So, a while ago someone mentioned doing a Veilguard survey and then... just didn’t. And unfortunately for everyone, I actually do this kind of thing professionally. Sooo, guess what:
It’s Veilguard survey time
It’s short, it’s anonymous, it’s for fun, and it’s for science (but the fandom kind). I also personally blame @postcardsfromheapside for this. I’m planning to make a dashboard and write up the results in a big post later, so we can all argue about the data like God intended.
Please fill it out and reblog if you can — I’d love to get as many responses as possible so the graphs look sexy.

"Larian should handle the next Dragon Age game" Going off how they handled Baldur's Gate 3 if they handled a game like Dragon Age: Origins, they would release the game and then get people complaining about how they shouldn't HAVE to lose Alistair as a companion completely just because they spared Loghain because now they have to do 2 separate playthroughs and also their character has to face consequences for a decision. 5 patches later you can suddenly have both Alistair and Loghain on your team. And 2 patches ago they made it so Anora actually doesn't mind if you replace her on the throne with your friend because he has noble blood, because people complained that she shouldn't mind. And then in patch 13 Morrigan suddenly has half her dialogue replaced because players found her too mean. They don't know what to do with Sten at all so they remove his personal quest in Patch 2. Instead of developing the themes of Oghren's character further he's cut completely because dwarf companion. Due to popular demand they added Bella from the tavern and Cullen as companions and it goes as well as you expect. Your origin also has no impact on the rest of the game except you get a handful of dialogue options that are sometimes funny. In Patch 14 they change Bann Teagan's hairstyle, only to patch it back to his original hairstyle in Patch 15 because everyone hated it. In Patch 15 they give Dog fur, only to patch it away in Patch 16 because everyone hated it. Patch 44 has everyone reunite for a party at Arl Eamon's place for some reason. Everyone is playing a different version of the game because it has changed so dramatically between early access and Patch 743. You can fuck Morrigan when she shapeshifts into a spider at full release though.
#see this is exactly what i was saying on that poll ..... there's no way the women dont become husks and the white men get the spotlight#while any character not fitting Fuckable Woman or White Man (Tall) is just completely ignored/made worse over time#like the game is good but you cant just overlook the nonsense of changes these patches introduce. it would be terrible for DA#which is a series built off of strong characters

And please tell me why you'd want your chosen studio to take over in the tags!! :] Orrr why you don't trust any of them >:]
#why would it go to elsewhere and not be retaken by the actual people who created it????? like. imagine they actually made the game they#wanted to and not whatever marketing dictated. bc they had good ideas for da4 but instead they fired their writers after disrespecting them#anyway. if you're saying larian you need help. if you said larian i need to know whether you only played bg3 on release or if you have#knowledge of what it was. bc like. no. wyll is jacob levels of problematic.#and wtf. even after release they STILL pandered to loud babies online and literally made laezel nicer (never gave wyll shit btw) like.#absolutely the fuck not. pandering WAS the problem with da4 thats why it sucks so much ass!!!!!!!

literally insane to me how sera's entire philosophy is "revolution doesnt have to be organized or even particularly coherent. all that matters is reminding the aristocracy they are mortal and the common people that their power is contingent on our compliance" and the game just completely fails to find it thought provoking at all in fact you as the player are expected to find it juvenile and baffling there is no way to even humor her in her beliefs without an added disclaimer that the inquisitor still finds it all ridiculous and isnt really taking her seriously

weird how the vitriol/"stay in your lane"/"puts me off the character entirely" is never aimed at fenris or lucanis (or blackwall, or garrus, etc.) - just isabela/neve/josephine hmmm
could it be. misogyny

Question time because I am curious. Who is your favourite DA OC? Not the most powerful, not the most efficient, not the most important in lore but the one you LOVE.

you can assume both the orb and justice are dampened and out of reach as well.
#how many times does Tumblr have to ask this damn question#girl. come the fuck on. it's anders. gale is a pampered and stressed out man he CANNOT duke it out w anyone. (we love this for him.)#meanwhile anders has been getting harrassed and locked up since before he hit puberty. he has scrapped many a time. this is obvious.#like what exactly is it that even warrants this question. it isn't even a close call.#the current 15% of yall dingbats voting gale must not have ever played daoa or da2 bc thats a genuinely ignorant response lol
