Read this post and cried a little because it sums up why I dislike Veilguard so much and why I don’t think I will ever get over it. It’s been deleted from my PS5 while I play other games (Cyberpunk 2077 is my life rn)

Every time I think to myself, ‘let’s finish your canon run of Veilguard, I’m in the mood to play!’ I see shit like this and I don’t even want to touch it. #veilguardcritical

Winnow's Tranquilizer
See my other post on the Fanpanion Winnow to read their backstory!

I think what bothers me so much about DA Veilguard is that I invested a lot of love and thought and creativity into that universe and its intricacies and Veilguard feels like a slap in the face saying “oh you cared about the lore? lol, we don’t.” #veilguardcritical
DATV - Fanpanion!
Winnow - the half-tranquil, preteen editor and charge of Varric Tethras with insight into demons and a talent for stealth.

Hmmm idwt to sound self centered lmao but I don't have any issue with lucanis x Neve whatsoever except they got SO much banter in my parties it was all anyone was talking about for a bit but no one talked about my rook and davrin 😭
"Oh, but they had to reboot DATV in 2022"
Skill issue. DA2 was made in 16 months.

A few spoiler free thoughts about DA Veilguard. 🧵#daveilguard #veilguardcritical
To state it out front: I‘m still not done (I reckon about 3/4 in) and no, at the moment, I wouldn‘t recommend it - or only under specific conditions.
„The companions have 20min of banter more than in other DA games, sob the writing can’t be bad“ sure is a take.

another gameplay criticism I have is level design; specifically the last 2 maps/levels... We're racing to fight the final boss, we have an op companion beside us, we (should) have maxed gear, WHY ON EARTH ARE THERE CHESTS TO LOOT?!!! #veilguardspoilers #veilguardcritical
It's a solid action RPG fro a technical aspect, and remarkably bug-free, which is not always a given nowadays. But while the writing shines in certain instances, the majority of it is blatantly mediocre. I've never seen a game that deals so cowardly with it's own lore. #Veilguard #Veilguardcritical
#Veilguard was incredibly fun during my first run, but the more I think about certain decisions and writing choices, the angrier I get at the incredible waste of potential and the way they gutted their own world, removing almost all complexity from it. 🙈

Review of a game I desperately wanted to love and ended up loathing.

They could have made them interesting and controversial, instead they feel like a parody of old Zorro movies, and the game trying to convince me they should be in charge of Antiva? Those child-trafficking murderers? Nope. Save your own city, I'm out. 🤷

Dear god, meeting the Inquisitor in Veilguard is absolutely as terrible as I thought it would be. This NPC has absolutely nothing to do with my former OC. I wish they'd stop trying to blandly canonize a former player character, it turns out terrible every time... #Averyplays #VeilguardCritical
I enjoy this game but it's... sort of superficial in almost all aspects. Don't get me wrong, I am having fun playing it but it's probably best described as the "popcorn cinema" of gaming. There is just no feeling of narrative or mechanical depth. #Veilguard #VeilguardCritical
I really enjoy the combat and the story is interesting enough, but man, the writing feels like I'm playing Elmo's first video game.
#Averyplays #VeilguardCritical
If I may get on critical thought off my chest: The writing of Veilguard feels like the sanitization and purity wave in fandom has reached the writers room to me.

Ok, maybe I will after all, bc I am a yapper. But not right away and I'll tag it #VeilguardCritical so if you don't want to see it, please mute that tag. (I'll repost this a few times so people ca see)
