Max level is 50 and you got about 25 in DA2. Ofcourse it's not over.

[Psycho_Kenshin]

I don't feel Hawke's story is over... but Hawke's story continues on a pirate ship with Isabela in my book! If they continue his story and it's not on a pirate ship with Isabela, I don't think I'd buy it.

[MorningBird]

I feel like it's over.

[CrashTagger]

No, either cameo or playable, he'll return in DA3.

[hurricaneez1]

If it is they really screwed up the ending.

[Augustei]

Well we were told it was a 10 year timeline.. Dragon Age 2 took place over 6 years, so we should hopefully get the other 4... That and the "ending" certainly didn't feel like an ending at all, for the game or my hawke.. So yeah Hopefully we get some dlcs / exspansions to help wrap up Hawkes story

[Swordfishtrombone]

I would be very surpriced if Hawke isn't the main character of DA3.

Everything in DA2 seems to be geared towards creating a backstory for the hero of DA3. There's NO WAY the wide-ranging war that begins in the ind of DA2 can be adequately handled in DLCs. That seems a completely absurd notion to me. IF, for some bizarre reason, DA3 doesn't use the perfect setup of DA2 for a launcing pad for it's story, then Bioware have essentially made a cliffhanger ending that makes the end seem like just the start of the REAL business, for nothing. I don't mind the ending as it is, but if it turns out it isn't a setup for DA3, I WILL mind it.

I predict that DLCs will handle Hawke's adventures in the meantime, in a chaotic Thedas, before the character interogating Varric finds him/her. I don't think anything major will be settled in DLCs, or expansion packs.

The fact that Hawke disapears, "Just like the Warden," and there is an Eluvian present in both stories is not a coincidence.

[Spooky81]

No.

Unless Bioware does a complete 180, they made it clear Hawke is going to be the most important person in the DA series. I'd say he's going to be the primary character for future releases.

Which leaves me to wonder, will DA series follow every other template and end it all with a 3rd and final sequel, a trilogy?

[MICHELLE7]

It's a given that the story will continue for the dlc's but for DA3 it's probably over.

Very nice note, but how can the 3 of them be intertwined?

[EDarkness]

I don't think Hawke's story is finished, but I hope he's a side character in the next game.

[Suron]

its' actually not a simple yes or no.

actually I hope to god it is over. I want to play a protagonist that actually affects the outcome of a given situation again instead of just being along to watch it unfold and only becoming involved long enough to use his weapon(s) as a broom to clean up the mess.

forget Hawke. He's worthless.

I am hopeful the Bioware writers can figure out the how of it. Maybe wherever Morrigan went Flemeth went as well and she took Hawke and the Warden with her. Or Hawke and Flemeth go to kill Morrigan or claim her body and the Warden finds one of the other mirrors to save her. There are a lot of ways this all can play out. Maybe Flemeth puts aside any dislike of Morrigan she has or Morrigan has already been dealt with and wherever the Eluvians lead is where the now on going world war can be stopped. I also don't think for a second that the Tevinter Magisters are not going to see the rest of the mages in the world uprising as a giant opportunity to reclaim there empire.

I can see what you mean, but to be devil's advocate, the Warden could've ended up dead and/or might not have gone through the Eluvian with Morrigan.

But I would imagine we'll be seeing some DLC possibly an expansion where we get to have some more adventures with Hawke. The funky thing to some extent though is that they could easily interweave the stories in those into the 10 years that the main game takes place through. Be interesting to see if they did this if they interworked it so could be played both during and after the main campaign.

As for post-campaign DLC/expansions, am torn between wanting it and not wanting it, to some extent I like the 'mystery' of what happened to Hawke and the Warden (with reference to a live Warden of course). I think it is even more of a mystery for any that sided with the Templars and thus Hawke was Viscount of Kirkwall, definitly intrigued as to what would cause Hawke in this position to just 'disappear' also why they all left their side. Most of them I can understand off doing their own thing, but unless Aveline resigned as Captain of the Guard then she would now be a Kirkwall stalwart and no doubt continue having dealings with Viscount Hawke.

So back to the OP question, No, not really, just not sure whether I want the mystery of where Hawke went post-campaign delved into in DLC/expansions.

[MKDAWUSS]

Yes. Hawke ignited a war between the Chantry and the Circle. That was her role. She fulfilled it. Not much more left for Hawke to do.

[Wynne]

No, I don't think it is over. There's almost certainly an expansion coming.

Hawke just...completely lacks the charisma the Warden had.

The Warden had all the charisma of a cement block. So yeah, Hawke completely lacks that 'charisma.'

I'm really hoping not. I'm very attached to Hawke and would like to see more of her adventures, whether it's a DLC, expansion or DA3. Like many I'm sure, I don't want to see the companions just thrown away like they were in the DAO DLCs\\Awakening (well not all companions were obviously (so happy Wynne appeared <3), I would like more with the LI that isn't just a letter and isn't just hinted at in an epilogue that they're together).

If Hawke returns in DA3 - and were I not flat broke, I'd be willing to bet quite a lot that he does - it won't mean that the story is a similar "finding your way in the world" story that DA2 had. In fact, the ending of DA2 pretty much necessitates that if Hawke returns in DA3, he has a clear mission from the start: to end the turmoil in Thedas, to forge some sort of a new peace and a new balance between the mages and the templars. Curve-balls may come from the direction of the Qunari, or perhaps Therevinter.

In that respect, DA3 with Hawke would almost certainly return to the more traditional RPG storytelling.

The much maligned (by some) story of DA2 wasn't a mistake - it wasn't just the writers not being able to come up with a plot. It was a purposeful experiment, purposeful departure from the traditional RPG storytelling, where you have a goal that you know from the start, or almost from the start, and more or less clear steps to get there.

DA2's story was more like real life - you try to make ends meet, you try to get ahead, and at some point, you notice that you are embroiled in something bigger than you. Hawke is unlike previous bioware heros in this respect, but if (and when) he reappears in DA3, I'll be willing to bet he's graduated into the more clear-goal type hero of past titles.

Whether people will re-evaluate the story of DA2, once DA3 comes out depends much on how well DA3 exploits the foundation built in DA2.

No, but I am surprised by the Warden thing at the end. Thought Bioware actually did say his/hers WAS over.

As much as the Warden's story is over.

No!

[surfgirlusa_2006]

I think Hawke will be back in DA3, He/she is the one person who can "put the world back together" (as Varric says), so I doubt he/she will just disappear permanently. I hope this reappearance is in a supporting role, though; I enjoy playing as new characters in each game.

[EDarkness]

The Warden had all the charisma of a cement block. So yeah, Hawke completely lacks that 'charisma.'

I don't understand why people say the Warden didn't have any charisma.  Did people simply not read any of the dialogue options they selected?  The Warden had as much charisma as you put into him/her.
