I hope yes i didin't liked to be forced human.. I hope the new game have the opportunity to start a new character and select a race...

[Teddie Sage]

I'm one of the "rare" players who actually wants to continue the storyline as Hawke... But I wouldn't say no to this, for new players.

[Zanallen]

It is possible, though they would have to use characters who have a reason to have the same voice. Like a human, city elf and surface dwarf who all grew up in Orlais.

I hope yes i really hope

A dwarf with a french accent would be quite amusing to me.

I suspect it will be Hawke again after Laidlaw said they had plans for her.

That would be fantastic.

[Brockololly]

If its Hawke again...yeah, no thanks. Don't care what the story is then

As to the possibility of multiple races, so long as they were also sticking with the voiced PC which is all but confirmed, and so long as they would adhere to their own rules on what certain races sound like, then I can't see it happening.

It is the only way I can see multiple races working with a voiced protagonist. Bioware isn't going to hire multiple VAs for the protagonist, nor do I think they will do a couple different recordings with the same actor using different accents.

Yeah I'm not a fan of Hawke. He is suppose to be Dragon Age's Shepard but this isn't Mass Effect so I would like someone other than him.

Me too, me too. But I want another custom race game too, and another with a new predetermined PC.

I want it all!

[Atakuma]

Honestly, I doubt they will ever go back to multiple races.

[Victia]

I would love to have muli-race choice again but I dont see it happening.

As to hawke being the PC in DA3 - I hope not, whilst I love my f/hawkes and long for story driven dlc, I just cant help but feel having her/him back for da3 would just feel cheap.

[Ryllen Laerth Kriel]

Normally I wouldn't of minded a fantasy game with a set human protagonist, but it did irk me a bit that Bioware decided to do this in a sequel to a game which had far more options for character creation and play style options for it's character classes. It left me feeling incredibly underwhelmed with DA 2.

If DA 3 is about Hawke, I'm very likely not going to buy it. I would rather not play as that character ever again unless some serious changes are made where Hawke can actually make big decisions and not come across as some bland wallflower, sitting about, waiting for others to decide everything for him/her. It would be nice if they just went full-tilt with a set main character or gave back more customization options. Hawke felt too much like an awkward hybrid in DA 2, where it was basicly a Bioware NPC I was playing...but you could change his/her face and whether Hawke said basicly the same thing in a nice, mean, snarky or occaisionally flirty tone.

I hope Bioware goes with a third hero that is customizable and has different character origins. The Warden would be too hard to write in since some people (myself included) made the ultimate sacrifice on at least one character. Hawke, I'm just not even remotely interested in the story of. And there is alot of potential that is passed up by not making the protagonist a dwarf or elf.

I hope Bioware comes to a decision as to whether they plan to write stories with set protagonists or give player some creative freedom in their protagonists. The hybrid felt miserable to me. Hawke didn't feel like a character I would ever create and wasn't interesting at all enough to carry the role of a fixed protagonist. The customization options were minimal, it was really Bioware's character, I had no illusion of input, that I was building a character.

Bringing back Hawke alone almost makes it a certainty that I will not be playing DA 3.

Human only I'm afraid - <cry> I would love to play a Elf with a Welsh accent

[Rokky94]

Although I would prefer race selection, or even the warden returning, I wouldn't cry over Hawke returning. I just hope that they don't make him a grey warden.

Actually that would make it quite a bit more cheesy than Hawke already is.

[Zanallen]

If they bring back origins, it is more likely that we will get a choice of different backgrounds/occupations for a set race than different racial choices.

[Salaya]

Im one of those who'll be extremely disappointed if Hawke shows her face again as main character ._.
Unfortunatelly, all points to this.

A new char-creator with races and origins would be perfect. But given the new policy of voiced lines, its very unlikely. Ah, but my dream is import my warden

Even this would be a step forward a least. Though I'm afraid you are correct, I am not expecting much out of DA 3 in the way of a return to player options. Heck, DA 2 couldn't get Hawke's origin right so they were 0-1 there. I could care less about Bethany or Carver dying at the begining when there was a void of emotion there. The characters were strangers and we were supposed to care about them? It felt to me like a failure in the drama department. Then of course being blamed for generic sibling A or B's death by mother didn't endear me either. I kept orbiting the dialogue wheel hoping for a secret option to leave them all behind and sneak off to Orlais.

I take it you never went into the Blooming Rose and spoken to Jethann.

[FieryDove]

I would prefer just human if we have to stick to the current CC and race style choices. That's just me tho.

[Ryllen Laerth Kriel]

This goes back to my theory on the redesign of the elves in DA 2, they made them soooo ugly because they didn't want players to miss being able to play as them. And dwarves are practically non-existant so that they are mostly forgotten. Might as well just call it Human Age from now on.

[Pasquale1234]

I seriously doubt we'll ever see race/origin selection ala DAO again.

The voicing is only one concern. They would also need to do 3-4x (if you include Qunari) the armor modeling work, possibly 3-4x the cutscene/modeling work (and there were a *lot* of cutscenes in DA2), etc. - not to mention actually creating and implementing the various origin stories and whatever differences in the main storyline and other NPC's reactions to the PC that may be appropriate. Overall, you could wind up needing to create (for example) 80 hours of content for a game that takes 30 hours to play.

Unless the PC's race/origin is somehow particularly meaningful to the story being told, and the story is intended to be experienced from different origins, I'm not sure it would be a great use of resources.

I've never liked dwarves. Varric was okay, I guess-- he wasn't as much of a joke as every other one-- but I disliked him for a host of other reasons. So I'm actually glad they're moving away from including them.

I want to play a qunari mage in DA3 (with the caveat that the rest of the game has to actually be good; otherwise, no thanks).
