Will have the "mature tone of the original trilogy".

Did we play a completely different original trilogy? Eg. framing Miranda's ass in every shot was super duper mature, y'all

They put way too much effort into it to not show it off.

Oh, so the krogan won't look like humans with weird heads? Or everyone else won't have funko pop proportions?

Dragon Age Veilguard shouldn't have been like that either.

It's such a great example of art direction versus graphics, honestly. Watching Skill Up's review I'd often go "oh hey, that lighting looks pretty good, those textures look nice" etc but thanks to the Pixarified people it still looks like shit whenever a person is on screen. I don't know why but the character designs make me think of cheap mobile games.

It's because it was leftovers from Dreadwolf which they didn't have enough time to change

Should have never even started such a mind numbingly stupid project. Shouldn't have kept any assets either.

Truth. Would have been better to start over... But too much financial sunk cost makes that impossible

Positive response? They obviously bought that, man.
