Look, I'm not a fancy CEO guy, but if someone said to me "the key to this successful single-player IP's success is to make it purely a multiplayer game. No, not a spin off: fundamentally change the DNA of what people loved about the core game" to me, I'd probably, like, quit that job or something.

My advice to EA (not that they care): you have an IP that a lot of people love. Deeply. At its height, it sold well enough to make you happy, right? Look at what it did best at the point where it sold the most. Follow Larian's lead and double down on that. The audience is still there. And waiting. ❤️

If I really dig into my empathy, I can kinda see the thinking here. Like, let's say you don't actually know much about games. You're in a big office with a bunch of other execs who also don't know much about games. What are they all saying? "Live games do big numbers!" "Action games are hot!"

remember when EA's tagline was "challenge everything"? Well I challenge all the execs to a fistfight.

I think all the Bioware dev casualties of EA's bullshit should get together and make their own indie game 😌

A giant middle finger to the studio for how it's treated the people who worked so hard on Dragon Age over the last few years and a second one in particular for how it treated everyone who got caught up in the layoffs/reassignments today and hid behind calling it being 'agile'.

Game studio announcements be like, “We laid off all your favourite devs! But don’t worry, all the people actually responsible for the horrible decision-making that led to this massive failure are staying on :) and they will still be driving their new Porsches :) all is well!!!!!”

CHARACTERS - DAY THREE: Flemeth I have a type. I admit it. There are certain wells I can return to repeatedly and always find something new to explore. One of them is older female characters. Mike used to rib me about it. Consider Wynne. Meredith. Genevieve. And, of course, the biggie: Flemeth.

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong

😂😂

🥰🥰🥰

CHARACTERS - DAY TWO: Kieran (Technically this is an addendum to yesterday, but I make the rules here so nyah!) Heading into DAI, I had a bite-sized problem on my hands. I knew Morrigan would feature. I also knew we were importing previous choices. So now I had to contend with: the Old God Baby. 🧵

Scout Harding is so Hufflepuff. I will not be taking any questions. #dragonageveilguard

#veilguardspoilers so....texture mods working now lmao get kissed idiot!!!!!!!!!

9 years ago, I had just gotten a new computer and wanted to dive into a new game. I had this video recommended to me by the YT algorithm, and was sold on the DA series. Fluffyninjallama got me into Dragon Age, and now she's posting again for Veilguard! So excited she back!❤️ youtu.be/jIhRvEl0Mhw?...

It's been a long time since I've drawn anything, but this game has me in my feelings lol #dragonage #veilguard

Ngl I’ve been kinda disappointed by veilguard, but this is the absolute funniest shit ever conceived. #dragonage #dragonagetheveilguard #solas

Morrigan 🧎‍♀️ #Morrigan #dragonage #dragonageveilguard

Do you think Davrin carves additional shoes for Harding? 🤔 #DragonAge #Veilguard

Healing #solavellan #veilguardspoilers

I couldn't help it! I had to redraw the Lavellan tarot card with my Inky and a sweet little Solas wrapping around her forearm #VeilguardSpoilers #DAtV #DragonAgetheVeilguard #Solavellan

I like him all beat up #solas #veilguardspoilers

So... When can we expect a World of Thedas Vol. 3? 😁 #DragonAge

I loved #dragonageveilguard a lot, and will definitely keep replaying. But I also have criticisms that I want to talk about but I'm afraid to be lumped in with the moron haters who don't know what they're talking about. Tbh I'm a little afraid to say anything.

Omg same

Discord being screwy has made me realize that the majority of my social interaction is on Discord.... 😳 Talk about putting all my eggs in one basket

get you a man who looks at you like antoine looks at evka

i have complicated thoughts on mythal but you have to pay me $10 to unlock my opinion so instead here's shitty memes #veilguardspoilers

#veilguardspoilers I dont know why, but the influx of lavellan x spirit!solas fan art is so cute. She would love him if he was a worm. My heart just explodes.

I wanna draw all the girlies in #dragonageveilguard... And my Rooks... But I have so many other things...There just isn't enough time in the day! 😭😭

Throwing it out there: I ranted about Corypheus for three months straight, but absolutely LOVED Inquisition. You can love something and still recognize its flaws. It’s only human.

My rook would rather break all his bones jumping off a cliff than just use the stairs like any right-minded person would 😮‍💨

Morrigan in the outfit from the Veilguard artbook 🖤 I fell in love with this design #DragonAge

I'm working on a Solas analysis because I've seen so many people misunderstanding his character after #dragonageveilguard... But it's making me obsessed again lol

Weisshaupt mission was insane I still think about it ghghghhg #Veilguardspoilers #DATV #dragonagetheveilguard

I have too many things I want to do - replay #dragonageveilguard, write a video, write fanfiction, datamine, draw fanart, read fanfiction, look at fan art, chat in forums... But then I get paralyzed and do nothing 😅😅

#veilguardspoilers have you rewatched solavellan ending like 20+ times or are you normal? 😭💕

#veilguardspoilers I was a little bummed that I didn't see a lot of lore to really analyze since they kinda went scorched earth on all of Thedas & everything that ever existed...But I think I might have at least one idea.. but I'm gonna have to replay first #DragonAgeVeilguard

Solas is still the most interesting character #dragonagetheveilguard

So ive been slowly trying to source all the codex entries for veilguard with no dice so far, and I want everyone to know it's driving me mad. ALL THE LORE THATS HIDDEN AWAY. WHAT SECRETS DO YOU HOLD GAME. GIVE IT TO ME.

I can emerge from my cave! I have finally finished #DragonAgeVeilguard !!

I would like to be able to view the memories again by interacting with the statuettes in the Lighthouse, please #dragonage

See you all on the other side! 🫡 #dragonageveilguard

LESS THAN 1 HOURS TO GO until Dragon Age : The Veilguard launches worldwide!!!!🐉🐺💜 LET'S GO!!!!

I'm getting all weird and anxious that I'm going to make all the "wrong" choices in #dragonageveilguard 😅

We're almost there. 😁 #DragonAge #Veilguard 🐲

If I go to bed now, at 4:00PM I wonder if I can sleep all the way until 9:00AM to make time pass quicker! #DragonAgeVeilguard
