It's amazing how much better third person action gameplay looks when the person playing knows the controller has a right analog stick. IGN's video actively made the game look bad.
It is bad the animations look like AA jank and some of the features belong in the early 2000's there is no damn excuse for either with thier time and budget
It's smart to say that? They know everybody hated it. The dumbest thing they could do is say we liked the trailer and it represents the game well. If they want it to sell well, they have to say they didn't like it.
@@bryandedon7459nah tbf the marketing team has fucked up big time as always. I'm still on the fence for that game but if the rest of what Bioware has shown was like that 1st trailer, yeah it would have been in my ignore list lol
Open worlds were cool because they let you do something we hadn't been able to at the time: explore a world. But then theY focused on the open part over the world part. And as usual, gaming chased a trend instead of understanding why it was trending in the first place. They're ALL so creatively bankrupt it's just disheartening.
from what I've heard from previews, it seems like this game has very strong direction. From side quests to main quests, everything is relevant either to the world, characters, or story. I think that's what often goes to the wayside in these huge productions. I'm thrilled to hear the feedback from the previews aren't doom and gloom. Dragon age fans deserve a big win!!
Maybe it's judging a book by it's hideous cover. Maybe the game's 1/3 is heavily loaded with all the features and the rest is rushed garbage. Maybe they should fire the UI designer.
@@jesustyronechrist2330 BG3 on launch's Act 3 runs terribly, lacks content (that got added after several updates) and rushed(rip Wyll). Maybe wait for released review?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion from watching all of the videos and reading all of the articles. I can’t say I have much hope for the game to me. This feels nothing looks nothing and doesn’t have any of the qualities that I remember from dragon age origins. I know this is a bit of a hot, take but I do think that’s the only legitimately great DA game I don’t think inquisition is bad but Underwhelming and I think it’s relatively agreed-upon that 2 is kind of bad I’m not telling you that you’re wrong by the way like I said you’re entitled to judge the game how you see it and want to but as somebody who has loved a vast majority of BioWares catalog, especially the pre-2010 era but I think I also need to be honest with myself that that developer is very very long gone and has been for a very long time. I’ll obviously try the game even though I know deep down, I’m not going to enjoy it most likely but I also think it’s only right for me to play. What’s probably going to be their last game realistically given I have played so many of their games throughout my life, but like I said, I hope I’m wrong but I unfortunately don’t think I will be
The person who was in charge of that first trailer should be fired immediately. Completely ruined the hype for a lot of people. But everything I have seen since then and heard since then was nothing but positive. Seriously Bioware deserves a win. I really want that next Mass Effect Game to happen so Dragon Age 4 better be a Banger.
People claim the industry has a toxic positivity problem, well to the same degree it has a toxic negativity problem. Most people on youtube tend to want to hate something just for the sake of hating, people love to dwell on the negative. The game looks interesting, but it can truly only be judged when it is released.
I'm honestly so glad that they chose a more focused approach to mission design and exploration. I hated, HATED the open areas in Inquisition, completely soured the experience for me. I still have my reservations about the game, but this video is a great step in the right direction imo, game seems to be taking a lot from previous DA titles and Mass Effect as well, and that's always good to see.
Honestly for me there so few open worlds i look forward to anymore Kingdom come 2 and GTA6 are the onmy ones i care about Because KCD1 and RDR2 blew me away with their open worlds with how alive they are. More games need to be linear there many benefits.
This i can agree on. I'll be honest, the art style is appealing yes. But somehow it just gives me such poopoo doodoo woke vibes. It looks soooooooooo forced inclusivity. I'll reserve full judgement until it drops.
@@twistedsecret2554tbf, when that IGN preview of Star wars on console was shown and everyone who preview it, including Luke said it wad bad. Sometimes companies wants to show the good thing to reviewers and hide all the $h!t. Remember Cyberpunk 2077 lol
@@pandabers anyone who played the first 4 not 2 hours of Outlaws would know it was shit unless there is just zero standards .. oh wait there isn't lol.
@@pandabers So you are saying that only those 2 hours of the game are good and the rest is shit? What kind of logic is that. Should we buy a game worth 70 for those 2 hours of fun and 30 hours of meh. In either case what I'm pointing out is that you can't really trust people who get invited to these exclusive events because they are essentially being bribed with special treatment. If this was a fair situation, they would have invited content creators who are very negative about the game and it shouldn't matter if they are big or small creators. I mean we recently had that ubisoft debacle where they gave creators and all expenses paid trip to Disneyland. You seriously expect an unbiased review from these guys?
