I've settled, changing my stance to not playing it at all. Seems all the points I want from a Dragon age game, they fucked up. Really not gone on the Disney feel of it and if it's the last third that's the most enjoyable story wise I just don't see myself giving it time. Too many games to play and too little time to play something mediocre that pays off at the end.

This post proves you're not a man. So what does that make you?

G'lord man. This is a game review thread. What are you at. 

The game is apparently a 93 on Xbox Series X. God I hate Metacritic.

Series X only has 5 reviews though lol not a good aggregate to form an opinion. 

This.... I'm waiting for the player base feedback, and the user scores.
I don't believe (or rather trust) alot of these reviewers that use pronounes stuff, and wave their flags around.

"It has DEI... omg 10 out 10, best game ever!"

When its a broken mess, with horrible game play and story.

Nope... waiting on user feedback.


Look at something like Star Wars Outlaws, its currently at 7,5 out of 10.
But early reviews were higher than its current score. 
It has way to many 9 and 10 scores, for the quality it has, by reviewers.

I'm honestly leaning that way too or at least on a very steep discount. I've seen some cartoony stuff from this game and the narrative looks all over the place and the RPG elements are really watered down lol. Giving it a Disney feel seems accurate. BioWare seemed to have gone to appeal to broadest type of gaming demographic possible with this one rather than focusing on the studios strengths that made them such an industry powerhouse. 

Speaking as someone who noticed EA's cagey attitude with Veilguard's review codes, I think it's only going to go down from there.  Something was off about that from the start.

atm it sits at 84 in Metacritic (PS5 version) with 50 reviews taken into account, so its got generally good reviews. The mid 80s is kinda what I expected to begin with, so atm my expectations are being met as far as critical reception goes.

Regardless of the reviews imma play it. Ive been looking to something new from this franchise for a while now.

The thing is they were very selective about who they gave review codes to apparently.
Anyone that seemed skeptical, or against too much DEI, was not given codes or time to do a review early.
So all the scores we see atm, are from "yes people", that were selected to give high score reviews.

Once it has had some more time, for reviewers that didn't merit a review code, giving reviews... it will drop lower than it is.
At least that's my thinking.

Basically this:
