Dragon Age Origins was originally named just "Dragon Age". They later added the Origins in.
One of the reasons the devs stated was because its going back to their origins of BG stye, the other was the Origin stories. One of the writers already said that people put too much emphasis on Morrigans child. Not everyone did the ritual, so to have that being a big impact on the sequel won't be right. I'm sure it will have repercussions, but not on the scale people are thinking of. And if she gets one of them to sleep with her in Orlais, how will that help if theres no Archdemon? And if that particular Warden doesn't make the killing blow?

Then they should extend her storyline in Dragon Age 2 to mean something. It doesn't have to be the child but there are rare times when you come across a Companion who has  rich storyline, even her mother sarcastic comment's before she cast he rout was enjoyable.

I don't want that to her or her storyline, no matter what it is in Part 2. It does not have to be the massive storyline of the ritual but at least something. Or they they can make a companion with equal or greater interest then Morrgian then I will be happy.

All the rest of the comapnion's really didn't appeal to me. Even the sarcastic comedy Allister was just taking things non seriously, and sten took things too seriously. I couldn't seem to find a happy middle level ground. In any take I hope Dragon Age truely blows away the first one. They finally got a working approval rating system.

In mass Effect one and kotr they tried with approval rating's but with dragon age they finally delivered. I hope they apply the same kind of approval settings and plot in all their games.

Yeah she had lot of personality especially after i fought A GIANT F*****G Dragon just to get her a G*****N BOOK and the the little B***H ran off

I forgot to mention that in the console version i would love to see a new graphic engine that can go up in par with Mass Effect 2

[EJon]

I agree, Dragon Age in the UE3 Engine would look really great

Hell yeah cause that is honestly my biggest problem with it and i dont tend to judge graphics too much but seriously
they could have been a lot better at least in the console versions they need improvements.And in the UE3 this game could rival AC2 

[SeanMurphy2]

I guess they wil use roughly the same engine. But hopefully it will be more optimised for the console people. They said there was big technical improvements in ME2 compared to the first game.

[Spectre 117]

Mass effect 2 looks horny ( in a non sexual way) But really they should improve the graphics for DA2 and let me fly a GIANT DRAGON ;D!!!!

Mass Effect 2 is using the newer version of the UE3 i believe. Could be wrong, but it looks like the 3.5.

[Spectre 117]

Yeah i think so btw have you guys check out the new cinematic trailer??Makes me want to skip christmas which is bad idea.

Nah dude it just that me and my friends tend to call games that look too awesome like AC2 ME2 Horny.
Its like saying awesome hahahahahaB)

The only thing I know about the sequel (and I'm REALLY sure about this) is that it will heavily feature, or it will focus on the conflict between the Old Gods's followers/Apostates/etc. and the Chantry.



The fact that the chantry headquarters is in Orlais, and most likely that will be the location of the next big storyline in this series, the fact that Morrigan went to Orlais, or was most assuredly heading there otherwise (Frostback Mountains is really the only way there by foot), the fact that the old god baby could be very, very key to that type of conflict without being totally necessary. (I mean without it, there's still Flemeth, Morrigan, the Tevinter Imperium, and who knows what else in the 'apostate' category. But a reborn old god -- a second one, if the theory about Flemeth being one as well holds true-- could be a great boon.)



And stuff like this:

Annnd, to the poster above: The codex explains that name of the next age is named at the end of the century, and it is named for what is expected to come. So when the dragon is spotted on a rampage, more dragons are expected to hatch and grow during the Dragon Age. Until that point the age was going to be named the Sun Age, for Orlais, due to the Orlesian occupation and the expansion of the Orlesian empire.

Merely gives this theory more support. Thematically at least.

[Spectre 117]

Well the good thing about that is that they say that in Orlais you can find pretty shoes so maybe i can finally find those dang shoes for Leliana

hmm..... So all of you people who are stating that we will be in Orlais or somewhere with a new Grey Warden... Did you go through the trouble of reading the epilogue? I think not. That statement about Ferelden not seeing the last of the main character itself not only confirms a sequel, but the fact that you will continue to play as the same guy. As i said before, it wouldn't make sense to see the Origins of the Hero if your going to play another person in the sequel. 

Unless the title Dragon Age: Origins refers to the Origins of the Dragon Age. Meaning that the following story will revolve around the child who has the soul of an old god.

