Actually, BHRamsay's idea would be pretty epic, it gives us a sense of continuity, but allows a new story with new characters.

Morrigan's old god baby......Arthur, Morgana and Mordred.....been there, done that, saw the movie (Avalon) and met the mage (well sorta).



I hope it's something completely different. After all, don't we have an entire world and century of Dragon Age to explore?



I'd love to go back to an earlier time and live through whatever terrible calamity occurred to the Elves when they lost their first great empire.



Or deal with a political uprising in the current age....I like the idea of dealing with a Quinari invasion. That would be very interesting as well.

Oh god, don't bring up Revan. I still haven't gotten over that yet

What I would like to happen in DA2 is the continuation of your character from origins, and the enemy will be a qunari invasion, and the first warden corrupting the grey wardens in the anders (sorry if i have the wrong country), completely taking control of the country and largely deviating from what grey wardens are suppose to stand for. The darkspawn will take a very small role in all of this. They'll be there, just they'll have more of a role like the geth did in mass effect 2. This would be understandable for the darkspawn to have this kind of role because, based on your actions in awakenings, the darkspawn will either be too busy trying to find the next archdemon, or will be fighting amongst themselves.

I think with a plot like that, it would be able to bring up a number of different morality choices for the character. Some examples i can think of would be:
Do you support the First warden? you may or may not have supported alistar in his bid for the throne, which will result in consequences from characters in the sequel.
How do you deal with the Qunari invasion? you are, after all, a grey warden. should you not remain neutral in all of this? grey wardens fight darkspawn, not qunari.

Another thing I would find acceptable if the developers/writers wanted to deviate from the grey warden in origins, is to have either the prologue/ tutorial or epilogue with your grey warden from origins as the temporary main character. He/She is in the Deep Roads or, hell, maybe the fade. Ambushed numerous times by foul things, the grey warden keeps pushing forward for some unknown reason. You could say that your warden was evenstraining, grasping to reach their goal. And then they find it. The Black City.... or an old god..... or *gasp* morrigan. end scene, either move on with DA2, or wait till DA3.

I haven't really gone over this so i apologize for any mistakes.

You know I wish there was a class/strat/quests area for non spoilers lol....

It's currently accepted that Dragon Age 2 is in development. The date given was 2-11-2011, but I don't know if it's been confirmed, or even that this particular date is in reference to the sequel release. The little card that came in my Awakening case had nothing on it but a date and the Dragon Age logo.

[wwwwowwww]

I personally would like to see something along the lines of the rise of the elves, where they finally band together and fight back. With that story line you can tie in a lot from all the games I think.

[Vicious]

I am betting the game will take place in Orlais, the Protagonist/Main Character will be a Chevalier, which is the easiest way to mimic the Grey Warden ability of 'do whatever the hell I feel like' since Chevaliers can literally do whatever the hell they please to the common folk.

And if you are specially empowered by the Empress of Orlais, well even better.

Because, simply, it's a BIOWARE game, and in every Bioware game you either need to be of a special lineage or a member of a special order or unique school. Seriously, no Bioware game breaks from this.


As to WHAT the game will be about? Hard to say. They could make a game of dragonslaying and political intrigue with the Chevalier racing against time to aid whomever he's loyal to, the Empress or her Court mage from Ferelden who is keenly interested in removing said Empress...


But yeah. The Warden is OUTTA HERE, and I predict that a new yet similar character will take his place.

If that's the case they'd better get working on those DLC's because "Darkspawn Chronicles" looks to be nothing but an alternate timeline romp that'll add nothing nor solve anything story-wise and the Awakening expansion added a lot more loose ends to be tied up. 

There are multiple teams working on multiple DLC. That said, they have zero responsibility to close the book on the Wardens. For most people he is their baby and he could be off with Leliana in the deep roads, off with Zevran taking over the Crows, Married to Alistair and Queen, chasing a ghost AKA Morrigan, married to Anora as her prince, etc etc ad nauseam.

It's best if they just let imagination fill in the blanks on the Warden. Because there are so many ways his story can go, and they will have to pick ONE,  which does EVERYONE ELSE a huge disservice.

Morrigan only needs to have sex with a male who'd survived the Joining.  As I recall, we never did account for the missing Old God blood from the GW Vault that makes the Joining possible.  Since Morrigan knows about the Joining and her Dark Ritual, it only stands to reason that she would also know how to manufacture the Joining blood.  Who's to say that she did not enchant a sucker or ten to take the Joining and have sex with whomever survived it.  This would get-around your PC knowing about who impregnated her.

Oooh, Excellent work there chief.

Unless for some strange reason it gets scrapped, then yes the game is being made.

I'm not sure what the rules are about what can be said etc, but I do know that there is definitely a Dragon Age II.

[Nu-Nu]

All I know it'll be set a few years after awakenings expansion. The epilogue says my warden suddenly disappears from the castle but her story isn't over yet...



