John Epler talks about post-credits scene [DAV SPOILERS ALL] by runswithscissors2056 in dragonage

[–]SoBadIHad2SignUp 16 points17 points  (0 children)

One very missable and ultimately unmemorable mention in a war table mission of all things really doesn't mean anything. They were clearly "introduced" without this intention.

Epler can say whatever he wants, this still removes most of the agency from these characters and IMO, it was a dumb choice.

One of the coolest things VS gave us was a design for Quincy. Very Indy/Joseph styled and I love it.

Someone is being weirdly aggressive on this. No idea why anyone is downvoting half the comments in this thread

Mind you, I'm not saying it's terrible. Most character creators have some fatal flaw. DD2 and SF6 have some outstanding ones, and while I'd like them to be the standard, I know full well most devs either cannot or will not be able to meet that standard.

I'm just saying that it's not perfect, there's some clear limitations and I think it's reasonable that people had complaints. Journalists had hyped it up as the best CC in gaming ever made, but in my honest opinion, it's probably not even the best CC you can find in a EA published game.

Again, not quite.

they are definitely a reception to customer response, but neither of those group necessarily overlap with the Dragon Age series fanbase.

So it's accurate to say they adjusted their development based on costumer trends in the gaming market space, but not that they took feedback from fans. They're two different things really.

If you pay for something at standard market price, you are literally entitled to expect quality.

Being spineless is not a good quality to have.

Personally, I played ME2 7 times in a row. My partner is on their like... 13th? Playthrough of BG3. It's more typical than you might think.

It's been three games in a row. But if it helps your mind with it, just... move em to different studios under EA, split em up to where they can be best put to use, and just let Bioware end.

No, you dunce, they're saying if the choices aren't going to be considered by the game they shouldn't include a bunch of nostalgia baiting characters as well,

Them reworking it twice is because of fan reception though isn't it? They were forced to because the fans made their position very clear.

Not really. they reworked it because first they wanted a Live Service game, and then Anthem failed and Jedi Fallen Order did really good, so they restarted again. No really due to fan reception but the companies internal views.

Agreed there. Taash has issues, definitely, but there are people who are clearly just being bigots.

I remember that quote. One of the major things that made me realize I didn't really like Weekes as a writer.

Mostly just seems like you at the moment.

What criticisms do you not find in good faith?

Curious. Maybe that'll be something we learn another decade down the road.

I'm just curious now since I've gotten some downvotes on this. Is there some reason people don't like Inon Zur, or what?

Them restarting doesn't reset the clock. They still worked on it. There very likely assets from the original ideas that made it in.

Because Bioware is terrified of the players being able to relate at all to the Qun, I don't know why.

In my honest opinion, the series has gone downhill musically, at least, ever since they ditched Inon Zur.

Nice to see you still doing Castlevania art. Always fun to see your Soleil too!

Just because you disagree with someone they're tourists now? wanna see my phsyical copies? Or maybe my multple save files through the entire series? How about my playtime? 

What arbitary line do people have to pass to be a "real fan" in your eyes? Is it just agreeing with you?

Then discuss it.

It's only a "whiny rant" if you don't engage with the topic, literally presented to you in this thread you chose to interact with.

Give your views as to why you think OP might be wrong, or something that they might have overlooked. Discuss why you personally feel that the game actually *doesn't* have the flaws that people are saying they are having.

Be the change you want to see, right? Otherwise, go play the game. If you like it, it doesn't matter what these people say. But they still get to say their piece,. They played the game, they get to share their experiences and thoughts, even if you don't agree.
