    I'm looking at Veilguard and hoping that they didn't derail the game too hard after BG3's success. I just want Dragon Age to be its own thing and moving away from big pillars of worldbuilding like blood magic reeks of trying to be more mainstream fantasy

      Speaking as somebody who used to live within visual range of BioWare's headquarters: don't get your hopes up. The "studio" has been swirling the toilet ever since the back half of Dragon Age 2 (and most of its ALREADY MADE DLC!) got "scrapped", then turned into Inquisition.

      It's just EA now.

        Ooof. I thought that was the case around the time of Anthem and the uptick of Dragon Age content after that time.

        I guess it's on me to hold out hope like that.

      Sadly they didn't chase the BG3 success, they actually chase the TW3 success and made the game action RPG.
