I’m so excited for this game, waited 10 years for this! My teen self all these years ago, she would have never thought this day would come. Definitely taking off the 31st & 1st to play this game.
OMG, YASSSSS!!! I was so happy to see your reaction. 🙌🏾😄 This Halloween is going to be so lit and the game looks so good. I hope you have been well, my friend!!! I absolutely love hearing your thoughts on the game and we agree on quite a bit of it!!! ❤
I’m so excited for Halloween!! Are you playing on release too? I really hope so! I hope you’re having a great end of the summer! I’m currently trying to pick my Veilguard boyfriend and I can’t decide between Davrin and Lucanis. But also… scout Harding.
@heyamarii I had a wonderful summer. I just celebrated my 41st birthday in July. I hope you had a glorious summer as well, my dear friend. How is your family and your beautiful kitten? I have already picked out my boyfriend, it is Davrin and my girlfriend is Neve. Real talk Lucanis is super cute. 🥰💜 I'm super excited to play this game. I've already chosen my class and play style, LOL. 🤣🤣🤣 have you already started creating your character? I will definitely be playing this game on release. I have already pre-ordered.
Stop! You look like you’re in your 20s! There is no way! Belated happy birthday!! Kids started school and it’s been hectic! But they’re so happy to be around friends again and so far they’re loving school. We haven’t had to drag them into the car yet 😂 Millie is such a sweetie, she comes when we call her and she cuddles all the time 🥺 Neve is going to be my best friend, I just know I’m going to find a sister in her. She is just so badass. I’m going back and forth with what race, faction and class I want to play. I wish the dwarves could be mages because I’m actually heavily considering playing a mage. What character will you be making?
@heyamarii I am beyond happy hearing about your family doing well. It's good that the kids are still enjoying school, lol. 🤣🤣🤣 Your kitten is just the cutest. I love all of her pictures. 🥰❤️ I absolutely agree. Neve is such a badass and that's part of the reason why I like her so much. 🫠😍 It would be super cool to see dwarfs play as mage, but understanding the lure, I can see why we can't play as a dwarven mage. I did answer this in your community post, but I'm definitely going to play as an Elven Mage Lord of Fortune. I even made a short video about him up on my channel, LOL.🤣 Thank you so much for the compliment about me still looking like I'm in my twenties. The same can be said about you, my friend. Also, thank you for the belated happy birthday. I appreciate it. 🙏🏾😄🩷
There is NO WAY. You got the good genes to be looking like that past 35! I’m very jealous of your skin 😂 please don’t tell me you’re one of those people who ever only use water on their face and nothing else. I hope it’s an entire skin care line keeping your vampiric youth, so us normal humans feel ok about ourselves lol It’s so funny and amazing that we found one another, well you found me, and we have the same taste in games and even character choices 😂 I wish’s I could pass Millie around to everyone here to have a cuddle. She’s the best cat I’ve ever had, sooo cuddly and really responds to people. She’s like a therapy cat or something in her last life
@@heyamarii I just can't believe it's almost here. Also, the wolf like thing that was jumping in slowmo to bite the dragon, I think that was Solas in his wolf form
Omg duh that’s the Dreadwolf!! lol my 1 braincell was lagging behind. Oh mannn I wonder what Solas is going to do. Is he going to fulfill his plan? Is he going to change his mind?
You’re right! I do remember him saying that. He needs to let us in. I must know his plans 👀 I miss Solas so much I’ll feel heartbroken again when Veilguard releases
I would pay $49 just for Morrigan alone 💖 I think that this was all actual gameplay and cut-scenes shot with custom camera angles. And "That" was Solas attacking one of the Elven gods in his Dreadwolf form 😲
Anything for Morrigan! It was such a surprise to see her! Actually hear her first. I could have sworn I read somewhere that she wasn’t returning for this Dragon Age…
@@heyamarii She can still turn into a dragon, and she has all of the memories of the old Elves. Maybe she's the one that trained the veil jumpers with her ancient knowledge.
