I hope we do get a wardrobe and have the ability to switch out the casual wear. I may not want to always wear the faction casual wear, maybe sometimes I want to switch out to something else. It also helps represent roleplay, maybe you're playing a character who doesn't really like their faction and is happy they get away from them, so wearing their branded casual wear would be weird. I agree but it ma ydepend on how much tim ewe spend in the Lighthouse. As I said w edon' tactually spen dmuch time in Hawkes hom eso w edidn't hav to worry too much abou tou rcasual wear. Als olik eI asid w espend a lo to ftim ein Skyhold running the Inquisition so makes sense t ohave a wardrobe there. Since they created casual wear based on each faction I think it's reasonable to assume we'll spend enough time in the Lighthouse to make that effort matter. Creating 6 different outfits, that I would hope aren't just simple recolors, isn't a completely insignificant area to put time into. Also, I think there's enough counter-culture adherent people at Bioware to know that clothing maketh man/roleplay.

DAVG is 57th most wishlisted game on Steam, it was barely within top 100 before cinematic reveal trailer dropped. Pretty impressive for a studio that hasn't put out anything new since 2019 and hasn't had an uncontroversial release since 2014. Are these wishlists mostly dormant DA fans, I wonder, or just new players who like what they've seen so far? There are new fans, especially with multiple sales of Dragon Age titles over the years and especially recently.
As for the sales, well in 2021 MELE was released and it sold between 1.4 million to 2.2 million copies on Steam alone since. Add to unknown number of copies sold on EA App directly and later on Epic, that really shows there's still significant interest by old and new fans for BioWare IPs.
Hell Andromeda sold between half a million to 1.8 million copies too, even though it was released on Steam 3 years after it's release, as part of massive return of EA titles in June 2020. In fact I went to check, Inquisition just as well if not slightly better, as it also goes around half a million to 2.1 million copies sold.
Anthem is the only BioWare title not released on Steam.

I'm curious about the last names, established by our faction choice. Also: is it possible we'll be referred to by our surnames (in addition to "Rook") in dialogue, at times? They've done it before with Scott and Sara... What is the "Thorne" seen on the left side of the screen, here, below "Rook"? One of the faction last names? Might be human( city elf?) Lords of Fortune surname, as GI article has mentioned they were playing as character from that faction.

Yeah, the entire series was on sale for just $10 and I bit the bullet. I haven't played these games since 2015, at least, when they were in my brother's Origin account, but I figured this is a good time for a nostalgia trip, particularly when it comes so cheap. Maybe after a decade, I'll be more forgiving of Inquisition' foibles I actually have never played Witch Hunt or any of DA2 or DA:I's DLC...

Anthem, in my opinion, would give Steam a bad name.

I believe EA/Bioware said the remaster did better than expected? That's a good thing. I would guess sales for it will go up as more info is released for the next ME game.

I hope there is good replay value with the factions. With Hogwarts Legacy I was sure I would want to replay the game as each House but there just wasn't much different to be worth it.

I wonder if it's the nudity thing. But there has to be ways to avoid that, one would think.

I wouldn't be surprised if CC was still worked on - even if it's 99% done, they probably still want to test everything before release, and we know how some gamers are - one detail from promo material or unreleased game differs from the released version and it's enough for some to try and cause drama.

Hm... you're on to something. Bio did mention body sliders. Then again, it's 18+ rated, so what's the issue?

The only thing I can think of otherwise is that there's still a surprise in there they might want to keep for later, something that would gain traction and spread the word of the game more?

Ghil'dirthalen has posted a new video: In it, she's going through DA lore and the history of Thedas to help people get up to speed for Veilguard. Something she mentions is that the Antaam has broken away from the rest of the Qunari and is lead by the Arishok who we used to know as Sten in 'Origins'. Could it be we'll see Stenishok in Veilguard? My mind is reeling over this possibility right now. Sten scared the crap out of me. The moment you recruit him in Origins you just know "Yeah, this guy. This f*ckin guy is going to start some sh*t." "I hear the Arishok was replaced by the Arishok. But he'd better watch out. In the shadows, the Arishok." You know he's coming over with the Antaam and throw us around like ragdolls.
