Dragon Age: The Veilguard directors say they would've loved to explore "what lies beyond the sea" and add new classes in the DLC we're never getting

BioWare still doesn't plan to release any new "story content" or expansions for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, but the game's co-directors have revealed what they would've added in the hypothetical DLC that we're never getting. 

In a new Reddit AMA with directors John Epler and Corinne Busche, Dragon Age fans were keen to know more about the most niche lore tidbits, what the sequel's ending means for the series' future, and, of course, whether or not we'll be getting more stuff in the future.

John Epler instead focused on all the possible locations Dragon Age could still touch upon.

"It shows up a lot in Bellara's content - what happened in the parts of the world that weren't Thedas? But Kal-Sharok is another place I'd love to spend more time in.
