Honestly this is pathetic. This is the reason why companies go back to making trendy slop

I don't care. Get your gay shit out the game, faggot. Or die in a fire. Actually do both of those things.

>>715969582 (OP)

I play vydia for fun, not for "hours of content"

What does that even mean? The game is about taking down evil that wants to corrupt the world, not whatever the fuck you think it means

>>715971420
>about taking down evil that wants to corrupt the world
And the player gets to sit through a score of woke sermons in order to get to the world saving part. Nope.

>>715971420
And I would have no problem if you could play as renegade Rook and tell Taash to shut the fuck up about her imaginary, irrelevant problems because we have a big bad evil to defeat. Unfortunately you can't do that, you have to pretend that you care about her "problems", put the world ending big evil thread on hold and help her fix her gender issues first.

>>715969582 (OP)
this game was garbage even if ignore all of the woke slop in it.

>>715971678
I would. Moralfaggotry and far lefty bullshit don't mix.

>>715969582 (OP)
The old friendly necromancer, the asian elf is cute, the thicc dwarf, the hot indian woman (Despite her fucking cringe one liners), black guy is a good straightman. Taash is full fucking damage to the franchise but they also fuck you over with one other party member. You. The lines that come out of the MC's mouth are fucking disgraceful. He speaks like a reddit comment chain and drags the game down by sounding like the most inept leader imaginable. I don't know what the femMC sounds like or says but the male one talks like a male feminist from 10 years ago.

>>715969582 (OP)

I know it's bait but content isn't inherently good. Gone are the days of having to buy the latest AAA because there wasn't much else to play, if a game isn't fun then more content just makes it even less appealing.

>>715969582 (OP)
Yeah yeah, black death upon your mother and all that jazz.

>>715969582 (OP)
Maybe they should've shown ANY of that content, instead of exclusively THAT questline, in all their promotional material, hmm?

That's today, up to around 2013 AA studios in both the West and Japan were shitting out stuff non-stop. Now we have indies, you know what those are like.

There is a funny bit from character creation where no matter what you pick out of four options... you are trans. Some of them were originally meant to lock it, but devs decided they don't want to do that.

>>715972915
The dev time and resources that went into optional gay shit could've been used to make a better game overall. So I'm thinking fuck faggots

>>715972042
I'm surprised I ended up liking most of the cast, Emmerich's quest was kino with the best level in the game. Draven wasn't just a token nigger but had actual internal conflict and struggles and ended up being a bro, Harding was lowkey cute.
Bellara was the biggest surprise, she starts out cringe and annoying but it turns out it's mostly a facade and she has alot more depth than meets the eye, it's almost like she was written by two different people. Also she's canonically a virgin and I did not expect to see that in a pozzed modern AAA game.

>One of the quests is to help one of your companions have an argument with her mom about gender identity at the dinner table, which becomes a viral meme
>No one fucking buys the game

Honestly, we should see more of this. If a company produces a product, and openly doesn't want you as their audience, you simply shouldn't buy their product. Let them go find their "wider audience." In fact, we should do this for shit like TV shows and movies. Making a movie or TV adaptation of something? If it makes even ONE change from the source material in the name of finding some "wider audience," simply accept that you are not the intended audience and do not watch it. If they openly boast of these changes, well then they've made it easy for you!

I'm glad people are finally finding some self-respect, and I hope to see more and more of it in the future.

>>715972915
It was extremely lazily implemented, if you see devs describing the romance options as "playersexual" it means they couldn't be bothered polishing and writing something good. Romance between a man and a woman, a woman and a woman, and a man and a man should play differently and have their own dedicated romanceable characters. "Playersexual" leaves no one satisfied, neither the straights, the gays nor the lesbians.

>>715970148
Wow! Great!

Include faggotry and we will ignore your game and watch your studio crumble. Simple as

the story can make or break any game. this faggot is connected to the progression of the story & you can't choose to avoid or kill him. this makes the game both woke & unplayable.
now here's another game that's woke as sin. full of gays & other base perversions. baldur's gate 3. but guess what, you can choose to ignore or kill any of these degenerates that come along. you craft your own story. that's good game design.

Taash being the worst-written companion since Sera is just one reason not to play the game. Though I was surprised how much I liked Emmrich's story.

Bioware were learning from the best, I see.

