It's a common misconception that Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Baldur's Gate 3 are competing against each other. But, in reality, they're more like siblings who have grown up playing together. Both games are heavily influenced by the world of Dungeons and Dragons, and their similarities are what make them so special. Imagine two siblings, one who's a bit of a rebel, always trying new things, and the other who's a bit more traditional, sticking to what they know and love. This is what we have with Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Baldur's Gate 3.

The combat system in Veilguard is a perfect example of this. It's a bold departure from the traditional tactical systems of a TTRPG, and it's something that Larian Studios has mastered. Meanwhile, BioWare's previews of Veilguard suggest that they're taking a different approach, one that's a bit more experimental. This is what makes their games so exciting, because you never know what you're going to get.

But, despite their differences, there are some similarities between the two games. Both have a strong focus on storytelling and character development, and both have a sense of humor that's hard to find in other games. And, let's be real, who doesn't love a good game with a sense of humor?
