Just imagine what could have been. If we got the Dragon Age 4 that we wanted. Something that took the best things from the first three games and stayed true to the franchise in every way. God, I hate the Shit Age that is our current reality. |
You mean Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age: Origins - The Awakening and Dragon Age Inquisition as the three games, right?

I'm inclined to believe that we will not see Dragon Age in the immediate future (even a 10 year span) until at some point down the road they go, oh we can pull this out for Nostalgia and people might get their kids into it. 20 years maybe. Unless it's a Remake of Origins whoch would actually sell, I would reckon, albeit they'll probably go the FF7 route, screw it up and people will be pissed. |
It was a 10 year gap between Inquisition (2014) and Veilguard (2024) anyway.
Honestly I would just like a remake of Dragon Age: Origins and an update to Inquisition to add 4k support to Xbox and Playstation.

Everyone says they want a remake of Origins but it was easily the worst in the series for me. Inquisition still hold up perfectly well to this day so I’d love to see a remaster of DA2 if anything. I loved DA2 back when it released. We should definitely see a ME4, but if peoples opinion on it is from looking at memes on r/gamingcirclejerk than actually playing it consider is DOA. DA4 being a good game (minus the writing) is a hill I’ll happily die on and seeing as it seems I’m the only one who’s played it on this site, it’s a hill I’ll die on alone 🤣 |
Origins was incredible.
Every "class" had it's own unique start story line.
Origins also had Alistair and Morrigan who were absolutely charismatic and hilarious together, you could tell the actors were enjoying their roles.
And the story had a "bigger than me" story. - Something that was lost in Dragon Age 2.
The combat also required far more strategy, which harkens back to Baldurs Gate, Arcanum, Neverwinter Nights, Planescape Torment, Icewind Dale and more, which I really enjoyed.
Dragon Age 2 was terrible, minus a few highlights with characters. - I.E. Varric.
Dragon Age: Inquisition had some really good world building and it was a pretty game on release, shame the maps were huge and the combat was dumbed down for more casual/console audiences.
And Veilguard? I enjoyed the dynamic between Solas and Varric, it was a good conclusion to those stories, but visually it wasn't a 10~ year leap over Inquisition, not on PC anyway and there were a lot of niggles. It was a "good" game, just not a genre defining "great" game... And the same issues that plagued Inquisition still existed. I.E. Dumbed down combat to appeal to console gamers/casuals.
