We still have a bit of a wait before we can begin tackling the Dragon Age: The Veilguard achievements, but new details about the difficulty choices suggest we'll have a range of options to help style how we'll play, with Dragon Age: The Veilguard also letting you turn off death if you prefer.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard is set to launch later this year, although we don't yet have a release date. As fall 2024 approaches, however, more details are surfacing, including info about some of the game's difficulty options. According to Game Informer, not only is the character creator wonderfully extensive, but the playstyle options offer a lot too. Those options include the usual range, such as Storyteller for those who want to prioritise the story, Adventurer for more of a balance, and Nightmare, which sounds fittingly ominous. You'll be able to change between the first two, but if you pick Nightmare, you'll have to stick with it all the way through.
However, more extensive customizing is apparently available with the Unbound option where you can choose things such as auto-aim, adjust damage (both dealt and received), and manage the timing for parrying. You'll also have a no-death option, and game director Corinne Busche explains to Game Informer that these options are not "a cheat" but are there to "make sure players of all abilities can show up."
Death might do as you please but romance will not, as one of the things we've learned about Dragon Age: The Veilguard recently is the fact that its companions will get together if you fail to romance them.
