Dragon Age: The Veilguard (God, I actually dislike that title change) is sort of right here, lastly. After an early scare due to a barely complicated first trailer, that gameplay demo quelled a lot of our worries, however can it actually escape Baldur’s Gate 3’s shadow?
I am of the placing opinion that it already has… form of. It is laborious not to consider Larian’s near-flawless RPG every time the brand new Dragon Age is introduced up (actually, I already linked the 2 final yr), but all of the in-depth previews and the gameplay presentation launched to the general public recommend we’re a wholly totally different breed of RPG, one which’s doing its personal factor.
In our personal hands-on preview of the sport, Alex already teased that “Dragon Age: The Veilguard goes to be quite a lot of issues to lots of people.” And I believe that is sums up the unorthodox sequence as a complete fairly properly. Anybody who claims Dragon Age hasn’t developed (or devolved) with every new entry is both mendacity or urgently must revisit not solely Inquisition, but additionally Dragon Age 2 and Origins.
