Amo esta Saga de Video Juegos, pero como me arrepiento de gastarme lo que valia cuando salio esto, no me termine el juego, mi mente no dio para eso, porque no me gusto nada, las animaciones, el arte de los personajes, la manera de moverse por el mapa, la jugabilidad, nada, espero que a alguien le sirva de algo, a mi me gusta la saga, pero para mi la experiencia no es agradable
No geral, o jogo é ruim. Não por conta de pautas identitárias, políticas woke, etc. Os desenvolvedores forçaram a barra? Sim, parece que é uma forma lúdica que um RH criou de educar seus funcionários para aprender sobre gêneros, pronomes neutros e lugares de fala. Mas sinceramente, isso pode ser facilmente ignorado porque basta você não recrutar os companions que foram colocados para esse propósito específico, e o jogo permite que você ignore essa parte pois são side quests opcionais. Dito isso, o que me incomodou no jogo é que ele é extremamente genérico, mal escrito, com personagens chatos e previsíveis. É um jogo feito para adolescentes, e adolescentes ESPECÍFICOS da geração Z. A história sai da dinâmica de DA para girar única e específicamente em torno de personagens chatos, infantilizados demais e altamente previsíveis. Adultos não tem paciência para esse jogo. O jogo é extremamente raso, o seu personagem é obrigatoriamente politicamente correto, limpinho, sem profundidade humana, que só tem respostas legais e certinhas, que não desagradariam nenhum adolescente moderno e que seria muito bem quisto no recreio do ensino médio de escolas particulares. A BioWare deu o golpe muito bem dado, comprou a mídia especializada e trouxas como eu compraram achando que seria um RPG denso, bem elaborado e profundo, mas foi esse seriado de verão infanto juvenil. Sobre a mecanica, o jogo só erra mesmo no combate, que é muito desorganizado e não tem opção de fixação, então direto você estará dando sequência de golpes no ar. Porém os gráficos são muito legais, o jogo tem uma dinâmica mecânica tipo god of war, Prince of Pérsia, etc, sendo que não tem falhas ou bugs de cenário que mataram certos jogos desse tipo. O mundo não é aberto e o estilo é aquele estilo linear e preso, ou seja, você sente que você está o tempo todo progredindo e caminhando pra algum lugar dentro do jogo, então isso é positivo por um lado. Por outro lado, o jogo é simplificado ao extremo e o cenário (que é muito bem feito e bonito), acaba ficando sem sentido em algumas partes, pois você simplesmente não vai interagir com nada, nem ninguém. Enfim, se eu pudesse devolver, eu devolveria. Não gostei. Mas como paguei caro no jogo, vou pelo menos zerar de forma standart. Minha nota pra esse jogo é 3 de 10, e única e específicamente pelo visual e desempenho. História, desenvolvimento, personagens, combate, ação, estrutura de desenvolvimento na história e no jogo, estilo (de enredo, que deveria ser mágico/fantasia), tudo zero. O jogo é chato para adultos e cansa muito rápido. Até a escolha das respostas que você vai dar são chatas, porque são previsíveis demais, não fazem diferença no desenrolar dos eventos e o Rook foi escrito pra ser aquilo ali (chato). Jogo fraco, 100 gbs de espaço desperdiçados.
Another great series absolutely ruined by DEI hires.
Overall the game is solid, liked the upgrade system, combat and gameplay in general. Never had any game-breaking bugs and I believe it's optimized well considering it's a 2024 game. A lot of comments made it sound like this game is just about LGBTQ+ and it's too disrupting, but that is really just one character built around it and that's it, you can always skip the dialogues if it bothers you too much. Some dialogs and characters could have been written better, some lines are sloppy, but if you like Dragon Age saga, I believe you will enjoy Veilguard as well
This game appears ashamed that it is a Dragon Age game. It has decently engaging play, but it's a huge departure from how the previous games were played. Some aspects are fine, and honestly are improvements, but it feels like timing and strategy are much less of a component than just leveling up and obtaining items. It has an fine plot on the surface, but it contradicts lore and characterizations from previous installments. When it engages parts of the lore, it avoids going into the darkest and more interesting concepts that were drivers in previous games. So the result is a writing mess that would be midling to ok for a standalone game but in the end is an insult to anyone who liked any other games in the series. The best I can say is the writing is shallow. There are surface concepts, but it avoids engaging any deeper. It'll skirt the topics but avoid their conclusions. It relies a lot on "tell" and doesn't not have much "show." What's even more infuriating is the bones of good ideas and writing are there. But any build up or bite was sanded off. Choices rarely have consequences beyond the cosmetic. Or, if they do, the right choices are blaringly obvious. Many factions or characters are unrecognizable or odd, softer versions of how they were. Things that were interesting even when they were clunkily done in previous installments (different approaches to gender between nations, sexualities, tensions between races) are again, sanded down. For example, I AM mad about [spoiler] Taash's [/spoiler] story because of how black and white it is instead of embracing previously established lore [spoiler] about gender in the two cultures they are associated with. And that's not even getting into the weirdly racist idea that you have to choose one culture or the other entirely as an immigrant. [/spoiler] It's like a bunch of stockholders were allowed in all the meetings and went "hey so we want money from a Dragon Age game but we don't want a Dragon Age game because it's embarrassing." And the result is, ironically, an embarrassment to the franchise. If you don't know the series, are ok at turning off your brain, or you're interested in how much of a trainwreck of a franchise installment it is, the game can be fun. It just isn't fun if you played the games that came before it.