Oooo you’re right, she could have trained that veil jumper? It’s a possibility. It is a little sudden to have someone with that ability, but with the veil being torn, Magic could be very screwy in this one. I was trying to figure out which dragon was Morrigan in this trailer lol
Each game improves dramatically when it comes to graphics and animation style. From Origin's long limbs, huge hands, and discolored complexions (yellow Leliana), to DA2's waxy skin, too-similar-faces, weirdly alien elves (Avatar?), and repetitive maps, to DAI's big foreheads, 16 types of bald, masculine walk for fem-Inquisitor, bland Qunari, empty/quiet maps, and mounts that blur and don't really make a travel difference. Despite whatever flaws they had, each game was great in their own way and I'm really excited to see what this one has in store for us. It looks like they really invested time to piece together lore from all of the previous games, books, and comics and worked to expand on things we've been wondering about for years. Very exciting!
I’m so happy that BioWare is NOT afraid to change. It’s a risk each time, but the potential to making something so great when not bound by expectations… I really can’t wait either!!!
I am SO EXCITED. The Dragon Age Origin fanboys will never be satisfied. The Reddit is absolutely abuzz with hype for the game. Can’t wait for Dragon Age Halloween! 💜
IM WITH YOU! I’m excited despite all my concerns, which I think everyone has valid concerns considering it’s shaky marketing. The art style does give me a little pause, and I’m worried about the small skill slots for mages… BUT I cannot wait for these 2 months to fly by so we can get our hands on this! It’s going to be the best Halloween ever! I’m actually considering dressing up for trick or treating this year I’m so excited haha
@@heyamarii I’ve been an OG fan since Origins and it’s not an excuse at all - but Bioware marketing has always been…odd - so I was wary but hopefully optimistic. Origin’s marketing was SO different from the actual game IMO.
I’m also cautiously optimistic, but have such big hopes for this game. Ngl if the story isn’t that good, or the companions not as lovable, I will be heartbroken. If it’s fun I’m going to be so happy!
This looks great!! I was already looking forward to Halloween but now I can't wait! I'm so excited 😅 I love the atmosphere actually, kinda reminds me of Origins and the art while not very appealing to me I'm sure I'll get used to it. They're gonna showcase more about the companions very soon and they're what makes DA games for me, hopefully they do them justice!
Halloween can’t come any faster! I’m going to be bouncing on my feet, counting the days! The art style will take me a while to adjust to I think, it’s not my favourite for character design. The landscapes are flipping beautiful though! The lighting done in the cities and the sunlight casting over the wilderness was something I know I’m going to love in this game. WHEN are they going to showcase the companions? Because I need to know more about bbgurl with the peg leg
@@heyamarii They say the week of August 26th will be companions showcase week according to their timeline! Maybe they'll take a day for every companion? Either way I'm so excited 😁 I wanna know a bit more about Lucanis, he is the one who most appeals to me rn but we'll see!
A day for each companion would be awesome! Any little morsel of this we can eat up to tide us over until Halloween. Lucaris is the necromancer? I wonder if we get a little backstory on the next one
@@heyamarii No Lucanis is the Assassin, he was featured in the DA based comics I think! Emmeric is the necromancer. I hope they do provide a bit of a backstory and maybe something about the romance ;) I loved the romance in Origins and DAI obviously (cause Cullen) I'm sad there seems to be no ex Templars I can swoon over but hoping Lucanis can maybe make up for it 😆
Definitely feels like a return to form for Dragon Age, I can’t wait to continue the story! Can’t believe this was 5 days ago, game’s gonna release before we know it.
4:40 Guess the Titans are waking up. This trailer was vastly better than the first teaser, got me excited. Also I'm glad that the creatures coming from the Veil are the Elven Gods and not the Magisters that got corrupted, I recently learned that The Architect is most likely a Magister who has just lost his mind and Inqusition there was a Codex log of a Dwarf witnessing an argument between 2 talking Darkspawn before one killed the other, so it seems like the other Magisters might be alive, just mad and wandering the Deeproads.
