Dragon Age: The Veilguard's PC port is polished, performant and scales well beyond console quality
Digital Foundry's tech review for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, along with those all-important optimised settings.www.eurogamer.net
this comes after a glowing review by Eurogamer that Ive already linked in the Steam thread![]()
People on Era are showing their copies arriving today(a day early!) so maybe you'll get really lucky!I can't wait! I just hope that the delivery doesn't mess up and I have to wait till Monday, considering Friday is a red day.
Yeah I got it today! Installing it right now. Hyyyype!People on Era are showing their copies arriving today(a day early!) so maybe you'll get really lucky!

Yeah I feel exactly the same, was little worried in the beginning but loving it now that it’s more open.31 hours in, and Ive been pretty happy with the game so far.
The start of the game is way more linear than I'd like, and was worried that the game would jump the shark after a fish in a barrel turret section early on. But DAV course corrects massively after it opens up, and I've since been very satisfied by the quest lines and general exploration.
The character creator is sick af:
I count myself blessed though that I read a trophy guide (PowerPyx's, to be specific) pretty early in the game, as apparently one of the hard binary decisions midway through can result in inability to get the best ending. Chillingly, the apparently "wrong" decision was the one I absolutely would have chosen, had I not known this in advance...
Well... yes, allegedly.Yeah I feel exactly the same, was little worried in the beginning but loving it now that it’s more open.
About the choice, eek! I chose to help the crows am I fucked?
Wouldnt this take up both CPU overhead and RAM?Kept messing with settings at 4k and stuttering seems to be gone, no idea why. I wonder if having Firefox and tabs open takes away some of the available cpu.
I totally understand where youre coming from, lol. However, parrying isnt that bad - basically its entirely up to the little Arkham like reticle that appears above your character's head. When it turns yellow (from white), press parry.I also read about that choice, so I chose the side I didn't want to choose. I kind of regret it now, but hey... that's what re-plays are for!
My experience was very similar to everyone else's I guess -- I was very worried during the first few hours or so, but now I'm having a blast. I wish I could parry better, but even with the parry timers at their most generous, I just suck at timing anything like that, especially with all of the enemies swarming me and spell effects everywhere. Makes my choice of playing a Duelist rogue a bit questionable lol
Same! I stopped even trying to parry, I just dodge instead all the time and it is working pretty well. I did however lower the difficulty one step.I also read about that choice, so I chose the side I didn't want to choose. I kind of regret it now, but hey... that's what re-plays are for!
