Where do I start?
It hurts me, really, really hurts me to not recommend one Dragon Age game, but here we are.
The Veilguard is a good and a bad game at the same time. It starts really badly, with some of the worst dialogue I've ever seen in a game. In the middle, it gets better, and in the end, it made me cry. (damn you Bioware, why?) That's it, the end is good.

Good things:
The combat is fun, the best combat since Origins. The game environment is perfect, truly beautiful. Treviso and Necropolis are my favorites, gorgeous work by Bioware there. The hair is also great, the best hair in a video game to this day. I love it. The voice acting is good, as expected. I had no issues with FPS, crashes, etc, the game worked really well (which is rare these days). No EA app, no microtransactions, etc.

Now, the bad:
Companions: Really, I mean, really, Bioware? How can you guys improve in one area but leave behind what you used to do best, which is well written companions?
Davrin and Emmrich are the only ones who had good companion quests and are well written (I really like them). Harding was disappointment, Neve, starts ok, but somehow in the middle she gets boring?, Bellara looks like came out from a pixar movie, Lucanis is ok I guess. And, Taash... This is one of the worst, most horribly written characters in video game history, shallow, boring, monotone, egocentric, and annoying (is like a teenager in our team). Also, her romance with ***** is horrible, it made me uncomfortable in real life some things Taash says about ******.

Romance: Where??? Where’s the romance? 18 minutes of romance, really? We can't even hug our beloved before final fight? Why?

Choices: There’s little to none. You can be nice, friendly, or cool, and that’s it. No companion hating you :D, and they basically deleted everything we did in other games except for a few choices from Inquisition.

General story: The foundation of the story is there, it's good, but poorly written. It also doesn’t help when you hear modern day dialogue in a fantasy medieval game, it breaks the immersion. You can address today’s issues in a way that does not break player immersion, ok? Or don’t you guys remember Krem? Anyways.

This game is a mixed experience for me: it is not Dragon Age and it is at the same time? Sometimes I really enjoyed it and had fun, but there were too many unenjoyable moments as well. I can't believe this is what we got after TEN years. I just hope Bioware does better with Mass Effect, but, to be honest, I don't believe it.

In the end, I finished the game with a mix feeling of sadness and disappointment. Dragon Age is not what used to be.

8/10
If there was a sequel, it would be 10/10.
Great game, great story, graphics aged well.. and, has one of the best protagonists in video game history.
The only problem with DXMD is the fact that we know the game was cut in half to have a pt 2, which we will probably never have, yeah rip.
"Thanks", Embracer. 🤡
The cliffhanger at the end left a sour taste in my mouth, I NEED a conclusion to Jensen's story.

Great story, great protagonist, f*cking great game.
So great that I played full stealth, (I usually hate stealth), but somehow they made it really fun in deus ex.

DO NOT BUY IT.
The fps issue needs to be fixed, urgently. The struggle is real.
(my pc is very good, btw.)
Microtransations, really? ♥♥♥♥ you, capcom.
The game crashes at the same point everytime.
I'm gonna refund and wait. That's it.
Go play Baldur's Gate 3.