I agree! This trailer is leaps and bounds more exciting than the first one. The first one reminded me of a marvel trailer a little lol There was soooo much more in this one! I had to watch it again lol I’m so exhausted from work but I could not wait for tomorrow to see it. Facing the Elven Gods is exciting and terrifying! I was so intrigued by the elven ruins in DAI, I can’t wait to find out more about them. I recall the logs from a dwarf in the Deeproads, but I don’t remember the part with the conversation between Darkspawn. Interesting insight!
@havardhelgesen2906 yessss that’s what I want to hear! It’s so exciting meeting new characters and getting to know them. There’s also the comfort of having Morrigan, Varric, and Scout Harding there too
I have bad feeling about Varric, all his talks "take care of" in trailers.. Gameplay looks will be like mass effect, u just order 2 companions what to do. In Steam u can see screenshot with ability wheel and words "possible combo"
@MrEvilside oh no… please don’t let anything bad happen to Varric 🥺 It does remind me of ME, which… is quite a choice for fantasy. Makes the mage less appealing tbh, but at the same time I really enjoyed ME so I’m conflicted
I’m preordering it as soon as I wake up tomorrow! I have 5% battery left in my body lol Ugh such a hard decision! We’re in Tevinter and the spell effects look so cool that I’m actually tempted to play a mage. I almost never choose a mage. But also… the new fighting animations are just too hard to pass up, they look fun and super twirly like an acrobat. Targeting with a bow too! It’s going to be a hard choice for me between those two. What class are you going to play?
@@heyamarii first one mage for sure! Probably qunari, I want to make Daenerys Targaryen grey warden 🤣 I like role-playing her (I did on BG3 and liked it!). I also have some other ideas, I’m just not sure which I’m going to go with first😆
I’m with you there on the mage, I think this trailer convinced me. I’m like 80% sure I’ll make a mage first. Gosh I wish I could be a dwarf mage so badly just so I can be eye level with Scout Harding lol but alas
Game informer journals in July, 1 said that the skyhold of this game is in the fade. If harding spends time in the fade it's safe to say she will be affected by the magic. Dwarfs don't have magic because they have no connection to the fade.... but she will be living inside the fade and therefore gain magic
The veil being taken down does seem like a very likely explanation to Scout Harding’s sudden ability to use magic! I wonder how it will affect the rest of the dwarves, the ones who live purely underground that can sense the stone
How dare she lie to us! 😭how could she do this to my feelings. I’m so happy she’s back. I was so bummed when I heard she wasn’t in this one. When I first heard her voice I was confused because I was like… but that’s Claudia but she said she’s not here.. but it’s her
Silver with our Varric 🤍 it’s wild that I played a DA game for the first time when I was living in another country, I had a totally different job, no kids yet… this game has been going on throughout big stages of my adult life
I can't believe how good this trailer looks. WHY COULD THEY NOT MAKE THIS FOR THE PREMIERE?! I hope that the game will not disappoint me, because bioware is different, first they praise it and then things change. However, as for the announcement itself. I think Harding will get her powers mainly because she was close to the explosion where the old gods came out, but I'm probably wrong. The combat system looks good and I hope the story will be engaging. I'm already wondering who I will play, so while I don't have a problem with race because I always play as a human, when it comes to class, there will be a big problem between the mage and the rogue. I'm sure a longer gameplay will dispel my doubts.
This is the trailer they should have gone with! It’s so much better than the first and it was so exciting to watch! So many things going on in the video. Time will tell if they deliver, but I hope BioWare knocks our socks off with a good story and good companions! I hope hope hope! I can’t decide between mage and rogue now either. The new fighting animations look fun as hell, AND you can target arrows manually. I typically choose rangers and rogues in most RPGs, however… Seeing the spells in this trailer, it looks phenomenal. So bright and beautiful. And we’re in Tevinter
@@heyamarii My only fear is that such an "exciting fight" will become quite monotonous after a long time (I hope I'm wrong!), but what really worries me is the fact that these three have slots for abilities. So either you will have to go into the settings frequently and change abilities after the fight, or the fight will be so enriched with basic animations etc. that you won't notice how few abilities we have available (especially as a mage)
For spell casters, it’s definitely a concern. I even wanted to play as a mage for once because the spell effects look so good. I’m hoping for more to the combat, maybe there’s something we don’t see yet and we will only find out once we start playing. I hope it doesn’t feel monotonous. I felt the limited ability slots in DAI already… I am worried about that shrinking even more
With Claudia Black on board, this game just sky rocketed my excitement. I enjoy turn based games as much as I do action rpgs, so as long as combat feels fun I’m in!
