is it just me or is bioware spoiling way too much about the game . talking about gameplay improvements is one thing but revealing story and companion arcs seems very insecure to me bc now the mystery is gone when people play for the first time . seems like they're trying too hard to prove that their game isn't garbage after that first trailer but this is not how you do that

#show gameplay #show how side quests work #show how the levels work if it isn't 'open world'#show crafting systems show transmog and a quick demo of how companion approval looks #show us the goddamn character creator already #even just show how the lighthouse works but dont?? start companion quests??#like it makes sense now why the writers were adamant that taashs pronouns were she/her idk why they had to reveal that point of their arc #bc youre NOT supposed to know what theyre going through yet . i liked the mystery surrounding them but ok thats gone #ive never seen this happen b4 i would never promote my game or writing through spoilers youre just sabotaging yourself #luckily for most people their brains are small so they might forget anyway #but still this is a weird marketing strategy #how did larian manage to pull in so many people through a stupid bear stunt and no story spoilers #and bioware has to cry and scream about how☝️🤓solas is good actually and our companions are soso complex trust us please please please plea #and also don't get me started on the character and enemy designs . a downgrade for sure #um lol also its a bit weird that taash is the only nb one but this isnt the post to talk about that .#bioware making their trans rep weird yet again . all we need is for rook to ask taash invasive questions and welcome back krem dragon age #six speaks #bioware critical
