Dragon Age The Veilguard Character Creator First Look!

[@iamBrandonTV]

What was the first Dragon Age game you played? Who is your favorite Dragon Age character?

[@lordmarwolaeth4570]

Loghain, I have other favorites too but Loghain is top! Origins was my first DA.

[@gray8880]

First played DA2. Hawke, Fenris and Varric are still vying for top spot in my list of favorites.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@gray8880HAWKE! 😩😩😩😩❤️

[@lykan2]

Dragon Age Origins, My Grey Warden.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@lykan2 damn, I got chills. Haven’t heard that in a while! 🤣 Maybe I should play some origins

[@DukeDudeson]

Black Rook really grew on me with the first reveal, but then I saw just how great the hair & it's physics were later on. So it's real nice to see there's some good black long hair styles, nice dreads options & such.

[@ali74826]

wicked! so glad to finally have a great range of hair options and beards in DA!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@ali74826 I feel you! I was worried going in but once I saw what they had. Was super happy. I wish I got to show all the hairstyles 😄

[@whatevanreads]

It's nice not seeing one of these videos with a comment section filled with trolls. Great video - Halloween can't get here soon enough!

[@jungtothehuimang]

you're such a lovely person, thanks for spreading positivity toward this game!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@jungtothehuimang thank you!

[@Ninjaboy362]

I'm living for the textured hair!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@Ninjaboy362 it was needed!

[@samflood5631]

Both the character creator and actual gameplay looks good. It’s a bit similar to both Baldur's Gate 3 and Dragon's Dogma 2, but it does have some unique features on it's own in terms of hairstyle, factions, costume design and tattoos. As for the gameplay, the combat is a bit similar to God of War Ragnarok and the exploration is almost like Tales of Arise.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@samflood5631 daaaamn! What a good comparison! I actually started playing Baldur’s Gate 3 because of this video actually. So I guess I’m in good company

[@Satr]

I like that you can change the lighting.

[@ardibeltza77]

Wow¡!! I usually spend an insane ammount of time designing my characters in every game, with this one I feel I'll soend days!!!! Thanks for the vid!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@ardibeltza77 thanks for watching!

[@BlackPantherEclipse]

I'm a fan of anything that gives me a lot of hair options as a Black man. While I absolutely love BG3, Larian did not do well in that department.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@BlackPantherEclipse let’s goooo!

[@gingerkot9869]

THE music in the background...\*^*/

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@gingerkot9869 so you feel the energy of the Dragon Age ?!

[@LadyRav3nGaming]

Your rook looks so good! I made a reaction video to Kala, Ashe, and IGN and the CC looks awesome! All the hate comments I’ve gotten though is ridiculous and I know my fellow dragons age content creators are getting them too so I want to show my support. Many who were at the event said they only had so much time but what you all have done with that time to make your rooks is amazing! 😊

[@iamBrandonTV]

Thank you!

[@Hella_Siren]

Thanks for showing human options in CC!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@Hella_Siren of course! Thanks for watching

[@AntiMacro]

Hair and beards look great!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@AntiMacro makes me jealous I can’t grow one like it

[@aaronhawkins7352]

Finally dread locs and it’s not stale hair

[@sliccthedestroyer1881]

Your character looks Amazing!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@sliccthedestroyer1881 thank you! I wish I had more time 🤣

[@keiichimaster4734]

Thank you very much for the video, it cleared up some of my doubts.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@keiichimaster4734 you’re welcome! I had the same concerns. Glad you were able to check out a bit of it. Can’t wait to see what you make of your character 😀

[@ThatFont]

You’re a champion for the fandom on Twitter 💖 Thank you for being a good person.

[@iamBrandonTV]

Thank you! Doing it for all fans!

[@LordClarion]

It'd be really good to see (and hear) the voice options for Rook, particularly now we have the pitch shifter option too.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@LordClarion I know! I’m sorry. The voice options has a major spoiler in it so that’s why I didn’t show it 😣

[@LordClarion]

@@iamBrandonTV Aha, thanks for not spoilering. How significant are the pitch shift options? Keen to know how low/high/harsh/soft/masc/fem the voices can go.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@LordClarion I’ll take a look at the full video and will get back to you!

[@Saitessa]

The more I see the more excited I get! I can't wait to see the haters get humbled by this game's success. Just like BG3.

[@sunnyworldproductions4818]

My Rook will be a Shadow Dragon And he is descended from one of the cruelest and bloodiest families of tevinter

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@sunnyworldproductions4818 let’s go! 😅

[@Yoshaunpro]

the hair looks great

[@Hypegreene05]

This is incredible. I saw some dreds but I was hoping for some braids too.

[@iamBrandonTV]

Yessss! I wish I was able to go through ALL of the hairstyle but I only had so much time to play. Also I knew I wouldn't be able to play again till full release so I didn't want to get too attached to the character ha

[@Echolaliaxu]

Is this going to be the first mainstream AAA game ever to separate pronouns, gender AND body type? Hell yeah!

[@baesato]

the background music is from the game?? because is beautiful

[@heathengypsy]

The body proportions look so odd to me, they're so stubby looking and the heads look to big for the bodies and shoulders too narrow.

