Dragon Age: The Veil Guard Reveal Trailer (Fall 2024)| Xbox Showcase

I guess this is what I get for having my hopes slightly up. I don't like to be one of those folks but they went in the complete wrong direction with this.

The trailer. I guess its a thing now to make everything kinda funny. I don't like the character intros at all, and I don't like the style of graphics. It honestly should look more like Baldur's Gate 3.

I think I'll pass. I guess the change to purple impacted the game more than I expected.
 
Why the FUCK did they do the retarded anime intro thing where they introduce all the characters and remove ALL sense of mystery?

Not to mention the myriad of other obvious issues here
 
Compare and contrast to Origins, when Dragon Age was actual dark fantasy instead of some cheap Fortnite-Suicide Squad knockoff.




What a shame.

I mean... I remember that trailer with edgy "This is the new shit" song which was so fucking awkward. But yeah, I miss DAO times. Ironically, that song kinda apply to quality of the Veilguard's trailer
 
Sadness. This is the opposite of what I wanted, how very predictable. Oh well, at least there are some other great RPG studios.
 
Don't mind the art style, characters, story, and writing is what I care about. Unfortunately it doesn't look great on that side either.
 
Have to see gameplay first which I think will be on Tuesday. But I don't like what I'm seeing so far..I hate this whole "let's just copy fortnite" nonsense. Not only does the artstyle resemble fortnite, but the whole sarcastic dialogue/writing just doesn't stick here. Who's the target audience here?
 
I think Dragon Age Origins was the only good Dragon Age.

The art style was total horse shit. And checked every box of inclusion….

I'm far from sold on this one.

"Everyone but no one". If gameplay looks like this trailer, the game will tank hard
 
Considering its taking place in the most brutal place in Dragon Age lore, kinda fucking stupid to make it so cheerful. Bad trailer but game might be good.
 
This is gonna be the one that closes the studio, I think. Nothing about this looked appealing and Origins is one of my favorite games ever.
 
I was hoping there was a glimmer of that old Bioware still around, but I didn't see it in whatever that was. Means the next Mass Effect is probably going to be garbage as well.
I admire that strand of optimism you had. Especially in current year.
 
This looks awful, which is why i dont get why everyone thinks Xbox showcase is an A, like no gameplay, awful trailers that look so goofy and cartoony, this is not what Dragon Age is about.
Same thing with Fable and some other awful trailers, no release date either.

Well, not ready to write this off yet… but I'm not filled with warm fuzzies on this.

Bioware May be done after this.

Oh Bioware....what happened to you..:messenger_crying:
I truly wish the trailer was a big fumble but I just dont see any of the origins magic here.
 
This is precisely why I never got my hopes up for the next Mass Effect; The entire future of BioWare hinges on Dragon Age and if this is the best they can do, well… officially rest in piece BioWare. Once this flops, it'll be the third high profile flop in a row for the studio.
 
I only played the first dragon age. My memory recalls it as being quite serious and realistic looking for the time?

What was this?
 
I don't dare show this to my wife. She's loved Dragon Age and replays them often. She was waiting for Dreadwolf because of Solas, but this...ugh.
 
I honestly thought it was like a cross over for Fortnite or an event of some kind for a hero shooter.... what the fucking fuckety fuck was that shit..... Bioware are finished shut them down already.