People should always be honest and are entitled to their own opinions. But he is also saying that the artstyle looks great so how good is his opinion really?
You know where the problem is ? He litterly complains about ten's of things, kinda skips other critics that are obvious and says before and he's is the only one impressed by now from other reviewers who are Not convinced, I loved Luke's real and some critics I had on game, now he's is on BS spread since star wars.
@Odder-Being Why do you need someone's opinions on that though? I'd suggest that you don't look to youtubers for validation on topics you already have a firm stance on. All we should be looking for from these people are the facts about the game. Unless a content creator is specially into political and social commentary as their main thing then I at least don't care much about what they are into.
Yup. Right on the money. And it’s a VIDEO game. At least he’s showing you his opinion and gameplay so that YOU can decide if you want it or not. People are insane man
Access media. He likes the game so that bioware and ea keep sending him swag and he can feel like he's part of a special group. Same thing in legacy media.
I definitely disagree with his opinion from what I’ve seen. I obviously have not played it yet. I will when it releases, but everyone is entitled to their opinion do I think that sometimes someone can be objectively wrong obviously but none of us have played the game so we can only judge on what we have seen now do I think what we have seen looks good no not at all but he is entitled to think how he wants to think whether I agree with it or not doesn’t matter it’s an opinion after all
*sighs* if you want this game to fail, nothing will change your mind. If you want this game to be good, this is encouraging. Objectively. This is one of my favorite franchises. Love Origins to pieces. Inquisition is still worth replays here and there to me. I’m a big lore nerd and the development of some things in Inquisition was CRAZY good as far as I’m concerned. All that said, this game being in development hell for 10 years scared me. The first trailer almost made me bury it. I’ve felt the devs almost going double time trying to get the perception changed based on that initial bad taste for a lot of us. As far as I’m concerned, everything has been done well enough to warrant being optimistic again. If you want to hate this game and throw everything BioWare in a dumpster fire, that’s fine, do you. If you’re on the fence… give it a chance. I want it to be good and I’ll buy it on release, I’m on that side. But if BioWare somehow releases a worthy addition to my favorite franchise, I’m gonna be soooo much more than pleasantly surprised.
I agree with everything you said except for the buy on release part. I would encourage everyone to wait for reviews from multiple sources before buying.
@@twistedsecret2554yeah hopefully I was clear that’s just my position, I don’t play a ton of games so I don’t mind a $60-70 price tag especially when I’m emotionally invested. People SHOULD play the wait and see approach if they’re on the fence. Especially with BioWare’s most recent releases I cannot wholesale tell anyone ITS FINE ITS GONNA BE GREAT, WE ARE SO BACK.
@@hisaonakai9489i didn't but i'm glad that DLC did justice to that story because the ending was very underwhelming, the DLC managed to salvaged some of the bad stuff
He's hitting all the same talking points. You think EVERY RU-vidr from this event is mentioning God of War by fluke? They're advertisers, advertising a game to you, masked as a preview. He was flown out to San Francisco for a day, I'm sure he was "impressed". 😂
These comments are a perfect reminder of why the internet is a miserable place. Luke can't do anything at this point without getting abused in these comments.
Well it's becoming a bit warranted. Dude was glowing every time he spoke about star wars outlaws and while I haven't played it personally I can't imagine everyone is just hating it just to hate it.
@@BrilliantK I keep seeing comments going against abuse in the comments. I keep seeing people talk about others saying "you arent allowed to like this game!". I see none of the comments they pretend to respond to. I see zero comments saying he isnt allowed to like the game. I see zero abusing him. I only see fake responses.
I guess this is the part where people accuse you of being a corporate shill because you’re not shitting on a game they haven’t played that they’ve decided is irredeemably terrible lmao
He just came back from a shilling event and is mirroring what Skill Up said, hitting similar talking points. Everyone who was invited to this event will say similar glowing things "impressed" they are. 😂
For people that don't understand cooperate politics, if the devs are willing to admit to people they know will talk that they were upset about the trailer then whats going on behind closed doors is the equivalent of a blood bath.
