- I can finally talk about it now! I have so much to say, but EA will come and beat me if I do, so... this is all for now.

PSA I have no idea why there is a giant black nothing at the end of this video. Sorry about that
Well, I mean, it matches the big black nothing in our brains when we were in shock at this announcement. :)
Atleast the lore will be on point with you there.
The Sable simply imposes itself, uninvited. There are many theories as to why. Some say it craves the dreams of loretubers.
It's a peek into The Black City! 😉
Did you feel that the character design is off-putting, and if so, did you tell them?
The lore lady got even more lore for us
She's got her own dragon age lore now
yo dawg I hear you love dragon age lore, so we gave the loremaster her own lore about being on the dragon age lore council
Caitie really pulled an "I suspect you have questions" knowing she can't answer them within reason.
She pulled a Solas on us. This is so insane. How’d you get brought into BioWare?
@@GhilDirthalen You can now say you have the same job as Mark Darrah! (t e c h n i c a l l y)
She tore through the veil, thats how
Blood magic?
Diversity checkbox.
@@echo12345ish this reply deserves more props 🤣
LORE LADY HAS BECOME CANON
Best comment by far.
Ghil Dirthalen pulled a Solas on us?! Just Kidding, congratulations, can't think of a better person for the job.
This announcement has cured all of my anxiety about the game. I just took a huge breath of relief.
Same haha
for real
Yeah, they put Scout Harding and a male Qunari in league of legends!! AWESOME!!!😂
Well deserved!! This gave me much more hope than whatever was that trailer.
The trailer scared me. And mark Darrah said for him it is the best trailer they have made for a dragon age game. So i hope at least the lore is in good hands.
That trailer felt like I was watching one of those hero shooters like Overwatch. Absolutely atrocious.
Glad I wasn't the only who didn't love the trailer. Why were they all so cartoony?
@@beastmode-ht8ou I saw someone on the new Fable trailer say this. It's like Fable and Dragon Age switched art styles.
@@beastmode-ht8ouIt feels like everyone is saying they didn't like it. I was hyped because I know it doesn't fully represent what the game will be.
I always thought that it would be insane if Bioware didnt contact you, although I excpected a voice cameo of you in DA4 ;) Congratulations!
I'll at least say I have not recorded anything for the game, haha. Honestly I'm glad they didn't ask, I would be worried anything I do would be shoe'd in and feel awkward, like some other youtuber cameos have been in the past for other games.
THAT IS SO AMAZING!!!!!! I have to say - the tone of the trailer wasn’t what I was hoping for, but I am just pumped to get a new game in the franchise and will hold my judgement until I have it up and running.
Congats!! You're my favorite Dragon Age RUclipsr and I love your videos so knowing you're helping steer things fills me with confidence. I will say this, even thought most people dislike the trailer, I'm still hyped. I'm not letting the negativity get me down! I cant wait for the gameplay trailer!
I’m also going to buy this game. I don’t care about the negative backlash the trailer got. I’m a huge dragon age fan and I even enjoyed Dragon Age 2 and Inquisition.
@@samflood5631Inquisition is actually my favorite Dragon Age game. I love Dragon Age: Origins deeply, don't get me wrong. I played the absolute hell out of that game. But Inquisition will always have a special place in my heart. I know Veilguard will, too. I'm still furious at Bioware's higher ups for getting rid of their hardworking veterans but even those veterans had high praise for this game. I don't trust Bioware but I trust them.
@@lordfickle8900 Let's just hope this game is a success. So far a lot of people are going to make this game out to be a flop. And a lot of them might be right.
@@samflood5631 nothing but a mindless consumer. Shame.
You should actually be quite sceptical if she was supposedly helping steer this ship when what we saw in the trailer is NOT dragon age.
Holy shit!!! This is wild! Honestly just hearing your involved makes me even more confident and excited for the game!
Omg, thats such good news. Not only for you, obviously. But to know that they took the time to find someone knowledgable about all the back lore. Congrats!🎉
What!!!!!! This is so amazing!!! Im so proud of you!!!!!!
Me too. Brilliant news.
I'm glad for you! You put in a lot of hard work over the years.
That said, I can not see this new trailor and feel like it was made for the fans.
