My Warden is chilling with Morrigan in an extra dimensional realm raising Baby Cthutulu

Ill miss them, but im glad to move on to another story.... im tired the "dark" storylines... DA2 is like that too, but im hoping my guy can survive at the end without having to screw a mean **** to live hahaha

My Warden didn't and lived. Anyways, the Warden single-handedly prevented the lose of thousands upon thousands of innocent lives by stopping the Archdemon before it could summon the true potential of the Blight. Plus, I imagine my Warden becoming the Commander of Ferelden's Grey Wardens.  

So yes, I am content with the ending to my Warden's story.

I think its kind of dumb to switch to a new character, i personally think the Hawke character is as generic as they come, so do most of my friends, and none of them are getting DA2 now because of it, I wonder if this will translate to less sales overall or not.



Threads on most of the game forums show a rather large distaste for the Wardens story not returning, I understand that most of the people on here will follow BioWare no matter what they do, but from what Ive seen, most people look negatively on the character change.

I was upset at first, because when i was playing DAO, i thought id be continuing on into DA2 with the Warden. Then i was very upset when i found out. Not anymore, but im not really looking forward to playing Hawke either.

I dont wanna make another thread that is the same lols i looked but couldnt find a thread like this, i found a "is the wardens story over" thread but i want to know if people mind.  So if this is a double post just close it.

Anyway, does anyone else mind that the wardens story is over? Personally, i dont. Now i loved all my wardens, i felt a great connections with them that i havent felt in another RPG before (i tried to play ME but i am just terrible with shooters, i want to play it but oh wells). I will always care for my wardens and i will miss playing with them (lol sounds dirty :innocent:) but i am happy with the new story, i will admit i was upset for a little bit but then moved on. Hawke sounds cool and from what we have heard of DA2 it sounds so cool.

What about everyone else? 

I want my Warden to fight bad guys all throughout the Dragon Age until he's 85 and he's joined by his kids, grandchildren and great grandchildren. By the time I reach the final DA game he'll be able to look at enemies and cause them to turn inside out.  Half the screen should be filled with row upon row of talents and spells.

The Warden killed his reapers; what else can possibly top such an accomplishment? And besides, there are far too many variables to consider with Origins ending - are you the king/queen consort of Ferelden? Did you "follow" Morrigan during Witch Hunt? Is the Warden leading the Denerim alienage? And so forth. Plus, the Warden can die. None of these scenarios are impossible to implement if Bioware wanted to continue the Warden's story, but it would be quite an undertaking to consider all the possible outcomes of Origins endings.

Sorry to, uh, burst your bubble, but the Darkspawn corruption is going to kill your Warden in his mid-fifties early sixties.

Most consumers will be lead around by the nose. I can almost guarantee that a year, year-and-half from now when rumors of DA3 begin to surface, nearly everyone will have forgotten the Warden and will be clamoring for Hawke's return.

Hmmm? Whats that? Mass Effect 2 is on line one.

I didn't say it was impossible, just difficult to implement. 

[slimgrin]

I don't mind and here's why: the plot in DA was not its strong point. Characters and dialog were.

If they move on to something new, something a bit more creative for DA2, I'm all for it. Being tied to our Warden's story wouldn't allow that.

Edit: whoops, DA not DA2.

He would have lived to the ripe old age of 240 without the taint.  He's too bad ass to only have 30 years at level 520.

 You are correct there, people get told what they will like and then go out and buy it lol

Perfect example of why killing the protagonist and then resurrecting him is a terrible idea.

[panamakira]

I will miss my warden. I hope they pick them up later in some other game but as of now I'm excited for DA2. So I'm ready for Lady Hawke!

[dreadpiratesnugglecakes]

I like the idea of the Warden story ending. They made a big deal about the 30 year lifespan. Morrigan saved you from dying in the battle but you can't escape the taint. Even Duncan wasn't far from his trip into the Deep Roads. It's a lonely road for the Grey Warden. My first playthrough of Fallout 3, my character sacrificed himself; I wasn't even ready for that ending. I don't like my guys dying at the end of the game, but I'm not sad to let them go and start a new character. No, I'm looking forward to playing Hawke and starting a new story.

Well, it could have been the deepest, most interesting part of the game, but they didn't develop it nearly as well as they could have.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, for instance, wouldn't have been the same game if the main character hadn't been executed at the start of the game.

The variable endings dont really mean that much when it comes to giving the consumer what they want, other than the Wardens death (which like most games, can be resurected as this is a Fantasy game lol), could lead back into a continuation of some sorts, its not too difficult to imagine,

BioWare wants to market Hawke and make more money while having to do less work, I understand that is probably the main reason the game will have less content and user imput, but im pretty sure if they keep switching characters, the charm of this series (which seems to be ending with DAO), will wear off in a big hurry.

Style will only carry the game so far if the substance is not there, and for me, there is absolutely no substance in the character Hawke, I dont like his voice, and thats what kills the immersion for me.

I guess I just prefer the silent character and I can insert my own "voice" in the dialogue, perhaps thats why I appreciate the Warden more than I could ever appreciate Hawke,

I'm calling shenanigans on this. You haven't even played the game, how can you comment on the "substance" of Hawke's story?

[lazysuperstar]

Yes I did initially. Having spent hours on this character, would have liked to know how it ends. But I am equally thrilled to play a new character / another story and from what I've read / seen, I am not going to miss playing a GW a lot when I get DA:2

You have yet to play DA2. Who knows, you may end up liking the game more than Origins. Plus, DAO was never hyped to continue into DA2 like they did for Mass Effect; some games don't need to revive the same characters to be great.

Can't really argue against a preference can I? =p

I was eluding to the game being shorter with less custimization, had nothing to do with the plot line...

[KnightCommander]

I personally will miss my wardens they started the series with them and now left hopefully the next Da3 will be a pr-equal how the wardens were formed or following the drydens at wardens keep lots of history to use/play,or they could carry on where they left off at another location as they have left it open,What do you guys think?? I am looking forward to playing as hawke and the rest of the gang and hopefully we will get lots more dlc after a few months.

I respect peoples opinion because their game did not end the same way that mine did, I have no problem with that at all, Im just expressing my displeasure with how the game seems to be going, I genuinely want to like DA2, but likely I wont even buy it for the reasons I mentioned, I just dont find it appealing as I did before.
