BioWare has revealed thatDragon Age: The Veilguardhas more lines of dialogue thanDragon Age: Inquisition.
In a recent interview withGamesRadar, creative director John Elper and creative performance director Ashley Barlow discussed the reason behindThe Veilguard’s decade-long development, and confirmed that one of the main reasons came down to the overwhelming amount of dialogue included in the game.
“We had other projects going on at BioWare as well. We wanted to make sure we got this one right,” Elper said before calling the upcoming role-playing game “the best version” the game “could possibly be.”
Barlow goes on explain that she has been working on the game for five years with the main cast and revealed that the game has a staggering 140,000 lines of dialogue.
To put that into perspective,Dragon Age: Inquisitionheld the series record of the most lines recorded, with88,000.
“It takes a long time to record 700 characters, you know - 80,000 lines or 140,000 lines with all the Rooks. It just takes time to make good,” Barlow added.
BioWare recentlyunveiled the castbehindThe Veilguard’s seven companions and the four voices behind the playable hero, Rook. The studio also attended San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) where those in attendance were able to meet some of the actors and also see a brand-new glimpse of the game showing “how bonds and connections will unfold through BioWare’s dynamic conversation system.”