The gaming community is so incredibly negative these days if you go based off user reviews or comment sections you would think every game thats comes out is complete garbage
Most AAA games ARE bad though. The posistivity is out in full force when you see smaller studios or indies. Becauze theyre usually ACTUALLY good games.
@@johnathanera5863 They aren't bad. They just aren't 60$ worth games. Even Outlaws is a decent game. It's just that you expect more of Ubisoft. If it was a AA release people would be eating it up as a really good game coz you really focus on the positives when you see games at that level and don't pay as much attention to the weaknesses.
I don't think that's a bad thing. People should be more skeptical when it comes to these AAA games. God knows we've been burned enough times in the past. Glad to see people are side-eyeing these games and the reviewers who cover them, rather than just believing everything at face value.
@@mugen3603 Those are tourists who weren't around 10 years ago when every gamer was some drone of a triple a publisher. that led us to this state. because they kept buying slop telling themselves it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. we truly need more skepticism. Every time they burn us all post: last time I preordered. but every time they buy a few good reviews a month before release everyone is preordering like crazy. I just talked to a guy on X who bought the game 3 times because his favorite reviewer gave a positive opinion in it. this is what fucked up the gaming industry. people buying dreams and hopes and we all know what will happen in the end. Bioware isn't the old one. the game will come out and will be shortly after forgotten. look at it. it looks like medieval fortnite. the only thing carring this game is a game that came out decades ago DA1. everything that came out after that went worse and worse. now people expect this game to rival the first one but where are the fucking talents? look at the team. all purple haired women 🤣
yours is one of the reviews I was most cautious to hear of, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it and are optimistic about it. Hope you and your wife enjoy it!
I think Nikki ( if that is her name and that's how you write it ) will be in heaven after listening to this video from Luke where he praises this game a lot.
@@DogBall-qq9nl At least he ain't a loser basement dweller unhappy with his life that gotta hate on everything because his life suck. Hope it'll get better for you buddy
The people in this comment section are so goofy. If he was voicing a negative sentiment, they'd be saying "I knew it, mad facts", but because he is voicing an opinion that differs to theirs, they assume he must be sell-out. Some of you need to get a grip. You'll reject any positive preview of it as being bogus because you think your opinion is fact.
Ask him how much bioware paid him 😂 Or he is doing this for pleasing these woke companies to get early access. Luke has changed. Star wars Outlaw was a trash game and we know his opinion was
Saying if it were the other way doesn't make sense since he simply wouldn't everyone who got invited to play the game are giving the same its not bad its actualy good review there isn't a single instance were a person was invited to play and said it doesn't look good for literally any game this what if theory doesn't work
@@averagelok1959 Why doesn't that make sense? Luke has given negative feedback plenty of times. His sceptical nature and honesty is sort of what he is known for. Also, these are previews, not reviews, and WolfheartFPS gave some pretty mixed feedback. Only other one I have watched is SkillUp (Austen) and he has similar feelings to Luke, and I think MrMatty enjoyed what he played. Plenty of people here in this comment section are the sort to dismiss any positive reaction as not being genuine because they've already made up their mind over whether the game will be good or not.
@@averagelok1959 I am sorry to hear that. Which bit frightened you, exactly? Me stating that Luke has given negative feedback before? That other creators have given mixed feedback? Or the fact that some people will dismiss any positive preview as bogus?
People are so jaded towards big gaming companies (with reason btw) that any good news is seen with suspicion. That's how negative these predatory scammy AAA games recently made us
Yeah i would agree on that too, now any good will from any of those companies will be met with suspicion by ppl and tbf it's well deserved, it's unfortunate that we are at that point but that's the result of abusing the trust of ppl for profit
@@lukeluke333lukeluke There's been plenty of youtubers usually the ones who scream woke all day faux outraged at it. People concerned it's absolutely fair though.
What a silly comment. Nobody told you you must hate it, just that it looked bad for a number of reasons. None of those reasons were addressed in this video, and so the people skeptical based on those reasons are still skeptical. Why strawman arguments and then proclaim yourself some martyr of virtue?
same, in one day its gone from nope, not planning on buying it to I probably will buy it when it releases, but still cautious enough to wait for it to release at the moment
VERY toxic. Don't worry, me and my fellow Modern Audience members will buy 5 copies each, to insure we don't get Concord part 2. We must stick together! ✊🏾🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇺🇦🇯🇴
@@yous2244 per the video, sounds like it was EA’s fault. No surprise, they’ve always sucked But there’s plenty of new info now, if people gonna stay mad that’s on them
Did you see the awful trailer of course people would make up they minds also still hate the art style still going to get it though depending on the review score
I never played a Dragon Age game, but I'm actually excited for this upcoming entry. I played the Mass Effect trilogy a few years ago, though. Magnificent!
