Bioware was my favorite studio for a decades. I loved them, their games, I knew names of people behind their games. And now I shocked by what I see and hear about the game. Shocked to the extent that I'm here, on steam wasting my time writing stuff developers don't care to read.
I'm not talking about cinematic. let's pretend we never saw it. But! THE gameplay video already show lot of disturbing moments.
I happen to know someone who works on the game who was annoyed by the fact that neither the trailer nor the gameplay reveal seems to do justice to the story. Obviously this is secondhand since I haven't played it myself and someone who worked on the game is obviously going to be biased but based on what I have heard and the lack of microtransactions, I think that story is a priority this time around...
That doesn't mean it will be good of course but at the very least, we should wait for it to come out before assuming it will be bad.
I agree that a good honest game should be the norm... which unfortunately it isn't. As for being shocked, all I can say is that the devs and the marketing team are completely different people.
The devs are gamers who loved games so much they became devs (I know someone who played Mass Effect, Jade Empire etc. as a kid who works on this project now.)
Marketers are one of the three character types in Cyberpunk and I don't mean the nomad or the street kid. As a result, it's possible for a good game to end up looking like corporatist slop in the marketing.
Need to see more advanced gameplay with the pause wheel in full use (and see if we are truly limited or if we can freely switch out skills in combat), and I need to see warrior and mage gameplay before I get truly hyped.
As Luke Stephens says, hype makes you stupid. However, as I've seen with some other recent games which got a lot of undeserved preemptive criticism from triggered keyboard warriors (no Hogwarts Legacy is NOT antisemitic) hate makes you stupider.
I'll be very happy if people wait for the game to come out and make up their minds then.
While waiting I am playing through DA:I, it is a good way to get back into the lore and the story.
Hope that we won't have to wait too long before it comes out.
We as potential customers are to make our purchase decisions over marketing. And this looks nothing like Dragon Age. It's a dark fantasy world not high fantasy.
The game has a whooping 3 abilities you can use at a time in a "RPG", one in which you have no control over your stats. The gameplay reveil showed how boring the gameplay was.
Where character's sexuality is more important then their backstories.
I've been playing this franchise since it was released in Nov of 2009, that's 15 years.
To say this is a massive disappointment is the understatement of the century.

You just made that up yourself.
Anyone who mouses over your name and clicks "view posts" can see that you spend your time posting about identity politics, usually in the forums for games you haven't even played.
You literally said that another game is "racist" because of an unproven rumor that the devs changed their mind about the race of a NEW fictional character before said character was even shown to the public.
You simply aren't fair-minded or reasonable; you're an ACTIVIST from the "DEI-detected group which posts bad faith reviews for games that haven't even come out yet.
You do the same. Pot meet kettle.
You quite literally go from upcoming flop to upcoming flop.
Saying people should "consume product & get excited for new product."
And if you look I've been in this forum off & on since Dreadwolf was added here, & more so after they changed it.
No, I tell people not to attack games they don't even own (which is what you do) and to wait for games to come out before jumping to conclusions.
You can't point to a single case of my calling a game "racist", much less a game I haven't played like the games you are attacking.
I don't I pointed out you were acting like a child, argue in bad faith & use ad hominem whenever you don't have an argument like now.
Where you kept trying to twist the narrative of Flintlock to a success.(it wasn't)
Like FFS you immediately ran to my profile for ad hominem again.
I can understand what you are saying from what we have gotten so far.
Hence, for me at least, I need to see more advanced combat. The devs stated on a twitter/X post that you could freely switch out your abilities from the pause wheel, but I want to know if we can do this in the middle of combat or only limited to outside of combat. I really hope we are not limited to a controllers limited button options for all our abilities/spells... but I need to wait and see before I make a decision. What is the point of having tons of options if you tie my hands and limit my choices? Limiting player choice is always a bad idea in terms of mechanics. Let me be able to use all my tools when I want!
I don't really care about the sexual orientations all that much in a Dragon Age game. Since DA: Origins they have been very open and flexible. What I would hate is if a character's sexuality 'defines' the character and every conversation would just revolve around it and how it affects them since they are w/e orientation. Make their actions and morals define the character.
