Skill up said it best, "You always speak like there's an HR in the room. The first Dragon Age starts with you attempting a cultist deadly rite of passage and now we're treating catfights at camping for bringing too many books" (paraphrased)
Compare Dragon Age Veilguard to Origins. Origins tackled some pretty heavy topics - famine, disease and orphans, bandits and thugs on the road, merchants hiking prices and exploiting the refugees during wartime, racism/segregation, sexism (especially female exploitation) but it added to the atmosphere since there was a Blight going on and people were flocking to major cities that were riddled with corruption. The Veil was something like a demonic world, spirits being able to posess children. Now look at Veilguard which is basically Dragon Age Disney+ version. Its tone is childish - similar to that of Guardians of the Galaxy, it becomes super preachy shoving down the idea of gender down your throat for no reason. The combat is fast paced and fun at first, but it gets repetitive relatively fast. And for PC players it's more or less a console port. The Keyboard/Mouse controls are atrocious.
Seems like it's the Warrior class that is the problem as you are getting through the game. Ppl say it will become underpowered and boring AF as to combat.
Exactly as you said : it's role fantasy playing game. There was no need to have that is the game. There is a lot of push back again this woke stuff because it's being forced down our throats in movie, games, on the street, sport events and so on. People are sick of being lectured every second, they just want to escape reality and enjoy a couple of hours without a lecture. We need to walk on eggshells just to not offend a group of narcissistic people that attack and lash out at everyone that doesn't play along with their delusion. Create your own thing, own game, own events.....don't just take over the things that regular people created and making your own, just to feel better about yourself. If this game was caled something else, nobody would care about this things. If I am was a huge fan of the series and buy it, I would have to tippy toe around the woke stuff in the game.
Its like with star wars outlaws: great visual game (minus face animations), fun, not that many bugs ( you do need an SSD to have it run smoothly.. i had my game crash a couple times using a regular HD, ditto when playing star wars outlaws). Its an rpg firstly and formost with dragonage esque themes loosely connected here and there. Yes dialogue is ....meh at times. I have noticed ever since cyberpunk2077 dropped some reviewers are rage baiting people just for $$$$$. Just like outlaws it deserves 6-7/10. The same people that are rage baiting their followers into hating the game are the same people that had issues with dragonage 2, dragon age inquisition or that were hating on fallout 4 when it came out.... I have subscribed sir.
This is a 5 out of 10 game at best. Just because the backgrounds look nice, doesnt mean its a good game. Normies and tourists always make this argument. Its annoying.
I just bought the game. So good so far. Dialogue is dog poop though and the facial animations are pretty atrocious. It's nothing groundbreaking but it's pretty fun so far.
It's a game dude. It ain't a big deal. I did write that comment after about 3 hours as well. After playing more, it's pretty damn repetitive and I don't know how anybody gave it a 9. It's about a 6-7 out of 10 for me atm. Still not very far in. I love you btw.
man 84 meta score from what? watch the audience score , thats always the real one. This is not a game, but a politcal agenda. How this abomination landed without any dev saying, this is shit i have no idea.
@@alexandrul.9910 Mostly positive on steam. So yeah listen to that, since the game is actually good. Unless your talking about user score on metacritic which are reviewbombs from inscure people. It’s 0-3’s and 9-10’s with less words than what I just wrote. And the majority of them haven’t played the game to begin with, they are just hurt that the game is a little woke.
Only a couple hours in at the moment and my take is: this is a good game, this is also a bad dragon age game. They absolutely should have made this game a different IP and I’d have been a lot happier with it.
you think that if it had a different name you wouldnt mind the awful story and constant reuse of lines or do you really forget what happened in past 20min so game has to remind you ..combat is bland lets be real , and story and execution is awful , it would have just been another average game no1 paid mind to and thats fine cuz those usually are not being developed 8-9 years with insane cost
@@lukalalosevic200combat is definitley not bland, there r so many different builds and skill trees in the game you can be super flexible with the dialogue is cringe at times sure, storytelling is actually not too bad at some parts and exploring was more fun than i expected, overall a 7/10 game imo
I agree that complaining about trans thig is silly ... but looking at it from a different angle that feature took away from them working on other stuff like ..writing good dialogs , thats why games like bg3 or cp77 are praised ..if the game is good no1 really cares all that much about it ...but on the other side are games like this one
@@attilamarics3374 its a fantasy ..who cares if it doesnt take away from good game...but as I pointed out if the game is good no1 gives a crap but if its crap..well we know how that goes
@@lukalalosevic200 It takes away tho. And Dragon Age has a world. A world in which this nonsense doesnt fit in. We arent just vomiting on a piece of paper and call it Dragon Age.

