Dragon Age: The Veilguard | Official Reveal Trailer
Dragon Age: The Veilguard | Official Reveal Trailer
I don't know, this felt very "quirky" compared to older Dragon Age games. We'll see how it goes.

Not sure how I feel about the art style. Varric and Harding look decent, but it felt like the longer the trailer went on the more the characters turned into something out of a stylized hero shooter. Honestly, the whole trailer felt more suited to a hero shooter than a single player RPG. Hopefully the gameplay looks better, but this was a very odd way to formally reintroduce your game after ten years of scattered trailers and announcements.

If I remember correctly this was a live service game at first but pivoted back to singleplayer after Anthem or some other flop. It definitely still bleeds through.

Yeah, the art style definitely feels like a holdover from the live-service days. I could see them having to work with whatever assets were left after that version of the game was scrapped and just having to make it work.

That's my guess too. I figure this had to be just misguided marketing (or even ragebaiting) ahead of the reveal on Tuesday.
Though I suppose it's possible this is the route they decided to go with for the game with a slave state setting...
-
Yeah, really hoping this is just a misstep from the marketing team. It's such a whiplash inducing shift in tone from all the previous marketing and trailers that they've released. If not then they certainly picked an interesting game to fully shift the tone from dark fantasy to...whatever Veilguard is aiming for.

holy shit it has really been ten years.

Was about to comment about the developers probably had to meet some diversity quota but the "hero shooter cast" sounds even more descriptive. Personally don't really mind much if the gameplay is good and the game is free of the usual triple-a monetization shenigans.
But in a post Baldurs gate 3 world Bioware will need to work extra hard to meet the increased expectations.
