i tried so hard to fight it but im just actually so disappointed with veilguard.

as a video game, its fine! the gameplay is fun and it’s visually stunning. but as a dragon age game it’s… not good. even if we somehow ignore all the massive world breaking lore inconsistencies, it’s supposed to be a story heavy RPG. but it’s so shallow, so surface level. there are so many issues with so many of the decisions the devs or ea or whoever made leading to the final state of this game and it’s actually so sad.

I feel like im grieving what could’ve been, making new saves in hopes it’ll somehow be better this time around, and it just isn’t.

#dragon age critical #veilguard critical #dragon age #spoilers #dragon age spoilers #the more i think about it the more i realize how much is wrong #even little things like why lyrium is red #or like why is neve/bellara just fine after being completely blighted?#why do we get a little -blighted- status effect that means absolutely nothing?#why are all the factions sterilized #why can’t I be an asshole? why do all my choices end up coming out kind of snarky goofy like they chose my personality for me?#why can’t I even be a properly SERIOUS or stoic char like #I know it’s not an open world but it actually feels like it too. there are other way better games that are closed world but it doesn’t FEEL #closed world #only arlathan felt open. every other location was so underwhelming #idk it’s so sad bc i’ve been waiting so long and I rlly tried to give it a chance but it’s just so disappointing #idk there’s too many things to even list here #im just sad :/ and I think im done playing #da:tv