Devs have confirmed you can. If you look at some of the combat trailers, like the first Warrior gameplay, they have the damage numbers turned off on that one.
For now I remain cautiously optimistic. As for Bellara, if she's the same as in the audio story episode that released today, then I personally think I'll like her just fine. Hope she doesn't drag me into further crab battles though. 👀
Just wanna say, thank you Luke for what you do, whether you like, dislike, play games early or not. I know that whatever happens, even if you can't say anything bad about a game due to embargos, you always speak your mind and are honest, getting info and gameplay out there on upcoming games. Thanks alot.
Curious though Luke since you said yourself that you weren't really into the franchise before, but your wife was. What's her impressions or take on it? As a Dragon Age vet, I'm kind of mixed on a lot of the changes, it feels like we're going thru the same changes that happened from Origins to DA2 all over again.
Also perhaps this is as intended, meaning this game was meant to be a soft reboot, picking up from Inquisition but with the intention of bringing in brand new players that previously could not get into the DA series...
@@HDGaminTutorials I'm with you on the redesigns, I wish they had just picked up from Inquisition and built on that for this new era of gaming. Given how most of the previews have been pretty positive, I'm trying to let it slide! Totally understand if you can't, I was upset about it for a while, but Bioware improving from Andromeda is very important while experiencing the world a lot of us love in Dragon Age
In a recent stream which had happened after the preview event she said that it's the game she was looking most forward to. I had already assumed that the impressions must have been nice and all the preveiws from different people today seem to follow the same trend.
I keep seeing comments saying exactly this but i don't see the other comments saying he got paid ... He did get "acces" so acces journalism you can call it but ...
Is it me or it’s always not “the team’s fault” when things go badly? There are always two faces to the coin. Management has a big part in the mess, but it can’t always be only their fault.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!!! I can't wait to try it when it comes out. I've been hoping for DA to go in the direction of ME in some senses for a while now, and this is exactly the type of experience I was imagining.
Played the game for 7 hours and liked it? Access journalism, sold out. Has never played the series before, has no interest in RPGs like DA and didnt even play BG3. Is unbelievably bad at combat in most games he plays and makes every combat system look trash? Valid opinion, game is trash let me go and play some Italian soulslike slop he is promoting
@@Beyondqqq It's so sad because I used to love watching him. The past 2 years or so of his channel have been so depressing, so much so that I blocked his account from showing up in my feed. It's literally just a cesspool of hate and politics. Shitting on anything and everything he possibly can. Completely changed from what I used to love about him.
I’m actually shocked that you don’t need the EA launcher on Steam. They’re really trying to maximize sales for this game, which leads me to believe that they think it can sell really well. That and they’re selling it for $60 instead of $70. The gameplay is like a hybrid of Mass Effect and DA2, which I think is great. I’m thinking an 8-8.5/10 here, so not bad at all. I gave Inquisition a 7 because the combat is terrible, the open world activities are some of the worst in any game and the amount of “open world grind features” made the entire thing a boring chore. The characters, writing, voice acting and landscapes are solid, though. Lastly, I’m hoping that a mod maker will change some of the models in this game (Darkspawn, anyone?). Long live PC.
I think its the opposite. Do you know what kind of hopelessness a corp like EA needs to face to take so many measures to sell a game. These are the very same people who have been known for being the most anti consumer company in the US and thats saying something. They must really be sweating and shitting themselves regarding this game if they are forced to use pro consumer tactics like this. I still don't think it's gonna do much as there is a very bad taste in people's mouth from their previous projects. And also the current cultural climate is gonna rip this to shreds, I mean they dug their graves with the first trailer.
@@twistedsecret2554 I can certainly see how people can view it that way and I considered it before posting. I still believe they’re trying to gain good favor because they desperately need it.
