One thing that I noticed is that the Post-Campaign Save, that is the
save that allow you to use the party camp and play the DLCs, was made
right next I killed the Archdemon, and before the Post
Coronation. So all the decisions that I did with the new ruler of Ferelden after the coronation will
not save if I import this save? And in the Post Coronation I was awarded with the Gwaren
Teyrn, even though it was not mencioned in the Epilogue, is that normal, or the choices that I did after the coronation are not important?

Nope, the decisions you make Post Coronation are not referenced in Awakening or any of the DLCs.

Are you sure? According to the Dragon Age Wiki, in fact there are some references in the Awakening epilogue. dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Epilogue_(Awakening)

For example (i quote the Wiki) :

If the Warden had chosen to "continue to serve the crown" in Origins, he/she will return to life at court in Denerim, and rumors suggest that he/she is the true power behind the crown. But a few years later, the Warden vanishes, and nobody knows why.


or

If the Warden had a romance with and chooses to follow Morrigan at the end of Origins, and none of his companions stay with him after the original epilogue, he leaves Vigil's Keep, and some claim that he chose to follow the dark-haired sorceress who fought alongside him during the Blight. Whether he found her or not, he never returns to Vigil's Keep again.


It seems these are references to Post Coronation decisions. Can anyone confirm?

EDIT : I also found this in another article of the Dragon Age Wiki (dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Romance_(Origins))

The ending of Awakening may reference the romance pursued in Origins, depending on the Warden's choices in the post-coronation ceremony.


Ok, so it seems it's clear, it is advisable to use a post-coronation save instead of the automatic post-campaign save...

Lik kattir khayrik ya Siham. Exactly what I have been trying to sort out, especially in light of the numerous references the wiki has been making to post-coronation saves, and so I'm bumping this thread. Is there anybody at all who can confirm that these decisions matter such that one would do better to import into Awakenings a manually created (after speaking with all companions) post-coronation save instead of a post-epilogue save (the automatic save created at the moment the archdemon is slain)? The reason this would be important is that the wiki has also been stressing that in order to avoid in-game continuity bugs (particularly into Witch Hunt--yes they are claiming this might be required even for the patched version), it is best to import into Awakenings an untampered post-Epilogue save, and yet such a save would carry no post-coronation decisions you have made, if indeed flags for these decisions do even exist.

I have a second question (third and fourth also) that's been nagging on my mind and is Morrigan related. One of my playthroughs involved a full romance with Morrigan at maximum approval, a night of love making, obtainment of her ring, but a refusal to participate in the ritual, thus forcing her to abandon the fight and flee (with the love relationship still active, the dialogue option 'do not do this--I love you' being available). However, during the post-coronation scene, upon being asked what my plans were, the option to seek out Morrigan was not available, although the epilogue still would acknowledge the romance and a pregnancy [not from the ritual]). Is it a bug or intentionally in the game's design that the option to seek out Morrigan cannot appear if the ritual is refused and she fails to participate in the final battle? The question that then follows is that in order for the Morrigan Epilogue screen in Awakenings to trigger, is it required only to have romanced Morrigan or must one in fact explicitly state to the monarch the intention to follow Morrigan and then make sure that decision is saved within a post-coronation save for importing.

I also noticed when importing into Witch Hunt that although the romance and pregnancy, as well as the refusal to perform the ritual, are all acknowledged correctly by Morrigan in the final scene, Morrigan still in the Witch Hunt's 'do not follow me' introductory scene that she narrates employs the line 'and slipped into the shadows' instead of the romance-based 'harder words I have never spoken'. Is this also intentional due to not performing the ritual or also a quirk I am wondering.

It is ironic how this question of the existence of any importable flags for post-coronation decisions seems to be one of the most vexing ones with contradictory opinions, but which would yet be the simplest for a game developer to answer (the answer does not look ever to be forthcoming at this point). I just found two conflicting answers to the question on the wiki's FAQ:
