I demand Assan (the bbgriffon) to get 1 million head pats. Please do your part when you play the game.
Haha your face when you saw that DOME I was the same I was like is this why the tamassrans are picky about who breeds who so we don’t get foreheads like this.
Hahaha that was soooo ugh nooooo
Why they do Rook like this 😂😂 you might be right about why they’re picking about breeding
Omg so I just watched the ign meet the companions vid and it’s ok saw a Qunari with bony forehead where it’s supposed to be so for this video someone purposefully made that forehead abomination
THANK THE MAKER. The Qunari have been saved!! 😂😂😂 I wanna know who did this and do they stream? Because clearly they have chaotic energy
@@heyamarii it was the Corinne lady lol it was her playthrough she did it it’s all her fault lol
The game looks amazing so far. Companion agency is a huge deal. The fact that they can start romances with each other is a nice touch. I noticed that when you change weapons your abilities change. Four at a time seems about right considering that even in Baldur's Gate you always end up using the same (most effective) abilities that you have anyway.
Rooks forehead looks like what happens when you mess with the sliders in character creation too much 🤣
Rook’s forehead is that cursed character you make when you’re on your 17th evil run and don’t care what the randomiser gives you 😂
Yesss the companions being advocates for their own goals, and agency over themselves is going to be a highlight in the game. I am so happy they decided to let that companion go ahead with their own quest, regardless of whether I bring them. That makes them feel even more real
never knew megamind is a Qunari😂😂
WHY DID THEY DO THAT TO HIMMMMM 🤣😭 the base of his horns are just… skin! It looks awful
@@heyamarii lmaoo hopefully we can customise, otherwise I ain't playing as megamind there lol 😂
The megamind! I can’t unsee that! Either get a really nice sweatband to cover that bulbous forehead, or roll another race. It’s ruining the cutscenes 😂😂😂
@@heyamarii lmaoo so true extremely funny even in a serious conversation. Hope there's head bands 🤞🏻
Never take that sweatband off. You can be like the Mandalorian of Qunari haha
Assan is precious and needs to be protected at all times. ❤
The mage combat has me super excited to play. The lighthouse our HQ is so beautiful and I can't wait to explore.
Great video, Amarii.
Assan is just a sweet little baby! I selfishly want Assan for myself 😂
I’m so happy to see gameplay as a mage AND with Neve! The mage looks so fun, there’s a lot of mobility and movement.
I went to watch your video immediately after I finished mine because I knew Davrin being in it would make you happy!
@heyamarii LOL I think we all want Assan to ourselves. 🤣🤣🤣 (Sorry, Darvin)
The mage gameplay was amazing and I can't wait to play as a spellblade. I watched your reaction and I loved it we are so alike with how we think!!! 🙌🏾😄🎉
Darvin make me very happy 🥰But I would still like to see more Neve, Taash, and Bellara. ❤️
This is the first VG gameplay video I actually kinda liked.
I just want to have fun as a mage and romance my companions. All of them would be great, I am not beneath being the tavern flirt. I’ll settle for 1 though I guess
@@heyamarii Promiscuity shall thwart the evil gods and save Thedas. I bet Solas, for all his knowledge and wisdom, didn't foresee that 🤣 Jesus Christ, Amari...
Huehuehuehue 😈
I see Bioware still has not figured out how to implement decent mouth movement in the Frostbite engine.
Yea that was not as smooth and realistic to the words being said :(( that was a bit of a bummer considering other games now have really well done mouth movements
Yeah, his head's weird 🤣 I'm assuming that's a player created character, isn't it? I'll be choosing different forehead options if so. The rest looks pretty. I only watched the first 10 minutes. Even that's more than I like to know if I'm going to play the game, though.
btw, goldfish have very good memories and can remember and recognise a human face after 2 weeks of not having seen the human. You can now go on holiday safe in the knowledge that your precious goldfish will remember you when you return. Pretty nice for keepers of goldfish I guess.
I truly hope the Qunari have better uhhh head shapes? Haha because I have no idea what’s going on with that one. Yes it’s player created! I think a lot of the NPCs are created using the character creator too.
My husband has 2 goldfish we never wanted 😂 it’s a long story how we ended up with them. We thought they wouldn’t last a week… 1 year later, they have this beautiful aquarium that’s almost a self sufficient biome. We still hate them 😂😂😂
But we love animals so much, we have to give them a good life. Those bloody fish
I am watching someone's video on progression for class, items, companions and I don't know where it came from. Maybe it's unlisted on their YT channel? I think you should find it.
They did a full breakdown? Was it someone that tried the game already? I will go look for it :))
@@heyamarii I think it's on their Bioware Dragon Age website.
I am actually VERY optimistic about this game! The combat and environments look great. Assan will be hugged at the first possible opportunity omg ❤ and the companions seem to have a decent degree of agency which I love. I agree with you though when it comes to the Qunari... the texture doesn't look right, like it hasn't loaded (you know like if you're using an HDD instead of an SSD?) Iron bull looked better to me. But then again the environment and villages look beautiful! I'm still counting down the time till Halloween!! 👻 🎃 I'm also very happy you're doing these reactions, you're matching my extreme excitement and hype and I love it 😅 don't forget to listen to the new episode of the podcast dropping in a few hours!!
The environments are phenomenal! And I love that they treated all these different places and maps as if it were another character; with its own story and thoughtful design.
Yes!! Hahaha the Qunari looked half baked 😂 like the skin texture on the forehead was throughout and the horn texture didn’t load up yet.
I’ll make a post thread once the episode comes out so we can discuss there 👀
FInallyyyy. i hv been waiting lol. look how cute that grifffin is
I basically teleported from my car to my PC, recorded so fast, then had to leave haha I was desperate to watch it
@@heyamarii haha see I told you it's worth it. Btw I hope you appreciate my services as a messenger whenever DA stuff releases 😂
You have been promoted to my personal DA announcer. No time off. No vacations. No pay. But I can spare you a few Elfroot here and there 😂
@@heyamarii I work for elfroots 😋 more health for me. I won't be able to play so Imma watch all your gameplay. That's enough payment. Btw if we choose greywarden we might get our own AASAN?
They say this base that we operate out of grows out from us, does that mean how we play will affect how it looks. Like if we do a more evil playstyle, will it look different than if we do a good playstyle, or is it always look the same and they are just using word salad?
I hope so! If that’s the case, it’s quite exciting to see how different bases will look. I think it also depends on how much of our companion quests we successfully accomplish
Hey Amarii check out every map thoroughly in this gameplay because I saw a Varric Icon on one of them so hopefully that means he is alive perhaps? Unless it's a memorial or something, which I really hope it's not.
I saw that circulating just now!
I don’t think my heart can take losing any of the companions from the previous games
Me either
I hope they fix the camera so it is smother and not so jerky. That much camera motion is going to make people sick.
I’m hoping it’s probably a setting, I’ll fiddle around with it as soon as it’s released so I can get it smooth
I think they're just showing off the character customistation, but yes that is one BIG forehead lol.
And there's a mini map!!! Apparently we will be able to disable/enable many parts of the UI including the minimap, attack/projectile paths, quests markersn healthbars, etc.
The combat is looking way better here and I think most of my concerns have been laid to rest, being able to swap weapons on the fly for a different playstyle is nice.
I'm wondering if the Crossroads will look different for elves in this game like it did in DAI and if we will finally be able to enter The Black City, Super excited for the game now, October can't come fast enough!
Couldn’t they make a drop dead gorgeous Qunari Rook so we can swoon?! 😂 someone else said he looks like megamind and I can’t unsee that now
A minimap that’s actually useful! Not like that stupid thing they had in DAI. I love that we can fully customise our UI, so I can make it minimal and be super immersed.
The combat for the mage has me extremely jazzed. I’m buzzing. I’m excited. I was so worried for a while there, but seeing Rook blink from one place to the next, that mobility and movement really got me.
I’m so curious about the Crossroads and the Lighthouse (is that what home base is called?). We had some customisation options for Skyhold, so I’m excited to see how much our home changes with the companions and our choices. This is going to be the longest September
Not sheets customization again?!
Ach yes ugly cunari from DAI is back!
@MrEvilside This qunari is really… yikes 😭
@@MrEvilside I long for the day where every new game has character customization like Dragons Dogma 2.
In defense of the game, the forehead could be like that in Inquisiton.
I had to look at the screenshots of other Qunari in past games. I couldn’t find one similar to this Rook, but Inquisition was the closest
@@heyamarii yeah, in Inquisition some of the options for a qunari Inquisitor had the skin go up on the horns.
Rest in peace Dragon Age Origins.. we may never get another Dragon Age like it again 😭😭
Nothing will compare to DAO tbh. Even DA2 was so meh to me compared to DAO. I liked Inquisiton more than DA2, by then the gameplay was soooo different
@@heyamarii Honestly i give DA2 abit of a pass as they only had about 1 year and 6 months to make it.. so in that perspective the amount they did put in that game is actually kindof impressive.. whereas Inquisition was 5-6 years development and it felt like fanfic disney writers.. Atleast DA2 and demon bargaining and conversations and really evil playthroughs.. i think in 3 there are only like 3 real evil options. And zero demon conversations. I also really didnt like how they made the Elven Gods a real thing.. i lived how the Gods were alot like real life where they could be real or they could just be our beliefs taking control type deal..
I can go on a rant and talk dragon age all day tbh 😅😅.. thats first game was something special.. especially the Qunari.. Sten Peak Qunari 😎
@PuppetMaster-Blade woah I didn’t realise they created DA2 in such a short time. It makes sense now, the game did feel a tad rushed. The combat was also confusing, it was not DAO but it was also not quite anything else. It felt like there was an indecision on how combat should be done. Which is also probably because of the shorter development time.
What I didn’t like about inquisition was all that BLOAT. Holy moly the amount of fetch and achievement hunting quests was offensive. But I loved the companions and their stories. And Freddie Prince Jr was in it 😂
I don’t really play evil 😬 so that’s not a problem for me.
@@heyamarii yeh the companions are always really good in the dragon age games, arguably the best part. Sera in 3 was Gold.
And yes Fred Jones was great too.
And i get not doing evil playthroughs, but id still wager when you came across the demons in DAO it improved your overall playthrough. Like the Desire demon in a cat wanting to possess a child.. sure you didnt help the demon, but it definitely improved the quality of the gamd but default.. where 3 doesnt have anything even close to that
@PuppetMaster-Blade I loved bringing Sera around, the way she got under everyone’s skin was hilarious.
The demons are far better in DAO, they made you feel the evil presence. They seemed to actually try and infiltrate the lives of everyone in Thedas, and not just this force of creatures coming out a hole
@2:58 I agree with you about the horns needing a base to rest on the head. They look like the flesh just sort of grows over them. Tiefling horns in BG3 are how you do horns correctly
BG3 tiefling horns are beautiful works of art. This one was flipping weird. Yea the skin coming over the base of it made it look like a tumor
This looks a little like Diablo 4 but from an over the shoulder camera rather than more top down. not sure how I feel about this.
In a way, I can see the comparison. Diablo 4 was so tedious and boring compared to its predecessors though. I hope DAV is not like that when it comes to story or quests
Hope theres patch updates
I’m hoping for a clean launch day! I’m so nervous for the devs, new games are always riddled with bugs and I’m hoping there isn’t anything game breaking
@@heyamarii fingers crossed for all good things
I generally like the terrain, but the way feet move through water is way off. instead of foot falls causing circular waves as they should, they case v-waves like a ship sailing through water. Very unrealistic and a bit immersion breaking.
Woah I didn’t even catch that! Good eye.
actually, as long as you don't *stomp* into the water, drag the whole foot out and stomp again, but wade through it (while having your feet in the water the whole time), you will cause these v/u-shaped waves, more than circular ones? (the animation still does not look too good, but, it's not the wrong shape :D)
Maybe our shoes are little boats? 😂
@@heyamarii just imagine emmerich skating through the water with little boat-shoes :'D
It’s monsoon season right now and we have huge puddles of water. I want to go test this water ripple shape theory haha I’ll try running vs walking and see the different effects. I’ll need to wear heavy boots too to be as accurately close to what our Rook would be wearing. Standby for the next big rain for big enough puddles that will facilitate this experiment 😂
Emmrich sailing along little puddles like a boat would be funny
Uff. That camera! It is going to make me sick. They need to fix that and allows us to step the camera out a bit the way BG3 does, or I am going to have to pass on this game, no matter how fun the story and mechanics may be, you can't enjoy a game if the camera makes you sick.
I’ll mess with the camera when the game is released and show you what the options are. So you can decide if it will help your motion sickness. I get it too so I always do a few adjustments :))
@heyamarii thanks. I'll definitely give your let's play a try when it comes out.
Why do horns have to be something that is plugged onto a head, like some cheap arsed cosplay. Horns should grow naturally out of a skull. It seems strange cause this guy has a head with friggin horns. How else would they be portrayed?
I was thinking more closer to the animals that have horns in nature - like a ram. The horn growing beneath the skin, along it rather than protruding straight out from the skull, just looks strange. Probably uncomfortable for the skin tissue over the horns too.
Its looks like andromeda without jetpack, 0/10
I’ve never played Andromeda, was it any good?
@@heyamarii Nah it was very bad compare to trilogy.
Awww bummer… I was hoping to play it
Andromeda was hilarious poorly written as an Ai companion attached to the Main character, literally did everything to move the plot forward themselves. The main character was just meatsuit to get the Ai there. if they transferred the Ai to an robot body like EDI, then the main character would be 100% useless.
Still Andromeda had other things going for it, fun sandbox exploration, excellent combat systems, some side quests were good too and a Stunning artstyle.
