Armor is being reduced to a single piece/helm

[Plinto]

No more gloves, boots, chest piece, helm combos. It's just a suit and helm with belts, rings, and necklaces that I guarantee you are not even represented visually in game. Even with transmog, this is a straight downgrade from all previous games. I'm tired of the streamlining. There should be more customization, more complexity and variation in armor pieces and styles for each new title. instead of trying to actually improve the armor systems of the past they've wiped them out.

We pay more and more for every new title while the devs streamline and remove features and player choice. This is coming from someone who has greatly enjoyed the series for the most part.

Oh, you've greatly enjoyed the series have you?
Then I'm sure you remember how you couldn't even really equip DA2 companions with armor except for upgrades, and I'm sure you remember that in Inquisition it was also just the suit and helmet + accessories.

It really keeps getting "better and better". What's next? Only one mainstat? Only one stack of "crafting components"? Only one enemy type for each map?

Medieval armors were usually a set of armor pieces, This isnt a major downgrade, Inquisition also had full armors.

guys i can't even wear a helmet, I am in the beginning of game which is starts lighthouse. Will I can wear helmets in future ? because i have deluxe edition and inventory says I got 5 helmet but can't wear any of them it don't showup. can you answer if you understand

This is pretty standard Dragon Age, you don't really get individual pieces of gear, you get costume pieces.

I love it when all equip-able items are shown visually on a character and you get individual slots for all parts of your body but Veilguard isn't "streamlining", this is just always how DA has been haha

you know those purple cows with the white milka writing all over them, they will replace companions with those, but instead of purple we"ll get rainbowcolors and a magic pot of vaseline
