I hope when it’s released you can turn off the MMO features and play solo. I just want to get high, bomb hills, and watch my dude get all of his bones obliterated like the good ol days. I don’t need some clown decked out in a $100 dinosaur costume telling me I suck ass to heighten the experience.
Soon EA new game will be like old upgrades game you want the start button 5$ the setting button 10$ save slot that be a 30$ with 5$ more for all additionnal one
You can spend real-world money on a virtual currency called San Van Bucks, which in turn is used to buy cosmetic items.
I hate this but if it’s just cosmetics and the game price is fair I’ll be ok with it. I know the price is going to be a full on AAA release and they will still cram this into it… but I can hope.
lol, imagine a studio developing a game for half a decade and then just sharing it out.
“Don’t tell our staff, but it was a labour of love and they’re all being let go because we’re out of investor funds. Also don’t tell the investors. Or the publisher. In fact don’t say anything until we’ve made it to Montenegro.”
Man, that's a fair point. If you want to be mad at something be mad at the five year dev cycle into an early access launch. I'm not even saying it's the devs or EA's fault. Making games is hard. And expensive. But definitely hard.
I have to say, I was pretty neutral on this coming in, but reading all the people posturing anger while clearly not having any awareness of what the game is supposed to be or even reading the article is getting kind of annoying.
How is this news? This news the plan all along, they were quite vocal about it. Free to play games are always funded by mtx.
I know this is an unpopular opinion here but I think the game looks dope, having followed development since the beginning. The animations look sick and I’m always there for another skateboarding game. I just won’t buy any skins.
...Yeah. I just read the playtest email like 5 minutes ago and saw that. The way they worded it like it was an opportunity is also Pretty Shit™ lol. I almost hope the game sucks now so I don't have to be conflicted about it.
These things always annoy the hell out of me. Not because they’re giving the game away so soon after release, but because they always say they’re giving the games away for free when they’re not. You have to have a PS+ account to play these. If you ever unsub you lose access to these games until you subscribe again. My library of games that I own should not be a subscription service. If you’re giving me a “free” game it should actually be free and not contigent upon a $70 yearly fee. Xbox used to do the same thing but you actually got to keep your games if you ever unsubscribed from live gold.
Were you a big dragon age beforehand? From what I can tell, it seems like old fans actually did like the game but newcomers (who I’m sure were the reason the game morphed so much) had a much colder reception. I loved dao, hated da2, and liked dai but still haven’t taken the plunge on this one.
I’m not OP but I am a long time DA fan (in the sense that I have played each game as a non-completionist at or shortly after release, and have often listed Origins as one of my favorite games of all time) and I’m right there with you on the previous games. I found the game totally fine. It was on par with inquisition and better than DA2 imho. If you liked the others and are a fan I think you’ll enjoy it well enough. Sure, some of the dialogue and story is a little stiff, but I think people have rose colored glasses on when they remember DA:O’s story.
It’s really hard to get people’s real opinion about the new game because a lot of them just wanna use it as a culture war proxy and either hate it because it because they’re anti-LGBTQ, or vehemently defend it to show how pro-LGBTQ they are. Both groups are annoying even though I am a leftist. I don’t really give a fuck about any of that in the context of the game. The game is fun and anyone who is obsessing over the game for political/social stuff probably didn’t actually play it, because it’s a tiny tiny portion of content in the middle of a huge game. People just want to paint this as a bellwether on the future of wokeness in games, when in reality it’s just a bellwether on if people are still into the same ol (fun as hell) BioWare formula.
Every time some incel wants to start a conversation about DA:V, I just point them to Baldur’s Gate 3.
That game is inclusive and diverse, and also fucks - both in the “adult content” sense, disproving their myths about diversity somehow siding together with censorship, and in the quality sense.
The dramatic fall in writing has happened across the industry and should be no surprise to anyone.
It’s on PS plus before 6 months, that should be all the red flags you need not to waste your time.
The writing is atrocious, the art style is atrocious (personal opinion), the only saving grace is technical execution, the final product is very polished in terms of bugs, stability and performance.
Old fans dislike the game because all decision making has been removed from the player and it’s a dumbed down fantasy RPG. The combat is so incredibly pared back that you could play it with touch controls (now that it has completed the transition to an action game). It’s not a dragon age game in everything but name. They butchered the game to please the fortnite generation, but no amount of skibidi will bring those players to dragon age, meanwhile the original fans were left behind and consequently opted to play far better games instead, like Baldur’s Gate 3. Bioware is pretty much running on name recognition alone, any talent that existed there has long left the company.
I enjoyed the first 2 games but after seeing a video of those ‘supposedly woke’ ragebait scenes I knew I wont ever want this in my library. I dont know what the purpose behind that stuff is but its disturbing…