We still have the architecture main goals to contend with but I don't think he be the one she suddenly disappears for without telling anyone. I think she gone to help Morrigan and her child which she somehow manages to concieve with or without your help or either the warden got kidnapped by the architecture, again becasue your blood is special...



Alistair probaly be back seeing as he says he can't help you "for now" in awakenings, which means he can help later...?



You also have to stop the blight from coming back for good, awakenings hinted at that.

[Lintanis]

If Bioware planned it on being a trilogy from the start then they have might all the story worked out and it might just be your character that goes thru the entire game,  with DLC,s and expansions dealing with the other companions etc

The Grey Wardens live inside Anders? That doesn't sound right.

[DJRankine]

I think one thing to think about for DA2 is the kind of character we will be playing.



Whether we keep our character from Origins, or make a new one, it's gunna be very likely that we will still be able to choose from Human, Elf or Dwarf (possibly even other races like Qunari), this means that the main storyline will need to be something that can incorperate the possibility of the PC being any of these races - this works for Grey Wardens as they can recruit anyone from anywhere.



So, if in DA2 you do not play as a Warden, then the main story needs to be something which doesn't narrow down your PC to being one race. (E.g. if the Chevalier theory was the case, the PC would have to be a human warrior).



I suppose an invasion of Fereldan would do the job, whether it be from the Orlesians or Qunari or whatever, Humans/Elves could be recruited into the army, and Dwarves.. I guess if you made that choice you could play as a surface Dwarf who gets involved?



Unless of course they made different stories for different races... but that would take a lot of work, and so I don't think they will do this heh.

[Suron]

I just hope it doesn't deal with another Blight. The Darkspawn are kinda cool but really don't have much depth. With the story from Awakenings and the Architect they can certainly add more depth and interst to them...but no blight..I mean we only have what..2 more to go anyway?



that said..also wouldn't mind if it dealt with the "god-child" (sorry guys, I believe there MUST be a "canon" ending set to be able to move the story forward without making DA:O irrelevant)..however care must be taken that it doesn't just scream Baldur's Gate Child of Bhaal ripoff (which it's already too dangerously close too.)



but yah...it doesn't even have to deal with the darkspawn at all much less a blight...let's see a REAL antogonist (and no the architect was a joke, you hardly saw him..and the "mother" had hardly any time either)...

[C9316]

I personally think that the game will be set mainly in Orlais because I think Morrigan is somewhere around orlais and it will revolve around Morrigan's god child possibly the main antagonist will be Morrigan or a revived flemeth trying to posses the child and eventually you have to choose to either let it survive ro kill it I also think a secondary problem will be the disciples of the architect because regardless of whether or not you killed him his disciples are still stewing in the deeproads biding their time in my opinion

[Tinxa]

I'm also hoping the darkspawn won't be the main enemy anymore, after DA and awakening I've had enough of them.

I'd like it if the main plot would be some sort of mystery you uncover. That the main antagonist isn't known to you right away. I think that would be fun for a change and give you a storyreason for sidequests since you're investigating clues and aren't in a hurry to prevent the end of the world.

I think that it is very very likely that the old god baby will play an important role in the future. It doesn’t matter if the dark ritual was completed in DAO as either way the Epilogue has Morrigan heading west over the mountains towards Orlais.
 
There is also the suggestion of a blight on the way for Orlais so it is quite feasible (and likely imo) that Morrigan could offer this ritual to some Orlesian warden. We wouldn’t have to be involved in the ending of this blight.
 
I also think that it is quite easy to bring together the warden, the various LI characters and some new characters – maybe including faces from awakenings. My characters pretty much always end up with Zevran but that doesn’t mean that I don’t want to see Leliana, Alistair etc in my squad in a sequel.
 
As to what the story will be? I’m not sure

As long as Oghren and Anders are compainions I'm good generally my PCs become good friends with Oghren and convince him to have a better role in his kid's life and for my canon Elf Mage PC I kinda view Anders as my whacky apprentice

I'd be happy with that, My PCs really can't stand Oghren I'm afraid, but this is one of the aspects of the game that I love... that the characters are well written and acted to a degree that can generate any reaction either positive or negative and that there is someone for everyone.

After reading through the various speculations here's what I think would be interesting -



Its 20 years later and Our character is the Morrigan/Male Warden/Old God Offspring - aka Baldurs Gate with the Dragon Age twist. The characters from DA:O could cameo in DA:2. This could be a tale of personal growth/moral choices/ etc.



The gather armies/ greater good / god/king/country stuff is annoying, I want personal events that affect and possible make me care about my toon. If some Friggin Dwarves/Elves/Humans/etc can't solve their problems, I don't want to have to solve them for them, I want the option to walk away or help or just kill them all (my choice), but the story can continue with what I decide. I hate having to solve other peoples problems.

I'm not sure of the idea of playing as the god baby, but I think it is possible that the god baby/child may be in need of protection in DA2,  it seems likely that the child could have potential of great good or great evil. If so dark forces would likely be seeking out this child to corrupt it to whatever their evil plan might be. The threat to the child may cause Morrigan to seek the help of her old friend/lover for help.
