Which would you choose (for Mage)? Me: Blizzard Icebreaker Replenish Time Slow Bellara's "Galvanized Tear" looks cool also ("Pull of the Abyss" vibes), and Emmrich's "Entangling Spirits" sounds like fun, though I don't remember seeing it. IIf I' mnot a mage mysel fprobabl yNeve as she can freeze them then I'll smas hthem. Lov edoing that t ofrozen targets in DAI.

Would be nice to get corroboration but this is one analysis of EA Investor Information. I believe there are laws that stop public companies telling porkies.

What I would take from the companions is increased number of abilities. Why do they get 5 and Rook 3? Is Rook an apprentice? Rook should have at least 8. Companions have 3 where rook had 3 and rook have in the skill tree more than 3 and their the companion have 5.

I'm hyped for the game and most things either has me tentatively excited with a few potential problems or VERY excited. I see very few genuine negatives so I know I'll enjoy it. But the negative commentary has been a bit taxing because while I don't personally care Bioware still needs the sales and so public perception is important. And generally this game is seeming to be well recieved by genuine DA fans the negativity from probably the lower tiers and non DA fans has been concerning. So to see this news is a bit of a RDJ meme moment.

Companies are often like our buddy Solas, technically they're not lying but they aren't being truthful either. Remember ME3 promotion, it's not "A, B, C endings" ? They weren't lying it was red blue green. You're talking about marketing versus shareholder disclosures. They are not the same. People can go to jail for lying in these disclosures. No matter what you, or anyone else might think about DAVe, Bioware or EA generally - this information is true. No-one is going to risk spending time in prison to make DAVe sound like it is selling better than it is.

"So, there’s a bunch of different options there in addition to lowering the amount – I wish I captured footage of this, I really regret it – but there’s the amount of visual feedback you can cut down on, if you feel like the game is being too visually cluttered on the screen, whether there’s everybody’s health bars are up, in addition to all of the notifications when a ranged attacker is attacking you and you see like where they’re attacking from, all that stuff can be kind of cut down in the menus, which, I think they’ve done just a great job at just giving the player as many options as they want.” - Kinda Funny Games

What are their expectations? 'Expectations' are typically what they have planned and budgeted for. Like Square were disappointed that Rebirth fell below 'expectations'. Granted, their expectations could be modest or excessive, we don't know and the majority of sales will be the weeks of and after launch. All it really means is that company (at this point) is neither giving out executive gifts to the game directors nor running around in panic.

No-one is going to risk spending time in prison to make DAVe sound like it is selling better than it is. But what is "strong" demand? What are their expectations? I am purely speculating on this, as I'm only looking at this in the confines of pre-orders and most of the games sales likely coming from console. Since DATV is going to be current gen only, it might not hit as high as Inquisition did in its first few months, but I think that's expected. If I had to guess, maybe the anticipated pre-order range is somewhere between 200 - 350k?

Those are indeed subjective, but the expectations part seems to mean that the game is on track, for now at least, to satisfy what they expect of Veilguard, sales-wise. Their expectations on the game's sales might not be big (we have no way to know either way), but it might lead, if it continues to respect those expectations, that the game would be financial success for EA, which would allievate some concerns of Bioware's future post-Veilguard.
