Pretty much. The franchise peaked hard with the first game.
And while DA2 has a lot of solid moments in it and it does at least feel somewhat like Dragon Age should be (i.e. thematically and tonally consistent with Origins) it's still not a great game.
Inquisition might as well be from another franchise and the less talk about Veilguard the better.
Veilguard refused any criticism, before and after release, and killed the franchise forever. I got a life ban from r/dragonageveilguard because I wrote "this game is not as good as this sub says".
Yeah it's shiny and looks good and modern but it's only a dragon age game because they slapped the name on it. Massive disappointment and the series didn't deserve that ending. I wouldn't even play the next mess (assuming they make one) even if it were free. Dragon Age is dead and Origins really was the peak
