Back home... time to catch up! Anyone else get a Dr. Manhattan vibe from the redesigned demons? Is that first one a re-designed despair demon? If so I dig it! The second looks like something that thankfully walked off my plate at a bad restaurant.

Ah, what is this? Several pages of Solas discourse? Feels like... home... I've softened a little bit on Solas and I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. But if he legit kills Varric, I fear that's a glowy murderknife to the throat for our dear '' friend '' no matter how much of a good egg (pun intended) he proves himself to be. Some crimes just cannot go unpunished. well h edidn' tkil lVarric in th egamepla ytraile rbut he does destroy Bianca

I also noticed Rook & Harding have hoods in this screenshot. I wonder if they're part of the cloaks, a separate item (part of an armor set)...?

David Gaider @davidgaiderI've been pretty busy, but I finally got a chance to sit down and watch the gameplay reveal. If you're interested, some thoughts from someone who's going into this as fresh as any of you: Overall, I'd say this made for a better introduction than the reveal trailer. We see some story, and tone-wise it feels a lot darker and more DA. Like I said, trailers often need to be taken with a grain of salt, and my impression is that many fans are relieved. Which is great. I could pick on a few things. The stylized characters will take some getting used to, but the DA art style has changed every game so that's nothing new. Combat is more action-y, without any tactical elements, but it seems fine. Style is not much different than, say, DA2's combat. The environments look amazing, full stop. To see the sprawl of Minrathous - wow. I wish we could have done this for Kirkwall or even Val Royeaux. Utterly gorgeous, sells the breadth and tone, such great work. I had to laugh when I saw the return of the DA2 dialogue icons. Will "Purple Rook" be a thing? Let's hope so! Paraphrases seem even shorter, if that's possible, but maybe it was just this section of the game. It was lovely to see Solas & get a hint of the story to come. Could probably chatter about the implications for days, and how this aligns (or doesn't) with where I thought the story would go... but I won't. I'm just eager to see where this goes. To the folks at Bio: great job.

Since fighting three gods at once is definitely outside our skill level, I think we steal the blade and run off while Solas is distracted. As long as we have that blade, he can’t do his ritual after all. I did notice he isn't carrying the blade anymore at the end of the gameplay but I didn't catch what happened to it. It’s behind him at the bottom of the staircase, surrounded by green magic. I think they cut out some scenes to avoid spoilers?

Jacques Strapp 🏒 @wtfman999 I guess I’ll relate this back to Dragon Age in a way, I always liked more complex fights. The closest I felt we had was Legacy Corypheous, anything like that in Veil Guard? Don’t need to know the enemy name 😊
Michael Gamble @gamblemike Yes. there's some stuff in there that takes forever to get to and then kicks your ass for a while. Some fixed level stuff that you need to explore to find.

Also the Qunari in Trespasser, and presumably turning a few of them to stone wouldn't put them off. No wonder the man doesn't have time to get his building site certified, he's got more enemies chasing him than Sketch in DA2.

I think we are going to find out whatever Solas was running around doing while Varric and Harding were chasing him over the map in The Missing.

Holloway @hollowaysimmerThat's a huge shame. I was hoping it would have explorable areas like inquisition had. Michael Gamble @gamblemikethere are explorable areas. Ergh, explorable areas such as open world? I'm exhausted from all that tbh. Running in circles in some fields doing side quests while the supposed "urgency" of the main quest just sits there not mattering. By the time I get back on track I've forgotten what happened last with the main story. Some exploring is fine, but I hope these maps are small and few.

I'm not really at liberty to discuss anything specific. I can say that more details will keep coming about the game so you may just have to wait, unfortunately. I believe there is a Dev Q&A on Friday where you could try asking. Thank you for responding! I look forward to hearing all the granular details from you after the game actually releases.
The Q&A is on at 3am local time, but I already ruined my sleep schedule this week staying up for the trailer and the combat preview so I'll probably be there anyway .

Outside of the demons (which may be explained), that gameplay reveal seems to have alleviated most of the angst in the fandom. A lot of hype now starting to show.
I’m gonna be so impatient… while some changes may take getting used to, I just want to be back in a Bioware world with fully realised characters again. Other devs have tried, but no one has come close to pulling off what Bioware does. Hopefully, this game fills the void from the past 7 years.

So I refreshed my memories on some details. I know this has all been discussed before and I just forgot over time but if somebody could help me out. Did Solas ever say how he planned to take care of the evanuris once the veil came down? Did he expect them to be so weak that he could just kill them? Did he want to kill them at all? I think I struggled with this before trying to understand this plan of his. Even if we ignore the mass murder bringing down the veil would entail and focus on the world he wanted to rebuild for his people, how was this going to work out with pissed off "gods"? We'll learn of this in DAV no doubt. But this was a super risky plan even for his own people. If he failed to kill or subdue his fellow gods, then things would go back to being a shitty slave society probably with gods in an even fouler mood. So he basically accepted huge collateral damage and possibly also making things even worse for his people if he failed. What sane person would allow this to happen? Solas is unhinged at best. I am only spitballing here, but my guesstimate is he thought maybe he could still keep the Evanuris locked away somehow somewhere while bringing down the Veil to intermingle terrestrial and magical planes again. HOW, I do not know. But I say this because of his line about trying to “mitigate the damage” and then by his shocked/oh-shit face after the two released Evanuris rose up. I think perhaps the convoluted statue ring energy thing was a part of the ritual meant to keep the Evanuris entombed (to “mitigate the damage” to Thedas as a whole were they to be released) while doing whatever Veil tearing he was doing carefully with his exacto knife. But the statues coming down broke open that prison and now it’s all tits up, so to speak.
