I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

toxic-inferno114d ago

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Profchaos114d ago

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

jznrpg114d ago

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb114d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Rebel_Scum114d ago

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

Thats a pity. A remaster Trilogy would sell a lot better than the game they released last year.

TheEroica202d ago

Speak for yourself... Some of us are tired of remastered/remakes. Maybe this industry could show a little originality or progress a thought forward. Pass on dragon age remastered. Make a competent dragon age game or fold up shop.

FullmetalRoyale202d ago

They did speak for themselves.

jambola202d ago

At what point did they indicate they were speaking for anyone else?

Lionsguard202d ago

No, they would have just ruined it by retconning things with their agenda.

Ristul201d ago

Exactly, while I love the orginal game (origins) they would have censured the hell out of it and replaced it with wokeness.

-Foxtrot203d ago

I would have rather seen a remake of Origins which added onto it with more content than Dragon Age 4

If successful they could have continued on from it ignoring the other DA games.

Christopher203d ago

Lore dump in Veilguard was very good and I enjoyed the game for that.

I would not at all be opposed to more of a 'remake' of the first game, though. Not sure a 'remaster' with better graphics and whatnot would really pull me in if it didn't include more updated controls and gameplay.

Armaggedon202d ago

Yeah, your right about the lore, and thats the reason I like dragon age in the first place. I think thats why theres such a divide with veilguard. Those that fell in love with dragon age for the rpg mechanics were gravely disappointed.

pwnmaster3000203d ago (Edited 203d ago )

Honestly I tried getting into dragon age 4 but just couldn’t man and it wasn’t that political BS, annoying yes, but not game killing. It just wasn’t it for me.
I would rather they just remake the original and stay true to the original

anast202d ago

It's not a good game. But if a few trans and gay people upset you, then you have some issues with stuff beyond politics.

pwnmaster3000202d ago

Didn’t care for it.
Annoying yes, because it’s dragon age.
That whole trans and binary just didnt fit in and felt force.

But like I said it wasn’t game killing. I just found it boring.

andy85202d ago

Ill always have the argument you only see it if you go looking for it. Im not gay or trans, it was a 2 minute scene you can literally skip and then you dont see any more of it in the game. Didn't bother me at all.

pwnmaster3000202d ago (Edited 202d ago )

@andy
It really wasn’t 2 min and it was pretty much one characters identity lol.
Like I said it wasn’t game killing.

But to pretend it wasn’t stupid the way they went about it.
Sounded like something from our world would say.
Like wtf, i want fantasy to run away from our world.
I think it’s dumb asf to use real world terminology for real world problems in a game that isn’t set in ours world/altworld

Armaggedon202d ago

Understandable, it is a very different game in many ways.

@anast
I think it was a good game. Who is actually right here?

anast201d ago

It's not a good game. People people liking something is not always a good metric. People like sh%& games, I even like a few sh&% games myself.

Armaggedon201d ago (Edited 201d ago )

Thats the understanding people lack.

People set standards of what is “good”. Interestingly, it is a strange form of confirmation bias, in which people look for evidence to support what they deem “good or bad” about a title. That is why we have so many people that say that starfield does nothing new…when that is literally what it does..something new…for Bethesda at least.

I have had people call me trash before, moments before I obliterate them in whatever it is we are playing. Broaden your awareness, and you will know of what I speak.

isarai203d ago

That's ok, they probably would've sullied it somehow anyways

LucasRuinedChildhood203d ago

What was wrong with Mass Effect Legendary Edition?

Terry_B203d ago

Miranda Lawson..and a bit more.

franwex202d ago

Right? I’m actually glad they left it alone.

Next Year, I Promise I Will Play A Different Character In Dragon Age: Origins

I've played the exact same Warden in Dragon Age: Origins for years. In 2025, I will finally make a different one. Maybe.

Tried it before, doesn't work. I tried to to play a Dalish archer but ended up being a Dwarf Noble warrior again, must be a bug

OtterX425d ago

Next year is tomorrow, so you'll start a new character tomorrow, right? 🤔

OtterX425d ago

It's not now, at least where I live. It's 2025 as of 2 hours ago. :P

Bercilak425d ago

Seriously? I play every playable character there is: a male human noble.

TheColbertinator425d ago

My preferred origin is Dalish Elf Archer that recruits the Templars, Baelen's Dwarves with Golems and Dalish Elves. Took me 3 playthroughs to lock down a "true" file for me. What a game.
