Gods I feel you I'm only 10 hours in after having received the game as a gift and I REALLY try to like it but it just ... doesn't feel like Dragon Age. Characters know stuff they shouldn't know about, the game keeps talking down to me, nothing I did in the previous games mattered, the tone is completely different, the mature storytelling of the previous games seems to be missing so far & what I heard so far of how the lore and the characters from previous games have been handled is honestly the worst part and breaks my heart. idk even if i wanna finish the game at this point anymore, I'm just kinda ... sad.

I'm so sad and disappointed, too, I remember our conversations, fics, and headcanons about DA! We were so excited and happy, because Inquisition, DA2, and DAO were genuinely well-made and aimed at pleasing the fans, despite their faults.

DATV is a good action game, no doubt about that. The combat is fun, there is a lot to explore and discover, and many locations are beautiful, even though some are terrible to navigate (Dock Town's structure makes no sense). But that's it - it's a good action game with the name "Dragon Age" pasted on it. It doesn't feel like it's part of the series, it constantly treats the player like an idiot, some references to past games and characters are literally hidden in the brief descriptions of the mementos, and there is even a Glossary to make sure the new players don't get frustrated.

Everything is safe and aseptic, cleaned of every deep piece of lore that could have scared new fans into buying or continuing the game. Even the banters lack the depth of the previous games.

A good game company should lure new players in not by rejecting their past entries, but by making them look even more interesting with their sequels.

Bioware wasn't afraid of offering piece of lore after piece of lore in Inquisition - it was a game set in a precise moment, whose prologue was directly tied to the events of the previous game, and new players had to accept this if they decided to buy it and play it. If they liked that premise, all that information and those details, then they were more than welcome - they were encouraged! - to go back, try the older games, and see how it had all started. It was a game made for the fans the company had already managed to win over, not for possible fans who may or may not bring new money in.

In DATV the new players can jump right in after quickly learning who Solas is and what he's trying to do, and old fans are left with an empty shell, with minor references that are supposed to make us feel happy and accomplished peppered here and there, while all our past choices and our favorite characters are forgotten or brought back with a terrible case of amnesia. It's lazy, infuriating, and very sad, and it smells of reboot, because the new devs probably realized they couldn't keep up with the amount of lore and choices the series contain, and they needed to start anew.

thinking about if tos mccoy had died before romulus was destroyed, tos spock could've been carrying his not-quite-a-katra during the events of the aos movies

[grapecaseschoices]

just a smaaaaaaallll nitpick. but it really annoys me how da4 over explains ... or rather hand holds the audience. to the point that they neglect/forget what makes sense for the character.

what you mean my ANTIVAN CROW MAGE doesn't know how templars work in the north?? like unless i missed something and it's just that way in tevinter. but like .... shouldnt they at least know THAT. as a crow? even as a bad student??

it could've easily been rectified by having rook be like oh my bad, i've been in the south too long. or brain fart moment. i'm tired. or whatever else could fit there.

but nah. rook stands there like newb. why?

WARNING!!

I'm mostly just talking about broppy here lmao

—————

• moving onto the better fit for poppy I present to y'all my boy... shadow the hedgehog!!

he's definitely one of my favourite trolls this guy singlehandedly started the sassy man apocalypse LMAO

I think branch is good, he's alr and can you see that I can't properly express why I like him 😭

I think it's funny how he spends so much time hating on the trolls happy, fun and loud lifestyle while he's brooding in his corner or bunker

when in reality he feels lonely and does want to be included (BROZONE WHEN I CATCH YOU BROZONE.)

tbh that's probably one of the reasons why he loves poppy since she's always gone out of her way to include him when everyone else just gave up on him cuz of his moody attitude

like guys.. he kept all the invites she gave him... ☹️

when they were on their way to bergen town and all he did was complain about poppy's "poppiness" he never really was completely fed up with her (which kind of is a miracle) like look at his face in this scene where she's singing despite him complaining about it

LOOK HOW HE LOOKS AT HER

and I cannot find a screenshot for this scene BUT THAT SCENE OH. MY. DAYS.

the scene where everyone's freaking out on how to compliment gristle until branch speaks up and gives this absolutely beautiful compliment out of nowhere

but it's not out of nowhere yk why?? CUZ THAT'S JUST HIM DESCRIBING HOW HE SEES POPPY

"Your eyes, they're like two pools so deep, I fear if I dive in, I might never come up for air. And your smile, the sun itself turns jealous and refuses to come out from behind the clouds knowing it cannot shine half as bright."

"I kinda do have a nice smile, don't I?" - gristle's response

"Yes, you do."

AND THEN BRANCH LOOKS AT POPPY

I felt so normal when that scene happened cuz why would I let a trolls movie affect me that much?? 🙂

what's fucking insane tho is that they don't kiss at the end of the movie

like I'm not saying they're obligated to do so but when you basically say "I love you" to each other in I'm pretty fucking sure a /r way then I'm expecting y'all so smack lips by the end of the movie

broppy fans have been starving out there cuz these two bozos don't kiss until the lastest movie which came out SEVEN FUCKING YEARS AFTER THE FIRST TROLLS MOVIE

this is like one of the most evil things I've heard about canon ships LMAOO

anyways broppy wins and fuck creek can't believe poppy liked him 🙄

they should've gone thru with choking him to death ngl

[rollforjackass]

thank god i've come back to tumblr after all this time bc where else could i say "i've been simping for the scarecrow from batman begins lately" with impunity. anyway thank you cilian murphy for your service