@@KeelahSelai161 what changed in a month they removed title cards introducing the actors? same game same models same actors same every thing you just jumped the Hate gun to soon
Unfortunately the first trailer was a bit terrible. Though trailers are not really gameplay, they do set the tone of the game. So BioWare, or whoever did their marketing, showed a completely different tone than what we wanted from an adventure. I didn’t think to much of it, but I can see why so many did. This trailer IS fire and I couldn’t be more excited
I thought this was the start of another game at first. 😶Only just started Disco Elysium. This game looks nice though. They might've hired some other marketing people for this one.
damn im late for the reaction video. finally a better trailer right? btw shall i anwer some of your "what is that?" 's. not sure if it spoil some things.all are fan theories btw.
@@heyamarii Alrightly lets see. 4:41 remember sandal (ENCHANTMENT!!!) went missing in deep roads in DA2 and when we found him he turned a ogre into stone/ice. this kinda looks like this. so sandal might return or scout harding(maybe all dwarves) will get magical abilities. like that characetr in DAI deep roads dlc. 6:21 pretty sure that the fade 6:39 now thats interesting. remeber in DAO they discribe how they make broodmothers. that fits the discription i think. 7:37 seems like she is activating an eluvian 7:53 that right there is green lantern 😂 (i have no idea btw) 8:11 morigan is wearing flemeth's head piece 8:45 that right there is the DREADWOLF aka solas take a look at the horns of this dragon 8:41 and compare with Elgar'nan. there you go.
@disharahettiarachchi315 omg I remember that ENCHANTMENT guy lol that just unlocked a weird nostalgic feeling from my uni days living in my tiny apartment lol I forgot that he was different… I love your breakdown! And scrolling back to the timestamps you put in. Ahhh! This is exciting thank you for tagging these for me. I did notice Morrigan was wearing the headpiece, but I wasn’t quite sure at the time. I thought I was reading too much into it The green lantern though 😂😂
@@heyamarii haha me too it always feel nostalgic when we talk about DA games 🤩. and you are very welcome. love seeing you excited. here is something extra 5:20 looks like gona get a skeleton party member??
I was not familiar with EA’s game engine, so I had to look it up! It seems it’s quite difficult for devs to work with, a steep learning curve just to begin. That sounds… awful. A huge problem we always face is proprietary technology, it’s not friendly for users at all
Maybe, just maybe, next time you do a second watch of a trailer to get your thoughts out, just pause every now and then to actually collect your ideas and put them into words. As it was, it seemed like you were constantly leaving thoughts half baked and comments incomplete, because something else came out on the screen and distracted you or demanded attention. Just my two scents 👌
Still a hard no for me, Morrigan can't save this mess. The Vincent Price necro is just the worst. The toon char style and over the top combat acrobatics are so ludicrous and sadly, so common now. Typical Bioware progression, first game is outanding and fun, game 2 in a series is made by interns, game 3 in a series is a shiny, convoluted mess full of time sinks and magical "I Win" professions. If this game is an indication I never want to see a Mass Effect 4.
Valid concerns, and I too find the necromanced a little on the toony side. Not sure why this character looks so out of place next to the rest but I hope his personality has some redeeming qualities 😂 DAI ended up having a really good story, despite having a ton of mmo style quests. Glad I could progress the game and skip all those fetch quests. I hope BioWare has done away with those, because it wasn’t fun at all. I never played Mass Effect Andromeda, would that be considered ME4? Not sure if it’s a follow up on ME3 or a spin off.
If you are looking for Dragon Age Origins 2.0 you will never be satisfied. Dragon Age has always been about it’s story primarily - and so many of y’all have made if your mission to hate Bioware on principle. The fandom as a majority is HYPED, and this trailer is awesome.
8:46 oh that’s Solas in his actual Dreadwolf form!
