@bmalsuj@ohai.social AFAIK, either EA or Bioware management wanted a DA live service game catered to a younger audience, so that's what they were working on. Then they scrapped those plans and tried to salvage what they could into a singleplayer game, resulting in Veilguard. And, of course, there was also Dreadwolf, the DA4 sequel which seems to have been planned to be the game fans actually wanted, but got canceled so the team could assist with Anthem, IIRC.
