^ ?. This cassandra is a short video clip character from DA2. Why are people so obsessed about her? Shes as interesting as the guy who denied his mageling/half elf boy.

[karushna5]

No, unless it does like some said, and are forced to be one, but a Seeker's job would be based on the other two wouldn't it? I want a hero who stands on her own feet.

That said, I think it would be hard for them to do races and would prefer a game in the next year or two instead of 5. It can't be Origins but it can be just as good without as well.

I would like to play as Cassandra. Since they keep shoving the cinematic presentation, might as well go all the way.

I would not buy the game  if that happened. 

[DiegoRaphael]

No, but a Seeker companion i would like.

[GodWood]

It's not what I want but I wouldn't be against it.

In a recent interview Mr. Laid law has said that he kind of wants the protagonist to be a Seeker.
He said, " What we want is a seeker, you know a SEEKER." So, it kind of says that DA 3's hero might be a seeker.
However, i dont get one thing- if the hero is seeker then the hero surely cant be a mage.

Anyway guys, would u like ur hero to be a seeker?

Not all of them, no. In fact, being forced to play a pro-Chantry character = no sale, as far as I'm concerned. If the option is available as a specialization, I might take it once or twice, but I'm definitely not in favor of mandating a political and religious stance on all playthroughs.

It is also possible that he was talking about a companion, not the protagonist. Although given how out of touch Mr. Laidlaw can be with his fan base, it is possible that is exactly what he meant. Personally, I think that making the protagonist a Seeker would be disastrous for the franchise. Customer loyalty only goes so far.

Yes, I wouldn't like to be forced to be a Seeker (with or without Orlesian accent), but I wouldn't mind if it's just one of the OPTIONS available, I wouldn't mind if Cassandra is a companion either.

In fact I'd like to have Leliana as a companion again (Corinne Kempa's voice )

Btw, maybe Bioware could do what Sony did with God of War, e.g. the war between templars and mages is resolved but in the end of the game there is a cinematic of the start of a new Blight, preparing the setting for Dragon Age 4, that would be cool I think.

If the Old Gods are truly the Archdemons, then it is possible that 2 Blights more could happen.

As always, feel free to give ur comments.

No, I have zero interest in a Seeker protagonist. I dislike the Andrastian Chantry, the poorly handed voiced protagonist, the auto-lines, and the heavy railroading. I have no interest in a Seeker, especially one who will likely be as pre-made as Hawke. I guess Dragon Age III isn't for me.

[Dave of Canada]

I'd rather be a mercenary but Seeker would be fine, much better than forcing me to be a Warden.

I want the protagonist of DA 3 to be a sneaker, a tennis shoe. That would be an improvement over Hawke. At least then we are likely to go places if on the foot of a real hero. But that's not all! The hero who wears us can be good or evil, it could be any race or any class build. Sure, we're only his/her shoe, but at least it opens up options in character creation and some plot flexibility that was absent in DA 2.

It doesn't particularly worry me that much, as long as we have a bit of freedom in character creation & the game is good.

If the PC is a seeker, I'm sure there will be a retcon of major proportions for those who play mage...otherwise you're looking at a lot of pissed off mage gamers.

It'd be cool, but I'll be REALLY pissed if I cannot play mage.  That is my canon class. <_<

Same.  I hated Cassandra.  Felt like she was gullible to believe everything that happened was the Champion's fault when in reality it would've started the same without him there.

It's an RPG, so the protagonist should be working his/her way up from nothing.

I'd like to see this interview, if you happen to know where it is.

Regarding the topic itself, I wouldn't mind it, but I wouldn't want to just start off as playing the Seeker. I'd like to earn my way into that group. An origin story that shows me getting stuff done and the Seekers want to recruit me for my skills. Given the circumstances of the Mage-Templar War, they probably can't afford to be picky on just who they're recruiting if they want the status quo to return.

I mean, recruiting from fervent believers in the Maker is what got the Chantry into this mess. So they'd probably have to swallow their pride and recruit people of different beliefs, assuming they haven't done so in the past -- which is, incidentally, what I believe they have done.

See my ideas for how we could rise to the position of Seeker in DAIII here.

And we should not be forced to be believers in the Maker. And if we're going to be pro-Chantry, we should be able to shape that belief on our own. If we're going to be Seekers, that doesn't mean we have to immediately be pro-Chantry.

But if we're given a good reason why we should be -- like the Divine promising to help the Elves once things are back in order, and she promises to do this even more so if the Dalish help her fight Lambert's army -- then that'd be a good reason.

Don't make us immediately pro-Chantry, but give us a reason why we should consider making our character such.

Not like it'll matter anyway. DAIII will end with a Qunari invasion with Sten standing upon a Dreadnought as the new Arishok. He shall have an epic goatee, a box of cookies under one arm, and a box of kittens under the other. And he shall look to the camera and say....

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. If the Seekers want to restore the status quo, it'd be smart of them to recruit some Mages into their ranks because who are the Mages more likely to listen to? A Mage that's arguing for reform or some non-mage that says they're working for reforming the Circle?

As long as the Seeker can be of different races (elf, dwarf, kossith), then I'll be happy.

If we have to get saddled with another human protagonist again because of "story," I quit.

Ahem, Im a bit confused here. Arent seekers supposed to be agents of the chantry or templar or something. I think that kinda rules out dwarf and kossith. Hey atlest theres City elf and human.

Kossith wearing Chantry armor -- possibly Seeker armor, if this is the armor of the Seekers.

I doubt they'd have shown this type of artwork in the Collector's Edition Guide for DAII if they weren't considering it as being something they'd do for DAIII.



EDIT: Figured I'd make 3 posts be one.

So if you're a Warden, the game "forces" you to be one, but if you're a seeker, you'll be fine with it?
What's with the biased language-usage?

[eroeru]

@Redux

Really nice find with the Kossith (seeker?) picture. That'd be interesting.

[Dwarva]

I personally would rather not. I wasn't keen on the way that ME2 pigeonholed you into a role I wasn't comfortable with (working with TIM) and wouldn't really appreciate that in DA3. Am not a huge supporter of the chantry and think it would take away the element of control I *feel* I have over my character.

[AkiKishi]

Don't care as long as I could do things my own way. Sorta reminds me of Yuna in FFX. She started off as a typical summoner and ended up bringing down the religion she was serving at the start.

But a two-way-branching story-line that does have options for being anti and pro in the course of the STORY, is a swell one, I think. You know, you start off as a renegade-chantry guy, but make decisions pro chantry and stuff.

Also, one must hold in mind the lore, so Kossith should probably stay anti-chantry. And why not a non-renegade exlusively human, if he/she has many different choices within that "story-line"?

I don't know. A two-way-branching storyline seems way too contricting. Having the option to express varying degrees of devotion to your order (the way Wardens could be anywhere from extatic to mildly happy to neutral, to indifferent to hateful of the Grey Warden order, or mages could have whatever view of the Circle Tower, Templars, Andraste, etc) seems fine. Being restricted to a "renegade"/paragon system of extreme goodness/order or extreme hostility/chaos a la Mass Effect? Eh...


I donlt see why personal beliefs need to be restricted based on race. A kossith might believe in the Maker or the Chantry, you never know. And a human might not believe in the Maker for whatver reason. That's for the role-player to decide for ther characters.

Ever play Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 ? It deals with the Super Hero Registration arc. You choose being pro Iron Man and anti Cap. Each side gets its own story and its own cast.
