It's nearly time for me to go in the spoiler bunker until release day, just want to see more about the skill trees first! Same, but I need to know more about the CC before I do - the fact that they are holding out on it makes them terrible teases! I want to be able to pre-craft my character as much as possible before release, or I'll just spend stupid amounts of time creating and re-creating my hero over and over again. I also would like to work on my Rook in CC before launch but....It's my Solavellan that I really want to get right. It has been 10 years since she last spoke to Solas in Trespasser. Meeting him in Veilguard, however Bioware chooses to do it, must be correct. It is the main reason I am playing this game.

For those who were here for longer... Considering the IGN First Month-Long exclusive, did Anthem and MEA receive such positive media coverage before they started receiving backlash? Because all the buzz is giving me the feeling that DAve will be a good and finished game on release. Maybe with some issues in the middle/later parts, since every game has it nowadays. MEA definitely wasn't a positive coverage. You could even feel it in Bioware's promotion of the game. Something was off. There wasn't the excitement of the devs that you can see for DAV. The gameplay videos also didn't seem exciting, the open world seemed boring in them and not the needed step up from DAI. People hoped it's good, but I guess most knew it might not be up to par.
Anthem was a whole different disaster. It had a ton of hype before launch, but literally every gameplay video was full of red flags and seemed to contradict almost every promise the developers made beforehand. The Demo was a pretty clear indication of what to expect, but many chose to ignore it and hope Bioware would fix everything with a Day 1 Patch. Not possible as it turned out.
So far we seem to get what we are promised in DAV. The gameplay videos line up with the developer's stated goals. So at the very least - we will be getting the game Bioware wanted to make. Not some twisted version that was Frankensteined in a year.

It may be a little thing, but what made me perk up was the announcement that the game would be available as a Steam Native version instead of using the dreadful EA App. To me this is an attention to detail and customer convenience that probably wouldn't happen if they were rushing their product over the finish line in a panicked hurry. They had the time to put in the effort to do this, and I think that's a good sign for the product's level of polish on release.

I have my two weeks off early November now as well, getting mildly excited Game is looking very promising for me the more that is revealed (plus, it helps reading Tevinter Nights currently, looooove all the short stories so far and it's a perfect setup in to the game!). I hope to head out to a store on October 31st and buy the game. November 1st is a public holiday in some parts of Germany, so if I order it online and the post does not deliver on time, I'd rant the whole day, so I'd rather pick it up in person

Looks like the goal there was for it to work well on Steam Deck and EA app is apparently an issue when used via Steam there from what I read. I actually wonder what is the stats of people playing DA games on Linux/Steam Decks (I'm at least one of them since May).

So rewatched the vid to see a few things: At times Rook was doing barely any damage, sometimes she was doing a lot. Same for companions. I was wrong that Davrin's death from above did a lot in the example that was given, but then it was an armored target. However later on they had Lucanis use Eviscerate which knocked down an entire fire team worth of Darkspawn between a third and a half health. They also called out Lucanis's adrenaline rush which provided a buff to Rook's stats. So even rogues can buff you. Like Andromeda this game is built around team synergies. Rook can't do this without her companions and they can't do it without her. Combinations and the like. So yes, seems companions won't be useful at all.
Rook had to activate Lucanis' Rush. The dumb companion could not make that decision all by his lonesome. As I said before, Lucanis is inventory
We know from the first Discord Q&A (from Corrine Busche) that there are ways to have your companions automatically utilize skills (ex. for setting up combos).

They should run the prologue with a different class to avoid spoilers....and people will cry we are seeing stuff we have already seen. I wasn't expecting another 22 minutes vid so soon, but it might not have that long of gameplay in it, since these sometimes pause while the dev talks.

Hopefully, we'll get a chance to hear from some of the other devs as they start diving into the specific aspects of the game. I'll be at work when it drops tomorrow, so I'll create a thread shortly as we already have all the info we need.

Considering the IGN First Month-Long exclusive, did Anthem and MEA receive such positive media coverage before they started receiving backlash? Andromeda was doing pretty well until the gameplay trailer dropped at the Game Awards 2016 (Dec 1 ahead of March launch). That sent a good deal of the discussion negative. Of course official BSN had been canned only a few months earlier. The early access made things a good deal worse ('my face is tired' etc...) As for Anthem, the launch trailer was an internet darling. But the game itself struggled to match up to it's own launch trailer. I remember the car crashes of both the closed beta which I experienced and then launch day itself (it took me around 7 hours to get in). Veilguard did start poorly with the character trailer (questions over tone) but the trajectory seems uphill.
22 minutes of new & exclusive gameplay from Dragon Age: The Veilguard, with IGN's Kat Bailey chatting to BioWare's Corinne Busche and John Epler. It's BioWare's confidence that is pleasing me the most.

Surprised but pleased it's another 20+ mins. My guess is several clips/demos with different companions and Rook classes and no story stuff. Covers a lot and spoils nothing?
Hope there's more mage footage in there? All we got was like 20 secs in that NVidia demo.

Yeah I'm leaning toward Spellblade as I loved being a tankier/hard hitting mage in Inquisition with the Knight Enchanter specialisation! Whenever I went to fight dragons it was me, Bull, and Viv all up front with a ranged person taking shots from afar (Usually Sera or Varric to add a Rogue into the mix!)

Considering the IGN First Month-Long exclusive, did Anthem and MEA receive such positive media coverage before they started receiving backlash? Andromeda was doing pretty well until the gameplay trailer dropped at the Game Awards 2016 (Dec 1 ahead of March launch). That sent a good deal of the discussion negative. Of course official BSN had been canned only a few months earlier. The early access made things a good deal worse ('my face is tired' etc...) As for Anthem, the launch trailer was an internet darling. But the game itself struggled to match up to it's own launch trailer. I remember the car crashes of both the closed beta which I experienced and then launch day itself (it took me around 7 hours to get in). Veilguard did start poorly with the character trailer (questions over tone) but the trajectory seems uphill.
22 minutes of new & exclusive gameplay from Dragon Age: The Veilguard, with IGN's Kat Bailey chatting to BioWare's Corinne Busche and John Epler. It's BioWare's confidence that is pleasing me the most. Yeah th efact htat Biowa reitself sems t ob ehappy wit hwha tthey've done wih Veilguard is good and what gameplay they'v eshown us with the Rogue and Warrior looks goo dtoo. We obviously can't say too much about mage becaus ewe'v eonl yseen lik ea 30secon dtraile rfo rtha tand whils tit looked cool it's no tmuch to go on. So hopefull yIGN will fix that. I' mlookin gforward t owavin gmy staff around regardless.

Hope there's more mage footage in there? All we got was like 20 secs in that NVidia demo. Yeah, fingers-crossed we'll get a Mage Rook this time. Wouldn't say no to some Spellblade footage...
Hm... I understood the Archer class is up next.
