re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard - Official Release Date Trailer

See my response to sicboy above about why yes I want this game and others like it who are essentially doing nothing but desecrating the corpse of once loved franchise to fail and fail so badly it’s unable to be waved away. It’s not for a pessimistic reasons ir because I want gaming to heal

All this from one trailer

All of this from the past 6-7 years


You’re welcome to make that assumption. Because you’d be correct that a lot of the problems stem from those hiring practices and the people they’ve allowed into their companies. Idk why this is so hard to comprehend for people. It’s not even hard to comprehend it logically. When you go through a period of mass hiring people industry wide, many who have no interest at in actually video games nor do they play them, who are above all else activist first and alway will be then the product will inevitably be worse in all ways. The writing is worse, the women are all uglier than the ps3 generation, almost no one is innovative anymore or pushing the industry forward because again, that isn’t their goal. Making good games for gamers to enjoy is not why they’re there. In fact many many of them are quite open about how they hate gamers.

Look I harp on the political reasons games are in an absolute terrible state in a general sense (don’t misunderstand me though there are still good and even great games that release) because it’s by far the most glaringly obvious problem and should be the easiest to fix. There’s other factors as well of course nothing is almost every a single factor outcome.

I typed in "Dragon Age" in the Twitter search bar and "Dragon Age Impressions" into Google and I'm literally not seeing much, if any, negative responses. The only reason I know there's some push back on the look of it is because of this board.

I'm sure if I was doom scrolling for it I would find something, but I've learned over the years that if you're constantly looking for something to be upset about, you're going to be a miserable person.

It's fine to say the game looks bad. We're all entitled to our opinion. But to call it a guaranteed failure based on a release date trailer is just silly. But, hey, that's the world we live in now. Hyperbole is fact.

You're something. It's rare to see people so spun up about their video game opinions.

Your reality is just that, your reality, which is an opinion. And no one is making any claims about it being a failure or a success except you.

You're missing the point we're trying to make.

No. That’s a post modern philosophical idea that’s one of the most dumb things anyone has ever thought up. There’s no my truth or your truth. There’s no my reality or your reality. There’s just the truth and reality and the ability to make future predictions and assumptions based on evidence applicable to the discussion that is undeniable and exists in reality that points to this being an embarrassing failure.

You're making an assumption. I didn't search "what does IGN think of DA" If you understand how twitter works, it pulls up anybody on their with an account who's taking about the game, not just the big outlets.

Again, you're desperate to be right about this game failing,

This entire discussion is so far above your head you should likely bow out of it. The only other option is you’re intentionally misrepresenting what I’m talking about in a motte and Bailey logical fallacy which is extremely common among post modernist so I wouldn’t doubt it.

At least I know for a fact sicboy knows what is being discussed both on the lower level being video games and on the higher philosophical leve which is why I respect him
