I'm literally a tranny dragon age super fan and this is the most disappointing game I've ever tried. This is the last nail in the coffin for me, BioWare is well and truly dead.
>>3649734I had zero expectations, because Bioware has never made a good game before.
>>3649734>BioWare is well and truly deadYes, for like fucking 15 years now kek
>>3649751I know people have been saying it for a while. in my view, inquisition and andromeda were misfires but in the ballpark of what you'd expect from BioWare. only anthem was a colossal failure, and even that was easy to write off as a poor attempt to capitalize on a lucrative genre/business model. I held out hope that veilguard would really be a return to form, instead it's the worst game they've ever made.
>>3649750I think Mass Effect 2 was good.
>>3649761for me it was Diablo 3 taking inspiration from WoW candy shit for "all ages". As long i liked Warcraft3, WoW made entire genre money piggie for toddlers with daddys credit card. Good business plan whatsoever but killed industry for old gamers
>>3649764It isn't.
>>3649768>>3649764A good game but not an RPG. The plot, the characters, the side quests are all miles above what passes for today's standard.
>>3649734Why do you people have such awful taste in games?
>>3649751Spbp
I like it but it's basically Space Marine 2 in terms of gameplay.Not an RPG
>>3649734I hope I can make a hot female elf protagonist in it and armors look cool.And swords don't look stupid like in DAI
>>3649734Game is just a one long corridor, its FF XIII all over again.>>3650181Not possible with character creation options and art design they chose for the game.
>>3649734>most disappointing gameIt'll be awhile before I have the time to play this because I am also a Dragon Age super fan, but it doesn't seem possible it could be worse than Dragon Age II.Veilguard would have to have the same level of repeated maps, retarded main story where your choices don't matter and all factions are shit, and companions worse than Anders. That doesn't change anything that might be bad about Veilguard, but DA2 is legit one of the worst games I've ever played.>worst game they ever madeyou now remember they made Sonic Chronicles; The Dark Brotherhood
>>3650234>you now remember they made Sonic Chronicles; The Dark BrotherhoodThis game is genuinely a step above Dragon Age Origins, or at least the combat and map design is better.
>>3649789>I'm literally a tranny
>>3650224you mean FFX
>>3649764me3 was better than 2, and it was last good bioware game
>>3650247Okay but why do trannies make posts like >>3651422Why do they have such bad taste in games? I don't understand. What drives a person to enjoy bioware at all? Even outside of that it's always stuff like new vegas and tsukihime. Like the most unpleasant and vapid media imaginable. Does getting your dick split include a lobotomy? Nothing cute about playing garbage games.

>>3651444>but le bad musicHow about you stop regurgitating reddit memes and actually compare the games? Sonic Chronicles has a big open world with optional party members to find that give you alternative routes and has teen girl butthole tight resource management via both SP and items, with incredibly dangerous enemies that can actually wipe your party. Tell me how this is worse than Dragon Age Origins? In fact, this child's game is easily the most complex game bioware has ever made. I don't think you fully understand just how bad bioware is.
>>364973425 hours in and I just said fuck it this isn't fun. Only thing I liked about the game was the hair physics. My bearded lady dwarf's hair was awesome. Everything else sucked ass. I feel bad for people that were super fans and preordered and paid for this slop. I just pirated it and it wasn't worth the bandwidth.
>>3651449why every tranny freak is a pedo?
>>3649750The first Dragon Age and Mass Effect games were good.
>>3649734we're all trannies here, that shit doesn't make you special
Watched a tranny reviewer I watch tear into Veilgaurd for its terrible representation and shitty characters and puzzles. No one likes this shit unless they live on Twitter.>>3650234Sonic Chronicles is better than ME:Andromeda or Veilgaurd simply because we got Ken Penders suing Sega over them using his Sonic characters in it. Regardless of game quality, that was hilarious.
>>3649734I hatewatch lefty vidya review sites and even they hate this game LULhttps://www.avclub.com/game-theory-dragon-age-the-veilguard-garbage-collection-sim-bioware
>>3649734Wait, it's not a return to form for Bioware?
>all the shitposting and whining on this board is just braindead tranny and lefty spamThat's the most glowing review possible. If the braindead juvenile extremists hate it and can't even articulate what's bad about it, it has to be GOTY 2024.
I am willing to pirate the game and try it out. Is it awful besides the woke stuff as well?
>>3655279>"vidya"Pleeeeeeeeease kill yourself PLEASE
>>3649734sophia is that you?
>>3655294The writing reads like a tumblr blog mixed with Ao3, and the combat is about as interesting as OP's nonexistent sex life. Save yourself the effort and download something else.
>>3655319Thanks. I dont have much time on my hands anyways.I thought there was a chance that it could be as Baldur's Gate 3. A casual social sim RPG with some value once you ignore all the pozzed shit. Shame.
>>3655294Below mediocre. Not an rpg in every sense of the sentence. Combat is dumded down Soulslike. Every class that you play, be it mage or warrior, play the same. You just wait for your cooldown abilities to activate, while you dodge and parry enemies attacks. Area attacks are all huge and come with massive delay, so you have a lot of time to dodge everything. Difficulty only effects how long you need to peck at enemies life. The is zero exploration, every map is just a corridor. Some maps have optional puzzles along the way for some cosmetic loot, a lot of them are just corridors with cutscenes along the way.Writing is the worst thing that I've ever experienced. I've absolutely no idea what's going on, and I went through Ulysses blind, and got something out of it. I've skipped Inquisition, and this game assumes that you've played it last tuesday. You're thrown into a world of terms and characters that have absolutely no build up, explanation, or meaning, unless you somehow have a whole Inquisition wiki memorised in your head. Weekly tv shows tend to have summaries, these absolute morons expect people to remember ten year old game!In short, yes, certainly do try and play it. It's experience to behold, and share with the world.
>>3655294Yes.The writing is a mix between zoomer- and marvelslop and it does the thing where it ruins the earlier games with the dumb "plot-twists".
>>3655349>>3655376Shit this is so impressively retarded now I simply have to try it. As soon as I get some free time I'll pirate it, kek.Usually every half decent game does at least SOMETHING "right" Most games have SOME kind of appeal in some way but this one seems like one of those genuine 1/5s
>>3649734bioware only made like 2-4 decent games everit was never even alive
>>3649734>I'm literally a tranny dragon age super fan and this is the most disappointing game I've ever tried.This might be bait, but there are definitely even transgendered individuals out there who dislike this game. One of my friends is trans and they think the game is fucking retarded for trying to make one person's gender identity crisis into a major plot point while there's fucking world-ending cataclysm at hand. In all fairness, it would be just as bad a move to make ANY sort of character's mental illness seem so important in the face of a plot of this scale.I'm not playing the game myself, but my wife is a huge DA fan and I basically hear her cussing the game out from the other room every time she plays. From the way she describes it, it almost seems like this game started out as something completely different, then at the last minute they tried to forcibly mold it into a Dragon Age game, and smooth over the cracks by pandering to SJW zoomers.
>>3655349>I've skipped Inquisition, and this game assumes that you've played it last tuesday. You're thrown into a world of terms and characters that have absolutely no build up, explanation, or meaning, unless you somehow have a whole Inquisition wiki memorised in your head.My wife has been a huge Dragon Age fangirl since the first game and she basically has encyclopedic knowledge of events from every game, having played each one about a bajillion times. She's assured me this has only made Veilguard unsalvagably worse.
>>3655384Its really fucking lame.The writing is ass, the characters feel like inferior rehashes of other better characters they could have just brought back >Bellara is just Merril 2.0 with slited eyes and a pignose>assassin-dude is just Zevran but instead of being Antonio Banderas the Manwhore its just "dude coffee and cooking lmao">we wuz elvez warden is the stereotypical forgettable black character where he is out to prove himself and suck cock>Trash is just Karlach but as an annoying teenager as if written by a middle-aged troon
>>3655512>My wifeYou mean you, right
>>3655522No. I don't like Dragon Age. Or westerns RPGs in general.
>>3655512What is it with women and dragon age? Dragon age has so many female fans, what is it that draws them to DA so much?
>>3655639Romance? Hot protagonists? Gay sex? They tend to love that about BG3 as well.
>>3655649... fucking women
>>3655649Basically. Although my wife is also a big fan of games with lasting consequeces, which is part of why she dislikes what DA has become, since none of the choices you make really matter or carry over anymore. She enjoyed BG3 a lot, it even got her back into writing fanfics, which she hasn't done in like a decade.I bought her BG3 and a new laptop for Christmas and she's basically played nothing else for almost an entire year. I'm glad she's enjoying herself. Reminds me of me before I was dead inside.
>>3656194>I'm glad she's enjoying herself. Reminds me of me before I was dead inside.Based anon still has some of his soul
>>3656194>writing fanficsOh no, she's retarded.
>>3656201>he doesn’t know bg3 is fan fic
>>3656197>Based anon still has some of his soulIt is really nice to be around people with enthusiasm for SOMETHING. I spend all day with co-workers who just vacantly mutter about weather and traffic, if anything at all, so getting home from work and hearing my wife excitedly tell me about some quest she did or some story idea it inspired is like a breath of fresh air; makes me feel like a kid again.I don't think it can be understated just how much being around soulless people will suck your fucking soul out. In scenarios like that, you gotta keep feeding your own flame, somehow.>>3656201>creating things is retardedsasuga
>>3649761>>3649734ET happened in 1983 and destroyed the American console game industry and let Japan take over for almost 20 years. Pop culture repeats every 30 years or so, which means the North American video game industry started collapsing in mid 2010s. Nobody noticed aside from GamerGate because everybody was playing Japanese and European games anyway, whereas in the 1980's they hadn't taken over yet.
>>3656227Holy shit, you're fucking stupid. Goddamn.
>>3656209Right woman can save you from losing your soul. Hell, my to-be wife breaking something in imaginative ways is doing wonders for my sanity. Stay strong anon.
