Only your DA Inquisition choices influence Dragon Age Veilguard’s world state, which skips over all things DA Origins and DA 2
Inquisition Veilguard’s world state, which skips over all things DA Origins and DA 2. The news comes from a recent interviewconducted with series creative director John Epler, where Epler said that he and the team wanted to avoid seemingly flippant cameo appearances where people and decisions from earlier games received only one sentence of mention.
Instead of simulating choices from all three previous games when you start Rook’s adventure, Veilguard only asks you who you romanced in Inquisition – the choices are still race and gender locked – whether you promised to save or stop Solas, and whether you disbanded the Inquisition or handed it over to the Chantry. You’ll make these choices at the start of Veilguard in the Adventurer’s Past section.
“There's never a sense of, ‘Oh, that decision doesn't exist.’ But maybe we don't touch on it in this particular title. Much like Inquisition didn't touch on every decision from Origins, much like DA2 didn't touch on every decision from Origins, it's kind of in that same vein of we're not going to contradict it. We just may not always reference it directly.
It seems like a tough balancing act, but we don’t have much longer to wait before we find out how well BioWare pulled it off. Dragon Age The Veilguard launches for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on October 31, 2024.
