Dreadwolf: I am still hoping

Hello everyone, 

Yes I am one of the sad people who think that Veilguard is no Dragon Age, hear me out... 

The Dragon-Age Lover that I am bought myself merch of Veilguard anyways? Why? Because it is Dragon Age and I am still hoping. What would stand inbetween having Veilguard for whoever likes that AND DreadWolf as an alternative Timeline. 

I have the Artbook and saw all the plans originally for Dreadwolf and I sit there and just keep saying "I want to play that game!" And get sad about to what it was reduced to. I do not care that Veilguard and Dreadwolf possibly has a similar ending chapter. So be it.

But for Dreadwolf? I'd love that game, some of the stuff I had seen in the Artbooks, much more story, much more gameplay, much deeper Characters, so much time to explore and enjoy Thedas. I dig that. 

I've played Origins through almost two dozend times (still praying for that remake), Dragon Age 2 I play that every now and then just for fun, just because I can, I have around 1000+ hours in Inquisition I play it on PC and PS4. I love them.

Unfortunatelly, as much as I apprechiate the developers trying to make us happy with Veilguard, it does not feel like Dragon Age. Solid game, played it through twice. Solid game - good work devs. But not a Dragon Age, it made me miss Dragon Age while playing it. (I started a full run through all the Dragon Age games again because it teased just enough Dragon Age to miss the actual DA games.)

I would love for a game where the keep actually mattered. I still look the videos from the DA Keep listening to Varric telling the story of our world. I love it, and I doubt I would be the only person that would love to play what was planned in Dreadwolf.

So #PleaseGiveUsDADreadwolf ???

Thanks to everyone who read that far.

  • I never was a DA fan, only enjoying the games and perhaps this is why I have no idea what means "a Dragon Age game". But to reject a game only because is called Veilguard and not Dreadwolf seems a bit out. I've seen same unjustified rejection about Mass Effect Andromeda and almost missed that game because of that. Well, I see Andromeda as an excellent game - a new chapter in Mass Effect just as well as I see the Veilguard as new chapter in Dragon Age. Even more so, the Veilguard is a nice way to say farewell to first 3 games, offering a closure as you lose the connections with those and open up the new field, new stories, new characters. 

    I'm asking as simple player, what is the definition of Dradon Age Game? How can you identify one and how to exclude the fake? What is in DAtV which is not part of DA or better said, what is missing (aside the Keep)?

  • I would prefer the end of Dragon Age franchise because they are many rivals in the same genre which are much more popular.

    BioWare could extend the Mass Effect franchise. I would like a spin-off inspired by SWTOR about the events before Mass Effect trilogy.

    I think the studio did better sci-fi games than dark fantasy games.