@@artursobkow2680 don't you think it's logical bc of this crazy comment section? He has never been biased, why would he and ALL the other creators be? 🤣🤣
I’ve invested multiple 100s of hours into the DA franchise. Every game had multiple play through using different character choices, with different classes, on different difficulties. Unlocking every trophy on PS4 and achievements on 360. Even the DLC and yes, DA2… If BioWare can deliver a great story with engaging characters, and good (doesn’t have to be amazing) gameplay, and can deliver the game in a playable state, I’ll probably buy this AFTER launch…
Man, 7 hours sounds like a real deep dive! It's cool to see how much detail BioWare puts into their worlds. Can't wait to see how the choices really impact the story. Plus, that character creator looks like it could be super fun! 🎮✨
@@elijahwallace5300You mean like how most early reviews go? Shut up. You wouldn’t eaten this video up if he was negative. You just have a narrative that you want to desperately stick to. You don’t care about the actual quality of the game. You just want it to fail because you’ve already decided it’s bad. Even the most skeptical and harsh people like Skill-Up are giving good impressions. You guys lap up what eve they say when it fits your narrative. Now that it doesn’t? Suddenly they’re shills and not speaking their honest thoughts. Funny how their “honest thoughts” only ever align with what you want to hear.
in dragon age you always were able to stop the battle and to give direct commands to companions. That was a good thing, cause you could basically have all the classes in your team under your control.
Inquisitions "open" maps were pretty inconsistent. Some areas kooked good, and were fun to run. Some were just absolute pointless snd there for bloat. For story length, DAI is 40-50 if you just do the story snd enough side stuff to get the power you need. So i expect this to be similar tbh
The thing I like the most is that I'm seeing a lot of details they tossed into the games during the past, with a care to refine those same aspects in the most functional and fun way possible. Honestly I didn't care about this because of the record since Andromeda, but Halloween seems kinda interesting this time around. Hopefully, BioWare is back
I'm so glad they had you play. and that you made this video. Most vids about Veilguard seem to be from people who are already committed to loving it just because it's Dragon Age, and I've been taken aback by certain people's poor treatment of skeptics (not cynics!) like me when we express doubts or even questions. Hearing details on the game from someone like you is WAY more comforting than just hearing more uncritical positivity from the same fans over and over. Thank you! I'm less fearful now.
I am so excited to play, and I love that our decisions will matter, and I can't wait to have my inquisitor in the game and hopefully get some closure with Solas. The game looks so good. I am glad many people who have played enjoyed it and think it is good and are excited to play more on release. I waited 10 years for this and am so excited. I will be playing on PC.
As a Dragon Age fan I really, really hope what you're saying is true because as of now we were only shown the opposite of what you're talking about. The game might be amazing but they really failed at making it look that way in the trailers
I dunno what trailers you have watched.. If you only saw the first trailer then it makes sense. But the rest of the gameplay reveals have been relatively positive imo. Of course they just can't reveal everything. I understand why people have their concerns. But to completely write it off like a lot of people are doing I think is completely wrong especially when they have been much more transparent than other AAA devs these days.
@@d4nkdesu you're right, I probably should have said that I didn't like what they showed so far. There's a lot of things that don't appeal to me personally
@@bastiwen can I ask you a real question? What's your opinion on the qunari I REALLY hate the design they look like fanfic demons with horns and a human face
@@jo_yb0y913 I don't like it, I already wasn't a fan of the design in Inquisition but it's worse now imo. DA2 had a great design they just needed to expand on it.

@artursobkow2680 I'm not a troll, This will be the first time i have played a game from this franchise, die hard fans might have their indifferences but i know a great game when i see one and can't wait 😉
@@artursobkow2680 as an old DA fan i think people really overreacting about this game looks. It's not great, but it's just fine. All DA games had bad graphics and this one isn't the worst offender ( *cough* DA2. I like this game but it looks like crap)
This comment section is exhausting. The „gaming community” is so consumed with hate and picking sides in the so-called American „culture wars” that it became basically impossible to express an honest opinion about any given game. It's like trying to explain nuance and reason to kindergarten kids. Luke must be really disappointed and tired of this shit. I actually feel bad for him and for all the other serious content creators that have to handle these fucked-up meaningless conversations all the time.
For people confused about why you only control 1 character now: the director of DA 1-3 games Mark Darrah explains on his RU-vid channel that less than 1% of players ever used the tactical camera in DA:O after tutorials - it was only added to DA:I to avoid negative press. I have ~200 hours in DA:I and I could count on one hand the times I've controlled the rest of my party outside of selecting a few spells. The party tactics and command system was incredible.
