Dragon Age™: The Veilguard

Overall I enjoyed this game. It was certainly worth the sale price point. The game is 60ish hours of fully exploring everything. Unlike the grinding 200 I had in inquisition. Having played all 4 games in a row this year you can really feel the quality of life upgrades from it being a modern game like changing character look and clothing after the create screen. The music and gameplay was fine and immersive. Not being a stationary lighting rod like in previous games was fun. The maps were not too massive or small and puzzles were not too complicated and fast travel points were plentiful. As far as replay value there are some decisions you may want to redo but only 1 is really significant to the overall story and I finished the game satisfied. I'm neutral on this but they removed the tactical if else statements from previous games. I think the disappointing parts were: BioWare is not using the previous game world state enough but I did appreciate the attempt to use some of the old characters albeit for just a scene or too. Dragon battles like previous games were basically the same fight but with different elements. I wish they gave them more depth. Personally I would like it if it was like the first game where the player's origin story completely changes the beginning of the game and where other choices made throughout the game were more impactful. I would have loved for it to have the replay value Origins had. Absolute travesty you only get 3 spells. That is ridiculous. Even if it is for console optimization at least give us more. I played inquisition with a controller and we had way more then. This led to me getting skills in my tree that I had no way of using even if I wanted too.

Интересная история, старые герои. Но как же бесят побочки в конце игры)

Um excelente jogo

Ich muss sagen, dass Game ist ein muss, mir hat am meisten die Elfen und Wächter Nebenstory gefallen. An manchen Truhen kam ich nicht rann warum weiß ich nicht, hatte alle Nebenquest gespielt und trotz dessen, naja. Mich hätte noch gefreut wenn es ein New Game + gegeben hätte. 9/10

Jogo até o momento muito bom, eu achei as críticas feitas muito desnecessárias e não condizentes com a situação do jogo. Vale o tempo de jogar, mas óbvio não se compara ao Dragon Age Inquisition mas até agora estou gostando da história, do jogo e da gameplay.

good gameplay, bad writing, 7.5/10

J'ai beaucoup aimé. Le jeu est assez similaire au 2 en terme de gameplay. Il s'agit clairement d'une conclusion de toute la saga jusqu'à présent pour pouvoir passer à autre chose. (Eh oui les débiles qui crachent sur le jeu n'ont pas encore compris que les personnes qui ont fait les meilleurs épisodes, notamment Origins et Inquisition ne sont plus chez Bioware) L'aventure est plutôt bien rythmée et je me suis complètement retrouvé dans cet univers que j'adore. Il y a un petit twist scénaristique vers la fin que j'ai pas vu venir et c'était bien chouette. Et si on pousse son playthrough bien comme il faut on voit à la fin avec une petite séquence supplémentaire que la suite de la franchise est déjà pensée. Je crois que les deux seuls points négatifs que j'ai vu dans le jeu sont : - Les conneries Woke. (avec les pronoms et autres débilités. Ce qui gâche complètement tout ce qui tourne autour de Taash malheureusement) - Et enfin le jeu est trop "propre". DA est un univers de dark fantasy. Dans les précédents épisodes après un combat on était couvert de sang. La on est tout le temps clean. Ca manque de crade et de dégueu même dans tout ce qui touche à la "blood magic" tout est vraiment trop propre. Dans tous les cas si vous avez aimé les précédents, vous devriez aimer celui-ci. Peu importe ce qu'en disent les puristes qui n'arrivent pas à passer au delà d'Origins et Inquisition.

It wasn't as bad as many say. Sometimes games are just ok.

I saw a lot of content criticizing this game, the people involved in its development, and all the circus built around it. After playing for nearly 60 hours and unlocking all achievements, I can say a few things: Story: The story is acceptable, although there are moments where the writing feels somewhat forced, and the dialogue comes across as monotonous and almost robotic in tone. Agenda / Message: There are many elements tied to a diversity agenda—unnecessary additions targeted at a virtually non-existent audience that, in many cases, isn't even part of the gaming community. Impact on the Studio: This game was a major nail in BioWare's coffin, leading to multiple restructuring processes and layoffs of people who shouldn't have been there in the first place. They allowed their personal bias to bleed into content where it didn't belong. A harsh lesson for game developers. Performance & Bugs: The game is riddled with bugs. I had to reinstall it twice; some save files get corrupted, and there are severe texture rendering issues, among other glitches. Combat: The combat system is barely acceptable. Difficulty & Achievements: The achievements are easy to get. The game never feels challenging; instead, it seems to hand you progression on a silver platter. In short, I played it, 100% completed it, and I have no intention of ever touching it again. If you want to try something different with an open mind, while still keeping a critical eye, go right ahead. It is not a game for everyone. It serves mostly to satisfy your curiosity about how a disaster is built. Let's see what BioWare brings us with Mass Effect 5... Did they actually learn anything from this mess?
