I played through origins again before starting my dragon age 2 so i could make all the decisions i wanted to carry onto DA2. I also made sure that my character Who was a Dwarf noble had the chance to become king. but i was diapointed to se that there was little mention of orzammar and the state of its king and also the state of the hero of Ferelden. would like to hear what people think of the Dwarf noble becoming king.

I dislike that Dragon Age Origins had little to no afffect to the overall plot of Dragon Age 2. So what was the point of importing a save?

I didn't know the Dwarf Noble origin could become king. That's one of the few origins I didn't finish.

So that only a few gimicks could be tossed in here or there to make it feel like the import mattered. I had the same disappointment with how previous decisions were handled in ME 2, but even that game had more reference to what Shepard did than what the Warden did. Perhaps it was because the main characters were different in the DA games, but now I'm being generous to Bioware. They really just didn't have a very flexible plot in DA 2 and didn't seem to spend much time making it into a quality game. Image IPB

I didn't what the import did to Mass Effect 2, they should have reboot it and say ME2 is the true ME1.

But they should have.  The obvious point would have been having Branka endorse you as ruler of Orzammar.  Branka even points it out and yet they do not give you the option to say it when you go to the assembly.  So incredibly freakin stupid.

It's a pretty good idea actually. Having said that, there are an infinite number of possibilities and Origins was fantastic in its range of options so there are no complaints from me.

Dwarf Noble was exiled and all that fun stuff. You were unpersoned, how do you expect to have anything to your name when you don't "officially" exist? Branka was only one Paragon, you think the dwarves would give up all that history and tradition on the word of one Paragon?

They accepted the decision for king on the voice of that same exile just because it was backed by said Paragon.  So yes.  Yes they would.

The Dwarf Noble that chose Harrowmnet should be KIng/Queen in DA3 because Harrowment is weak and a dead man and the dwarves will look to their only sane living paragon for leadership.

My Dwarf Noble is too ambitious to let Behelen have the throne he was hoping Harrowment would croak soon and take over as King.

But it is another matter altogether when you're gonna have that exile bum warming the throne. It's convenient for them to accept the vote because it only decides between two established candidates. To bring in an "outsider" who has no claim to the throne is a completely different matter.

What's this doing on the DA2 board? The problem is with DAO.

ITA electing yourself as king/queen and Harrowmont as your temporary regent while you deal with the Blight should have been a third way if you were a dwarven noble.

 Both the OP and a few people on this thread seem to be forgetting something: 

The Dwarven Wardens (Noble  and Commoner) become Paragon's at the end of Origins. That makes the Dwarf Warden one of the most powerful political force in the dwarven kingdom. That being said I really don't see why my Dwarf Noble Paragon couldn't just say "Harrowmont, it'd be a really good idea for some reform and let those soldiers I asked Fereledan to send in to Orzimmar to fight Darkspawn, OK?"

It takes time and money for them to make everything work in sequels and I'm glad that DA isn't going to be a massive soap opera series that follows the same plot, I'm fine with there being an overarching plot but I like that they are making games that focus on the other parts of the DA universe they want to focus on...even if DA 2 wasn't that great of a game.

I had actually hoped that my DN would be queen of Orzammar in DA2. By the time DA2 takes place she should already have been named paragon and gotten all her rights back, and according the the epilogue Harrowmont's rule was a short one.

I posed this same exact question 7 months ago on my old account. Just type in Dwarf Nobles and it'll be something like Dwarf Nobles, why can't you be king of Orzammar?


Though don't try to necro it. Cuz then it might get locked. But I even came up with a way that a Dwarf Noble who didn't kill Trian could take the throne.

I agree, an "I grant the Crown to myself!" Option should be there.

Kirkwall =/= Ferelden

Also it had plenty of affect considering. Your choices influence different things.

Unlike Mass Effect, DA2 isn't a continuation of a single person's story. Dragon Age is more about the setting as a whole and the different things that occur during the century known as The Dragon Age.

*SPOILER* that may be but at the end he/she is allowed back to his family by harromont and all rites restored also harromont if you destroy the anvil of the void dies and you are named his sucessor and you are also a paragon so this would allow the dwarf noble to become a paragon king.

it is a DA2 problem because this should have happened in DA2 because it took place over ten years.

So DA2 shouldn't just import the DAO endings, it  should also change them?

The simple answer is that Bioware might want to do something with the political situaton in Orzammar, and just like Ferelden, a PC ruler would be difficult for them to work with (if not impossible) without derailing people's character.

then what is the point of making the choices if they don't mean anything in the world
