Dragon Age: The Veilguard will offer more than just dialogue flavor with its factions, as Rook's choice of background will also impact gameplay, regardless of the player's class. Compared to the franchise's origins, Dragon Age: The Veilguard marks a bold departure towards a more action-oriented style of combat. This decision has been a notable source of controversy, as not all players are on board with The Veilguard's overall direction. That being said, the core elements of Dragon Age still seem to be present, even if its intricate talent trees are now in service of a different type of gameplay altogether.