>>715976524
Probably never. Considering that they've whiffed three major releases in a row, Mass Effect 5 will probably be their gayest and lamest offering yet. The only thing holding BioWare together at this point is the fact that the remastered ME trilogy actually outsold EA's expectations enough that they still think there's money in the brand.

game thats part of a downhill series goes even further downhill

>why doesnt it sell

gee anon yo tell me

Nah, I pirated the game, played for around 6 hours and I had to force myself to endure so much. It's just bland and dull. The writing feels so fucking sedated. Environment visuals are nice, but that's about it and even then Inquisition looked better.

>>715976289
Summed it up perfectly. I would add that this is the quintessential "woke" game, "wokeness" is not just changing the skin color of elves it's sanitizing, sanding of the edge and removing anything that could potentially offend someone or remind them that bad things can exist and happen. On the gameplay front the dumbing down is almost always a result of wanting to make the game more "accessible". Veilguard should be a case study and a cautionary tale about what happens when you let toxic positivity and political activism take over.

>>715973987
Go play Necromancer's Tale, anon, you might enjoy it.

>>715975339
Videogame "consultants" like Beet Swaby staked their business model on showing companies how to avoid online backlash and controversy in their games but instead were buried by the exact thing they were hired to avoid.

I find that hilariously ironic. Karma is a bitch indeed.

>>715974869
>this dialogue
There is no way that the writers thought it should be taken seriously, right? But I'm assuming it's some pink/blue-haired faggot that wrote it... meaning they did earnestly write this dialogue. They REALLY thought the player WOULDN'T laugh at this clown show?

>>715978326
Apparently the original trilogy's characters were designed with larger-than-life proportions to make them more visually impactful, while Andromeda's character were designed to be much close to regular people - which made them look oddly stumpy compared to Shepard and Co.

>>715978884
>>715978326
Veilguard did this shit too, apparently heroic proportions are "problematic"

>>715977481
I do like how it prompted the BioWare heads to do everything they could to make Anthem "unmemeable", only for the game to end up completely forgettable instead.

I noticed that in all the let's plays and trailers and I hate it with every fiber of my being. It's got to be some subliminal new age gay political shit. Like how nowadays even if they do give them normal proportions they will give all the women manjaws.

Beat thing about Taash is that if you ignore her like any sane person would, you will receive a better ending.
Its "bad ending" bit it's a lot better than the good ending that only receive if you suck cock of all party member and do their quests

Troonguard is quite literally the troon among games: it pretends to be something it isn't, a DragonAge game, and demands you humour its existence as it aggressively tries to retcon your memory and established lore, to normalize its rabid turbofaggotry.

>>715981398

That's exactly what it is.

Leftwing art is all about either rejecting reality entirely (alegria) or only depicting what it "should be", whilst traditional art is about simply reflecting life as we see it and then amplifying its most relevant aspects.

Eventually you'll realize that marketing isn't trying to sell you shit games, but that shit games sell you marketing, i.e.: pad traffic and engagement -- they are little more than onboarding schemes to consultation rackets, e-grifting parasocialites and digitial daycare-botfarms.
The industry has been captured by PR gremlins. These PR gremlins cultivate an unsustainable economy of lies: they sell problems, rent out solutions (marginally smaller problems) and deceive everyone -- shareholders, developers, customers and players. They don't care about the quality or reception of the product, they don't care about what you believe, love or hate and they don't care to convince you of anything. The more controversy, the better for them.

Their final goal however is to distract and placate you, while high finance (read: their owners, banksters) turns your passions and lifetime into vacuous commodities.

>be PR gremlins
>gaslight publisher into whipping developers into frenzy to create super-slop
>gobble up the majority of the "development" budget, recommend hiring nepotists
>proliferate more slop to e-grifting parasocialites to fan the flames; hype a product you know will fail miserably, gaslight customers and shareholders with predatory marketing
>reinvest a fraction of your hyper-bloated budget and buy copies through subsidaries and at a discount to gaslight everyone some more, after padding stats shortterm refund to ruin them longterm
>simultaneousely shill for and against the product to maximize controversy and thus traffic, engagement and demand of your service and that of your buisness partners, such as consultation rackets
>eventually come out of it being the sole profiteer, blaming everyone else

In other words: if you're a shareholder of a publisher or developer studio instead of an investor to a marketing agency, then you are a barely functional lobotomite.

