I approve fully. As long as the boss battles play out something like this.

And so I finally understand the Inigo Montoya meme. Yes, I was too lazy to google it before. My laziness knows no bounds.

I think an Exalted March could be an interesting backdrop for a DA game, although I don't want to actually march in one. Maybe you could affect some of the war's outcomes, minor or major; maybe the war could have a drastic, unpredictable affect on you.

I'm all for the anti-exalted march against the bloody Chantry and the Templars, nothing would be more enjoyable then to see them crushed and stomped on.

Personally, I'd rather just go on an adventure than get dragged back into this mage vs. Chantry stuff... but if that was the case... I guess I'd play it. I mean, the idea is interesting, but I really am just hoping DA3 handles this rebellion as a background event. Or give us 5 options at the end to keep things interesting. Picking from 2 heavy-handed options just doesn't cut it.

I don't know... I'll give this idea a "maybe."

You know, this kind of sums it up for me.

The idea is fine and all.  I also have no problem at all with killing mages.  Or killing templars.  I assume there would be a choice at some point on who to side with, after all.

But you know what?  I don't really care about mages v templars that much.

Give me something to kill, a decent reason for doing so, and make the doing fun.

Eventually your obviously charismatic and helpful PC gathers so large a following of people from both sides that his/her journey essentially becomes an Exalted March upon itself, which you may use for whatever purpose you want when you finally hit Minrathous (alternatively, the Silent Plains).

So what you really want is to play as Andraste?  I know it isn't quite the same but that is what came to mind reading this.

In a way, yeah. Nothing quite like current events mirroring those of history, everything going full circle and what not.

I somewhat agree with you on this one: personally, I would have preferred it if the mage-templar war was contained to just DAII, the outcome having about the usual Mass Effect endgame-choice on the next game. But, quite unlike back in 2009, it seems the team now very well knows where they want to go with the story, given the cliffhanger and all that.

As the Tevinter Imperium is based on the Byzantine Empire and the Qunari are based on the Tuks/Ottomans, it's possible that the Qunari could conquer the Tevinter Imperium and attack the rest of Thedas with a Qunari-Tevinter Mage army (Ottomans included a lot of of conquered peoples in their armies). This would create a major conflict for DA3.

If the player is given the choice to side with the Qunari (need to conquer Thedas), Chantry (restore their to power, stop Qunari), or Mages (oppose Qunari/Chantry rule) this could create a very open ended game.

I don't have any interest in being forced to participate in a crusade against men, women, and children who want to be free.

^I am with you!

How will the chantry make a march if: Tavinter is 99% bloodmages, Ferelden is weak because of the blight, orlais is planing taking back ferelden, Whathisface prince*  is going back to get his throne, so his country men are gonna be fighting for it, each other, whatever. kirkwall is weak, because of the mages/templar wars, who also is left to make this crusade?

 The qunaries!! Well they want Order and that means, everyone also obey..

Qunari are a society that does not tolerate mages without haivng them bound and caged.  Tevinter is a society that is entirely controlled by mages. The two would be incompatible in the same army.
