So I finally finished my first play-through (yay!). I have to say I was somewhat disappointed in the ending, though. While everything was wrapped up just fine, I really was hoping for a final cinematic with me and my friends waving to the throng of admirers, Lelianna snuggled close, while perhaps Morrigan watches on from a distance before slipping away to "never" be seen again.
Then I wondered if maybe the choices I made led to this toned-down ending. While I chose Lelianna almost exclusively throughout the game, I did choose to sleep with Morrigan before the final battle, not for myself, but to save my fellow Gray Wardens should they land the killing blow. Did Lelianna know of this? Alistair seemed to know somehow right after (even though the final dialogue with him seemed to indicate otherwise). And Lelianna did respond "yes" to my "does the hero get the girl" question. But in the final prologue text, it made no mention of the two of us "living happily ever after". So I guess I'm asking if everyone experienced a similar, lackluster ending, romantically speaking, or did I botch things with Lelianna by sleeping with Morrigan? I'm tempted to reload and choose a different path, but that's several hours of playing that I'd rather not go through again if it's only going to end the same way.
End game and romance (yes, spoiler)

I chose a different path (chose Leliana, refused Morrigan's offer, spared Loghain and let him kill the archdemon) and got pretty much the same ending. I think that the game was designed to have an ambiguous ending (I think "lackluster" might be a tad unfair, but just a tad) because it's only the first part in a series of games.

I got a romantic tie at my ending, but I'm a chick and picked the squeefest Alistair (he stayed with me, only left my side to bury Duncan, yadda yadda, swoon swoon).
Maybe you men are just meant to be lonely. Poor sods.

Don't get me wrong, the ending was satisfying in every other way. I was just hoping for a little more acknowledgement that Lelianna and I ended up together, other than the short blurb about her and I heading off together to the land of the Wardens. What can I say? I'm a sucker for fairytale endings. 
Thanks for the replies!
