Nudity and game world openness in Dragon Age: The Veilguard discussed by BioWare
BioWare explained a little more about Dragon Age: The Veilguard, particularly regarding the openness of the game world and some elements of romantic relationships.
From an extensive interview with Corinne Busche, game director of Dragon Age: The Veilguard , further details about the game emerged, particularly regarding the openness of the game world , its structure and even the love stories with scenes of sex and nudity .
As for the openness of the world, this also depends on the way in which the game has been set up: it is not an open world , but rather a mission game, so in each of these we are sent to explore various interconnected areas but without real freedom of access anywhere and at any time.
“Dragon Age: The Veilguard is a mission-based game . Everything is hand-crafted, hand-crafted, very thoughtful. We believe that’s how you get the best narrative experience, the best moment-to-moment experience.” This too, therefore, abandons the totally open mechanics to return to a more closed structure, which allows greater control of the narrative by the developers and greater attention to detail.
“However, along the way, the levels we enter open up and some of them are more explorable than others”, Busche further added, “Branching alternative paths, mysteries, secrets, optional content to find and solve. So yes opens, but it’s a highly polished, mission-based game.”
Closed world divided into areas and missions, open love
For BioWare this is a return to the origins, given that the large, or semi-open, structure is a classic feature of RPGs of this type, which allows for greater guidance in the construction of quests.

Regarding romantic relationships, further clarifications have been made.
In sex scenes there may be more or less explicitly visible nudity, this depends on the level of “sensuality” of the characters involved, with some proving to be more passionate than others.
As previously reported, Dragon Age: The Veilguard will allow you to have romance with all companions , regardless of gender, but it is also possible for companions to have romantic relationships with each other , which can happen when, for example, we do not pursue a romantic relationship with one of them, who (or she) may then decide to seek “company” in someone else.
