the most important thing is the
STORY imported from DA:O DA:O A... with no major consequences to DA II
When I had taken
first time a savegame from DA:O to import all my choices in DA2 I had took a look on plot summary and the next choices where listed ( I played as human noble man , warrior) :
Connor was freed from the demon. -
NO consequence
Mages was recruited into the army. -
NO consequence
Dalish elves was recruited into the army.
- minor consequence ( miniquest in wounded coast)
Bhelen rules Orzammar. -
minor consequenceThe Anvil of the Void was destroyed. -
no consequence but i didn`t imported a savegame with anvil saved yet to see if there is any big consequence .Loghain was killed. dosen`t matter if I slain the Archdemon.
Alistar is the king of Fereldan. -
minor consequenceThe Warden performed the dark ritual with Morrigan. -
NO consequence (
in DA2)The Warden killed the Archdemon. - save Alistar and DA:O main character .. but
not give you anything in DA2
Vigil`s Keep was saved from darkspawn assault. - a quest and some change in dialogues with Anders.
The Architect is alive.
NO consequence
Warden`s Keep was reclaimed.
NO consequence
Shale was discovered.
NO consequence
King Cailan`s corpse was burned. - ok O.o
Whaaaattt ? The Warden join Morrigan to travel through the eluvian.
NO consequence (`til now I hope )
When I read all this i thought "Woww , great ... , the story will concentred more on darkspawn and baby god (Morrigan child) .."
So i started to play DA2
prologue Outside Lothering - meeting Flemeth in Dragon form .. "
niceee good start .. "
arriving in Kirkwall , very nice cinematic ,
very nice indeed.
act1 heard something about the Blight. Hero of ferelden killed the archdemon ;
meet the last member of Harrowmont house . first
minor consequence.
heard of Deep Roads expedition .."
maybe will meet The architect or a least a darkspawn who can speak.";)
Nothing

, instead you found a idol made from pure lyrium who affects very badly the dwarfs minds
and the game continues like this ...
also you can make bethany of carver a Warden. but Hawke can`t

so the story so far :
DA:O 10/10
DA:A 10/10 (ser Pource-lot ability is cool)
DA:O Witch hunt 9/10
DA:2 6.5/10 with Legacy 7 or 7.50 because you learn and meet one of the magisters who tried to enter in Golden City , an very ancient story .. learn the madness is even between the Wardens . etc
Now my questions for Bioware about the next DLC`s or DA 3..
why the story go so far from the actions in first game? how will going to have big consequences after 10 years of Hawke ?
The Warden join Morrigan to travel through the eluvian; will we going to see Morrigan , The Warden ? ( Please USE from Warden`s calling/Urn of Ashes trailers like default face if you will choose to reput The Warden in a game , I hope to see the
main character again , not only second one , Hawke.)
P.S
In Dragon Age Origins you engage 1 dragon + The Archdemon (exception make drake and dragonling) and you move around an entire country , in Dragon age 2 , you move around Kirkwall and you engage dozens of dragons ..
I cannot say how many times i played DA:O and DA:A , but a can say DA2 i played 3 times , one like mage , like rogue and like warrior .. please excuse my bad english .