If it's a good change or not (personally, I think it isn't) we'll see until the game comes out I think. However, about what Darrah said: You only control 1 character because this game was intended as a live service game at first, it has nothing to do with "people don't use the tactical camera" (because it doesn't even make sense, one thing has nothing to do with the other), they rebooted this game so many times that it's so obvious they didn't have time to develop the capacity to change characters (or they simply didn't want to) nor to develop the party members themselves, as so far they seem to work only as extra abilities for the player. And before you say "but Mark Darrah said..." This is the same man that left Bioware and started trashing them, and once he was rehired he started licking their boots again. He has no credibility in my book.
That's subjective because the tactical camera and switching of characters I used constantly in my DA:I playthrough. I didn't use it in DA:O because it's not on the console version
This is also why games like Starfield will never get their Cyberpunk moment. Everyone will hate something without reason if their minds stuck to it. Doesn't matter how much you try to fix, or make it better. Only way to beat them is through a different medium to attract a different audience to drown out the mindless crowd like Cyberpunk making an anime. Edgelords will cry that their fantasy game doesn't look like dark fantasy (not ever game is trying to imitate Dark Souls).
The classic ..."I played this game and it's awesome" response early access users get. How about you wait until it comes out instead of listening to ONE person's take and believing it?
This game is just like any other game before it - people who want to hate it will hate it, and people who want to like it will like it. I've never played a game that I loved 100% as there are always design choices and play styles that aren't for everyone, but I don't let those little things take away from my overall enjoyment of a game. I loved the original Mass Effect trilogy and I also really enjoyed Andromeda precisely BECAUSE it was different; I didn't want the same game again. Similarly, I loved the other Dragon Age games and I anticipate enjoying Veilguard BECAUSE of its changes. Sure, there are going to be issues and things that some people don't like, but that's the same for any game. It's been 10 years since the last Dragon Age game, so yeah, I'm hoping for something different and fresh.
I really only started watching your content about 3-4 months ago. But you quickly became one of the 1st people I click on for this stuff. You follow all the games i'm interested in and I think you really break it down thoughtfully.
Totally agree there. Half of a game's buyers just look at a trailer and nothing else, and after that terrible first look, a lot of people are gonna be turned off.
Although this is positive, a few reminders: 1. Highly curated playthrough. You only play the parts they want you to see. 2. Luke did the same for Star Wars : Outlaws. He was very positive. Then in his actual review his opinion changed since he saw all the other bits. 3. Curated choice and consequences is no guarantee. Always be suspicious if the effect of the choice is almost immediate, since that is not necessarily a branching story even if the effect is flashy. 4. Anything where a point is what someone said rather than directly seen in game, is suspect.
I am actually kind of worried why EA would try to be pro consumer unless the game is like 18 hours long. Why won't they even give a vague range of playtime? That is so odd in combination with EA reducing price.
@@TheOnceandFutureJake what does the games aesthetics have to do with the length of the video and it's time of release? Nothing of what is considered aesthetics is new or exclusively seen in this video.
The first trailer and name change was a big mistake. I also still don't like the character designs and art style, but I can get past that if the game has good writing, characters and story. The previews have eased some concerns and the game does sound like it could be good. Which I'm hoping its the case. I love the series and want this game to be better then my expectations.
Don't know if I'd say Bioware had a 'choice' when it came to the Frostbite engine. I remember articles about EA's higher ups 'strongly encouraging' their studios to use it, despite the fact it's a complicated engine better suited for FPS games (and Bioware is definitely known for their FPS titles). Glad to see the devs have managed to iron out those issues, but, lets be honest, EA kinda set Bioware up to fail prior to Veilguard.
Can't wait for this game. These suckers won't ruin my expectations and my experience with this game. People constantly hated dai but when i played it it became kne of my favorite games. You can suck it up
I just wanted Dreadwolf. I wanted to see what happened after Inquisition, and for them to further the story in a meaningful way. I'm sure I'll enjoy the fuck out of this one, regardless.
I've been so hesitant about the release of the game man, I REALLY want to play this and feel the same way about it that I did when I played Origins, DA2, and even Inquisition. Staying cautiously optimistic for now though, and will definitely be excited to see the reviews on release! Another great vid as always Luke, thanks!
