Bioware mentioned Name of the Wind when discussing DA2's use of framed narrative.  (And DA1 had some likely NotW  homages with the mad hermit and the mage tracking.)  So why not go the next step and let DA3 use a Song of Ice and Fire structure where different "chapters" have different party leaders in different parts of the world.  This would allow for the Warden, Hawke and a new character to all play parts in an intersecting story that draws upon imported saves.  The new character could be your 'main' for the leveling portions.  And the Warden and Hawke could play important roles at various decision points.  And hey that's what I'd like to see.

If the Warden doesn't get a sequel, Hake doesn't get one either. Hawke can have his expansion, but that is as far as I'm willing to see it through. Dragon Age is suppose to be about Thedas.


unfortunatly for you its up to bioware.

Im all for Hawke being in DA3, dunno about past that. But everything said here so far is poop really. Non of us get a say what the next game will be about and none of us have seen what this one is about yet, who knows Hawke might not even survive DA2 there has be a good reason why hes not being questioned and Varric is.

DA:O The Warden is player character, while DA:2 Hawke character is merely a human called Hawke who might or might not be a follower. Anyway, If anyone want to play a follower role like Leliana in Leliana's Song for the cost of $60, so be it. But I pray, I will not be seeing Hawke anymore in DA3.


Uh, what. How exactly would Hawke"Might or may not be a follower"?

I suggest you read back from page 1 to get the general idea.

They said DA2's storyline may carry to DA3's storyline. If there is a war going on, then maybe many heroes will arise during it and one could be the PC.


And one could be a female Qunari!

Sorry.  Gotta keep the priorities straight.

yes I am aware that a lot of people are talking about Hawke maybe being a follower in DA3, But your phrasing makes it look like you are talking about Hawke in DA2.
English is probably not your first language, but don't get snappy with me please.

While I hope he'll be a DA2-only character, I don't want him magically "disappearing" like my Warden did at the end of Awakening, either.

Maybe we ought to get some idea of what happens with this character before judging whether the next game ought to continue off of that story or begin a new one.

Im hoping he wont be the main character of the whole franchise but if the story of DA2 ends in the way I think it will I wont be surprised if he is in DA3 (this is all still speculation anyway)

dont think the warden did magicaly dissapear, they left it open to your interpritation. If theyd had said "and then the warden went off to kill a thousand babies laughing as the bugger did so" people would be pissed. Use your imagination for the ending. The Wardens gone and i for one hope he/she dosent come back, let him/her rest ffs already saved the world once. RETIRE!

No. I have doubt about Hawke character due to the nature of story within story.

As the person who should be called Hawke, I find it difficult to accept that:

Varric is being interrogate by Cassandra. Therefore, we know Hawke is not present. We don't know what happen to Hawke except we know he's the Champion of Kirkwall. Whatever Varric's account, things already happen. We might see Hawke started at Loitering early in the game. But that event was 10 years ago. The shadow of Hawke's past. Not the real Hawke. There are already rumor that Hawke's story might end as cliffhanger, meaning we may never know for sure where he is by the end of the story. Thus, if we are Hawke, how can we don't know our present location and what happen to ourself. Are we even alive?

If I am wrong then can someone please explain or at least assure so that I don't feel lost about my own character.


I think this game will have a cliffhanger ending where we don't know what happens to Hawk. In DA3 we will probably have a new main character, probably another warden and we will meet Hawk and he will be a companion.

Well, I think the final act of the game will involve Hawke busting in to free Varric, then us playing him/her in the "present day", as it were.

You mean the player get to play everyone role in a bigger storybook? 
I'm sorry how does this intersecting story suppose be logical in human mind as individual? Are you expecting the player to experience storybook characters instead of personal adventure?

I don't care if she "retired" (i.e. died), it's that she simply disappeared. That's literally what it says. Feels like a cop-out, honestly.

Maybe because their waiting for the tech to appear so we can actually import the Warden without their appearences all rucked up? although for most of you PC players that really unavoidable since you mod the s*** outta your games. Or you know...The Warden might simply show up in another game in about 20 in game years.

They told the DLCs for DA2 will be focused on Hawke.
This could mean Hakwe won't die in the main story.

Is Hawke gonna become the Main Character for ALL the DA games? (like Shepard in Mass Effect)
What do you think?


The dlcs for DA:O were focused on the Warden. The Warden doesn't need to die in the main story. Yet he is not the main character for all the DA games.

Based on that observation I'm confident we will have other main characters in future DA games.

I hope not. I want more games where I get to create my own character rather than have one handed to me.

The reason the Warden isn't the main character in DA2 is because they switched to a voiced protagonist.  I don't suspect the reasoning holds for DA3.  Unless they plan on changing back to race selection and no voice.

They won't. 

Well, unless it's critically panned in DA2. But it won't be.

Until I see a voiced protagonist that actually works, I will ask for an unvoiced one in every single game.

I would think it was the other way round. They decided to have a more specific protagonist, with the result that they could make him voiced. I really don't believe that Bioware wanted a voiced protagonist so bad that this was the reason for putting the warden away. Unless, of course, there is source for what you said.

 No, just like our warden isn't "in all the dragon age future games" since Origins.

Thats not at all the reason because Gaider even said they was going to originally give the Warden a voice...but things never worked out and they regreted they never had one because they felt it was rather akward that everyone else spoke while you just stood there.
