Count me as one who'd love to see 'em back. Hawke was...alright. But the thing which struck me throughout DA2 was every mention of the Warden and their deeds. Not just the ripples the character sends off, but that feeling of, for lack of a better description, your character being so highly regarded even in this other guy's game. Even in the end it's like, "Hawke is gone...ok...?" before putting on a Sandal voice and proclaiming, "WARDEN?! WARDEN!"
I also wouldn't count out the possibility of seeing the character return as playable in the future. Just look at this topic alone. Look at everyone gathering onto the official DA2 board, stating how they miss the character. Like it or not, the character hit a note with a lot of people. The Warden was not only their introduction to the world, but their own personal epic level badass of it. Bring the Warden back and the advertising almost works for itself. I can almost see the teaser already. A silhouette in heavy armor standing in a darkened room beside a broken mirror. A narrator talking about the predicted troubles of the age of dragons coming to the fore as flashes of demons, templars, mages, darkspawn, qunari and battles between Fereldans and Orlesians flash in. The narrator ends with something along the lines of, "some believe only HE can bring peace back to the world." The silhouette turns, walks towards the camera and for a brief moment we see the Grey Warden crest etched across his chestplate.
Damn, that would be awesome. It would seriously give their marketing team something to work with. Gotta say, I'd be pretty excited to see something like that.
The problem is the warden has too many canonical endings. My canon
warden is busy ruling a kingdom with Anora, he has no time for
adventure.
Those kinds of things can be taken care of in the beginning. After that it doesn't really matter and only a few lines here and there would be needed to aknowledge that the character is king/queen or whatever. They could do something equivalent to an "origin story" to kick things off. Depending on how serious the situation is, the Warden may not have much choice but to go out and set things right (or reform things...depending on how you play your Warden).
