Beware Bioware wrote edited for massive spoiler then proceed to bloody spoil a big thing. Wunderbar. you mean the video has spoilers? or is the EA website article? I guess I should avoid both of them? The spoiler is in the very beginning of the video. Don't click the video if you go to the website.

The hair physics in the combat video is very impressive! I'm happy we are no longer limited by technology when it comes to hair length and movement. In the release date trailer even the male crow had nice physics on his hair. Say what you want about Frosty, it does produce beautiful games... I hope ME5 does the same, even though it's probably going to be built on UE5...

Lol, and people wonder why it takes them so long to show something - it seems that all of Veilguard is so story-heavy that publishing any part of it (even if only to highlight combat) is spoilerific

So, the combat videos dropped. I really liked that the intro of the first video states that it has been edited to avoid spoilers but the following sentence is a huge spoiler

Overwhelming.
It's clear that team+gear+ability selection must match the mission parameters.
During the Inventory segment, I got the impression that the companions were part of Rook's inventory... LOL Shades of Mortal Kombat !!! Companion assignment unclear Lots of Pausing... necessary / and/or for this demo?
One thing for sure, Rook is mighty busy and does most of the damage. Another sure thing... fast action combat... fast
I'll have to review this teaching video over and over.
I want to see the PC K&M UI.

Edit the article looks spoiler free to me.
It's a "teaching" video about combat. BG3 is simpler, imo.

Hair physics is what impressed you?
I was looking to see what the companions were doing... you know, delivering the hurt... just saw glimpses of them.

An exaggeration I'm sure. Yet, the studio did take great pains to avoid what they considered spoilers. So, this says the demo is spoiler freeeee !!

An exaggeration I'm sure. Yet, the studio did take great pains to avoid what they considered spoilers. So, this says the demo is spoiler freeeee !! After the previous trailers and the magazine articles I don't think the information was that spoilery. Perhaps the direct link between the goddess and her arch-demon but even that may not mean what people might assume, since someone pointed out that Corys dragon was referred to as an arch-demon when it wasn't really, in terms of the ones that start a Blight that were imprisoned underground. If it does literally mean that this is one of the two remaining Old God dragons that has now teamed up with Ghil, well I always thought Solas was lying/using equivocation when he said there was "nothing in lore" to link the Old Gods with his people. Perfectly true when you consider much of the pre-Veil lore had been forgotten or only partially remembered, except by him and Flemeth.

I haven't watched it myself, but I've seen a screenshot where the current quest or objective was quite spoilery, and I had the thought that maybe they've edited some quest names and descriptions to mislead us? But of course, if the trailer shows a lot of stuff that corresponds to that thing and it couldn't be something else in disguise, it probably is just a straight up spoiler. Until I know for sure, though, I'll just pretend it's a fake spoiler

I'm kinda hoping that destroying Bianca is just the same means as destroying our Inky's arm - it's just a way to justify them not being in the thick of it with us. Hopefully it could also mean that Varric could also perhaps move on from the actual Bianca? Like, I get she's his big love, but at the end of the day she's with her husband and I think Varric deserves some happiness after all the shit he's been through. Hidden Varric romance Bioware? Common, you know you want to!My thinking (my delusion?) has been leaning this way also. The destruction of Bianca-the-crossbow is symbolism for Varric finally moving on from Bianca-the-dwarf. Also, there are currently 3 male love interests and 4 female, and so Varric being a love interest would even that out. Plus there was that video that some of the devs and cast did (smash or pass? something like that), and when Varric came up as an option, they all immediately said smash. That's my fantasy, and I'm sticking to it until the game dashes my hairy dwarf romance dreams

A lot o' love for the Rogue at the BW offices. I do like that the Spellblade is the #1 choice for Mages! (I couldn't help but notice the showcase centered around the least-loved specialization of the least-loved class at the BW offices. )

Please Bio, don't make me laugh. What is the composition of this team? What age group(s). Are the fans of DAO-DA2. Are they fans of the AI script? Are they fans of the castrati mages?
Statistics can be manipulated in so many, many way to suit your narrative.
BTW, Hrungr , is there a link somewhere? Thanks

A good comment (IMO) from the DA Community Council member. Kala Elizabeth @kalaelizabethI know people are surprised at how many spoilers have been revealed about Dragon Age Veilguard. BUT spoilers were always inevitable (BG3 even had the final fight in their trailers) so watching stuff is at your own risk! I think they just feel comfortable with what they have still saved as surprised (I know a few things and yeah, people are in for a treat!) but please be kind. I understand people don't want spoilers but don't be rude to the devs or to people openly talking about what has been revealed as everyone's threshold for spoilers is different! #DragonAge

And we probably had some scenes from near the end in the release date trailer for Veilguard too. The thing is that you don't know those are part of the final until you get there or someone who already played the game tells you.

Naw, the Warrior specifically has an ability to give themselves a flame sword. That is very new.

Personally I don't care about spoilers because a good story doesn't rely on surprise to be effective. But your mileage may vary, or whatever. Although it really wouldn't have been hard for them to just say, 'darkspawn are attacking Weisshaupt, get ready to fight' either.

Beware Bioware wrote edited for massive spoiler then proceed to bloody spoil a big thing. Wunderbar. It seems to be a minor spoiler to me. The first playthrough video revealed that the disrupted ritual released two elvan "gods". This video gives a name to one of the elvan gods. Is there more to this spoiler than this?