This is not the Dragon Age we love. It is an EA live srevice mobile abomination.
Um… extreme hype for Catie! Congrats!!!! (belated I guess?)
Please tell us, is it actually good? The trailer seemed a bit concerning from an art direction. The companions make sense actually (except the void jumper) but the game looks cartooney. I guess we won't really know til Tuesday huh
I wonder whether you can say how much of the feedback that your side had sent were actually been implemented.
Sadly they lost me with that trailer. Been a huge fan since DAO but after all these years of waiting that thing felt like an insult. But still I'm really happy for you!
This, assuming they took all the community feedback to heart, makes me much more optimistic for the game. The title change and newest trailer... not so much
This news brought me such a big smile Caitie, congrats!!! It makes me hopeful for the future of Dragon Age that they're consulting fans who basically write research papers about their world to get everything just right. Can't wait for the release! 🎉
Partially explains why she was so negative on the leaks last year and refused to cover them. She had already seen them and couldn’t legally talk about that, but I always thought it was crazy that after years of radio silence so many creators refused to cover actual gameplay with so many small lore details. It’s because the creators weren’t actually on radio silence like the rest of us 😂
i'm so proud of you for being noticed and apreciated by the game you love and care so much. you are such an amazing content creator for this series. is really well deserved.
What a well-deserved and exciting thing! There is no one I'd rather have be a voice for our community.
The fact that our Lore Lady was able to give them direct feedback about the game makes me feel so much more confident in the story they are going to deliver.
You were the hidden Elvhen Goddess in our midst this whole time! Praise to Ghil Dirthalen!
Congrats Caitie!!!!! I'm so excited for you, and I'm so excited that you were on the council. You're SUCH a great person for that role, and I look forward to hearing more about it!
Wow! What a wonderful opportunity. Amazing what a passion RUclips project could bring to you. Excited to hear your experience!
GIRL CONGRATULATIONS
YOU'RE AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND
im literally so proud of you
Why didn't you tell them to fix the art style??? That would have been my only feedback
The trailer gave the feel like this DA is gonna flop and they will bury the franchise with it. I just hope I'm pessimistic and wrong.
Hopefully they'll Sonic it
I was worried before, and I've given up hope now. It'll take Mass Effect down with it, too.
@@sriley064 Example of the only time bullying has had a positive effect in the world.
After that teaser I may not be confident in the game so far but at least I can know the LORE is safe and sound
Honestly the content wasn't so bad... but where did the shadows go? It looks like someone thanos snapped half the lighting/shading software.
@@TwilitFall it looks like a sunday morning cartoon... my hype just nosedived off a cliff
AMAZING working with fans such as you is probably one of the best decisions Bioware could have made tbh
To learn they had a Community Council is wonderful news! Such Fan and lore fanatic input in the game can only mean good things. I am even more hyped for it than ever now, and any concerns can be waylaid. You cannot really know a game until you've played it, and so to know they did this interjects they are taking the concerns and wishes of the fans seriously. It's more than I can say other companies have been doing.
I saw this video before the trailer and, honestly? This video did a LOT of work getting me excited for it. The devs listening to the hardcore fans is definitely what I was hoping for most.
I am more couis about what lore disscusions came out from the council
YOU HAD LORE THIS WHOLE TIME?! SECRET SECRET LORE!!!!!!!
Wow! Congrats! Look forward to seeing what happened when you give all the details!
Who is the genius at Bioware who thought that using a cartoonish style aimed at 12 years olds to announce DATV was a good idea?
As a consultant tell them no one likes it. (I love your channel )
I’M SO HAPPY FOR YOU CAITIE! 🎉 I can’t wait to hear all about your experience! You 10000% deserve it, and not only am I glad that this council exists, but also feel relieved that you’re apart of it! I’m so excited to play the game and nerd out with everyone! ❤
Congrats, if you're in this it really gives me hope for the game because I really disliked the trailer but you put the smile back in my face, I love your content
Very excited for you!
I have some worry, especially with the trailer they pushed out, but it helps to know someone so passionate about the series was involved to at least some degree.
