@enightc3 ай бұрын
what we have is a Game Developer that has nothing except WOKE. When you have a Game Developer that knows the game they are making and have a actual audience like themselves as Gamers, woke only adds characteristics to the characters, it makes they own personal stories more alive, WOKE shouldn't be the entire game. Its very easy to see what game falls into what category. Its all about substance. Unfortunately, this trailer only shows that the game has no substance. I am really hoping this trailer is just a bad mistake, and the actual game isn't like this.

DA2 was really gritty and had some pretty dark themes whereas DA:I had way more happy and silly moments. But this? This looks straight up like a Valorant fantasy trailer... Of course, the darkest of all is still DA:O. About what they did to the darkspawn, they started shifting in that direction since DA2 and every game since then they look more and more goofy. In DA:O they looked terrifying, now they're just weird skeletons. And yeah, not a single companion seems appealing.

This... "visual style" is less Disney/Pixar than it is Japanese MMORPG/Fortnite/Overwatch - Right down to cartoon Physics (just look how high that Qunari jumps to beat on the dragon! FFS!!!). I really dislike that. Rather a lot. On top of that they appear to be recycling the premise from Inquisition, right down to a lot of the plot beats. (or Beat-Offs). If the actual gameplay is ANYTHING like this trailer... I will not buy it. Clearly, they took ALL the wrong lessons from Larian and Baldur's Gate 3 and then compounded that by drawing on popular MMPORGS. This appears to be aimed squarely at older children and early teenagers. And it explains why EA and Bioware fired their DA Creator/Writer.

Come to think of it, have we ever had any "black" Elves in Dragon Age? Always felt they were far more homogenous and only humans really came in all the variety. So that DALISH warden fella gought me off guard for sure. Also, why isn't Varrick blond? Even with old age it should be like grey hair, not black. And what's with the music? And wtf is with this story, like a team of plucky go getters and DEI miscreants going up against gods and empires? What I loved about DA:I is that you still had an army doing most of the grunt work in the background. Made it feel more real, and even in DA:O you were gathering an army since you couldn't fight Loghane and Darkspawn on your own.

Also, something else people aren’t mentioning at all is the primary color choice…. Bright Purple? Why Bright Purple? Every DA game has a primary color scheme. DA:O and 2 both used Blood Red, to convey the dark, gritty, fantasy style. DA:I changed it to Green to convey the Fade and the breach. But in this one? Why Bright Purple? The only thing I can think of while watching this is it’s meant to convey “representation” to be more specific “Non-Binary” is what I see when I see that color. But as a long time fan, of everything BioWare, sad to say, I am siding with Solas on this game. BioWare is dead.

The veil jumper part is a great point. Going physically into the veil requires lots of power and resources in DA lore? I am not well versed in it anymore, but there was a reason why Corypheus as a powerful Tevinter mage with his colleagues were like the ONLY ones to do it? Like, what the fuck are we talking about here? Oh, right. Strong diverse female character can do it all. Sorry but this DA looks like a woke/DEI nightmare, judging by the art style, tone and other characters also. Like the black elf and the female Qunari (even though the race name is not Qunari, it's their religion). This was not made for the fans, from what I can tell. This looks like another game for "modern audiences". I'll wait for the gameplay and the inevitable shit storm that will follow and how some dev / community manager starts attacking the fans.

The characters will perhaps (surely) be more substantial than that. But I've looked at all them and my first thought was that there aren't any that I would want to recruit.

I agree 100% with every character being romanced regardless of gender is lame, It makes them feel not truly alive as characters. People in real life have different sexuality's, different people are straight,gay,bi etc. Baldur's gate 3 had this problem aswell, so did Dragon age 2, characters like isabela being romancable for both genders makes sense because she's slept with men and women, but Some of the other characters don't make sense. like anders, you would think by his personality in awakening that he'd be a charming ladies man, then in 2 he has the hots for you even if you're a dude. I actually would have liked an aveline romance in da 2. It could have had a interesting story of aveline learning to love again with you replacing Donnic if you engaged in the flirting. Kind of like Isabela's but more "pure" I normally go fenris with female hawke, and Merrill with male hawke.

Completely agree with you. I hated that problem with DA2 and BG3 for the same reason. Characters like Gale and Anders just don't give off an attraction to men because their dialogue doesn't even mention men in all the times you speak with them about romance (Gale is obsessed with Mystra, Anders mentions wanting to settle down with a woman specifically multiple times in Awakening), so it's so awkward when they suddenly come out (pun intended) and say they like your male character. I also think it's the same with Astarion on the opposite end. It also really restricts story potential like Dorian's personal quest in Inquisition.