I only just realised it when someone pointed it out! I completely forgot about the Dreadwolf part 😂
It's not cinematic, it's just alternative camera angles for SOME of the scenes. It's all in game and how it'll look❤
You’re right! Not cinematic, different camera angles. My brain was not at full capacity 😂
This trailer got me REALLY excited
I’m so excited for this game, waited 10 years for this! My teen self all these years ago, she would have never thought this day would come. Definitely taking off the 31st & 1st to play this game.
Only 2 more months! Let us hope for the best, and that we are served an amazing adventure.
I might take that mini holiday with you 😂

It's also been spoken that more people are able to use magic with the viel being taken down and this could start causing dwarfs to gain magic
The veil being taken down does seem like a very likely explanation to Scout Harding’s sudden ability to use magic! I wonder how it will affect the rest of the dwarves, the ones who live purely underground that can sense the stone
She wouldn't be the first dwarf to use "Enchantment" 😂
Morrigan is back! You better believe it!
I know that voice from anywhere! And she’s wearing Flemeth’s headpiece 👀
Claudia told people when asked that she wasn't coming back so she lied. No big surprise there. Worth a laugh or two.
How dare she lie to us! 😭how could she do this to my feelings.
I’m so happy she’s back. I was so bummed when I heard she wasn’t in this one. When I first heard her voice I was confused because I was like… but that’s Claudia but she said she’s not here.. but it’s her
2:27 That little skeleton is so cute! Why is no one talking about him? 🙃
His name is Manfred :D
lol that skeleton is pretty dang cute though
I was 23 when Inquisition came out, now I'm 33 and turning silver with Veilguard lol.
Silver with our Varric 🤍 it’s wild that I played a DA game for the first time when I was living in another country, I had a totally different job, no kids yet… this game has been going on throughout big stages of my adult life
I can't believe how good this trailer looks. WHY COULD THEY NOT MAKE THIS FOR THE PREMIERE?!
I hope that the game will not disappoint me, because bioware is different, first they praise it and then things change.
However, as for the announcement itself.
I think Harding will get her powers mainly because she was close to the explosion where the old gods came out, but I'm probably wrong.
The combat system looks good and I hope the story will be engaging.
I'm already wondering who I will play, so while I don't have a problem with race because I always play as a human, when it comes to class, there will be a big problem between the mage and the rogue. I'm sure a longer gameplay will dispel my doubts.
This is the trailer they should have gone with! It’s so much better than the first and it was so exciting to watch! So many things going on in the video.
Time will tell if they deliver, but I hope BioWare knocks our socks off with a good story and good companions! I hope hope hope!
I can’t decide between mage and rogue now either. The new fighting animations look fun as hell, AND you can target arrows manually.
I typically choose rangers and rogues in most RPGs, however…
Seeing the spells in this trailer, it looks phenomenal. So bright and beautiful. And we’re in Tevinter
@@heyamarii My only fear is that such an "exciting fight" will become quite monotonous after a long time (I hope I'm wrong!), but what really worries me is the fact that these three have slots for abilities. So either you will have to go into the settings frequently and change abilities after the fight, or the fight will be so enriched with basic animations etc. that you won't notice how few abilities we have available (especially as a mage)
For spell casters, it’s definitely a concern. I even wanted to play as a mage for once because the spell effects look so good.
I’m hoping for more to the combat, maybe there’s something we don’t see yet and we will only find out once we start playing. I hope it doesn’t feel monotonous. I felt the limited ability slots in DAI already… I am worried about that shrinking even more
I think the actors look as good as baulder gate 3 actors and the game play is fire
With Claudia Black on board, this game just sky rocketed my excitement. I enjoy turn based games as much as I do action rpgs, so as long as combat feels fun I’m in!
gameplay trailer was terrible how its look fire :D
@@KeelahSelai161 what changed in a month they removed title cards introducing the actors? same game same models same actors same every thing you just jumped the Hate gun to soon
Unfortunately the first trailer was a bit terrible. Though trailers are not really gameplay, they do set the tone of the game. So BioWare, or whoever did their marketing, showed a completely different tone than what we wanted from an adventure. I didn’t think to much of it, but I can see why so many did. This trailer IS fire and I couldn’t be more excited
@@heyamarii who is we
I thought this was the start of another game at first. 😶Only just started Disco Elysium. This game looks nice though. They might've hired some other marketing people for this one.
