Dragon Age: The Veilguard - A RPG Written Like a Disney Movie

Video Description

I explore Dragon Age's lore, gameplay, and the challenges it faces in a gaming industry increasingly dominated by formulaic, Marvel inspired trends. I try and see how The Veilguard compares to BioWare's past titles, including Dragon Age: Origins and Inquisition. I examine whether AAA developers are sacrificing originality for blockbuster appeal and how this affects fan-favorite franchises like Dragon Age. I critique and review several aspects of the game including gameplay and writing. If you're a fan of Dragon Age, BioWare, or passionate about the state of modern gaming, hopefully this analysis is relevant to you.
