all in all this is probably the best dragon age game for people who don't care about dragon age. the game launches, there aren't game-breaking bugs, there aren't day-one dlcs, there isn't DRM. so that already puts us in the best 10% of modern AAA launches. on top of that the game repeats stuff in dialogue so much, you don't need to know anything about the lore (you don't need to even pay attention, go make a coffee during cutscenes or whatever) and the game has a character called Taash who seems to be a misogynistic non-binary ethnic minority whose whole personality revolves around "femininity is bad", which will endear both woke and anti-woke folks. you got marvel-style quippy dialogue for zoomers, you got redundant dialogue for the grannies who fall asleep while watching soap operas. you got a dialogue wheel for RPG fans and flashy combat for the CoD-brained among us. also you kick stuff on the floor and collect loot which is the best part of looter-shooters. the ending basically invalidates the prior games and pisses all over the established lore so you don't have to play the other games either.
it has a little something for everyone.

World's first amnesia type game (artifacts included)
@snowflake-inc.7563 Says:
There’s a clip of a Netflix show runner saying their script was edited for it wasn’t ’second screen enough’.
Dialogue is now written with the assumption you’re doing something else on your phone and require continual recaps.
TV can be passive, sure but you’re supposed to be playing the game, no?
@JohannSyah Says:
I haven't played this game since I don't own PS5, but just by watching it, it's a shame that this series is moving away from CRPG, and basically a prettied up Inquisition.
@Ahzumer Says:

@selerLokote Says:
I can’t remember if the elven gods Elgar’nan and Ghilan’nain have escaped prison…guess i need to reach a new cutscene to find out
@GeeNo_ Says:
Just from this video it sounds so much like the writers used AI or something. Like why do they keep repeating the same things? Lol
@Shadowsign Says:
I mean it's the first what, 5 hours? Also like the FIRST quest, they are talking to new people constantly and they have to let them know why things are bad..
@gunofbrixtonz Says:
When I watched I sure am glad they recap the plot because I struggle to be thankful for them recapping the plot I have trouble liking how they remind me whats going on because I have difficulties in mind that I am grateful for the recap and after I watch this video I'll leave a comment.

Did we ever find the artefact?

@joesmith-g4d Says:
Too Funny! I would have liked to seen a few of the first scenes and how well your character matched up with their dialog. As far as romancing is concerned, they should have learned something from the first 3 mass effects. Being a completionism, I had to play the romances out including playing as a female shepherd. As I have replayed them over the years, I quit the romancing and it is so much better. That is the beauty of how those games were designed. Your choices may lead you down certain pathways BUT it was never contrived or forced on you. That is the old bioware....
@Keld1987 Says:
why does is look 15 years old?`
@CyberVirtual Says:
It’s crazy how BioWare has been the industry’s biggest joke that they themselves continued to stay that way. Like do they have to disband from EA and start their own studio as well?
I am so glad that at least Visceral’s former members didn’t have to embarrass themselves like this before even leaving EA to make Callisto Protocol.

Dunkey underestimating the adhd brain, the peak gamer brain, needs constant reminders otherwise they forget and buy Call of Duty again
@feurio008 Says:
What a dramatic and insanely good story, but have you guys heard about the artifacts? You know...the artifacts that do artifact stuff.

FARSCAPE REFERENCE DUNKEY I DIDNT KNOW YOU WERE CHIIL LIKE THAT
@gabrielg229 Says:
They never mention what Pot of Greed does. And I don't remember the effect anyway.
@Erik-zd3no Says:
The game looks beautiful, combat engaging. The developers did great, the writers did the opposite. Same for the art directors.
@MrNuthaShot Says:
I love how many dunkey videos now feature Rygel from Farscape 😊
@nosferadu Says:
Another AAA game that is just like every other AAA game but somehow with crappier writing.
@wizardboi Says:
this game is compatible with human with bad attention span, and low concentration, and bad at studies, yep
@siskavard Says:
What I've learned today:
Dwarves can't dream, swim, use magic, sleep, cry, apply for mortgages, run, be tossed, use public transit, eat, fly, dance, read, or be mages.
Thanks, Dragon Age!

lol I actually had fun playing this and was interested what dunkey would think
Not surprised or disappointed 😂
It is flawed af but I got my money’s worth.
@Squigglydipladocus Says:
The way they drill the info repeatedly reminded me of the "taking the hobbits to isengard" song. You could probably remake that song with elven guards escaping prison.
