Having systems to prevent the issue where all the items you find are too low level and therefore useless is a great idea. Assuming these systems work well.

This all looks a lot better than i thought it was gonna be. Being able to even add enchantments to abilities is very interesting.

I wish to regain consciousness on the eve of Halloween. Time is so cruel.

[revanscript]

Ok, this looks better than yesterday's IGN gameplay

[death]

I appreciate that they are bringing back of finishers for some kills.

Wait, you can only have 4 Abilities active at the time?
We had 8 in DAI right? And now they have halved it again?
I remember when we had... basically unlimited in DAO. FeelsBadMan.

This was a nice look at the system. Definitely has me thinking about a build for my first Rook.

[SaraPopovic]

I have never been quicker to check all socials for the updates on this game. Suspense real

[AlasseaCarnesir]

OK, this video right here was very much needed. The explanations were more in-depth with examples and visual aid. Combat/Upgrades now make more sense to me so thank you and I appreciate that you released this. Gamers like myself can struggle to understand a combat system, especially a new one just from watching Combat Gameplay so taking the time to fully explain like this is great and very much appreciated from this gamer.

Dunno how to feel about this game, it genuinely feels like it has an identity crisis for some reason. It seems like it will be alright game, just not a dragon age game, but hopefully I'm wrong and the studio can stuck the landing.

These progression systems seem nice if they’re not too grindy.

Hope we get to see the CC and some more optimized mage gameplay before release.

I've gotta admit... The last few showcases have not given much hope for the new combat. However these progression videos did the opposite. They are well done and the voice over is great. Loving it so far. Don't let the haters discourage. However, at the same time... I hope follow on showcases do a better job than previous! Much love! 😊

[unaccidentally]

i'm gonna miss inquisition-style trinketing, i guess. oh well, hope story doesn't disappoint

[theduckquacksloudly]

So are companions just never at risk of going down? I’m not seeing any HP or defense values for them. This is looking like it doesn’t play at all like a Dragon Age game.

[raneilpalana]

All this strategy talk about team building and here's me who's gonna bring whoever I'm romancing throughout my entire playthrough.

[anasshahid]

After a decade we will return to Thedas in Dragon Age The Veilguard!! So excited👏👏👏👏🐉😊

[CrazyxEnigma]

These progression videos have done a good job of showing the systems off. I was pretty skeptical going in especially after thst blunder of a first trailer but I've come around to liking the majority of what's been shown.

[xlDrKXl]

I can't get past how they have even less active abilities than DA3. The streamlining is going a little too far for me.

[mattsonepiece]

Bro this blows Tuesday’s gameplay out the water. Nvm the skill progression, the visuals alone look soooo much better

[OldManMigs]

I’m glad there’s so many ways to augment your play. There’s clearly only a handful of abilities active at a time so it seems cool that you get customize each one with new effects, upgrades, power, etc.

[NMac]

I’m really excited for this game. DA:Inquisition is one of my favorite games ever so I’ve been waiting 10 years for this. The combat and systems shown here look pretty polished.