Im enjoying the game, just had to forget its a Dragon Age.
@@attilamarics3374 Idk if I’m just blind to it then. The only things I’ve noticed so far are from the options you CAN make in the beginning and the mirrior, but you can also ignore all that + a side quest with a character where you literally mention that it must be hard for her because her being multi cultural etc. Those are legit the only things I’ve taken notice of during my so far 26 hours with the game. So not even 10 minutes of my 26 hours has been “work”. Granted I’m not bothered by “wokness” so I probably don’t notice it as much as people who get’s triggered by it.
yer, _they_ gave a high score because it pleases a certain tiny group and not by written dialogues, choices, story, combat mechanics or even the gameplay. The artists depart did a fine I must give them that. Everything else is just unnecessarily forced, patronizing and a cringey ass garbage.
So The Liberal agenda is to take Beloved IPs and "modernize them". After Origins Old Bioware died. The New writers have an agenda to push these liberal ideas, often with forced amateur writing. Unlike BG3 which gives you the choice to never to go down that route, DA:V is so preachy that it is an insult to Traditional Lore/Setting and sentiment. If that's your thing feel free to make your own IPs. The Combat is so braindead (I've seen Streamers beat mobs blind), and so limited that it makes kids games like Ratchet and Clank look like technical wizardry. DA:V is a kids game with brainwashing.
Good video. I'm only 12 hours in myself. Sure, some of the companions are a bit cringe, and some are annoying when they state the obvious. But the main story is pretty interesting, and the combat is quite good too. Not a fan of my companions not being able to die and I kind of hate that you can't be evil. But honestly, you can kind of dodge the wokeness. I don't know do people forget you could have sex with Gale as a guy and the character creation let you have a pippi as a girl in BG3? And it won the game of the year award in 2023. I mean the companions are not as interesting as in BG3 but I'd say it's a solid 6, maybe a weak 7 out of 10 RPG so far after my 12h. If you like RPG's give it a shot
Every comment like yours seems to be making excuses for a really shit product. See this on every video. Shills trying to get people to waste their hard earned cash.
BG3 acknowledge LGBTQ, DAV forces wokeness down your throat. In BG3, you got your dark grim world, durge , from normal to sexy char design, characters figure of speech influenced by their background (lae'zel githyanki arrogance for example), you can be an asshole if you want, you can kill your companions and dress them up in whatever undergarments you want. in DAV, everyone sounds like they read the same book on how to talk & joke, went to school in California with their happy go lucky live laugh love I'm a strong independent person positive energy. I know cuz I studied there for 6 years and worked for 5. Your companions don't die. Worst person you can be is someone who is direct. Characters all looks mid and playing too safe. You literally have a 2 cutscenes with taash with the whole coming out as non binary and doing pushup to apologize for misgendering. pirated both, bought BG3 after and spent an extra 200 hrs on it. I'm now ~7hrs in DAV and the world is beautiful, combat is decent I heard it keep getting better but it such a fucking drag right now with all the Cali people. it's definitely not what I expect going from other dragon ages.
Skill up said it best, "You always speak like there's an HR in the room. The first Dragon Age starts with you attempting a cultist deadly rite of passage and now we're treating catfights at camping for bringing too many books" (paraphrased)
The gameplay and storytelling overall is pretty good tho
THANK YOU! There is so much drama in the big TH-camrs reviews, and you finally concentrated in the actual game, again, thank you for that.
Very slick video, great editing and you’re naturally relaxed on camera 👍🏼

even if that first review really liked the game unironically, saying its the best in the series is insane and lowers his credibility to the dirt
When i see "cinematic story" i know that its boring and stupid

Nothing is being forced. You do not have to play as a trans character. The option is there if you want to use it.

Only thing that this game is missing is break dancing competition to be perfect. 😂😂😂😂😂

inquisition was great
