I’m one of them.

I’m constantly looking for that game format since Mass Effect 1 and Dragon Age Origins.

There’s been what? Greedfall. That’s it.

Which is sad. TV series have knocked movies on their asses as the better media lately because they are now the better story tellers. This format of game tells the best stories.

And yet they’re just not being made.

As much as I’d like this game ASAP, I’m still waiting.

I hope Dreadwolf gives you at least a little bit of what you crave, soldier 🫡

For what it's worth, Dragon Age as a fandom has some of the nicest, least gatekeepy gamers I've ever interacted with. I feel really bad y'all are stuck under EA's thumb.

Remember, Bioware started as a love project for DND. Baldurs gate. Neverwinter nights. (NWN was a community!) Some of us are from that time, just old DND people scratching that itch.

Yuuuuuup. Not worth getting a save deleted or dealing with the bugs. Really hoping for it.

Edit: purchased after seeing good technical reviews. Enjoying so far still in prologue. Tone is a bit lighthearted so far. Combat is flashy and fun. Will see how it holds up as time goes on
