I'm very impressed with gamefly, got my copy within 3 days of release.

Agreed on the hair though I haven't played the game myself. I'd love to know if the hair tech was done in-house at Bioware or from an outsourced developer.

Yeah. Most of the major reviewers are corrupt. They take the bribes. They are not totall shills, however.
There is kind of an indirect bribing going on.

Possible reasons - either your save game is got issues or the game data has.
Perhaps try uninstalling and re-installing the game (it shouldn't affect your save).
You could also try rebuilding the PS5 database?

Due to massive enhancements to performance and stability, the PlayStation 5 is Sony's best console to date. However, it has its fair share of issues. If the user interface acts sluggish or you notice odd quirks while interacting with your PS5, one possible reason is a cluttered, corrupt, or...

Fidelity looks so much better with RT, especially on puddles. But it is completely unplayable for me

Unplayable why? if you go from 60fps to 30 fps in an instant it feels jarring and bad, but give yourself time until your brain adjusts

It is too slow and unresponsive, particularly as i'm playing as a Rogue and doing Ninja Turtle shit.

I am playing this right now and it is not as bad as I thought, if I dont count the dialogue writing. I've only gotten Bellara so not that deep but combat is ok and responsive, environments are gorgeous especially artistically. Havent noticed anything special about the music which is not good considering ME trilogy had godtier music and DA2 still gives me shivers with the Rogue Heart song.
Unfortunately the dialogue drags it down, it is a shame a few weirdos at the studio had to push propaganda and bring some zoomer writers, this could have been a really good game actually. After Hinterlands in Inquisition, this style of linear zones with a few offbeaten pathways for exploration/loot is not bad, I'm digging it.

I believe it's using the hair and cloth simulation physics that they developed for the FIFA games, which also run on Frostbite.

The writing for this game can be very juvenile, half of the things that Rook says in this game, I dont even use in my day to day conversations. Skill-Up's review on this were very spot on. It's even worse for the romance options, they are so unrealistic its bloody weird. Last night Rook complimented Harding's hair, and then asked her if she was blushing....who says these things out loud??!!
Combat wise I can see how folks can get bored of it. While the enemies do vary in design, what they do is mostly the same. Its either a melee or ranged enemy. You avoid their attacks and kill them, there is no nuance to it. Should you sunder them first, or weaken them? There isn't any strong reason to when you can dispatch them with your attacks, the only difference is how long it takes. Maybe it matters on higher difficulty but at Normal this is how I felt.
Story wise its your normal world ending plot. Its not bad, its just there. Companion stories feel much better though. I'm at the point where I just got to free roam some areas now, so its pretty early on.
For the DEI agendas, its not like the game hammer this into your face all the bloody time, in fact I havent seen any of it ( apart from romancing Lucanis for now) I suspect it gets worse when I meet Taash (?) but this isnt a DEI simulator.
Having a pretty good time so far, I'm not hard to please. To also note I've very much enjoyed my time with games like ME Andromeda, Gotham Knights and Concord that many here deem dumpster fire so take my opinions as you will.

The dialogue feels like a cringe JRPG aimed at kids. I hate the fact that you can't just press a button and speed it up without skipping it entirely

I watched Kinda Funny review this game and one of the cast said Veilguard isn't a game that puts you as the main character in an RPG, you're playing this through the lense of Rook and Rook is a goody-two-shoes. This sort of changed they way I experience the game. The other DA games lets you really mold your own character.

GAF won't like this but I'm about 20 hours in and loving this way more than BG3.
BG3 always felt like I had to force myself to play it.
This I just keep wanting to dive in more naturally.
It's likely the combat. If BG3 could've been more action combat I would've been enthralled but I can't be bothered with crpg random dice crap. It's dull AF.

Think I'm far enough into this to say this games better than 2 and inquisition.
Which isn't saying a ton, but there you go.

From a staunch shit poster - happy for you, for real. Personal taste differs for everyone and if it nailed it for you, that's money well spent on your end.
For everyone else, they get to meme on it.
Both sides can happily coexist, in harmonious balance.

I bought it for the memes and here I am.
Granted I've yet to get the trans characters yet. Likely why the game so far has been fun.

Graphically this looks pretty good i have to say. I suppose the rest of the graphics looks also good (environment, special effects etc.)?

Yeah I haven't even tried BG3 as I've not liked any more traditional CRPG I've tried. Be it BG2, Neverwinter Nights etc. years ago or things like Pillars of Eternity or Divinity Original Sin 2 in more recent years.
I just in general don't like turn based combat, like that style even less than menu-driven JRPG combat, don't like dice roll RNG mechanics etc.
I think bk is live the setting, characters, story, choices etc of BG3, but just don't know that I could get through the combat. So it'on my list to check out if it hits PS+ or GamePass down the road or take a chance on then it's $10 or whatever later on.

PS5 has a 2 hour trial demo for BG3 and data Carrie's over.
But you'll spend one hour just making a character lol.

So the hair tech seems like the standout so far.

Yeah I read that. And I think it at least used to require PS+ Premium, which I've never had. That may have changed though as that was the case closer to the game's release.

General consensus is the character creator as a whole is very robust and probably the best part of the game. Most of the honest fun I've seen people have with this title has been before the game proper begins.

No way, 99% of JRPG dialogue is WAY more cringe and childish than what's on offer here.
At 15 hours one of my main complaints is still how dumb 90% of the armors in this game look. The designs are almost all shit that look like flamboyant costumes for a mardi gras parade.
Also grating is how "videogamey" they have made the world. They have these cities with beggars asking for coin but a few steps away is an unlocked chest with valuable gear, or crafting mats just there for the taking, or just straight up pouches of gold just sitting around. This kills any suspension of disbelief that this is a real world and is a significant design misstep imo. And that constant feeling you have to scour everywhere or be short stuff you need is just a constant lowlevel annoyance.
I still really like the combat, which is just challenging enough on default difficulty to keep you on your toes, though it at times feels like the training wheels are still on with how every combat area is littered with health pots. I also mostly am still liking the characters and their interactions.

I'm actually with you: 15 hours in, I'm finding myself wanting to jump back in all the time: kids dinner be damned! lol.
BG3, I found just as 'woke' as this: I actually got railroaded into romantic trist talks then twice with Gale: i just wanted to see some fucking stars man, have a bevvie under the moon: I for real got lured unawares on that one. Then he got all mad, my adventure bro all of a sudden was a spurned lover of sorts...annoyed the shit out of me actually.
Then all the rest of the LI's thought I was taken, by old mate, so that just soured me hard.
For all Veilguard's RPG-light dialogue, it's more obvious when you are talking turkey, haven't been tricked into any unwanted Bull woman peg sessions yet thank Andraste.
