As a seasoned Dragon Age gamer with countless hours spent traversing Thedas, I find myself increasingly disheartened by BioWare’s recent revelations regarding The Veilguard. It seems that every time they turn around, they’re spilling another major story spoiler into the public sphere.
It appears that BioWare unintentionally disclosed what seems like a significant plot point for the upcoming game Dragon Age: The Veilguard. This could be related to Harding’s new magical abilities, Solas transforming into his Dreadwolf form, or even Morrigan reappearing. Intriguingly, BioWare has been consistently sharing major storylines and revelations for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, which may have been better kept secret. Recently, they’ve shared another spoiler, but in an extremely unusual manner.
Today, BioWare showcased the battle mechanics in the upcoming game “Dragon Age: The Veilguard”, emphasizing the Warrior class. During this demonstration, they hinted at a significant development – although no major spoilers were promised – that Weisshaupt Fortress (the residence of the Grey Wardens) is under siege by Ghilan’nain, one of the game’s antagonists, and her Archdemon.
There’s some confusion about why this detail isn’t considered a significant story spoiler. While it might not be a big deal for less dedicated fans who may lack context or knowledge of the lore, hardcore “Dragon Age” followers, who make up the core audience for this kind of marketing, might find this revelation quite substantial. In fact, it seems almost unnecessary to share such a major detail. As a result, some “Dragon Age” fans are expressing dissatisfaction with the unexpected disclosure.
In a nutshell, this narrative raises an intriguing query: How could a Double Blight, headed by an Archdemon backed by an elven deity, assault the Grey Wardens’ HQ without the main character of Dragon Age: Origins, the Grey Warden, making an appearance? If it’s a swift, unforeseen attack, it might be possible. However, if not, it would necessitate a significant suspension of disbelief on the part of the player. Regardless of BioWare’s justification for this, it becomes increasingly apparent that the series is falling short of delivering on the promise of Dragon Age: Origins’ narrative depth. It’s possible that in Veilguard, we might be surprised and the Grey Warden could appear, but that seems improbable at present.