SOLASMANCERS LET US TRY AND REJOICE IN HOPE
I‘m sorry WHATTT did you say several YEARS?? That’s so awesome but wow how the hell did you keep this from us! Such a Solas move haha💜
That's exciting! The trailer comments look rough but I'm excited for the game!!
Nailed it
It is so frustrating seeing a comment section that thinks Origins is gritty and Veilguard is fortnite, as if the only thing that defines a genre is the colour palatte. Paying no attention to the updated darkspawn designs, the fricken griffon, Harding, Neve, Lucaris, the griffon...
@@LordSusaga Man, it doesn't take a lot to piece it together. The reason why people think that it's because graphics and tone create something people don't like/are tired of. We haven't seen gameplay yet, nor actual story beats with different tones but most people in the world are extremely emotionally driven, which is to say, they saw a trailer with cartoony graphics(Which by itself is not bad, case in point:Dishonored, Bioshock) with quippy humor, which to be fair, was always part of Dragon Age but nowadays Marvel's popularity combined with their excessive use of this style of humor has made people weary of it, therefore their minds are set on it being a Fortnite or Overwatch-esque wannabe.
I don't agree with judging the game before we have even seen what it properly looks like in-game, for all we know that was just a marketing team blunder, but it's not unexpected that people would react that way to such a trailer.
@@Hysorn If people click on a Dragon Age trailer, they should expect to see Dragon Age. That's exactly what they got. People claimed this was a betrayal to the genre because it used to be dark (no it wasn't) and now it's just too quipy (there was, like, one joke, made by the character who tends to make jokes).
You can make whatever judgements you like, but if you need to make shit up to do it, then why are you even talking?
@@LordSusagayou need to learn that people are allowed to have different opinions from you. Just because you think dragon age has always been a goofy game series and it never had a dark vibe dosent mean everyone needs to agree with you or prove to anything to you. Don’t go around asking people “why are you talking” just cause they’re expressing an opinion you don’t like. This is the exact kind of toxic behavior that makes me hate gaming communities.
That's great news! As someone returning to this channel after a couple years its amazing to know your passion for the world remains the same.
Someone put Scout Harding and a male Qunari in Fortnite.
eased my worries a bit after that trailer, i’m still waiting to see gameplay today to tell if it’s going to be up my alley
I’m not happy with the switch of art style…At all. It’s like what Sims 4 did from Sims 3.
That being said, I’m happy for you . At least the lore will be correct.
Oh my god!!!!!! I'm so happy for you. They definitely chose well.
I am very concerned about DA:IV. It has modern looks, but the tone of the trailer has me very concerned. I will withhold further criticism until the gameplay trailer is out, but... I cannot hide my dissatisfaction with the direction of the tone and writing - if that cinematic is indicative of the rest. It might be a spectacle, but I was hoping for some BioWare Substance behind it as well. Time will tell.
So glad you were working with them! I saw the trailer and I’m about to cry! Why does it look like that?!
To know that you have worked on the lore with them truly has boosted my thoughts on what the game will be like ❤ thank you
Congratulations! Nobody could be more qualified to be in the DA community council than the archivist herself! This gives me a lot of renewed hope for the new game! (wish you would've clued us a bit tho)
This makes me so damn happy! How committed you have been through the years with dragon age and are actually apart of it!!! So happy and can’t stress enough how excited I am to continue the dragon age experience with you and your videos!
You have kept me company at work with your amazing videos for the past seven years. CONGRATS!
Eyy, congrats on the official position :D
I'm hoping for a 3rd Volume for the World of THEDAS.
I'm so happy for you! Congratulations and I can't wait to see the videos to come🎉
I'm very happy for you, that's amazing!
I just watched the trailer and... it was something, you know? They say 'something is better than nothing,' right?
I'm pretty sure Dragon Age is a dark fantasy game, but now looks like Fornite/Disney/Pixar? I'm confused, very confused and concerned...
Catie, congratulations! Hope it was an awesome experience, can't wait for your take on the trailer and the game as it comes out!
So happy for you! 🎉 This makes me even more hopeful for the new game if they have people like you behind the scenes❤
Couldn't have a better little lore bean for the council, Caitie!
I love this for you! cant wait to hear about it!
