What I mean is, for the one person for whom it would matter most, there is no consequence. Whether you do the ritual, whether you attack Morrigan, the ending is the same: inconclusive, no finality, no answers. Whether or not you bought the DLC, you get the same treatment.
Well, you are correct, of course. I'm just not sure why so many people thought they were going to get conclusive answers in the first place. We know Morrigan is going to feature in the future of Thedas, so we were farily sure ahead of time you couldn't kill her. We also know that the policy Bioware us taking in the DA franchise (so far at least) is that every choice the player makes could happen, so they gave us the chance to act as our Warden would prefer (reconcile, attack, follow their lover, etc) but not actually spill an deets about a future they obviously intend to parcel out through many different games, probably over different media. I got what I expected; closure. The chacne to ask some questions I couldn't ask, the chance to see the effects of my choices on some of the parts of Thedas. Not as mnay parts as I would have liked (I would have really loved a scene at the gate of Orzammer, for example), but the story flowed in a logical manner. Would I have liked a few more answers? Hell yes! But I wasn't expecting many.
I guess we were led to believe two different things. I recall an ad campaign that promised answers, closures, etc. I didn't get any of that. And the entire DLC was just lame in general. Plus the bugged ending. It just feels like a C effort from a B+ average studio.
My Warden wanders off with Morrigan... to what? For what? What did she plan? Why did it matter?
All I got out of it was a brief lecture on how the changes in DA2 aren't at all bad and how Flemeth is really evil. All things I didn't need, and didn't want. You start the DLC, and you come out on the other side just the same.
My Warden certainly wanted to go with her. But what happens then? What is the mirror-world like, and why is she retreating there? What is my Dark Spawn like? What will come of it?
All things that could be answered later sure, but right now it's one hell of a cop-out.