No, I didn't buy it because Bioware has always been a shit company and the fact that people gave them money for things like KoToR, with its shit graphics, presentation and basic bitch philosophy lesson rolled into one of the worst CRPG I have ever seen was just laughable. Then Jade Empire was even worse, but people still bought it because "It's by those guys that made those Star Wars games." Dragon Age was "We couldn't get D&D license, so we made our own thing, but worse in every facet". It was the game Xbox users had to get if they wanted an RPG. Why settle for mediocre? This company should have been dissolved a LONG time ago.

The crazy part is I'm an admitted RPG casual. I'm L.I.T T E.R A.L.L.Y. part of the coveted expanded casual market they were going for by making the game more action oriented.

You're describing Inquisiton, which actually did sell because the base gameplay and storyline was serviceable even if the characters could get really obnoxious.

Veilguard had none of that. The gameplay was a complete departure from Dragon Age (No controlling party members, etc), they retconned almost all pre-established lore concerning the elven gods and the darkspawn, even retconning the dreadwolf lore from just the previous entry in the series.

It was just bad.

Thats all it takes to ruin a game, especially when you have an offensively ugly character like Taash. Regardless, the poor writing most likely is not just with this one character and is seen throughout the rest of the game.

They somehow managed to not cock up the ME remaster against all odds.

Nice one anon. But I played the game. Combat is fine, even fun sometimes, but everything else is shit. it's like Andromeda.

The Trick ending is much better. Solas getting thrown by the least subtle switcheroo in the history of mankind is hilarious.

It's what happens when you hand off your highly-profitable IP to a D-list team of nobodies with no prior experience. At least they eventually fixed most of the bugs - unlike Anthem, where any attempted fix invariably broke something else, and the devs admitted the only way to solve the issue would be to rebuild the game from scratch, Realm Reborn-style.

>This is the reason why companies go back to making trendy slop
Considering the democrats lost, wouldn't that make anti-trannyism the trendy thing to do?

You're not exactly trendy if your trend causes more than half a country to vote to remove you.
It seems like the trendy thing to do would be to make a game where you take Taash to a therapist.

>>715969582 (OP)
Fuck your gay game and fuck you

For starters, any action that causes your peer group to bully the fuck out of you isn't "trendy". Ideological/religious capture works.

>some months later "veilguard was not that good, read about bioware internal problems here:"

>the last patch was in january 2025
Oh my god this game flopped so hard they fired the writers and told the devs to stop patching it 4 months in. Bioware is just a fucking shell of itself.

>>715996210
I was mostly surprised by how bug-free it was for me. The only time I had to reload was in one Venatori quest in Tevinter where the crystal barriers didn't trigger properly.

>>715969582 (OP)
Character and creature design is ugly (particularly the clownish darkspawn)
Combat seems boring
Dialogue feels forced and out of place
From what I understand, the story is not satisfying either
Why should we be excited for this game?
I guess that some of the environments look nice, but that's way too little

>>715977782
I can see why. Mom is obviously trying to come to terms with what her kid is telling her (in a verbal ambush), with the Qun clearly having some concept of cross gendered individuals in a heavily gendered society, and the kid is just standoffish and trying to pick a fight. Whole scene goes from dinner is served straight to "Respect my pronouns! REEEEEEEE"

The most insane part is they keep pushing these ugly ass character designs that NOBODY likes. Not even them. Like srsly their own kind might even like these ugly ass designs even less that regular people. Because everybody knows they ALL wish they were born as a qt anime girl. And they all have the hidden folders and anime pillows to prove it. Their entire existence is built on lies that even they don't want but still try to force on everybody else. It's ALL fake virtue signaling to a market that literally does not exist and never has.

>>715999272
I played Andromeda when it wasn't that buggy. Had the same experience as Veilguard: Good combat, bad everything else.

>>715998945
It was pretty transparent the way major outlets posted glowing early reviews, only to backtrack and criticize the game once the money was paid.

I played it (I pirated it) and it just bored the life out of me, and yes the shitty dialogue also killed my motivation to go on. I liked DA:I, and I know a lot of /v/ doesn't like it but I did, I liked the tactical combat and didn't think the writing was too bad so was willing to look past all the stuff I personally didn't like but I didn't feel anything positive towards Veilgaurd at all. I liked DA2 as well for reference, so I was their target audience.

>>715969582 (OP)
nice bait

>>715999217
Anon, that shit was on sale for 35% off a month after its release, and free on PSN four months later. No way EA was going to sign checks for post-launch support.

