I got the latest issue of the "GameStar" magazine (the article itself was already published online two months ago apparently, but the hard copy came out three weeks ago), which had a few pages about Veilguard (and a review of the whole series), and while it didn't include any new information, I thought the final "personal opinion" piece by the author was really sweet, so I wanted to share it on here, too. (The author is this magazine's editor-in-chief, who was one of the journalists who got to see the full one-hour presentation of Veilguard at Summer Game Fest. I tried to translate it as best as I could. :3)

"Dragon Age means the world to a lot of my colleagues. To my co-worker Alex Schneider, the artbooks are pretty much part of his office equipment, Heiko's boss Rae can basically quote the prequel novels from memory — backwards —, and my co-worker Steffi rushes through the hallways like a vacuum cleaner every time there is the tiniest new piece of rumor about Dragon Age to "absorb". I am more lukewarm about it. Yes, I've played Dragon Age Origins multiple times and enjoyed it very much, but Thedas was always too theatrical and not believable enough of a world for me to really get immersed in it. So the fact that even I walked out after the one-hour presentation thinking: "Damn, when is my flight back home, I need to (re)play the whole trilogy again!" - that's saying something. Again: The Veilguard still has a lot to prove. That it knows how to fill its world in a meaningful way, that its mechanics offer enough depth and most of all: That it tells a good story. But during my conversation with Corinne, every second felt like I was talking with people that understand exactly what made Dragon Age so good. The kick-off to Veilguard is as brilliant as it is intense, sparks curiosity for its world and amidst all the action, it doesn't forget to show a bit of heart. Whatever comes out of it after its release: For years Bioware hasn't looked as promising as it does now."

I also got the "PC Games" magazine, but that one had even less information than GameStar, even though they put it on the cover? :/ (Had to buy it anyway of course, because it has Dragon Age on it 🤡❤️)

Listened to the Ethics Town finale yesterday and oh my god!! Artemis!! Everyone becomes mayor because they think they can do better, but they never can, because it's not the person in charge that's the problem, it's the system itself!! It's a violent cycle, what's seen as old and outdated and wrong is pushed out and replaced by what is seen as new and positive and right!!! But without a drastic change to the fundamentals of the system, nothing can change in any way that matters!!!! It's an ouroboros of politics and morality and ethics!!!!! You've got to bite off your own tail to make things better!!!!!! Oh my god they can't hear me, they're all just characters in a story and they know it!!!!!!

And it's also like. if you have no internal sense of your own gender, and you're just gnc sometimes because traditionally feminine stuff is simply harder to do. At what point do you just flip to a different gender in the minds of everyone around you and then if you've basically outsourced your gender to everyone else does it just change? if I started acting feminine would it change back? is it different on different days? how is a person supposed to form a coherent identity in this world

Chciałabym się dzisiaj z Wami podzielić pewnym wartościowym podcastem, który wczoraj otrzymałam do obejrzenia od mojej mentorki. Sama bardzo dużo słucham podcastów, jak tylko mam wolną chwilę lub podczas robienie makeup'u, sprzątania, gotowania… To naprawdę wzbogaca, pozwala szybciej zmienić mindset na bardziej pozytywny i przede wszystkim poprawić wiarę siebie. Jest też zdecydowanie lepsze od bezsensownego scrollowania tiktoka.

Jeśli zdecydujecie się go przesłuchać i jesteście mniej cierpliwymi ludźmi to polecam zacząć od 5 minuty 😉

Pragnę też podzielić się paroma wnioskami, do których doszłam po przesłuchaniu podcastu i później zamierzam je zapisać w swoim journalu, a wstawiam je poniżej ⬇️

• Sukces odnosi tylko ta osoba co wytrwale realizuje wartościowy cel. Ustala, że będzie pracować, by być taką, a nie inną osobą i wytrwale dąży do tego więżąc, że jej się uda.

• Nie podążaj ślepo za tłumem. Nie popadaj w konformizm. (Jest to zmiana zachowania pod wpływem innych ludzi).

• Dzisiaj tak naprawdę nie ma konkurencji, z wyjątkiem tej, którą sami sobie stworzymy. Zamiast konkurować z innymi, powinniśmy zacząć kreować siebie, swoje, życie i swoją przyszłość.

• Szczęście można przyciągać. A mianowicie stajemy się tym, o czym myślimy. Musimy tylko z pełną premedytacją myśleć, tak jakby nasz cel był już osiągnięty i zachowywać się jak osoba, która już go osiągnęła.

• ✨Działaj tak, jakby porażka była niemożliwa - moje nowe motto #1✨💎

• ✨Zachowuj się jak osoba, którą chcesz być, a staniesz się nią - moje motto #2✨
