Yeah that's alluded to pretty heavily, especially in the second Dragon Age book Gaider wrote which focused pretty much entirely on the Deep Roads.  Also they're buried really...really...really deep.

I'll have to read that one. Only read Asunder so far, but really liked it.



OT, I hope that, rather than a Blight, the issue with Corypheus is explored. Really found that part of the DLC interesting.

I dont want to see another blight but I dont want them to drop the darkspawn totally either. One of my favorite stories within Dagon Age right now are with Corypheus and the Architect. I would really lie to know what these darkspawn are up to, especially Corypheus since he obviously is not dead.

Bioware stated that there will be darkspawn in DA3.

What their role will be is still unclear, no more info from BW. 

I hope that there will be something more substantial then their rol in DA2 though.
Another poster mentioned Corepheus and the architect (or intelligent darkspawn) whose story hasn't been played out yet.

Corypheus has more chances to appear, while I have some doubts on the Architect. He could be dead at the end of Awakening.

I do not want them to have another blight. It's been done. I do want a return to the epic-feel of being a warden fighting the blight, though, that's really what captivated me.

Personally, i want to see the Veil shatter.

We know it breaks down in areas of death, violence, blood, etcetc.

The number of wars Thedas has had, the amount of blood magic used. The up-coming war between Mages and Templars could kick off some irreparable damage and the Veil could just. POOF.

No barrier between the Realm of Will and the Realm of Flesh? Would be epic.

With that being said, all the intellgent Darkspawn rearing their ugly heads, who's to say there won't be another Blight? Darkspawn might even be smart enough to raise more than one Arch Demon, take Thedas by storm.

It does kind of suck that the blight is done with, it's almost like (but not quite) if the reapers died in the first Mass Effect game.

And maybe theres more to Thedas then the Blight, but the Blight storyline is what drew everyone to Thedas

There certainly could be another Blight at some point soon, particularly if the

**SPOILER**

Architect is still alive, and maybe even otherwise (Legacy's implications with Corypheus have interesting potential, and as you mention, Sylvanpyxie, there are still disciples).  Playing Awakening as an Orlesian Warden seems to make it clear as well that the Wardens are girding for the possibility of another.  The Blight is a very dynamic part of Thedas, turning everything on its head.

And tearing the Veil could be epic indeed...  A bit like what was attempted in Redemption, with the mask of Fen'Harel. 

****END SPOILER****

Hmm...  Fen'Harel using the sort of chaos you mention and tearing open the Veil would be very OK by me   The increasing mention of him in Merrill and Marethari's tales and conversation in DA2 makes me wonder, as does some of the Black Emporium codex info, if he isn't coming back?

I want more blights, but maybe not till Dragon Age 5 or 6 (yes, I would still be buying them).

In the meantime though, the Grey Wardens haven't been idle and I am dying to know what their super-sneaky, super-top-serious business is.

So yes to Grey Wardens, no for now to blights please.

This business, whatever it may be, is secret enough that GW Alistair had to pinky-swear to the Warden about it after all... 

[Tommyspa]

I never want to see another blight. I've already played that game. Also why would they cram another blight so soon? We've had a whopping total of 5 in 1300 years. #Howisplotrecyclinginthesamefranchiseok?

I know - I love that! And everyone knows Alistair can't actually keep a secret, so whatever it is it must be good.

No thank you. There's no need for a blight in the next game while the Templar/Mage conflict still has to be solved.

I doubt you're the only one but I can say I'd rather there not be another blight.

1. I don't want to see a recylcled plot from one game ago.
2. I don't think it fits well within the lore of the game, blights are usually seperated by longer periods of time IIRC.

1) I agree
2) Indeed, the Blights don't begin again for a few centuries at least. They are, however, ended quicker then the previous ones thanks to the Wardens

All this said however, we still have the Disciples, the Architect possibly, and Corypheus definitely. I would enjoy seeing another civil war between the Darkspawn on some level. Corypheus leading some sort of pseudo-Blight and the Architect and his men allying with humanity.

But that'd be somewhat contrived, so I'll settle for the Darkspawn and the Grey Wardens having some role in the game besides "MOAR enemies."

And I want to get to know Corypheus on some level. I felt bad for him in Legacy. Poor, confused little Darkspawn.

 I've check as far as I can for a similar topic but I haven't found one.
So it got me thinking am, I the only one who want a blight for the next game?

dat name. Listening to Electrify - Armistice right now exactly... I hope your name isn't just a coincedence because it's just too awesome

Original post? Nah. The blight is interesting and all, but it wasn't even the most interesting part of DA:O. It was just a device to force players to go to all of the cultures and gain their aid (perfect for the first entry in a franchise, introducing gamers to a setting).

[Xerxes52]

Another Blight? No thanks.

More on Corypheus? Sure.

Mage vs Templar War? Go for it.

The Qunari deciding to conquer Tevinter once and for all? I'm on board.

Orlais wants Ferelden back? Why not.

The Divine tries to steamroll Kirkwall with an Exalted March? Sounds fun.

Flemeth or Morrigan has mysterious plans for Thedas? Let's do it.


Anything but another Blight please. These should be massive, world changing events. Having them happen too often would make them feel too mundane.

I'm looking forward to finding out   It sounds like the devs plan to dig into this mystery.

People don't want to see another blight, yet it's fine to see another mage vs templar war?

One thing that I liked about the Ferelden blight is how it brought everyone together to fight the blight.  In Kirkwall, everyone was killing everybody.

We have not seen a game based on a mage vs templar war. Only the start of one, which we will be continuing, it is clearly not the same as another blight.

You know, you're actually really right. Some kind of commentary on North Americans, maybe?

I guess I just prefered the mage/templar scenario as it was kept to the Broken Circle questline in Origins, and didn't involve the entire game.  I have a feeling that DA3 will feel more like DA2.5.

As there will always be mages born and templars who think that killing mages is their way of serving the maker, what could be a possible resolution to this scenario?  This all seems like it's just a setup for the Qunari invading after the mages and templars have destroyed much of Theadas.

I see, well considering that we know it'll be about the mages and templars overall, it'll lead to frustration hoping it won't be the main focus. However DA3 might give you a satisfying answer for the resolution you are looking for, and yep the Qunari certainly are the type to take advantage of the strife, I can see that being a nice plot re-direct coming up.