Although they say that the current age is known as the Dragon Age because a High Dragon was spotted, it is also said that it isn't until the end of the century, that the age is named. The game takes place only in 30th year. Spotting the dragon cannot be the reason. More likely, this is a look back at the origins of how the Old God was born.  

Not so, the title Dragon Age: Origins refers to the origins of your character, hence the choosing of your origin at the beginning of the game. What does the reason for the Age's name have anything to do with this? How can you say its the origins of the Old God being reborn into the child? Two things disprove your theory:

1. You don't have to do the ritual with Morrigan, so she won't have the child.

2. Origins refers to the origins of your character. When you create your character, you get to choose an Origin. 

How difficult is it to understand that? Really?

1. Those two things do not 'disprove' my theory. They are in fact, merely statements, which have no bearing on my own statements. My theory is only speculation, and it hinges on the idea that there will be a canonical ending. The canonical ending I theorize will exist is the one including the god child.

2. Just because there are things called origin stories, does not mean that the title can't have multiple meanings. In fact, I think it's far more poetic to have the name Dragon Age: Origins refer to the origins of the Dragon Age, rather than the multiple origins of your character. In literary terms, the title can have multiple meanings. 

Honestly, how hard is that to understand?

It's started, yeah. I just mean they changed the name of the age from one focusing on Orlais (a key supporter of the Chantry) to a name focusing on the Dragons. (The Old Gods are believed to be incredibly powerful dragons.) That's pretty telling.

Some clarification, the High Dragon was spotted at the end of the previous century. At the end of each century, an omen is used to give a name to the next century, so people aren't actually living through the first 99 years of each age wondering what it's going to be called eventually.

So yes, people in this game actually already understand this to be the 30th year of the Dragon Age.

[EJon]

I wouldn't be surprised if the next game ended up in Orlais. You make a good point about Morrigan going there in one of the endings, something about an Empress's court, and the ending with the child showing her going to through the Frostback mountains. Its possible that DA2 will be there if you factor that in. Since thats where she's going, and Bioware said that we haven't seen the last of Morrigan. And didn't the Epilogue state something about the Darkspawn moving into Orlais? Maybe the Warden will go there next and find Morrigan there... Interesting...

[NinjaWJ]

Hmm i think that would be an excellent sequel. However if they keep making sequels about quelling the Blight then im going to get bored. Maybe they will tlak about quelling some type of foreign invasion? Like an Orlaisian attack maybe?>

[EJon]

Is there a way for the Blight to end completely? I know that Duncan mentions something about it in the beginning, but can the Wardens stop the Darkspawn from coming back ever? If the sequel went down that road, then it wouldn't be that boring.



They stopped the Blight in Origins, but what if in the sequel they attempt to destroy the remaining Darkspawn, and the Warden goes to destroy the ones that moved on to Orlais? Just a thought.

[arntson]

(also i may have missed something)the fact is we dont know anything for certain at least i dont maybe theirs something about this in the books but we dont know if theres a black city or if arch demons are really tainted gods we dont know where or what the dark spawn really are also i think their should be a revive for dead wardens like:
*you open your eyes seeing a strange land* where am i... is this the fade...thats right i'm dead *as you survey the land you see only a blissful kingdom filled with peace* something's not right about this place you say *you take a step to approach the kingdom but are pushed back and knocked over you look back for the first time and realize this is the only oasis of light in a sea of black* i guess leliana wasnt so crazy after all you say*you turn back to the peaceful kingdom but this time you see a glorious figure* oh makers breath*you gasp* yes i am who you think none other than the maker but im afraid i cannot allow you to enter*you frown* why not? havent i done enough?*his eyes sadden* im afraid i need you once again to help my people a greater foe threatens not in ferelden though you must venture forth i will return your body to the surface and you to your body which i will repair it to at least i still have that much power left without weakening the barrier please help me help your freinds and lovers and children please say youll return?*you sigh* oh well i suppose i still have a couple of save the worlds in me* and begin

That makes more sense. It still, however, does not mean that what I said isn't true. As history progresses, there could in fact be a greater reason why the Dragon Age was really the Dragon Age. 

[Duhragon]

Just as long bioware can team up with anyone not ea on the support, and this time get real beta testers before launching the game into full swing. DA 2 will be sweet that way.
