Disappointing. This looks like a mobile shooter game, not an AAA title. The tone seems to pick right up where the terrible Netflix show left off. Where is the dark fantasy, where is the threat, where the hell is Solas? Why do the faces look like plastic? This is NOT what I have been waiting for. very goofy, can't really take this seriously lmao.
My poor Duncan died for this.
The GI coverage, at least personally, shown screenshots from the game that look quite differently in terms of the style from the trailer. It's possible that they made the cinematic trailer with the intent of attracting a different type of crowd. If true, it's a weird choice.

Totally agree. But Mark said "Honestly thats the .. my favorite bioware trailer i think we've ever done". But hey, its his opinion. In my opinion is the most "missed the mark" trailer they've ever done Delusion is one hell of a drug. This doesn't fill me with confidence.

Liked the trailer - the art style, if it holds for the game itself, may take a bit of getting used to.
GRIFFINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Music choice was weird. But, *points to Origins 'the new shit' trailer*, they have form for that.
Overall - it was good, looking forward to the gameplay.

The stylization in the trailer took me off guard but overall I rolled with it. The Fortnite comparison make me scratch my head, do people really think they look identical? The only one that made me go "Eh, I think this is a bit too much" is Emmrich. On top of that we've got the GameInformer screenshots(?) that look definitely more "realistic", so who knows how the game will actually look. Guess we'll have to wait until June 11th! I get why many dislike the artstyle, but I'm in a weird sort of disconnect because I love DA so much that they could give me a Persona-fied Dragon Age game and I'd play the hell out of it if it's good

The trailers from ages ago? Since which a lot of crap might have been changed, including the title?

Four times in now:
The art style. I noticed that it's disjointed and weird because the companion splash bits are super stylized pieces of art. Like it goes from gameplay looking to that very quickly. The gameplay bits look fine,Inquisition like, the splash screens were obviously done outside the graphics. Odd choice but more I think less worried I am.
The combat, not always indicitive mind you since leiliana did this in a trailer in Inquisition. But Harding whacked an enemy with her bow limbs. Not exactly realistic but fine and something I don't mind. Also Rook knocked a chandelier down, environtal strategic combat?
Emrich has skelly boy, Davrin has a griffin. Does this mean we will have a lot of familiars? Will Rook?
Also the music is my favorite part of the trailer. I need a music rip now.

There was a minor elf NPC in the forest portion of the Exalted Plains that was black IIRC.
Regarding the trailer, like most people, I'm not crazy about the more cartoony artstyle and the irreverent tone it has, and I already heavily dislike Bellara's "quirky" personality. However, I'm reserving judgment on the game proper til Tuesday, when we can actually see how the graphics look in-game and whether the companions are going to have the Marvel-esque dialogue and vibe the trailer seems to be putting out.
Yeah, cinematic trailers for Inquisition also did not match actual in-game art style.
Gameplay reveal will be more relevant to judge.
Which trailers are you referring to? Because by my recollection the DA:I trailers all had the exact art style and overall aesthetic as the gameplay.
Just by searching for a few:

Solas will still be the center of the game don't know why they changed the title but I think it has something to do with Solas' plan with the veil.

Have they confirmed whether this is the complete companion list, or are there more that haven't been revealed yet? It feels a little off-balanced.

I doubt the characters will look different in the gameplay trailer. Who goes ahead and creates different character models for a trailer, especially if they don't look as good as the in-game ones? And BioWare wouldn't have the time and staff to spare for that kind of thing anyway given recent events. They apparently did.
*content removed by moderator* - Do not attempt to circumvent the forum's auto-censor preventing slurs from being posted.
It's clear that I am not in the target demographics for these latest DA games, so I'm really unbothered about what's going on with the DA series - although it's pretty hilarious. The only thing I'd wish for is for the DA devs/decision makers to stay away from Mass Effect.

Well. That was something.
*checks post count in past 24 hours* We're gonna need a bigger boat.
Ah - didn't love the art style, it has to be said. But maybe it'll grow on me, or be slightly "less" when the game is actually being played. Cinematic trailers like this - even ones built 'entirely in game engine' - are always dialled up to 11.
The companions have a good look - although the Necromancer seems weird, but again - art style.
Harding. Got. Hot.

Maybe a goofy question - have we had black elves before? In the comics, 100%. There may have been some in Origin Dalish camp? But it's been a while. Edit add: Origin Citi Elf mom was dark skin too, right? In Leliana's Song

I think that is what Taash is meant to be? Davrin can be half-elf and half-human. Lore wise, no. If he has pointed ears at all, he can't be a mixed species child in the world of Dragon Age. , do we get hired to lead that bunch of misfits just because we save Varric/Harding asses during a bar brawl against a group of Venatori? That is the vibe I got. I'm not crazy about the more cartoony artstyle and the irreverent tone it has Hate the irreverent tone, absolutely. OMG, is there a purple Hawke reference in the trailer I missed?!