>>715969582 (OP)
The writing is so bad it can't even follow the lore, and retroactively introduces stuff that ruins the old game's stories.

>>715969582 (OP)
I'm sorry, I was told I'm not the target audience so I let the target audience enyoj it.

>>715969582 (OP)
It's even funnier than that. DA Inquisition retconned Qun to be a gay trans degenerate paradise of debauchary. As a result, Taash makes no sense as a character. She complains that the hyper-liberal hyper-progressive trans paradise on the continent is too "conservative" for her.

Still not playing anything with your wokies tokens, nevermind buying it.
Cry into your rope

>>716006393
Wasn't all that said by a secret agent whose whole job is to lie to disaffected locals and dupe them into serving qunari interests before being stripped of all individual identity when the conquest comes? Hence why he's expected to dump his rubes into a meatgrinder to save actual qunari assets, and gets excommunicated if he doesn't.

>>716005732
The only fun way to play Veilguard is Grey Warden and Royal Guard everything like a DMC game.

>>715969582 (OP)
You didn't even play this slop. Traash is just the lowest point in 70 hours of shit.

No she's not, what the fuck, she's next on my list of people from this game I want to kill after the tranny. Annoying ass character

Erika Ishi also voices femrook and is the nonbinary lead for Ghost of Yotei too. I guess whoevers running the show on GOY really loves veilguard.

>70 hours of shit
no, thanks

I'm not sure if Seriously is a word I'd use with this game, but yes.

>>715996545
>>715996929
The objective is to try to come up with a convincing, or at least confusing enough story for normies and investors, so they can protect their people long enough to move them to new projects. You'll see them try obvious bullshit angles. You'll see the same for AC shadows.

>>715998198
The fact that I can't tell them apart immedely, and that they spent a combined hundered million plus on design , modeling, visuals, vfx, environmental art, lighting, and animation and shit is disturbing.

i didn't buy it because it looked like generic shit at best

>>716006863
They really can't appreciate unless there's a carbon copy character of themselves and another that lives up to their hilariously out of touch concept of an ideal partner, can they? It's a fantasy game, and supposedly it's obvious there's a existential threat. How does this help anyone at all?

Why the need to announce yourself as 'trans', instead of the gender/sex you see yourself as? If someone simply wanted to be a woman and weren't obnoxious about it, I wouldn't give a fuck what they wanted to be called. Just commit to the fucking bit, trans just makes it sound like you're testing the waters.

>>716002090
That's why they're pushing the subscription models so much. So they can take your sub money and claim they loved this shit.

>>716007765
I hate Miranda too much to think she's hot, so I didn't really notice.

>>716008213
Because the agenda is more important than anything else. In a world of magic, trannies as we know them and their bullshit would not exist. If someone wants to be a woman they would just use magic. No need for cross dressing or any language bullshit, of trying to redefine basic science. Just abracadabra and bam man to woman in both form and function.

>>716008034
The graphical arms race is such a joke. People spend a king's ransom on bleeding edge technology, but the actual artists can't do anything good with it, so all it amounts to is ugly characters in 4k.

So I want to know who's the one sucking EA's dick for BioWare still be in business? The Dead Space remake actually made money and they canned it
Not only that EA killed franchises for way less

>>715977197
og aloy looked bad but not this bad. must be some disingenuous shot from the ps3 version. modded she looks better than remastered and eve from stellar blade. these face mesh edits arent available in remaster so original is the only playable version.

>>716008470
...and even if the artists COULD do something good, you have the Activision Blizard diversity matrix afraid of fully clothed ass shots from decades ago, who insist that the maximum amount of sex appeal from hero characters be based on 40 year olds at the walmart, like you see in Outlaws.

DUDE CULTURE WAR LOL

>>716008513
The fact that modders seem to be able to fix shit so quickly while the entire fucking team of paid professionals can't tells me it's not an accident or limitation of skill or tech.

No idea. Some people have posited that EA values the brand name too much, or that they're too cheap to take the risk of buying a new RPG developer, but BioWare's spent the last decade violently devaluing itself, and the success of other CRPGs proves it's not a matter of unfavorable market conditions - other companies are making successful games in the same genre. Hell, EA took Battlefield away from DICE for the 2042 debacle and gave it to Respawn, but they still let BioWare waste their money. Even the Mass Effect remaster's success proving there's still value in the brand can't explain this level of lenience.
