Will there be any difference between importing a character from Awakening instead of an Origin's one apart from having a more powerful warden? Could we be sure they will both use exactly all the same flags and will take in account all the decisions from Origin's ending?

The correct timeline for a Warden's story should be Origins -> Awakening -> Witch Hunt.. notwithstanding I remember some posts from Gaider where he said that the story of the Warden should be considered finished with the death of the ArchDemon; this was obviously before they announced this new DLC.
Moreover we always had the feeling that Awakening was playing only an optional role in our Warden's story, especially for the fact that you could also play it with a dead character.
And now they continue to point out that this DLC will be the "closure to Origins",that it will take in account "all the endings from Origins" and so on, like if this game was intended to be a direct continuation to Origins without any other story put between. There isn't any mention whether an Awakening character imported from Origins will act in the same way.

My question therefore is: Should we better screw up the timeline and import directly a warden from Origins in Witch Hunt even though the adventure is supposed to happen later than Awakening?
I won't have any problem in do it, if that would be the better way to play the DLC, just let me know it

An answer from a dev should be really appreciated
Thanks

I think there's a few different things that may be confusing matters.



In fairness, it is not always clear when we refer to "Origins" whether we mean DA:O solely, or the family of all products tied into the DA:O storyline branches/timeframe (e.g. the warden's story spanning DA:O, Awakening, Golems, WH, and potentially also the stand-alone DLCs like Leliana & Darkspawn) - we tend to use the term interchangeably.



WH supports continuing your Warden's adventure at any point either from Origins (DA:O solely), or Awakening, or Golems (e.g. the DA:O products involving the warden).



The better question is perhaps what do you want to do with your WH save moving forward. If you intend to import it into DA2 for example, then you may want to include the decisions made in Awakening and the other products - even if those are not necessarilly reflected in WH.

Speaking with the designers for WH, amongst many other choices, it will recognize and respond to both of the romance active and still in love flags. I believe the issue with Awakening was that it only responded to one of those, so you could get into a bit of a catch-22 where you either missed a part of the Origins epilogue, or the Awakening one depending on how you ended things in Origins.
