They are banking on nostalgia, because nostalgia is all they have left. After so many people have left I don't even know what to expect from a new ME or DA game.
Pretty much, is anyone from their golden age still even at the studio? Makes sense why they need to rely on their past hits if they can't make any new ones
All the key story writers are gone
That “cinematic trailer” they put out last for Dreadwolf was the same - it was just narration by Varric over still image artwork done in the style of Solas’ murals. Varric is such a fan favorite that of course they had his VA do the voice over. It was pure nostalgia bait. Ditto with the outfit the woman in the N7 clip was wearing - basically just Laura’s outfit in Shep’s colors.
Sorry, but at this point, I need more than nostalgia.
