Out of these two nations in Thedas, which would you rather visit in the next Dragon Age game and why would you rather it over the other option?
I say these two nations because it seems that out of all the thedas nations, from what I've gathered from random polls and forum opinions these are the two main places people want to go.

Me, I'd rather visit Tevinter - Reason, Besides the fact that i'd like the level the playing field for thedas by fracturing their power while there so that its not a case of them being the only ones not involved in The Mage / Templar war. Maybe even have my protagonist become Archon and pick which side Tevinter will side with / Convince the Archon who to side with.
But the main reason is because it seems so distant from the rest of thedas, and so different. With mages in power, to their calenders and authorities and governmential system and their chantry. The fact that its so different just intrigues me. This is also a reason I hope we get to eventually go to Rivain some time soon as well =D

Im also hoping that the qunari can be explored upon more, hopefully with a full scale invasion taking place and the fall of thedas's equivilent of Constantinople - Minrathous.

Anyway out of these two nations which would you most want to see in the next game and why?

Since from all the little hints we get from DA2, I think the highest possible location we'll be visiting in DA3 is Orlais, and that's exactly where I wanna go actually.

[Augustei]

Amusingly back in DAO before DA2 was officially announced The Free Marches was where I wanted to go next =D

[Netem]

Honestly, you don't want Minrathous to fall. If Tevinter goes, the Qunari will probably march on the rest of Thedas. That said, I completely agree with everything you said; I want to visit Tevinter, I want to see the Black Divine, the magisters, the slaves, the blood magic -- and I want to break the whole system. But then again, I like the Qunari.

Yeah I'm hoping they will, then Protagonist number 4 comes along and unites everyone to push back the Qunari by participating in the biggest Exalted March in the history of Thedas =D

Because the Qunari are much much more prepared this time so it will take everybody to push out the Qunari, Conscriptions all around of nearly every citizen in thedas... At least one can dream =)

But I wanted to play as a Qunari!



Point in fact (and sorry for all the edits), I probably want to visit Par Vollen more, but Tevinter is as close as we're likely to get.

I'd be happy with either as I think they are both facinating. However, I'd opt for Tevinter if we got to see more than just one city. I'd like to route around in the area of the old Arlathan, perhaps turn up some ancient elven ruins and may be turn up some old elven history of that time.
For the record I'd like to bring down the ruling elite of both Orlais and Tevinter as I think both are corrupt but not if it meant Thedas being overrun by the Qunari. However, from the forewarning of Flemeth it would seem the next instalment will be a time of chaos and great change, which hopefully the PC can genuinely influence.
I notice that the next DLC for DA2 involves an Orlesian estate - whether this will stand alone or leave an open end for future plot lines (like legacy) will be interesting.

[Wulfram]

Tevinter would help get around some of the "Why does no one care I'm a mage" problems.

They're both potentially interesting, but they also both came across as rather charicatured in DA2. I don't particularly want to visit Comedy France or Evil Slaver Land.

[Skadi_the_Evil_Elf]

Tevinter. F*ck Orlais, I'm rather sick of that particular country. I want to see the dying "evil empire" that once ruled all of Thedas. Especially if it means we also get to see more Qunari.

Orlais is about the last place in Thedas I want to visit. Personally, either Rivain or the Anderfells would be more interesting to me. Or Antiva.

[Sons of Horus]

I would prefer Tevinter but I don't mind Orlais. Just as long as its far from Kirkwall.

[Anvos]

As long as they go back to something more like DA:O instead of the Kirkwall I don't so much care.

Don't really see how the qunari would suddenly overwhelm Tevintar as for over 150 years the two of them have been fighting each other to an effective stalemate over Par Vollen.

[LobselVith8]

Tevinter.

I'd like to have a protagonist who is a Tevinter Magister. A brilliant, cunning, powerful mage who might be watching as his people fight against the Qunari in one region, and how a war is erupting in the other. I'd like to see the myraid of different personalities in the Imperium, since I don't think everyone has the same mindset about how things are done in Tevinter and elsewhere.

