I'm curious what everyone thinks will be the "canon" ending for this game.  Obviously any sequel will need to have a history based on one of the possible outcomes. 

Personally, I'm guessing it will be this:

PC - Human Noble Male, father of Morrigan's child (assuming she was romanced and ended in love with you)
Alistair and Anora joint rulers of Ferelden, Alistair "hardened version"
Loghain executed as a traitor, killed by Alistair in duel

Thoughts?

Anora won't marry her father's killer.

[Nobody Important]

My predictions are close to the original poster except one major difference:
- Male Human Noble
- Performs the dark ritual with Morrigan
- Hardened Alistair marries Anora.
- Loghain lives and becomes the grey warden recruiter. (Although I guess its possible the dark ritual isn't performed and Loghain sacrifices himself.)

Also yes it is possible for Alistair to be king and Loghain to live. Alistair just leaves the party.

Doubt there will be one, they will most likely use the same method as they are for Mass Effect 2, in that your choices will be carried over to the next game. Dunno how exactly it will work for Mass Effect 2 but for DA:O I'm guessing the sequel will be set in another land like Orlais and will have the choices you made impact whether Morrigan will have a kid stood next to her when you talk to her etc.

I think that the canon thing is that the archdemon died. Nothing else.

So you think the King of Ferelden in any sequel will change depending on the choices you made in the previous game?

If that is even addressed in a sequel, yes. I have a feeling they are going to pull a fast one and make the next game simultaneous with this one though.

[menasure]

i'm thinking more along the line of a prequel ... lots of characters seem to have had 'unusual' long lives in game but anything goes ... even having no second dragon age.

this, i rekon it will be like mass effect in that DA 2 will carry over your saves from Origins and that bioware wont have a canon ending, just the unversal fact that the blight was defeated

Another one of these threads?  Sten, help me answer here.

Sten: "Wrong."

PC - Human Noble Male, father of Morrigan's child (assuming she was romanced and ended in love with you)
Alistair and Anora joint rulers of Ferelden, Alistair "hardened version"
Loghain executed as a traitor, killed by Alistair in duel

Thoughts?

Sten: "No."

[Squiggles1334]

To a slight degree, I kinda hope the sequel doesn't continue the story of the PC, and to a very very large degree, I definitely hope the sequel doesn't focus on another blight.

[Beechwell]

I also agree with Mr. Uhl. Seems most likely that the sequel will be far enough removed from Origins in time and/or space that the exact ending won't matter.

I am curious though, why everyone considering a canon ending favors a human male noble. I assume it has similar reasons as the common complaint that there were too few human origin stories in the game. People like to identify with someone of their own gender and "species". Could that be?

I think 40% played human noble first playthrough. And the majority of them male.

Someone suggested that the next game feature a type of origin story that introduces your old character and his/her choices into the game. I really like that concept.

Like, you might start out in the new Grey Warden Base, you may have been travelling with Sten or Wynne and are on your way back with people filling you in on the events or somesuch. You might have passed away, so in that case a new character comes up?

I think this is a really cool idea.

Because the rest involves mages, elves and dwarves.

And we all know second class citizens don't deserve canon endings.

You people bug me. Then what is the freaking point of calling it Dragon Age: Origins ?
Seeing as, you know, it's the origin of that character.

Bioware went back to their "roots" and the origins part is a big focus of the game.

[ReubenLiew]

Well it's called Origins the same reason why it's called Final fantasy.



And as we all know it's about as final as the James Bond series.

Hate the opinion, not the opinionated, dude!

If there was a canon ending, I predict Morrigan's ritual being it and Alistair becoming King. Morrigan's ritual poses so many questions concerning why, what, and whom, it is far more interesting (and darker) than not undergoing the ritual.

[HarlequinDream]

I would still buy the game, but I would be very disappointed if Bioware pretty much undid every game I played by making the Human Noble male hard and fast canon.



I figure it'll take place some time and place far enough away that there will only be conjectures about what happened in Ferelden.

I believe the Theirin bloodline was restored to the Throne. That means Alistair became King- with or without Anora. I also believe he did not have a heir and another illegitimate child will be revealed.

I don't have any real thoughts except on this one. Maric got around in his short time in Thedas. I wouldn't be suprised if another one or two popped up...

[Xandurpein]

I think that DA2 will not be in Ferelden, at least not with the MC from DA:O. For a lot of people "their" ending is that the player dies. I think it would be wrong to force them to rewrite "their" history, to be able to play DA2.



Probably all we will hear about Ferelden in the sequel is that it has/had a famously great royal couple, which may be Anora/Alistair, Anora/male PC, Alistair/Female PC or whatever, and that a famous Grey Warden killed the Archdemon, but no details are known.
