Why have I read from several posters that the DR has been canonized?
1) Because they want it to be. My guess is that the vast majority of people did the ritual -- either because they were screwing Morrigan anyway, or because it is the easy way out that doesn't cost the player anything, or both.
2) Because she seems to be the devs' pet character. Morrigan has been hyped massively ever since before the release of Origins. Face of the game and all that. Her sex scene was all over the gameplay demos and trailers. And after Origins, the devs said her story wasn't finished yet. Which seriously aggravates me, to be honest. I don't want to play "Dragon Age: Morrigan". I don't like her, I don't think she's interesting or important at all, nor is she needed at all for the first game. If Morrigan was to be so important, make HER the protagonist. Don't force her down people's throat repeatedly.
To be honest, it would really bother me if the DR was canonized. I'm not sure how any self-respecting "good"-aligned character would ever consider going that route from an in-character perspective.
Likewise. I have no problem with the ritual being an option, it actually makes the choice to sacrifice yourself more meaningful. I also have no problem with people liking a character and plot hook that I personally loathe. But I don't want it forced down my throat because it would break my own immersion and continuity. I don't want
anything retconned into canon, including my own choices.
I may have missed something, but at no point during Origins did Morrigan demonstrate any child-rearing skills whatsoever, and it's highly likely the god-baby turns into the same maladjusted, survival-at-all-costs (with the occasional chaotic stupid hiccup that Morrigan is prone to) outcast that Morrigan is.
Amen. I'd consider it child abuse. And we're not talking about any silly diaper-soiling rugrat here but about a reincarnated Old God who might yet explode back into full Archdemon-hood the moment darkspawn go near it.
Flemeth, I don't mind seeing again. She was rather fun in a freaky and dangerous kind of way.
