Well, it's tricky here.

First choice, I want to play my Hawke or/and Warden again. No DAO/DA2 NPC for sure, I'd hate having to play Cassandra simply because she's not my character.

Second choice, a new character that would go looking for the Warden and Hawke. They both disappeared at the same time (remember that it's stated that the Warden disappeared 10 years after the Blight Events, and so did Hawke), so I really want to know what happened to them and their companions... AND their LI if they romanced someone. I doubt they disappeared with them.


They could make this really good or bad with how the game left off, where they are is up to where David wants to carry it and no one knows at this point. I would not mind getting to have the pick of The Warden and Hawke in DA3 or a exp pack, that would be a really cool story arc.

New character that is forced to kill one or both. I'd put money on that one.

I want Hawke to dead, buried and forgotten. If I wanted a fixed voiced over character I'd play Mass Effect. If Hawke gets brought back for DA3 I'm quite simply not buying the game.

I'd prefer either the Warden, which is tricky, or a new character with multiple origins again or at least the ability to choose your PC's race. Preferably without voice over so more resources can be dedicated to companions and NPCs, while Hawke's party was good they just felt shallow compared to DAO or even DAA's characters.

You know what would be kind of cool (albeit costly) idea? Having three protagonists. One could be a new hero, with the other two being Hawke and the Warden (replaced by the Orlesian Warden from Awakening if the Warden is dead). Like I said, it would be VERY complicated, but brilliant if executed correctly.

However, the only downside would be the story and narrative would have too be far more focused, thus, decreasing the amount of choices and decisions the player could possibly influence throughout the game.

Would prefer hawke to return with some of the dragon age 2 cast, the LI's and Varric preferably.

I dearly hope you are disappointed. Only one I would tolerate back is Varric.

@ neppakyo - dude, we get it. You hate Hawke. You're starting to sound a bit like a broken record now.

Not snark, I'm just being real. You say this everywhere all the time.

I wouldn't need the Warden or Hawke back although I enjoyed both. Wouldn't hate it, though, to get to know something beyond "they disappeared". If they decide DA3 is supposed to be like DA2 with a new protagonist in a new environment with new characters then I'd be happy :)

A new character for DA3, the warden story had a good run in the DA:O and its Expansion's/DLC's. Hawke will hopefully have a good run in Expansion's and DLC's for DA2.
Then in DA3 because of voice problems with our mute Warden, he/she will make one or several appereances, something like being watched from a distance when he/she fights off darkspawn or something like that, just to show off.
Hawke can make one or several apperances in fighting scenes or side quests and he/she can also be voiced while doing so. But neither one of them need to have any huge impact on the outcome of that game, just something small. No need to be playable either.

The outcome of if or how they will appear in the game must relate to what you did in previous games, including it's DLC's/Expansion's otherwise it won't make any sense. The Warden and Hawke's looks must resemble that of the one you played to make it more personal for the gamer.

So a new character for DA3, along with lots of game improvement.

Why all the hate for Hawke? Completely axing the character (especially after DA2's cliffhanger) would be a waste of potential and would render DA2 more useless than it already is.

hawke isn't shepard.

The story was average, nothing great, the writing was pretty good in most places, hawke just doesn't feel like a good character to play. I want a character to roleplay.

Give back choices like in DA:O, if sticking with VA, use the same VA for each race, maybe different lines.

If I want something like Shepard, I'll play ME. I like ME. Just keep it out of DA.

I'd be more than happy to forget DA2 existed.

*shrugs*

It's gonna be SHEPARD! Or the Dragon Age equivalent of Shepard, Hawke.

Seriously how hard can that be to think of who we're gonna play in DA3? We never even saw our main character after Varric's story, of COURSE we're gonna be Hawke. Durrrrrrrr.

I want to have Hawke play a role in DA3, either we play as him or he is heavily involved. Maybe as a mentor or something.

If anything, I believe Hawke wasn't a poor character, just poorly written/implemented. The main flaw with Hawke was that he/she contributed little in the advancement of the plot, and did even less to influence it. Its a flaw that doesn't break the character for me, but one that I hope is severely addressed in DA3 (assuming Hawke is in it).

A new character. I'd like to see hawk and the warden make cameos and return but I like having a new character.

