Dragon Age™: The Veilguard

Dragon Age: The Veilguard Review Graphics & Zones: 10/10 This is easily the strongest part of the game for me. The environments are beautiful and have a really distinct artistic style. There were multiple times I actually stopped progressing just to take in the scenery instead of running straight through an area. Every zone felt like it was designed to be looked at. Story: 6.7/10 Prologue: 7/10 It captured my attention, but it wasn't anything incredible. My biggest issue was that I wish there had been more time building up the team instead of essentially dropping you into an established group. Act 1: 10/10 This was fantastic. The pacing, reveals, momentum, and feeling that something bigger was happening all worked really well. This was when I was most invested in the story. Act 2: 4/10 This is where the game really lost me, especially because it's such a huge portion of the game. The story basically becomes "we can't deal with the big bad until everyone works through their personal problems." Companion quests went from something I wanted to do into something I felt forced to do. At times, it felt more annoying than a fetch quest. Act 3 & Ending: 6/10 I actually liked the ending I got, and there were some good moments. The problem was that by this point I was already feeling serious game fatigue, which took away from the impact. Companions: 5.7/10 Bellara: 4/10 Not particularly compelling for me. She could be annoying and uncertain early and mid-game, although I thought she became much more interesting toward the end. Davrin: 8/10 One of my favorites. His history with the Grey Wardens is interesting, and his griffin adds a genuinely fun and wholesome element to his story. Emmrich: 10/10 Easily the most fascinating companion story to me. His entire storyline was unique and consistently interesting. Harding: 6/10 Interesting story, but it felt rushed. There was a lot more potential here than the game actually gave her. Neve: 4/10 She never really felt like she developed. She seemed largely the same character from beginning to end, and I felt like her story was somewhat left behind by the end. Lucanis: 7/10 I liked his story and he plays an important role. Some of the choices I made prevented me from seeing as much of his storyline as I would've liked, though. Taash: 1/10 This is where the stoicism really didn't work for me. The character is presented as "I don't care about anything," but then constantly behaves more like a child who absolutely does care. I liked the dragon-hunter concept and some of the abilities, but the actual character was extremely difficult for me to enjoy. Combat & Skill Tree: 6/10 The combat is fun enough, but the progression is disappointing. You get through most of the really exciting abilities and upgrades relatively quickly, so by the final third of the game I rarely felt like I was gaining something genuinely cool or changing how I played. Overall: 7.1/10 If you're a longtime Dragon Age fan, is The Veilguard going to be Origins or Inquisition? No. Honestly, it's probably closer to Dragon Age II than either of those games. That doesn't mean I think it's a bad game. I think it's worth playing at least once if you're a Dragon Age fan, especially if you want to see certain stories and characters finally get some resolution. 7.1/10. Beautiful world, some genuinely great story moments and companion arcs, but dragged down by a weak middle act, uneven companions, and progression that loses steam toward the end.

It can be a little demanding on a more mid-tier system, but otherwise it's pretty dang fun! Better combat than the earlier entries in the series, though some story choices still upset me (spoiler free, just judgy!) But otherwise a stellar way to spend a few hours!

I just finished the game, and I really enjoyed it. When it was first released, I passed on it even though I'm a fan of the series, because I didn't like the cartoonish character designs and there were so many negative reviews. Eventually, I decided to give it a try since it seems to be the last game in the series. Surprisingly, it wasn't nearly as bad as people said. Sure, it could have been better! It would have been much nicer if they had focused on developing the depth of the storyline. The game actually touches on many philosophical issues. Like the concept of the body and bodies that matter, cultural and sexual identity, political power struggles, and questions about what it means to be or be seen as a speaker, etc. It would have been much more interesting if they had explored these stories deeply instead of just planting the seeds here and there and doing nothing with them. I didn't expect them to suddenly bring the writing up to the level of Disco Elysium, but I did hope for a serious, debatable story that keeps you thinking about your choices in a deep and dark way. A story that keeps making you regret, reason, and question whether you agree or not. As I mentioned, there are important issues present, but they fail to make an impression because they're only surface-level. It’s just 'choose this or that' and that’s it. Everything turns out fine and everyone is happy, just like a Disney movie. Aside from the storytelling, I really enjoyed it. The cartoonish characters weren't that bad, and I understand the decision to go this route to appeal to a younger audience. The map design is beautiful, the sense of scale in the graphics is impressive, and the stage design was enjoyable. I don't have a specific preference when it comes to combat styles, so that didn't bother me either. it was fun to play. All in all, I really think this game deserves a fair shake. It’s not as bad as the hate makes it out to be. While it might not be an excellent game, it’s a decent Action RPG. Perhaps my positive impression is partly due to my initial low expectations, but I firmly believe the game warrants a score of at least 70.

Боевка не веселая.

Si me dieran a elegir ver 150 eliminaciones del Barça de la champions o jugar a este juego una hora mas, lo siento por el Barça

Ich habe mit der Dragon Age Reihe meine Jugend verbracht. Ich habe jedes Der Teile Rauf und Runter Gesuchtet, auf verschiedenste Plattformen und ich habe jedes einzelne Geliebt. Und The Veilguard ist da keine ausnahme. Ich finde Die Grafik einfach nur schön, die Physik der Haare ist einfach Bombe und ich liebe den Kampfstil sehr. Ja dieses Spiel hat zwar seine Schwächen aber es ist dennoch ein Gutes Spiel. Schade finde ich einfach nur das man die Vergangenen Abenteuer mit verknüpfen kann mit Dragon Age Keep. Ich liebe die Charaktere und auch den Charakter Ersteller. Ich habe Spaß an diesem Spiel und das ist Denke ich mal für Viele der Grund warum man ein spiel Spielt.

Probably weakest narrative of the group but combat is fun, looks good and has a good range of content

apesar das reclamações, achei um jogo muito bom e divertido, embora eu não tenha jogado os outros dragon age, então não tenho parâmetros para comparar. Porém, achei que pecaram nas histórias pessoais de cada companheiro e, principalmente, no romance, para um jogo que prometia ótimos momentos ficou faltando algo.

An enjoyable experience. Having played all the games throughout the series it has been fun putting time into the story. I understand the frustrations of others with how the series has been changing throughout the years. If you don't take it too seriously it is nice to get more story to play.
