Dragon Age: The Veilguard's extensive character creator has been a hot topic leading up to the RPG sequel's release, but one former BioWare lead has come to the game's defense.
Responding to a tweet questioning the point of character creators in general - which itself was in response to a tweet about The Veilguard - former Star Wars: The Old Republic combat designer and current Boss Fight creative director Damion Schubert argued there's "a sizeable number of players who spend huge amounts of time in character creation... some will spend more than an hour there." He even pointed to the ludicrous Baldur's Gate 3 stats that revealed players spent a collective 8,196 years making their own protagonists.
