It was my most anticipated goty and it became the biggest gaming disappointment of my life. I had never regretted a purchase until veilguard. I thought it was the chud media exaggerating as always, but for once they were right.

Game is overall decent, but the characters, story and dialogue really are as bad people were saying. There is no real writing...just words describing whatever is on screen in the simplest of terms. Characters act and speak like kids and the game talks down on you like you're dumb. Villain feels taken out of a power rangers episode and evil acts are greatly dumbed down. Theres no mention of really bad stuff like slaves and your character cant even be mean. It is really Disney dragon age.

Question is...why? What compelled them? Trying to appeal to a wider demographic instead of just the boomers who grew up with dark fantasy? Was it direction from EA or just Bioware? Were they just chasing old trends while gamers moved on to hardcore games like Elden Ring and Baldurs Gate 3? The latter which really seems like the evolution of what people wanted out of a DA game.

Now the game doesnt seem to belling much and its just another self inflicted wound.
