Grummz @Grummz - 10h I posted this as a rumored leak, and it turns out it was false. Sometimes rumors don't pan out to be true. I'm leaving this up because it is already Community Noted and I'm not trying to hide a mistake. Thanks to my followers who helped track this down.

100 Checkpoint Gaming OCT 28, 2024 Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a triumphant return to form for one of gaming's most loved developers. It's an epic and grandiose RPG adventure, interwoven with intimate, powerful stories about its cast of endearing and quirky companions. It has a truly stunning world to explore, with hidden secrets, alluring side quests and a literal treasure... Read More 100 XboxEra FULL REVIEW PLAYSTATION 5 OCT 28, 2024 Dragon Age: The Veilguard isn't just in my Game of the Year rankings, it's in my Best Games of All Time. BioWare has finally matched their recent excellent third-person combat with some of, if not their best, story work to date. This game is an absolute triumph for those old and new to the series. 100 Press Start Australia OCT 28, 2024 Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a triumph for BioWare in practically every way. It brings together the best bits of all the games that have come before it, pairing an intricately woven narrative ripe with genuine choice and consequences with a fast, frenetic and endlessly satisfying combat system. The Veilguard is, without a doubt, Dragon Age at it's best. FULL REVIEW 90 Pure Xbox FULL REVIEW ✔ PLAYSTATION 5 XBOX SERIES X OCT 28, 2024 Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a triumphant return to form for BioWare. This is a top-class action-RPG that lives up to the Dragon-Age name whilst laying to rest the ghosts of Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem. With a roster of amazing companions to recruit, a mind-bending world full of exquisite regions to explore, and combat that raises the... Read More 95 PlayStation Universe OCT 28, 2024 FULL REVIEW Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a must-have RPG this holiday season. There is so much that Veilguard brings to the table that it's hard to find something to dislike. Veilguard is a complete package that gives you everything you could ever wish for in an action-RPG, and is without a doubt a return to form for BioWare. 80 FULL REVIEW C 90 Metro GameCentral PLAYSTATION 5 IGN Portugal XBOX SERIES X OCT 28, 2024 Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a return to form for BioWare. Assuming itself to be more of an action game, some RPG elements have been pushed into the background as a result. The history of the world of Thedas mixes with the history of Solas and our companions, in a plot that seems unappealing at first, but blossoms in the middle of the game. With... Read More OCT 28, 2024 FULL REVIEW C A triumphant return for BioWare, with a massive, action-intensive fantasy role-player, that combines a complex and intuitive fighting system with a great script and a glorious looking world to explore. 80 TheGamer FULL REVIEW 90 COGconnected Critic Review While it looks and plays differently than past Dragon Age games, Dragon Age: The Veilguard doesn't abandon either its rich trove of lore or ability to tell engaging stories. Dragon Age: The Veilguard has memorable characters and action-focused combat that contains more than enough depth to see it through to the end. Polished and confident, Dragon Age: The Veilguard feels like a return to form for the developer. Dragon Age: The Veilguard gives us a beautiful world to experience, interesting companions to explore it with, and action that grows increasingly more nuanced throughout. PLAYSTATION 5 Critic Review Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a Dragon Age game like no other, and that alone will put some people off. But it brings with it the traditions of excellent character writing, strong world building through narrative quests, and offers the most exciting combat the series has ever seen. There is a stronger version of The Veilguard in here, one with more Solas and companion quests that find a more natural ending, but the one we've got is still a worthy successor to Dragon Age: Inquisition, and is a much needed return to form for BioWare.

Bloomberg Reporter Jason Schreier And Kotaku Senior Reporter Ethan Gach took it upon themselves to police what other publications (DualShockers) are allowed to say in their Dragon Age: The Veilguard reviews

The Dualshockers Review of Dragon Age: The Veilguard apparently contained a passage that said: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GbAkJJiW8AAcOtv.png It's a game that clearly has had a bit of the Sweet Baby Inc. treatment in spots when it comes to its character backgrounds and storytelling, and it's a game that is willing to offer fan service by giving old characters little cameo appearances but unwilling to truly cater to the wants and needs of long-serving Dragon Age fans. Yet despite all this, I still find myself weirdly enamored with this title because it's a very polished, satisfying, and enjoyable version of what it's trying to be. That may alienate Die-hard fans out there, but it seems that this is a new age for Dragon Age, and while it has its flaws, it's one that has started with a bang. We don't have an Original Archive of the review as far as I can tell, but we'll just take the word of Honest Schreier (Reporter at Bloomberg) here. Upon which he complained on Twitter about it, here is what he had to say: https://x.com/jasonschreier/status/1851031448993587232 https://archive.is/6Puci This, from a review on Metacritic (!), is truly unhinged - not just because of the dog-whistling, but because of the divine power that idiots keep ascribing to consultants. Hate to break it to you, folks, but the people making key decisions at game companies aren't on contract You can see various of his "colleagues" chiming in: https://xcancel.com/jasonschreier/status/1851031448993587232 Kotaku's Senior Reporter Ethan Gach pasted that bit from the review on his Twitter, stating: https://x.com/ethangach/status/1851007420971303114 https://archive.is/RLfHv This is utterly disqualifying He later added: https://x.com/ethangach/status/1851019285751267581 https://archive.is/fhuCn It's been stealth edited out This has apparently led to DualShockers changing their review, Stealth Editing and scrubbing references to "Sweet Baby Inc." and more, the entire paragraph now just reads: https://archive.is/HNBVE#selection-1865.1-1869.68 It seems that this is a new age for Dragon Age, and while it has its flaws, it's one that has started with a bang.
