Will we be able to import a dead warden file?

My question is if there any import at all.

Likely.

I'm assuming, until more info is made public, that the import files are just for recognition of the various events that The Warden had an effect on: dalish vs werewolf, golems or dwarven freedom, alistair or anora, etc etc. Because you aren't The Warden, it doesn't seem to matter whether you killed them off or not.

If this is so, then this game won't be bad at all

Maybe the GI article already clarified this but I'm wondering if we actually import an actual save game or if its more like KOTOR2 where we have a checklist of sorts at the beginning of the game to set the Origins choices.

And conversely, if we do actually import a saved game Warden file, does it have to be Origins or Awakening and would it make a difference? Or maybe there is one last ex-pack in the works...one that gives closure to the Warden...and maybe deals with the Warden and Morrigan....pretty please, BioWare?:whistle:

To answer the first part of that; it's being said that within the GI article you do import a save file. I haven't seen/read the article yet, so I am unaware of how detailed the article gets on this matter. And because of that I'm not completely aware of the answer to the second part of your question. Only the people who got the GI early and the DEVs could answer. 

But! If I were to make an assumption, 'cause I do that a lot, I'd say it either wouldn't matter or it'd be the Origins file. Mostly because DA2 is a sequel to the Origins game, and not necessarily the Awakening expansion.

Which is why the ridiculous locked save files in DA:O ps3 MUST GO!



MUST GO!

Okay, so I completely forgot one thing about Awakening that makes it extremely unlikely to import Awakening saves: there wasn't an end save. When you finished you saw the scene and that was that.(actually, for me, it repeated the ending scene infinitely until I reset the game)

Thats true, but the big decision for Awakening has already been made at that point when it makes the last autosave before The Mother. Everything after that last autosave would be the same for everyone.

So technically, you can import awakening, cause I had to erase my Origin files in order to make room and transfer them (plus Leliana and hurlock vanguard)

Hmm...that may be true but, if you recall, when you go to import a character for Awakening you only select a character, and I believe it selects based off of the last  manual save. There wasn't an option to choose an auto-save file. If they do this with DA2, Awakening probably won't be an import option.

Mass Effect 2's import was done off an autosave.

Hopefully....

For me, it's the only save that's worth importing. The Ultimate Sacrifice is the one and only ending that closes the chapter of the Grey Warden, so I won't feel any bad about leaving my other PC for Hawke.

It doesn't make sense to start a new hero while the other one just vanished...

Haha, okay then. I guess I just got served since I never played Mass Effect. =P 
So the possibility of importing an awakening file is still there then.