[@BonusEggs4Sale]

Kala brought me here!

[@Jumpershane]

My Targaryen is going to look insane

[@natashaslocum3549]

So many options! I'm so excited to create my Rook!

[@foilpainterfantasyartist1711]

Amazing! I will be spending hours just getting my Rook to look just right

[@ElPerroNegro97]

Damn! I want to try it!

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@ElPerroNegro97 it’s coming soon!

[@HaTTa_IRL]

This is going to take a long time… wish they had a separate app like Dragons Dogma so you can create before release. Looks great thou!

[@nickclark89]

i loveeee the cc but that lack of body hair as gay bear.... I find it insulting!!! haha

[@bluntlyhonest6803]

Only thing i can praise here is the hair, everything else is so minimal or messy.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@bluntlyhonest6803 that’s your opinion and I respect it!

[@dirtydead4144]

Cool video, would be nice if you messed with some of the options you missed like the melanin slider

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@dirtydead4144 I know but I only had so much time to play. It was suggested we only did character creator for a little so we can get through the game demo.

[@JackO-9028]

Do we know if elves can have facial hair?

[@iamBrandonTV]

YES!!!! I love beards so you can beard it up!!!!!

[@dodohateswater]

Canonically, no. Stick to the lore 😑

@@melbeam995 oh thank you 😅

[@bonedrone9869]

Is there no slider for eye size?

[@teriyaki_chick]

i adore the inclusion of textured hair and the top surgery scars. the CC is so top tier to me.

[@neiska25]

And I as a bi woman feel repulsed by it.

[@teriyaki_chick]

@@neiska25 just because you’re bi doesn’t make you not homophobic.

[@neiska25]

@@teriyaki_chick - and just because you are trans/gay/whatever doesn't magically make you a good person. I suppose you never stopped to think about what possible impact seeing such scars might have on someone who survived "top cancer?" Someone not liking something, isn't always related to whatever you choose to live your life. Different people react to different things differently. So forgive me if I choose not to play a game that reminds women who struggled with such ordeals. If you want to play it, go ahead. No one's trying to stop you. And I hope you enjoy it. Truely. But just because someone doesn't like something that you do, doesn't automatically make them "phobic" either, and that phrase is thrown around so much that it is quickly losing all if its relevance.

[@teriyaki_chick]

@@neiska25 i’m not even trans. i just actually support the other people in this community. but i truly do hope you get picked by whatever right wing douche you’re trying to impress.

[@thatguy9088]

@@teriyaki_chick - people are allowed to not like your BS, doesn't make them a phobe.

Me: "Can I make a beautiful woman with curves?" Them: "NO! MALE GAZE!" Me: "...But I'm a chick?" Ya but no. Passing on this one. You can keep your hank hill butts and top scars. If other people want to buy it, they are free to do so, and I hope they enjoy it. But I certainly won't be spending my money on it.

[@nytesla_punk3327]

I'm gonna make two beautiful women without any top surgery scars. Lol when they're going to be wearing armour anyway I don't think its a problem. Go play Stellar Blade

[@neiska25]

@@nytesla_punk3327 - when they tell female gamers that they can't make female characters that are actually attractive, I would call that a problem. Many of us female gamers LIKE to have gorgeous or even sexy characters. This isn't "inclusive" this is exclusionary.

In what world are things like top scars, while only a very narrow scope of body type "equal representation?" You like it? Then play it. Go enjoy. But me and pretty much my entire circle of friends, both irl and online, won't be. And personally I hope it flops. Hard.

[@neiska25]

@@nytesla_punk3327 Ya but no. If I want to make a character more like myself in real life, with actual curves, like, an actual bust and backside, then no, that isn't a "skill issue."

[@NoName-zm1ks]

Agree, the bodies look stunted, legs outta proportion to the rest of the body, as if all characters share the same gene malfunction. Is this intentional, as part of inclusivity?

[@prollydatboi8841]

[@Kaesemesser0815]

Uhg... so it's unbelievably hard to create a good-looking masculine male or feminine female.

[@iamBrandonTV]

@@Kaesemesser0815 I would wait to play the full game before judging. I was making a character for myself and there’s tons of options. I just didn’t pick everything because I didn’t have a lot of time

Rook is a lousy name for a world saviour.

[@iamBrandonTV]

Please look up what the name "Rook" represents. I will do it for you. "In chess, rooks are considered a major piece and symbolize strength and stability. They move horizontally and vertically, and are a key part of defensive and offensive strategies. The rook is often depicted as a castle or tower in modern chess sets, but in earlier versions of the game it was represented by a chariot. The word "rook" comes from the Persian word rukh, which means "chariot"." ROOK = Main character = YOU

[@Evantrop]

@@iamBrandonTV When you say rook i am reminded of the guy from DAO deep roads. Not everyone plays chess.So yes they should've chosen better name.Also voicing main potagonist is a mistake.Look like larian did.

[@sonnenblumefrau2048]

It’s just fine. One of the nicknames for the Deputy in Far Cry 5 is Rook. They were called Dep, Deputy, Rook, or Rookie.