Hawke not contributing to the plot isn't really a flaw in Hawke, it's a flaw in the plot, IMO.

I role played Hawke, got 4 different Hawke's at the moment, all different. Sounds to me like your problem is with the system rather than the character.

How can they give back choices like in DAO if they keep the VO? You mean show the whole lines maybe as a subtitle? I agree they should have that as an option if though I wouldn't personally use it. Or do you mean the number of choices? On average DA2 may have been slightly less but not greatly so. One thing that occurs to me is that having the investigate option makes the number of relevant lines seem much less in DA2 than in DAO, whereas in reality those investigate options were there in DAO they just weren't segregated as such.

Completely new main character. Main character starts in his/her home town (assumed he from now on), and befriends/falls for a boy/girl (assumed girl from now on) who is an apostate who lives alone and doesn't know her family, parents or heritage. The apostate leaves, being driven by forces she doesn't understand, and goes on a journey of self discovery. The apostate travel from place to place, finding information on his/her identity and seeking something. Fearing demonic possession, the protagonist follows out of love or to stop her (if a chantry supporter) and gradually pieces together the true background of the apostate.

The journey takes him through some parts of Ferelden, the Dragonbone wastes, and the Tevinter imperium, and finally to the fade, where you find out (potentially from Morrigan herself depending on previous game choices) that the apostate is Morrigans child and has part of the soul of an old Tevinter god who has now become tainted. You finally face your love in the Black City itself, where you can either kill your love, persuade her to somehow exorcise the tainted god from her or join her in some dark destiny.

Sorry, got a little carried away there...

They will streamline it with both The Warden and Hawke, both voiced and their fight over whats right and wrong will cross paths, depending on what you pick they could end up helping each other or be at odds. The Warden will be the suprise character in the new trailers and you will only hear of his/her voice giving a speach, then it shows The Warden's "defult" look and armor like that of Hawke. It's right there in front of us and we don't see it. One trailer is that of Varric giving a speech about Hawke and the one he never thought he could find but he did and that how it could cost him/her their life.... cut sene "Warden" symbol shows with "StarFang" Sword. Varric..but the real question was...would this legend help us? Could be EXP or DA3.

The book at the end of DA2 opens up with a pic of both of them side by side,and Varric....saying but would they stand with each other or pick sides.....That was the hard part I would have to find out myself.
This is Varric writting the story as he goes along as they look for them. "They" being Cassandra and Leliana. "Varric but would the two be what they once where or something far more darker......only time will tell...Maker help us all. This above is DLC or a EXP that leads to DA3

The above what I call is "crap" was give to me by someone that says they "know" what the story is to be about and we will pick two stories.....that of Hawke and that of The Warden and thus, play that part out.

I think it's crap but hey, I would love that kind of game, think of the choices you would have to make and if you picked a path that either Hawke or The Warden is not inline with..well you get the picture.

 I imagine that it would be easier to have the PC either be a new protagonist or have it be the Warden. With the new art design, if the Warden is to make an appearance - the fact that he/she disappeared seems to indicate that the dev team isn't quite done with the Warden just yet - then he/she would have to be redesigned by the player. A dead Warden but alive Hawke would probably have the Orlais Warden (Awakening). 

Hawke obviously isn't done yet and since DA2 does keep track of how Hawke responds in DA2 and I can't imagine the art design changing all that much, it would be possibleto have Hawke as a character we meet along the way - though I'm sure many would object. 

If a totally new protagonist or Hawke is created and then there would be no way to avoid pissing a lot of players if the Warden is met.

I hope they do something like in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. You switch from Hawke's point of view to the Wardens throughout the game then about half way through they meet up, join forces and fight whatever is threatening Thedas together. Perhaps Boiware will make a new PC and you have 3 point of views throughout the game.

I'd like DA3 to happen many many years after the kirkwall events, as a young newbie assassin who was forced to become assassin that successfully assassinated a very very important critical event figure later on in-game that paved the way for the rise of the remaining archdemons and a massive darkspawn invasion of thedas, as my idea of story goes, he/she must right the wrong he/she(hero) did and while adventuring meets up with DA:O and DA2 veterans, with zevran as mentor and if the save games from DAO and DA2 can be imported or not, meet up with both the warden and hawke... and i do like the game to be voice acted :)
