How Dragon Age: The Veilguard reworks its class and skill systems

 

Dragon Age is a strange series among RPGs. Each entryhas changed up how it approaches combat, skills, classes, and more, with Origins being a more tactical RPG, 2 leaning into action, and Inquisition falling somewhere in the middle. Now that it has been over 10 years since the last Dragon Age, The Veilguard has the undesirable task of appealing to fans of each style of game as well as newcomers. A large part of that will come down to the story and execution, but it must also strike a fine balance in how it handles its RPG roots.
