dwarf make out session
>>502954642Hot qunari
>>502954642Is there anyone who is actually entertained when they watch stuff like this instead of just cringing?
They used to post leaked veilguard footage before it became a single player gameNotice the wifi sign at the top left
>Harding and Solas both talk up Josephine as being the sweetest person they know >goes and does this, and helps her bf win at poker and strip Cullen nakedHmmmmmmmm
>>502944805help :(
>>502955000I got a boner
my love
>>502955031meds
>>502955180Just cross the differences and play as Mahariel instead
>>502955031looks like a place holder image to me bro, this leak was supposed to be from a late 2022 build iirc
>>502955031No one can resist the dropkick
>>502954642based niggafags
>>502954603Ok zoomer
>>502955157She's good at what she does.
>>502955031I'm guessing it's a placeholder for the parry indicator
>>502955283Nooo, they totally made the multiplayer game in two years back in 2015-2017 and then spent the next 6 years copypasting that work into singleplayer game! This makes total sense! I'm not crazy!
>>502954187I remeber everyone calling it when Absolution came out that it was an example how shit the writing in Dreadwoof was going to be.Case in point: >>502954642
>>502944805I don't think you get many references in DA2. I only remember one line in a conversation. with your mum about cousin Amell
>>502953651unpredictability and actual heroic nature, retard,
>>502955271everyone says the dalish origin is shiet :(but it seems nice
>>502955625So, autism.
>>502955182Well yeah but you grew up without a father.
Varric by virtue of extended contact with protagonists has a fine tuned sense for their kind in the wild
>>502955681Do it. You still get a reference like Amell, and your clan shows up a lot
>>502955625Rook simps are the funniest thing like why do you like the protagonist that is a literal who that becomes a freelance therapist to a gang of losers who can't get the job done because they're just as unqualified as you are?
>>502955598Cullen mentions knowing an Amell. Either matter of fact or wistfully depending on if the Warden was male or female.
>>502955904>complaining about literal who-ism, when Rook is the only protagonist with actual achievements to their name before the adventure begins
>make a nonbinary character>they are an insufferable dickhead that makes every situation uncomfortableAccurate
>>502956094My Aeducan shit all over everyone in the Provings, sired a child, and killed his brother before the adventure began
>>502955904defeated the elven gods, sent solas screeching back to the fade. made trouble, saved the world ;)
>>502956202She also hates women for no reason, Taash giving off incel-vibes
>>502955904Rook has the powerlevel of a god, no other MC in the series can compete.>HoF: barely kills 1 archdemon >Hawke: lol>Inquisitor: barely defeats cory and his dragon>Rook: kills 1 archdemon, 2 archdemon lites and 2 godslol
>>502956094human noble is a tourney master, Mage is the favored apprentice of the first enchanter due to skill, dalish is a skilled hunter.
>>502956468>and 2 gods3 if you count the Forgotten one. Its kind of funny when you see it all written down
rook is competent while the only thing the inquisitor was thinking about is solas' penis when rook is too busy fighting elven gods
>>502956632you're right, i forgot about him although he doesn't seem to be at 100% power
>>502956632>Its kind of funny when you see it all written downsome will tell you this game has bad writing, which is true for the companions, but the way they delivered high stakes and made the impossible believable is admirable. mass effect 3's execution was nowhere as believable
>>502956468My problem is that nobody respects Rook. In other games companions had issues but they respected the leader enough to know that their shit doesn't matter and that handling it is the protag doing them a favor.In this game the entire middle part of the game is>Rook, my adult diaper is full of shit and I need you to change it for me or I can't function on this Team that's supposed to be saving the world :(That makes you feel like a hero? God bless, I guess lol
Where's Hawke?
>>502956843in fenris' bussy
>>502956843He spat on that thang
>>502956843Uuh, "South".
>>502956843In the fade.
I'm sorry /dag/ I don't have a next thread prepared you do it
>>502956843he's cucking avelines husband with aveline
>>502956468>>HoF: barely killsNigga I barely lost 1 hp. Eat shit.
>>502956639>the inquisitor was thinking about is solas' penis when rook is too busy fighting elven godsI really am never picking the Inquisitor wants to save Solas option again. My guy, millions are dead and you're not even fucking him and are talking like this?
>>502957207he has to prego morrigan in order to survive tho
>>502957213The Varric murder should be the last straw desu even for those that were pro redeeming him
>>502957213He's probably mad that solas isn't gayAlso why is Dorian around him? I kicked that dude from Inquisition
>>502957327Nah, he can just send Loghain/Alistair.
>>502956843Who?
I'm converting to Imperial Andrastianism, just for him
>>502957794Why, what's his endgame?
>>502957794SOVL
new >>502958064
>>502958025He's the Black Divine
>>502958025BIG BLACK DIVINE IMPERIALISM
>>502957794>Black Divine moonlights as a freedom fighterIs that a Batman reference?
>>502956843alive and well, the hero of riverdale took the demon
>>502957381literally an accident caused by varric himself lmao if solas had wanted to murder varric he would have just petrified him on the spot retard
>>502956843NOT having kids with Isabella LIKE HE SHOULD
With the Failguard blunder I was thinking of playing DA:O again. Are there any community made mod packs I should look out for? Stuff like visual overhauls?
>>502955681Maybe not shit but compared to the others it feels like it goes nowhere and never gets any closure.>Mage; You meet Josef or Jason or whatever the fuck his name was and get to decide his fate>Dorf Noble; You can get your revenge on Bhelen or what imho is even funnier bury the hatchet and explain to him that if he managed to outmanouver you all he deserves being king and you never wanted to be king anyway>Dorf Commoner: Your sister is now Bhelens Bedwarmer do you help Bhelen so she can live a comfortable life as a hooker or do you ruin her life>Human noble; the whole thing about Arl Howe and Loghain gives it a more Personal touch>Elf Commoner: Arl Howe again, your friends and family still end as part of the Tevinter bloodbank thoAnd then there is Dalish Elf:>oh no I was blighted and my childhood friend/lover vanished oh he popped up again but I dont know whether he is a ghoul or whether it was a dream and now he is gone and nothing is ever explained good bye childhood friend
>>502955473What does the point tally mean and why has it been frozen for so many threads ?