Man I really do value your opinion on games. You're critical but fair and most importantly you know what you're talking about. Sooo seeing this makes me really happy! I'm not a huge dragon age fan, but a HUGE Mass Effect fan and if this game goes sideways BioWare is done and there wouldn't be a ME5. Also happy for all the die hard DA fans who had to hold out for so long.
I am personally convinced this game will suck but I'm entirely willing to be proven wrong. I think that's what a lot of the detractors refuse to consider. They want the game to fail regardless of the actual quality of the game.
I'm sold. I despise how ALL the love interests are pansexual, but after Inquisition, I still trust Bioware.This video has won me over, as reluctant as I am to say this.
I relate lol. And I agree on the love interests - plus, I'm not a huge fan of the fact that all party members are romanceable. I liked how in previous games, companions had their own things going on, their own goals, their own lives. You can flirt with Aveline, but you're not the one for her, and she remarries during the game. You can flirt with Sera as a male character, but she'll turn you down, because she's a lesbian. Characters who can't be romanced, or characters whose romances are gated behind certain factors, helps them feel more "real" to me. Sad to see that going out the window to bow down to modern trends.
@@michalvoh lol that’s not true at all. And completely unfair. EA has never said all their games are for a modern audience. EVERY company was making games for a modern audience the past 6 years and things are changing.
@@Nagram_ BG3 was definitely not for the modern audience. The women and men were beautiful. The characters actually had backstories and strong personalities. All of the LGBTQ characters didn't make that their whole personality and had very detailed and thought out quest lines. It didn't feel like they were including them for brownie points. Heck the modern audience even tried to cancel it for some stupid reason or another but it failed.
This is very encouraging. Every iteration of Dragon Age has been vastly different in terms of style, setting or gameplay. It's the core of story, choice & character development that has always been it's biggest strength. If that remains intact I can put up with alot. Even...purple.
I really hope this does well for Bioware. I absolutely adore the DA franchise and Bioware! I cant see a world where Bioware isn't making games and so hopefully DA and the new ME games do well so they can keep making games we all love.
7 hours is a good chunk of time and shows confidence in what theyve made, while im still dissapointed in how limiting the ability choices are in combat this is the first time I've been interested in this game
The negativity around this game is crazy Do people just want a 1 to 1 remake of Origins or Inquisition? Games can and should change with each iteration. The tone does not need to stay the same all the time Game looks good in my opinion
But this doesnt even look like dragon age. If they released a trailer and didnt call it dragon age i wouldn't ever be able to tell this was suppose to be the sequel to inquistion
Well you kind of answered. your question people do want the 1 to 1 it seems... Now this game will be an good game probably, me I dont particularly like the art direction and the choice of going with a DA 2 blueprint like gameplay but it doesn't mean the game is shit for that. The issue is basically that most people didnt want them to go toward that. Truth is most people wanted Origin truth is this "new crew" has to prove itself with this game. It's unfair, it's life.
Damn, Luke is really starting to be very positive about games he gets early access to these days, hope this game is better than mediocre atleast. Wasn't he very positive about OutLaws too?
He said that "Some" parts were enjoyable, in the review he also put highlights on flaws. Oh and btw. He was positive about space marine 2. Or in that case, somehow he is right:0000 because nobody was angry about the game, so nobody had other opinions
Graphics look great, not a fan of the art style, enemy designs and combat looks meh. I am not sold on this one, definitely gonna be a "wait and see" for me.
Yeah, visually the game looks fantastic, but its art design, especially for the characters, just feels so so weird. They look kinda blurry? Too smooth, and the qunari have "evolved" again to a new design lmao
reminder : its Bioware in name only now the people that made those IPs so strong aren't there anymore this game is DoA to anyone that wanted DA to return to form tone, visuals, romance, customization, gameplay - so many warning signs already
Cool. This preview has changed my mind, instead of completely dismissing it, I will now take some time to watch reviews when the game launches. And that’s it. I’m not preordering it or getting hyped in the slightest.
Well its because when the video first released the comments were mostly about that, now as more and more people watch the logical comments tend to get more likes and go up. And if you want to search for the hate you dont have to get far onto the comments there are still easy to find. Even if you dont want to scrool down search the comment thread on every top comment and you ll see them.
