What caught my attention from the gameplay trailer was:
1) You get all the aggro. Companions do not have health bars, maybe because of the level but the MC was the only one attacked
2) Companions do 10% of the damage you do
3) Skills have 30-40+ sec cooldowns meaning 90% of the time you will be spamming the same light/ heavy attack which will get repetitive
4) Having 3 skills only on the bar is kinda like the devs saying: "You are intended to play rouge and look at the same jumpy animations, but hey, backflips, dropkicks and dodge, heh?". Again left mouse click 90% of the time with no strategy. Imagine mage with 3 skills only...
5) Being able to cast 3 skills at a time from the 3 characters with "additional effect" most likely +20% damage or freeze for 3-4 secs, when the skill cooldwon is 56 secs is not "strategy".
6) Graphics changed quality on multiple occassions and the cutscence have a "blurry" effect with darker colors, maybe to try and make the scenery and setting "darker"
7) Only 2 companions with you and 7 overall in the group. It looks like Varric will be NPC only. Not being able to control companions just means that they are restricted to light attack and those 3 skills, which is again, no strategy at all.
8) The gameplay was for level 1 rouge so this is most likely the 2nd or 3rd mission you do after tutorial. That is most likely why they changed the name of the game because Solas will be disposed/ removed/ disappear/ sacrifice himself in the first chapter and after that there will be total different "villian", thus they do not want to "sell" the game based on incorrect information.

Hopefully this is not the case and the game is good. I am a big dragon age fan, but for the first time in my life I feel that the game will not be good, before even playing it. They were slowly trying to change the tactics system to more action packed since DA2 and now they finally did it, but at what cost. This looks like Dragon Dogma with Fortnite skins and 1/2 companions from previous games to call it DA. This does not have any DA authenticity. It looks more like Mass Affect Andromeda than DA. I am overall dissapointed.

Darkspawn look goofy as hell now. They didn't looked good in Inquisition already but now they peaked in the goof factor. I prefered how they looked in DA2 and Origins. Also I hope Pride Demons will also be encountered as a more complete creatures. I don't mind that floaty one as a variant but the older ones simply looked better.

You were indeed reading the "strand system" part wrong.
Its not your CHARACTER that is effected by this system, ots your characters HAIR.
It makes the HAIR react more realistically with various effects, almost as if they individually programmed each STRAND OF HAIR.
So, for example, a wind is blowing a characters ponytail, it wont Clip into the Head of the model, or through armors...

Thats right... they made an entire Program for BETTER HAIR PHYSICS...

[redcriminal]

Da2+Mass Effect Hybrid and I'm all here for it. Inquisition was a good Da game but people complained about that anyway and that was old Bioware.

4:21 pause, quoting the 2nd half of the screenshot article: "even mages could have an assassin backstory (Antivan Crows) that would need melee attacks accommodating that career path"
this means your selected backstory directly gives different starting skills for your class.
Example, Rook as rogue class in the gameplay reveal had Shadow Dragons backstory, which is of tevinter mage ruled origin faction. this explains why a Rogue was able to use lightning attacks like that "Static Strikes" line aoe debuff, it was tevinter based electric enhancements for their daggers, not a spell exactly.

The game might be really good but the marketing did a terrible job with the gameplay they showed as a 1st impression. Looked like little depth and should’ve shown a variety of environments, terrible 1st impression

[sidra_games]

I think the combination of a lack of world/exploration and the inablity to switch between party members might make this a no go for me...which breaks my heart.

[NARUTOnemesis]

I just dont see it man. Might be best for me to just completely ignore news for this until it's closer to release. It's weird for me having zero excitement for a bioware game but there are just too many amazing games releasing and out right now that have captured my attention that I want to play. If it were to come out right now I still wouldn't consider it. Not sure if that's a testament to how amazing games are getting or if Vailguard is just falling short. Hoping for the best but we'll see.

[federicoluciano]

Can you only carry 3 skills? Companions only have 2 skills with 40 seconds of CD? that sounds horrible

[karlmurphy]

You don't control your companions? It looks like the game fights itself with you in the middle. I'm a bit nervous 😬

[DamnTheBeavers]

i don't get it..you have only 3 abilities that can be upgraded into more powerful samey ones?

[Makoto]

Thank you for the additional info on Dragon Age Veilguard. The gameplay looks amazing and excited to hear about the customization options.

[peppercat]

it would be cool if all the past companions n protags appeared in one game

[sofajockeyUK]

I'm totally not missing the tactical camera. I understand only a fraction of Inquisition players used it.

[gregorysgarrison]

I'll definitely play the game. But not at all thrilled by the more hack/slash style battle system. Those games bore me to death.

[AChanceOfReign]

The one thing I absolutely hope for is better designed weapons and armor. I swear, DA has had the worst time when it comes to equipment appearance - some look amazing while everything else look awful and unwieldy.

[HenryHeimlich]

Dunno... much like the Bloodlines 2 videos I have been seeing, this Dragon Age gameplay reveal just makes me miss Origins and want to play it again instead of bother with this. It is sad that Baldur's Gate 3 feels more like a Dragon Age sequel to me than any of the other Dragon Age games...

[actualtiramisu]

I'm excited about how the story is gonna go down. A lot of Solas fans have been waiting for this moment. I mostly play for the story, but I also need closure 😅

[Valakor]

Im super excited, ive looked at all the bad stuff i can possibly find, and im still seeing more fun than not. I get its not for everyone, but no game is

[ohioedwardsable]

My only issue is that they're taking out open world exploration. In a new area and we can't even look around?
