One Big Change BioWare Is Making To Dragon Age Save Imports That Will Affect Everyone

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is looking to switch up how players' in-game choices are carried over from the previous instalments in the series, straying away from the norm of previous BioWare titles. The popular RPG series has always followed in the footsteps of its sister series, Mass Effect, allowing players to import their specific world state into the next game in the series.

In the Dragon Age series, this meant that players' major choices - and even some of the smaller, seemingly insignificant ones - had a ripple effect, impacting their subsequent playthroughs of Dragon Age II and Inquisition. How did you choose to end the Fifth Blight in Ferelden? Did you save the Stranded Elves' orphanage? Or did you opt for a more destructive approach in its stead?

Players have to look forward to a revamped process for carrying over their complex in-game narratives into the awaited DLC for the instalment in the ever-growing gaming universe of Dragon Age, having it diverging further from the save import history that the series, for the most part, used to follow. Regardless of how you decided to handle the conflict with the Stranded Elves, it all still came down to importing your world state to progress the in-game storyline.

Rumours appear to reveal how the team at BioWare are now choosing otherwise, providing potentially surprising new implications of 'how' your choices could directly affect and show results on your Dragon Age: Veilguard playthroughs.

For fans who've become familiar with the seamless gameplay navigation throughout Dragon Age and its unique storyline progression based on choices of players in all the instalments, we dive into how precisely it changed the entire set-up for developers and gamers alike.

While the gaming world is yet to receive an official word from BioWare regarding this matter, understanding that just one small decision might make a difference in the grand scheme could mean changes - both big and small - that might catch new gamers off guard, carrying well-known weight from their earlier in-game exploits on 'The Veilguard' RPG experience.

It is natural to wonder if these improvements could imply future games including the Mass Effect series may follow suit. A few fans were sad about some changes. Even so, The news has sparked gamers to start going back through previous entries, for another taste of everything that a Dragon Age title could possibly have to offer.
