This isnt even a Dragon Age game anymore

[Macamar]

All the characters are ugly and the gameplay looks nothing like DAO, the only good Dragon Age game. At this point just come up with a new franchise, it seems like these people can never come up with original things and just love to drag good franchises through the mud. Look at stars wars, comic books, and so many modern day games they have to use popular franchises or else nobody would pay attention to them and even then they ruin those franchises.

There will be blood magic. Of course there will be people using blood magic. Just not for your character. Which was already the case in Inquisition, so this isn't a new development.

There seems to be quite a bit of necromancy in Veilguard so I am interested to see how that works in the game.

The companion Emmrich Volkarin is a necromancer and the played character can join the faction "The Mourn Watch" which apparently are elite guardians and keepers of the Grand Necropolis.

My Inquisitor recently recruited Cassandra and I remember her conversation about the relative that raised her after her parents death. How that person was more interested in the dead than the living relatives.

Don't think that I will make a mage on my first PT but I am curious about necromancy. It looks like it could be an interesting faction and make for a interesting character.

Yes I'm very excited to see the Grand Necropolis, the Mortalitasi have always seemed so interesting to me! Emmrich and some of his colleagues already showed up in Tevinter Nights and another short story and I'm happy we get to see more of him. Nevarran beliefs about the dead are very different from the rest of Thedas. Talking to someone actually holding those beliefs should be interesting, since Cassandra painted a rather unfavourable picture haha.

I'm very tempted to make a non-Mage Mournwatcher, maybe even a Dwarf, just to see how they fit into that society.

I am so so looking forward to meeting Emmrich, so far I haven't seen any videos because I do not want to know too much going in but players on the BioWare Social Network seems to be very pleased by him. Manfred the skeleton looks like an interesting character as well. So far I haven't read Tevinter Nights but it seems to pop up in discussions an awful lot so I might just get around to it. Especially if they make us wait for very much longer before releasing the game.

I am hoping that you can make an interesting gray spellcaster joining the Mourn Watch. It would be a nice contrast to my earlier mages that have always gone the route of lightning or fire. Currently I am reading the book "Sabriel" by Garth Nix. There a necromancer needs to be musical and they use bells so sway the dead. Also swords in the bells come up short. The book somehow got me in a mood for a necromancer spellcaster, seeing how another fictional magical world handles death. If it means that you will see something special in the game that other players will not have access to then I am all the happier.

That would be brilliant. If your non-Mage Mournwatcher could become a penpall with Dagna then it would be perfect!

The inanity of saying “this isn’t DA, it’s so different from DA:O” when this is the third DA game out of four that os very different from DA:O” never gets old. Oh wait … it does. Immediately.

Your hot take is very room temperature, my guy.