The game assumes you want to romance someone or multiple people and some people just want to play the game without romancing, sure it's a small amount of players but the game should still respect that for those people. I feel like astarion and gale should have been female only option, they do have very sweet romances. Anders in da 2 also hits on you randomly and you feel awful for not rejecting him, I think you also lose friendship points. When it comes to Dorian, isabela from 2 also had that problem, you miss her backstory if you don't romance her. Dorian is cool, but Didn't romance him so I had to look it up. What I love about origins is morrigan can have different arcs with you. You can take it slow and tell her you care for her and she'll eventually fall in love with you, or you can have a casual relationship with her and choose to be more then that or not, or you can have a genuine friendship with her and she'd be happy just having a real friend.

Glad you were so honest about the romances.
@tygamasta17203 ай бұрын
I honestly felt the same way. Harding and Neve were the only two females that sort of looked good. The rest weren’t attractive at all. They preached about how great their companions are and they all look boring and bland.

The more I look at this trailer the more it makes me think of Shrek, the feeling is the same it feels more like a comedy than a dragon age game.

Yeah I’m late but you said everything I was thinking. Huge departures. Cant sell the story.. we already did veil stuff in DAI. Can’t sell the romance(I agree with your takes there as a guy) .. even in DAI it was bad. Also the tone is all wrong. Yeah sure it’s a trailer. Okay, you can’t do a trailer?! What about the game.. I’ve accepted the death of the franchise a few years after origins but at this point I don’t wanna them touching ME either.

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who instantly thought of Wish. I think the reason why all the characters seem short is that they have those cartoonishly large heads/faces, so all the proportions look out of whack against the more realistic settings and animals like the dragons. Totally agree with you on all points, except slight disagreement on the romances being player sexual - it's just so much better for players to have more options. I get what you're saying - it feels nice when your love interest is legitimately into the gender of your character, because it feels like the character is a real person and might actually choose your avatar, not just because they "have to." But that feeling also comes from approval/like systems, and the good feeling isn't worth the horrible feeling of having to play as something you don't identify as just to be able to experience the romance of the character you like. On the subject of the love interests, yeah, a lot of the companions aren't really doing it for me. Davrin is the hottest and I'm just glad that I'm into dudes and have him as an option bc I agree with you on the girl options. Harding is a dwarf, the qunari is ugly, the veil jumper looks like she's going to be an annoyingly upbeat, "zomg so quirky" Sera-type character, and the detective looks like she's gonna be a shady-ass ice queen type with a chip on her shoulder. It's great that there's a lot of options here for people that like various things but I don't get why games don't just make it a rule to include ONE basic sexy fan service lady for the folks of more traditional tastes. I bet you if the qunari lady had softer features, eyeliner, and her tits out, we'd be seeing the internet blow up right now like when Resident Evil revealed Lady D. All I ask for in return is an equally sexy slutty dude as one of the male love interests.

Harding was one of the better written npcs in Inquisition and in many ways better than fodder like Vivienne or Josephine. If you'all can't look past she being a Dwarf that's too bad.

I refuse to consider this horrible trailer to be Dragon Age. Unfortunately, I can’t be that surprised. Dragon Age is a dark series that deals with heavy topics. It’s emotional and dark, and the characters are flawed and morally questionable. Even a good decision can lead to horrid consequences. The scenes in DAO with the Deep Roads terrified me like a horror game would, and it was fantastic. That’s what made the romances so special. In all that darkness, it was like a pinpoint of joy and it made me feel things. The characters felt real and complex. Unfortunately, that’s exactly why it was changed. Big companies won’t bankroll dark or depressing things anymore out of fear of offending someone. Gaming is in a sad place right now. It used to be art, but now everything is so sanitized. This trailer has no heart, and no emotion. It’s being entirely marketed on getting to romance quirky characters. That’s not what Dragon Age is meant to be. I want to be scared in the Deep Roads again, then cry my eyes out when my romance of choice goes south. There’s plenty of humor in the series, but the tone is meant to be grim. Seeing this broke my heart.

What are you meant to feel with this trailer? It's by the book corporate AAA slop. Pop music, flashy name cards, zany and quirky characters that act aloof during stressful situations, a narrator that talks about nothing and an art style filled with saturated colours. This isn't Dragon Age, it's a mix of Borderlands, Fortnite and Guardians of the Galaxy.

The series has gotten progressively worse with each installment. I'm not expecting much from this game. I'm also not a fan of the continuous linking of the games through Varric. He's overused and is just nostalgia bait at this point.
