So im not sure if this is the right place, but i've seen a bunch of people post things about DA3 so, yeah!

Alright, so my idea came from people aruging about either following DA:O or DA2 Character creation. Well, like all good things I thought why not combine them? 

So basically, there are a total of 8 diffrent character combinations
Human(Warrior)
Human(Rouge)
Human(Mage)
Elf(Warrior)
Elf(Rouge)
Elf(Mage)
Dwarf(Warrior)
Dwarf(Rouge)
Bioware would then create 8 diffrent characters each one having that race/class combination. The player would then pick one of them custimize that character to his/her liking then play through that character's orgin story. Afterwards, they would meet the other 7 characters one by one, just like you normally would.  of course since Bioware has already created each character they would be voiced acted as well as yours. 

With this, maybe the story could change depending on who's origin story your looking from, so the Human warrior might see things diffrently and decide for the group to go to location X while the Elf Mage in the same situation will say to go to Location Y, which could add to the replay value.

Another feature that could be added would be a New Game+ mode, where if you beat the game, you could import what they look like to another game. So When im finished with my Elf Rouge, I could import his looks into my Human Warrior story.

What do you guys think?

Eh, It sounds just like DA:O. I'm a fan of the new way. I think if they do anything, They should keep following Hawke. Like in Mass Effect

I'm fine with Hawke and the Warden following something mysterious (like revan), and don't think either should be the focus of DA3.

OP has an interesting idea none the less

It would be nice to have both a single character story line, like the previous games, where you collect companions, but also have the option to create an entire group, with some aspects of your idea, for a second play through of the game.

All in all a big thumbs up to your idea from me :P

While it is an interesting idea, I believe it to be way too ambitious to be implemented properly. I just can't see that happening. Plus, I am pretty sure Bioware is sticking with a more defined protagonist from now on (and I don't mean Hawke specifically).

This rouge class of yours, do they fight enemies with their make-up?

I definately hope they let us choose the race again, but I'd rather meet the warden and hawke in da3 rather than be them. Better yet be able to play through as both so the game can coclude from your actions what they would do when they meet (Wishful thinking I know... but still).
I think if they let us choose the race they would need 6 voice actors so that each race sounds different and adds to the experience.

Dragon Age 3 should be more like an aftermath after Hawke and Warden deeds.
Give a large emphasis on exploration, races and if possible go back to the dark medieval setting they did on Dragon Age : Origins, the pseudo anime style of DA2 was hard to digest.

I would like race choices and, multi classing. At least Paladin and Rogue mage to start with.

8 voice actors you mean since plenty of people want to have a Kossith as a race option, or we could go back to the silent guy whoose facial expresion never changes

Just borrow the background selection like in ME instead of origins, its not like DA2 didnt already incorporate ME-style gameplay

I'd like to see 2-3 occupational origins ("smuggler" and "city watch" being my favorite hypothetical dyad) that allowed for multiple racial choices (though I could live with just being a human -- Thedas has me more interested in elves and dwarves than usual, but still not that interested these days). How much that made sense would depend on the locale in question, I guess, but I think it would do a lot to allow for some customization without the level of work required by so many different origins in DAO.

I also think pairing the options down to two origins could allow the game to make them to make those origins more important to the way your character is treated and even maybe story progression.

I would be happy enough going back to silent protagonist I think, though I also have no problem just using the same voice actor for all the different origins/races/whatever. If you're a dwarf, you've grown up in the city around humans to the point you didn't pick up a different accent. If you're an elf, your accent is more regional than racial (it would mean you couldn't play Dalish though).

Still, that's my happy medium. Of course, that's just me trying to throw a bone to other players (and get the same treatment in response). Given my druthers, it would be all human smuggler all day long. However, being able to play from both sides would be fun, particularly if you could change your mind at certain key junctures.

Gaider said in his most recent interview that origins are unlikely, racial selection even more so.

Who knows, based on the reduction of choice from DAO to DA2, they may make you only be male and only have three looks to choose from.

If that is true, DA 3 will truly be a sad game. I would hope for race selections from DA 1 and the customizing from DA 2 as far as looks go. I would have to think that there would be an origins story especially if you are doing a character that is not the Warden nor the Champion. Having different voices for each race would make the creation an awesome experience indeed!

David looks far more comfortable in speaking in front of a camera than he did a year or so ago.

I'd prefer having a new champ and being able to meet the warden or Hawke. And since your prev. game info can be uploaded.... if you played as sarcastic Hawke then they'll have sarcastic comments, etc when you meet them and interact with them.
Really hope they allow you to choose your race as well as class and have a bit more freedom with that. Frankly....I don't mind if they all have the same origin as long as I can have a different race.
I mainly hope that there are great companions! I want to have a mage Qunari as a follower! :D

A mage Quanri...huh...that is quite the cool idea. It would be awesome if they could work in something along the lines of your character saves the Qunari's life and now they owe a life debt to you (very Star Warish, I know!). What if your character started off as an Orlesian noble who has great wealth and nobility. You were raised though to love and care for all races. You see this Qunari being mistreated by a large group of nobles you know all too well. You step in and have two choices; 1) stick up for the Qunari and forgoe the reputation you built for yourself and essentially become an outcast in the region (even losing your castle and servants) or 2) you join in on the beating and end up getting the Qunari when one of your servants buys you a new slave.  Even with this mage you could customize armor and spell sets from the get-go. You would not be stuck with a few spells you do not want. Then towards the end of the game, you would have the option of having the Qunari saving your life (thus losing theirs) or saving their life again and become practically brothers in arms.  That would be very cool I think.

Was happy to hear they were getting some inspirations from Skyrim, with the vast, open, and random world- that should be very fun. I think they should also look at Guild Wars 2, in terms of character creation.

 Way back when Origins was still in development, this was kind of how I thought the Origins were going to work out--basically, you pick which of the characters is the PC and all the others are companions.  It has potential, but it'd be some serious work to implement, and you'd lose the ability to have one of the companions depending on what you decided to play.

Race selections from DA 1
Human,Elf, Dwarf and new kind of class.
maybe new race as qunari or why not a demon of desire?,everyone likes this kind of demon.
Also,It would be great to have grey warden and hawke as companions. After DA1 and DA2, we would miss them.
