To the OP - I guess the closest example to this would be what we did with Shale DLC for DAO, in that as a full companion the character can join your party and has specific story content and quests written for it throughout the main game.


This is good news!

And if it was Anders I would go on to make several human sacrifices to the great Bioware. And then I'd make my Hawke give him a decent meal and try to get him together with a pretty girl. My Hawke wouldn't mind it if Anders shot lightining at fools either.

I vote for Sten. It would not be an exaggeration that I would be willing to stage a sit-in in order to get Sten. Oral sex might not be out of the question.

Ooo, let's derail this thread into a discussion of what we'd do to get the char we want, and who it would be. :D  What would you dooo-oo-oo for a Klondike bar!

The timeline restricts seeing old companions as new ones.

Quite true. Allthough it does allow for Alistair to make an apearance.

Awesome.  I really liked being able to get Shale while ingame vs standalone content. 

Also a bit of info with Alistair being in the Free Marches.  If you make him King it could be he is there to gain a treaty for grain since the Free Marches are known as the Bread Basket of Thedas per my CE walkthrough on the Free Marches, just a possibility. 

I hope it's not Oghren.  I will also opt for Zevran since he knew Isabela and if you don't kill him. 

The playable character could be someone new.  I'm looking forward to having this playable character.

Not if you don't acquire them until after the 1st game is over--the war vs. the darkspawn took, what, a year?  This game takes 10?  So it could happen.

I want my Sten.  :(  I misses him.

I'm hoping for a new char =) I don't know who they would be able to bring back since people do different things with their party. Well, for an example I don't have Sten come along with all my wardens, which means that he would die in Lothering. Would be a bit of a surprise if he turned up in DA2. I'm sure that if they really wanted that to happen then they write it into the story in some good way =) I'm guessing that it will be someone new.

Hmmm....

DAII will need a companion like HK-47/Legion/Shale. Make it so BioWare.


                                        -----Warning slight spoiler----


DA2 will definitely need a character like that! :o

Makes you wonder what bioware will come up with next considering they already made an android/geth/golem character in previous games, any guess's of what could be in DA2 anyone. :lol:

Oh & I think the companion is Anders



This isn't a bad guess considering the epilogue slide at the end of Awakenings for Anders.  It does say that Anders leaves the Grey Wardens and the Vigil for two months and then he returns to the Vigil for the rest of his days.

I was wondering if it might be Alistair, our Grey Warden (which would rock, I don't see this happening, just wishful thinking) or Anders.


I'd give bioware my first born if it's Anders.


I'd give Bioware your first born if it's Anders, too.  As punishment.  Ugh.  DEEKIN!!!

*cough* okay, no, I don't.  I am hoping it's like Shale.  Shale was Ossum.  Her story fit well into the overall campaign, (except for the very  beginning, but they had limitations on how to present that due to the fact that it WAS DLC).  It didn't feel like it was tacked on at all.  If I played DA: O without Shale, now, I'd feel like it was missing an important part of the story, whereas Warden's Keep and Return to Ostagar felt more like "Damn, I'm missing a few bits of sweet gear.  Oh well, I've got so much sweet gear now that I can't even fit it all on my NPC companions."

As for the quest vs. mission thing, I think a "quest" indicates an individual go-get-me-ten-garnets thing, whereas a mission is more of a whole series of quests strung together.  Of course, you could take that the other way 'round, too.  But if "bonus mission" means "now, 15% more fetch quests" imma be pissed.


I know what you mean heres hoping the BPC is like Shale not like hollow character like Zaeed & Kasumi in ME2 when it comes to interaction, well heres to praying its like that :innocent:

or

Who knows the BPC may surpass Shale in connection to story and interaction :devil:


Well hopefully someone from bioware will answer my reply to their reply of the OQ of this discussion, this should quell some of our fears or add some more. B)

How come you all just offer bodyparts, babies and blood to Bioware? C'mon, isn't it obvious that they prefer souls?



I actually liked the Origins NPCs more than Mass Effect (aside from Ashley, Tali and Samara). They had more depht in them and it wasn't always the "Oh, my childhood was so bad, my parents didn't care/were absolute asses but now I'm so strong thanks to.... you!?" story, in DA:O they were a lot more practical.

Funny enough, I heard somewhere I can't remmber where, that you can influence romances between characters causing characters to be romanticly involved with each other not just Hawke :whistle:

Will someone from bioware either confirm this or say its not true please :D

While that is true, its possible during the later years of the game past DA:O & DA:A that certain characters depending on choices made might make a appearence, though them joining is another matter. :P

Really want

1) Anders or a character not worse... A totally new character is a great idea, but he has to be really good )
2) The character to be available for romance
3) Mission = a number of quests, better having connection to the new character. Deep, coherent and interesting story.

And apart from the bonus content, reappearance of old characters is highly welcomed! Want to see Alistair again, and Anders... and Oghren... and everyone else )))

Edit: Thanks TheChris92 for reminding me:

4) The character must have many lines and dialog options and opinions, missions and stuff. In other words a normal character, relevant to the story, not just another combat party member.

While the guy may have been confirmed to be a voice actor for DA2, it doesn't exactly mean that Aliaster returning, he could be voicing a new character. :blush:

My guess is same, that the character will be new, since there is too many variables of who survives in orgins, my guess is that characters that survived orgins might make a appearce in DA2 with a scene, maybe offering a quest or becomes a temporary character at certain situations. :happy:
