The new trailer is a lot better than the reveal trailer. This new trailer is what the reveal trailer should have been. The graphics are a step up from Inquisition especially the hair. The hair physic is looking so much better than past entries.

Looking forward to playing this. Was hoping for early October but oh well.

Did you show the Darkness what Light can do?

Everything is purple…. that trailer also kinda lame. I don’t see the excitement. Art direction sucks and it doesn’t do the narrative hype any favors.

Expectations extremely low.

Yup, barely looks like a step up from Inquistion and last gen.

I have a feeling they just threw this together with fan team of blue haired devs in a year and we’re likely to get the biggest turd BioWare has made yet.

So many red flags. Or should I say purple. Betting on 60 meta.



Also, what’s this in Dragon Age? If I’ve been they’re before I don’t remember much from Inquisition.

Looks very much like savathun’s throne world from witch Queen

Lol this game shot up in pre-order sales to the top 20 on the overall sales list, I wont buy it as the series has only 1 good game and the people making it are weirdos but holy shit ubisoft should take notes from these guys as outlaws lags behind this game which doesn't release for another 2 months

Eh, I wouldn’t interpret it like that. Official release date announce is when a lot of pre-orders go live.

And usually those lists are tracking what’s hot for the week or day and it’s not some cumulative total.

I don’t care if either game does well or not. I just wouldn’t make that assumption from data at this point.

It won game of the year last time. I wonder if it can repeat it

The point is I have never seen outlaws that high since the pre-orders started. On PC the game will be a bust and it remains to be seen on console on how well it will do

Star Wars is in steep decline. Only the games are doing good for the brand. Outlaws sorts has to punch upwards imo.

But you’ve seen it consistently chart week after week. Like I said, if what you’re seeing is just weekly snapshots… the cumulative total could still be substantial.

Ubisoft sells like 10 million asscreed copies a year. Can’t say they need to learn anything from EA at the moment.

Dragon Age has hype from fans starving for like a decade now. It’s good for something too.

I'm placing a bet that this will be yet another game that gets sky-high mainstream reviews and then tanks hard.


We should call it the "Reverse Stellar Blade".

60MC/OC for a big project means it's broken as fuck and its ideas and game design are poor as well, I don't see that happening. My guess is that it'll land in mid 80s like DA Origins and DA:I, perhaps low 80s.


Also, what’s this in Dragon Age? If I’ve been they’re before I don’t remember much from Inquisition.

It's Minthratous the Capital City of the Tevinter Imperium which is the oldest human nation ruled by Mages.
We've never been in there in the games, always been in the south/south east of the continent.
Here's the Thedas page with maps:

They've certainly screwed up the initial reveal, which was a dumb idea for a SP game.
Nobody, and I mean nobody, wanted a companion introduction of a SP game that looked and sounded like a Hero Shooter "funny" introduction montage. I also think that showing the first gameplay bit of the game with a 10-15 minutes presentation as a level 1 with nothing unlocked was supremely stupid. All people saw was auto attacks and dodges, like what?

We'll see how their marketing blitz of the next few weeks will do in terms of pre-sales metrics.
Tbh, EA/Bioware have always kind of fumbled the marketing for Dragon Age if I think back at some of the rollouts back the day.I still remember this beauty.


Yeah this definately fits the vibe of what we got, lmaoooo.