Yea the marketing was strange, the first trailer had a completely different tone so it wasn’t received well. They should have led with this one
damn im late for the reaction video. finally a better trailer right? btw shall i anwer some of your "what is that?" 's. not sure if it spoil some things.all are fan theories btw.
These are all theories! So spill them! We don’t know everything for sure yet, it’s fun discussing theories.
@@heyamarii
Alrightly lets see.
4:41 remember sandal (ENCHANTMENT!!!) went missing in deep roads in DA2 and when we found him he turned a ogre into stone/ice. this kinda looks like this. so sandal might return or scout harding(maybe all dwarves) will get magical abilities. like that characetr in DAI deep roads dlc.
6:21 pretty sure that the fade
6:39 now thats interesting. remeber in DAO they discribe how they make broodmothers. that fits the discription i think.
7:37 seems like she is activating an eluvian
7:53 that right there is green lantern 😂 (i have no idea btw)
8:11 morigan is wearing flemeth's head piece
8:45 that right there is the DREADWOLF aka solas
take a look at the horns of this dragon 8:41 and compare with Elgar'nan. there you go.
@disharahettiarachchi315 omg I remember that ENCHANTMENT guy lol that just unlocked a weird nostalgic feeling from my uni days living in my tiny apartment lol I forgot that he was different…
I love your breakdown! And scrolling back to the timestamps you put in. Ahhh! This is exciting thank you for tagging these for me. I did notice Morrigan was wearing the headpiece, but I wasn’t quite sure at the time. I thought I was reading too much into it
The green lantern though 😂😂
@@heyamarii haha me too it always feel nostalgic when we talk about DA games 🤩.
and you are very welcome. love seeing you excited.
here is something extra 5:20 looks like gona get a skeleton party member??
I noticed the skellie was keeping items inside his ribs! I think that’s the necromancer’s undead
This game looks like shit, my Warden romanced Morrigan, she looks awful in this game
We are Getting a 500 Yeear old game Engine for dragon age Veil guard Ea mismanagement Problems this game will Not Age well
I was not familiar with EA’s game engine, so I had to look it up! It seems it’s quite difficult for devs to work with, a steep learning curve just to begin. That sounds… awful. A huge problem we always face is proprietary technology, it’s not friendly for users at all
Maybe, just maybe, next time you do a second watch of a trailer to get your thoughts out, just pause every now and then to actually collect your ideas and put them into words. As it was, it seemed like you were constantly leaving thoughts half baked and comments incomplete, because something else came out on the screen and distracted you or demanded attention.
Just my two scents 👌
Maybeeee :3
Still a hard no for me, Morrigan can't save this mess. The Vincent Price necro is just the worst. The toon char style and over the top combat acrobatics are so ludicrous and sadly, so common now. Typical Bioware progression, first game is outanding and fun, game 2 in a series is made by interns, game 3 in a series is a shiny, convoluted mess full of time sinks and magical "I Win" professions. If this game is an indication I never want to see a Mass Effect 4.
Valid concerns, and I too find the necromanced a little on the toony side. Not sure why this character looks so out of place next to the rest but I hope his personality has some redeeming qualities 😂
DAI ended up having a really good story, despite having a ton of mmo style quests. Glad I could progress the game and skip all those fetch quests. I hope BioWare has done away with those, because it wasn’t fun at all.
I never played Mass Effect Andromeda, would that be considered ME4? Not sure if it’s a follow up on ME3 or a spin off.
@@heyamarii Andromeda is "in universe" but stand alone.
If you are looking for Dragon Age Origins 2.0 you will never be satisfied. Dragon Age has always been about it’s story primarily - and so many of y’all have made if your mission to hate Bioware on principle. The fandom as a majority is HYPED, and this trailer is awesome.
Darker blood? You realize blood is much brighter when it's fresh, right?