And Shale was heading to Tevinter.

Of course, but if the PC were given the option to remove some of the big players in Tevinter...

How about both locations? I'm thinking we'll need somewhere to go to escape from the Orlesian accents from time to time.  

[Arthur Cousland]

Isn't DA3 supposed to take place in both? Why the need to choose as if we can only have one?

I'd like to see both, but I'd go with Tevinter if I could only visit one of them.

After seeing the Kirkwall circle being annulled, it would be a nice change seeing a land that is run by mages.

[Cobra's_back]

I would love to play an elf mage or rogue in the Tevinter Imperium and take out the most powerful Tevinter Magister blood mages in their kingdom to free the slaves. If I need to work a deal with the Qunari, then the game just got better. The only requirement is that the new hero has to be able to make some deals, and negotiate with leader for a given outcome like DAO. I don’t want another Hawke. Love the silver tongue devil option.

Hm.

Tevinter would be interesting because it would be fun to explore a completely different culture influenced by a starkly different Chantry. Playing as a Tevinter magister, apprentice, citizen, or slave could be a lot of fun. However, going to Tevinter could entail the Qunari as a primary foe, and I'm personally just not interested in the Qunari.

Orlais would be interesting because the Circles are gone and the Chantry is in disarray. It would be an interesting focal point for the continuation of the mage-templar war. However, going to Orlais would probably mean more NPCs with an accent I'm not particularly fond of. And furthermore, I'm not excited about dealing with the mage-templar conflict again.

My vote is for Tevinter. I'm sick of the Circle mage conflict.

[Sons of Horus]

With the white divine losing most of the Chantry to infighting, wouldn't the black divine be the end all power of the Chantry now ? I wonder if most have turned to him for leadership.

[Loyal Tevinter]

I'd like to see Tevinter for a couple reasons. I want to see what Minrathous looks like and what a city ruled by mages is like. I'm also curious about the Black Divine and how the Imperial Chantry works. I'd also like to know more about the role non-mages have. For example, if you are a Warrior in Tevinter what roles do they have? And I would like to see the current Archon and what he thinks about the situation that happened in Kirkwall.

[EmperorSahlertz]

It would actually seem that DA3 sends us all over Thedas, if those spoiler shirts are anything to goon. So we might get to see both Tevinter and Orlais.

[Foolsfolly]

Tevinter.

And I don't want to change a thing about Tevinter. I don't want to free the slaves or end the stalemate. Why would I? These are the things that make them different and interesting from all the other nations of Thedas. And if/when Tevinter falls the Qunari horde will invade all of Thedas and who will stop them?

[dragonflight288]

Me personally...well I would like to visit Orlais because I want to kick some Chevalier butt. Sentence with death for defending a girl, and I'll conscript every chevalier who comes to kill me into the Legion of the Dead to fight the real enemy...what I can't? Dang.

Joking aside, I do want to see more of Orlais and have some influence on whether or not they invade Ferelden again.

But I also want to go to Tevinter. Simply to see what their society is like. One Archon outlawed slavery and was swiftly assassinated because the entire country has relied on slaves for so long that they don't know how to function without them.

According to Fenris the Qunari have been holding back and if they wanted to take Tevinter they would, which is believable considering they brought all of thedas to a standstill during their last invasion and have had like 400 years to build up their forces

Thats just speculation, nothings been confirmed yet.

The Thedas / Qunari conflict is far more interesting than the mage / templar conflict imo, thats why ACT II was so much better than ACT III in DA2 =D

[naledgeborn]

If the DA team had any sense (which I think they do) they're probably saving Tevinter for an engine upgrade/overhaul maybe even for the next console gen. I prefer it that way tbh. I want to see a very polished and jaw-dropping Tevinter anyway.
