Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance. A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games.
If you've ever heard the old radio dramas based on Sherlock Holmes stories you'll know the joy of listening to actors crisply enunciate a conversation while accompanied by a soundscape of footsteps crunching on gravel. Expect something similar except with more arrows twanging and spells being whooshy in Dragon Age: Vows & Vengeance, an audio drama in podcast form being produced as part of the build-up to Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
A prequel to the game's story, Vows & Vengeance is about a retired thief searching for her lover in the Fade, with seven of the series' eight episodes also highlighting a guest star companion from the videogame. Harding, for instance, the much-loved dwarf scout from Inquisition, will co-star in episode two. Based on the teaser, we can expect to hear characters like Solas and Varric pop up as well.
It's reassuring that BioWare is going hard on narrative support for The Veilguard, with this podcast joining the short story anthology Tevinter Nights and a comic called The Missing as explicit tie-ins—not to mention the Netflix series, which I suspect will factor into the plot as well. It's a reminder of past efforts like Dragon Age: Redemption, the web series created by and starring Felicia Day, which tied into a quite decent expansion for Dragon Age 2.
After years of speculation about whether Avowed takes place before or after Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian casually revealed it's a sequel through a preview quest poking fun at the events of Pillars 2
