Dragon Age: Dreadwolf

New Rumor: No Classes

I hope they ditch loot and make it into a super shitty God of War clone. EA doin that thing EA do:

DA:O rocked, there's no denying that. I mean, fuck, go on my Steam profile, you can probably find a picture of Wynne casting a healing spell in the Darkroads.

I thought that 2 wasn't that bad, at least storywise.

3, I thought rocked. And brought some dragons to a fucking game called "Dragon Age".

This new game? Looks utter dogshit. fml, they're getting rid of classes now?

DA:O was fantastic, along with its expansion. DA2 is one of the biggest disappointments in terms of RPGs I can remember because I had hoped it would be a DA:O 2. Felt like a downgrade in pretty much every way. Comparatively, by itself it's not the worst game, but compared to DA:O.... it's not good.

Third was ok, but it was so much "filler". It was certainly an improvement of the 2nd game, but going full action and no tactics doesn't sound like Dragon Age.

One thing (not going to happen) that could make it interesting is if they went souls like. Action game with no real set classes fits the bill. Open world souls like similar to Elden Ring in the Dragon Age universe could be good. But comparing it to God of War combat doesn't sound like that.

Way back when, BioWare just showing their logo at the start of a trailer had the same effect as a FromSoftware does now. Though that was long ago and they've been dethroned as an RPG studio, both in gameplay and stories by studios like Larian and Owlcat. The name brand "BioWare" isn't really something that gets me excited anymore. At this point I'd be more surprised if the game is good than bad.

Opening trailer "From the studio that gave you Anthem and Mass Effect Andromeda, comes.... hack and slash Dragon Age!"

Dang looks like they went full retarded. Enchantment….?

If we had a real games journalism industry and not a bought and paid for ad agency, the review headlines would simply be Dragon Age: Dreadful

huh. I never even gave DA:inquisition a shot after seeing 2. and Masseffect going to shit. I see its on Gamepass though. maybe I should.
I also never really liked the lore, world or anything. just gross pessimistic shit world. didnt particularly like morrigan, or how she took over the plot.

Same, DA2 was so bad when compared with DA:O that I wrote off Bioware as a EA skinsuit, from that point forward. The only thing I gave them money for after DA:O was SW:TOR, since a bunch of friends were playing it and 3/4 of development was before EA bought them.

I tapped out in DA:I about 30 hours in. Felt too much like an MMO fetch quests and the main storyline wasn't interesting enough to be worth it. Can't recommend unless you really like the genre.

its free, so I think I'll give it a shot. I have no problem trying a game, and ditching it if I'm not into it.
(having to install this EA app shit is lame)

Sadly, wartales only lasted like 8 hours. I just couldn't get into it like bannerlord and others.

Other games I'm either waiting for sales or new PC... city skylines, starfield as noted, pc can't handle. struggled on darktide too. Rogue trader, bg3, going to want on sale/patches.
got lamplighters league sitting there. might give it a shot, but don't expect to love.

Burned out on Moonring a bit. it got to the point I had to take notes to remember puzzle clues, or what to do next. haha.
Got backpack hero and some other short mindless games I was hitting up.

Otherwise was eyeing up another Bannerlord Campaign. but dipping into DA:I here seems interesting first.
previous full plays were sea of stars, and chained echoes.

Sort of want to play Origins again when I saw this

Prob has some dank mods

All of these fucking old games make me want to install and mod them the fuck out - then 10 minutes into playing them, my ADHD kicks in and I log off. Think I might just start putting them all on a big ass NVME drive so I can stop dicking with mod compatibility for an hour+ each time.