Well yes the Hair looks odd on him in the first place , Then yes it looks like they took the devs from the old republic and made the Art style for Dragon age veil guard , i love Bioware not this Version of Bioware Pre EA so people will hate Me but its a Fact That Bioware was the best in Story Telling & Graphical story Art styling . i am Pissed a Billion dollar Company uses a 5000 year old game engine but that just tells me Miss Management at Ea / Bioware is running Ramped . i am worried about Dragon age & mass effect as a IP enough game companies have dig Wholes For so many advance IPS valve with half life / splinter Cell with ubisoft / stargate with MGM now sick minded amazon / so yes i love Dragon age IP not so much this dragon age but i will give EA one last Chance . Art style on the characters and the crazy colors all over the place is not My favorite so i will try . also stop adding modern day ideologies into games there are massive reasons why 99% of humanity hates force ideologies & no in past Bioware it was not forced in games Light in game maybe but not forced .
The art style is going to take me a while to get used to, it’s not my favourite either for the characters. The landscapes look great, but the characters look out of place to me.
This is a recurring problem in the game industry, larger companies that are so disconnected from the actual developers and the community are dictating the direction. BioWare is having to use EA’s proprietary game engine, which slows development and difficult to use. I loved both ME and DA, that I too am disheartened that the IP and the devs are being controlled by a faceless company. EA isn’t exactly my favourite game company out there, certainly not the worst offender, but they’re up there as quite anti consumer.
No one likes forced ideologies, no matter which side you stand. I haven’t noticed any overtly forced ones just from the videos Dragon Age has released. The closest I’ve heard about is the sexual preference of the companions, which is like BG3 - player sexual
@@heyamarii i 100% Agree .i just hope Modder's Can Fix this all .i just find it odd Bioware Keeps Using one of worse Game Engine on earth .
@TheSamsamdd34 I don’t think BioWare has a choice really, that’s EA’s game engine that BioWare have to use. Seems like a big handicap for them to work with. It was only recently I looked into the Frostbite engine, a lot of complaints about the learning curve not not being user friendly
@@heyamarii Dragon Age Veil Guard dos have some Forced ideologies one in the Q&A in how the Devs talked about the Game , 2 the Pride colors all over some abilities in game Also but i will look into having that Modding i dont want to be popping off abilities with Rainbows colors after wiping out 5000 enemies . i like natural form of sexuality like the LGB , but Forcing propaganda on to the Gaming community will kill Bioware i am surprised they are risking this much in the game now yes Mods will correct all this some people think this is like o yea touch grass well i have traveled to 20 plus countries world wide no one that i have seen has touch as much trees as i have lol but yea , But there's about 8 games that did this type of ideologies micro forced on the gaming communities & Hollywood and lost Billions of usd , i Like stories Naturally made but with deep stories and yes i love the real rainbow in real life because its earth natural science Not the other whatever .
Not on the fence at all. DAO is still on my HD, this game will never be there. Nothing about this over-hyped particle effect mess appeals to me.
DAO will forever be one of my favs too! So much that I want to play it again because I’m pretty sure I’ve forgotten 70% of the game by now
Now let's get down to reality. How much a game like that will cost, most new game now are approaching the $100 US. You will also need a superduper computer with those super high graphic and, of course, a really super good graphic card. Otherwise there will be a lot of lagging or you will have to play on low settings to avoid those famous game crash!
Valid points! Games are getting more and more expensive, and many times we’re not getting the quality that’s worth the price. The standard edition of DAV cost me around $50ish, I don’t know the exact conversion to US$.
Consoles like the Xbox and PS are a level playing field for games, as long as you’re in the current generation, you will be able to play the games released for it. Not everything is perfectly optimised every time though.
PCs are a huge investment to stay up to date for the games being released, or even for future proofing what’s to come. With how quickly technology changes, it seems we need newer parts constantly. It’s a money sink.
Release date lags and bugs are almost expected for every game now. I don’t think I’ve seen a game launched with zero issues in years. It’s kind of strange that it’s an acceptable feature with release day.
@@heyamarii 1 peso = .018 US$ Why the dev. would hire people to fix the lags and bugs when they know that the gamer will do it for free! (mods and fixes)
I truly hope the devs spend the time to fix bugs. So many smaller studios take the time to patch their games and fix them even months after their release.
@@heyamarii 1 pesos = .018 US$ Why the dev. would hire people to fix bugs and lags when they know that the gamers will do it for free! (mods & fixes)
zone exploration topography exactly what I wanted. Lyrium Dagger, old school pkmn HMs.
21:50 has no potions, Ignores potion to the left, why lol....
Love the how the Mage works but the person playing wasn't great sadly to showcase it better. They never use the fire spell despite darkspawn being weak to it in this game. Just keep doing ability combo with their necro spell which darkspawn resist lol.
The exploration is what’s really exciting for me out this video. The maps are beautifully done!
Strange that whoever was playing didn’t just blast all the darkspawn with fire 😂
MY FACE IS TIRED LOOK
Get some beauty sleep!
@@heyamarii i was talking about that qunari !
Oh!! 😂😂