i'm a card carrying member of the tumblr crew, with dyed hair and pronouns and everything, and i found this game intolerable. beautiful scenery and character creation, stupid plot, stupid characters, just a waste of time and money.
I'm not LGBTQ or anything even though everyone seems to hate this title so much this is my first time playing this series and I actually enjoy the campaign and characters to interact with. I never played the first 2 games so I'm new to the series, but I like the action, gameplay and cinematic sequences are well executed here. Its graphically very demanding as you need a high end system to fully run this game , but its well optimized enough for a med to high range gpu if you have that. BioWare is known for creating some of the best RPG games that I have played before in the past. KOTOR, Mass Effect Trilogy and Anthem. Despite BioWare being owned by EA and they have a bad reputation, I hope they are able to stick around long enough to release the much anticipated Mass Effect 4 if it doesn't get cancelled somehow. Even though it seems only long time fans of the other Dragon Age games are bashing this title those new to the series like myself enjoy it so this comes down to an opinion of choice. Furthermore the game was discounted to $20 recently so for a title like this that was a substantial discount.
Очень хорошая игра, которую абсолютно незаслуженно загадили. - Визуально ОЧЕНЬ красивая. Одна только проработка причёсок нашего персонажа и остальных NPC чего стоит. Куча разнообразных локаций, как мрачных, так и цветастых, со своим тематическим оформлением и прочими атрибутами. - Боевая система простая в освоении и крайне разнообразная в плане стиля прохождения, и вариативности развития / прокачки. Только ради неё одной игру можно пройти раз 10 ). У всех напарников так же есть свои УНИКАЛЬНЫЕ умения, которые они могут комбинировать друг с другом, либо с вами. Это даёт свой ВЗРЫВНОЙ эффект. - Сюжет простой, вполне нормально написан. Для любителей почитать о истории вселенной есть очень обширный кодекс. Интересного там хватает. - Музыка разве что малость невыразительная. Может быть это не самый лучший Dragon Age (по мнению упоротых фанатиков), но извините меня, все игры этой серии сделаны по разному и сильно друг от друга отличаются. А все эти потрясающие разговоры о повестке и о якобы навязыванию всей этой темы игрокам... Вы в игру играли вообще, кретины? Из 75 часов всего прохождения, конкретно этой теме, времени уделяется от силы минут 20-40, МАКСИМУМ! И то, можно просто не трогать сюжетную ветвь одного конкретного персонажа, раз уж вы такие чувствительные.
This is a classic example of bad new games, better graphics, better looks and thats it, plus i saw pronouns at the character creation, 4 me, insta FAIL!
Clearly, I'd heard a lot about this game and the general feedback/response from some elements of the community. I don't get it. This game was excellent. The game is graphically gorgeous. The combat is pretty tight, if a little repetitive at times, the story arch is great and satisfying at the end(s) and it tied nicely into previous games; it felt like a genuine continuation. Some of the dialogue choices were a bit cookie cutter at times, and it falls into the Marvel trap of a lot of comebacks having to be short, pithy and witty, which isn't necessary a lot of the time, but it was otherwise a great game. The game is probably my second of the season, but I've loved all of them. The story was tighter and lacked much of the sidequest bloat associated with Inquisition. The areas were interesting, the puzzles were a bit simple but it all drove the story and the worldbuilding forward, and the game really shines with the worldbuilding, as most of the DA games do. It's a shame that the contention of some people around the non-binary character seemed to take over. It was handled pretty delicately and, far from the accusations levied against it, it wasn't shoved in your face at every opportunity. If you like the other DA games, play it. Don't let the echo chamber put you off. It feels like the next evolution of Inquisition, so if you liked that, go for it. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