I hope they keep updating the Tapestry or even add the tapestry to the upcoming games main menu.
Wow! What an honor. Love that for you
While this is absolutely a surprise to hear about nothing about it is surprising. With all the effort you've put in as a lore keeper basically of course Bioware sought you out. Still congratulations! This is awesome
congratulations!!! well deserved honour! looking forward to whatever you can tell us about your experience
Awesome! It gives me hope for the upcoming game to hear they are communicating with knowledgeable fans like you. Thank you for your service :)
Congrats! That must be a great opportunity. To be honest that does worry me a little bit on the authenticity of the content that you will be putting out, mainly your thoughts about the game, its direction and looks. Personally I value and enjoy hearing your opinions and feelings on past dragon age content, how much of that could potentially be more swayed from now on?.
Regardless congrats again! Your videos are always great to watch and the coverage of lore stuff has always been super informational and interesting:)
Edit: Apologies if my tone is off or offensive, English isn't my first language
This is such amazing news! I’ve watched you and Split the Veil for years, I’m so excited for the new game, this news makes me even more excited! Congratulations!
oooooh new icon! adding that to my conspiracy board now XD thanks for all your lore vids and congrats!
This was a bigger reveal than the actual reveal.
*This* reveal made me happy. The actual reveal trailer, not so much. :/
This makes me a LOT less scared of what we might get.
I'm still scared, but this gives me hope.
Thank you!!!
Congratulations on being on the community council. Looking forward to your thoughts on the Veilguard trailer...
Now I know who to blame for that trailer.
Congrats on being on the Council!!!! Very Exciting!
NO WAAY so happy for you! hope it was a great experience to work with them
Congratulations! 🎉 Good to know that you were consulted for the lore❤
Ghil Dirthalen thank you for sharing your involvement. That's so cool. I see you've changed your channel icon's vallaslin to what looks like the headcrest of one of DAVs new big bads. 😉 I'm really looking forward to see how close the fandom's speculation of Ghilan'nain fits the new game's lore. Regardless of accuracy it's so exciting.
the way I squealed! I am so happy for you, that's like the best crossover ever!
Hey does anybody know how to get into the discord? I would love to join but I think I missed the window 😢
Imposter!! We thought you we re one of us !!
Joking, so happy for you and what a great choice for the community council, this brings me joy and reassurance
Amazing!! This is fantastic.
Also I saw this pop up in my subscriptions, briefly forgot I was already subscribed, and tried to subscribe again 😂 I'm here for all your content!
I've been binging DA videos this month so I don't remember if I was watching a recent video or an older one of yours, but I remember you mentioning that you gave a bit of lore feedback to an employee via email a while ago? And that you were very open to doing more of the same in the future, but you likely wouldn't be able to share anything about it because of NDAs. This feels very full circle lmao
Knowing you worked in this exponentially increases my faith in this game.
Well I very sincerely hope the game is better than that trailer implies.
OMG WHAT?! THAT IS EPIC!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ I’m so excited for you!!! This is such awesome news, congrats on the wonderful job!!!!
Well holy shit! Congratulations :D
People, the art style is different in every game! That is the one constant.
You can't say that the game is shit when you haven't even played it yet.
Congratulations and good job on your hard work Ghil!
I'm happy for you that you got this opportunity, I'd say yes without a doubt if the question came to me too.
Not very happy about the fact that I can't really watch your channel anymore though.
This announcement definitely gives me more hope than you could imagine that this game will be great!
That’s awesome.
I’m EVEN more excited to see your future content.
Hopefully it helps. The reveal trailer was painful to watch.
Last time I was this early the Veil wasn't even a thin-hold on, you're collaborating with BioWare?! 🤩
That's massive!
Congrats!
That is so awesome! Can’t wait to hear more about your experience 😄
Yooo! This is great news I’m so happy for you after listening to you for so long👍
What a cool experience! I am so glad that Bioware included content creators/fans who care about the series as much as you do!
That's awesome. I hope it was a great experience for you. Looking forward to your DA: Veilguard content!
Congrats! Honestly this doesn't change my opinion of your channel too much though, because your lore content has always been top notch!
YEEEEAAHHH! Love this for you and all of us! Congrats
