As a long time fan - it was fine. It was just… fine. People rage against it but gamers rage against everything. It’s not Inquisition. Inquisition is the best IMO personally. However, Veilguard was worth playing, I think it wrapped up the story fine, I thought the ending did do a fair job wrapping up all of those loose ends, I feel like it ended the story. However, it came out closer to Assassin’s Creed in terms of my personal fun level. If horrible is Anthem and Top level is RDR2, it came out at Assassin’s creed.
So yeah, pick it up on sale. I’d say it was a solid $40 game.
As one who played every Dragon Age game, this expresses much of how I feel as well.
After such a long wait I wanted another Origins or Inquisition, but I got something else and it was a fine, forgettable, C+ entry. A game that wants you to wave a giant foam finger instead have thoughtful choices, but at least it delivered an ending.
I’m glad you shared that because if I go online people think I’m crazy for liking it. I thought the ending was good too, I liked that it wrapped up questions that I’ve had since origins in a way that felt honorable to the original game. The game and characters however were flat, but I’d vastly prefer knowing the ending to them never finishing the story
Gamers raged because there was a trans person in it or something and Steve Bannon created a circle pit of stupidity that made the word “gamer” synonymous with “worst loser in the fucking world.”
