I'd like to know how the Griffons became extinct. That would make for interesting Codex reading.

 I don't know if anyone mentioned this, so if this has been covered, then ignore me. I just don't feel like going through the pages.
The argument "Well Dragons were supposed to be extinct" is, quite honestly, a weak argument.
Obviously Dragons are not extinct in the DA universe.
We have seen them since the first game.
There is a huge difference between what the people of Thedas think and what we, as the player, know.

Most people in the DA universe go their whole lives without seeing a dragon.
Therfore, they believe them to be extinct.
But in actuality, they are not.

However, Griffons have been extinct for 200 years.
We have no evidence to disprove that.

I really doubt that the DA Team is just gonna punch their own lore in the face just because some of us want to see something that is extinct.
And if in the off chance that they do put Griffons in DA3, there probably will only be a handful and they'll all probably  be in the possession of the Grey Wardens.

Why wouldn't they punch their own lore in the face? They already brought dead characters back to life because they felt like it.

Why not bring something back that will make everyone happy?

I'll assume(dangerous I know) that griffins are an egg laying species, that way you can find some eggs, work a little blood magic/fade spirit mojo and then have a baby griffin that you could raise throughout the game just in time for a cool cinematic where the hero flies in and saves the day or drops the villain to his death. Or pull the old, dreamer plus pride demon pulled into reality brings along a special surprise.

Javick.

I'm sure the DA team would never do something like that...

I'm going summon David Gaider here by doing the 'David Gaider Rain Dance Summoning Ritual'. With any luck he'll see this thread and consider it.

Man, don't get my hopes up with this griffon talk if there aren't actually going to be griffons in it.

I can promise only statues at this point, alas. But they are pretty big statues, so that's something.

Bolded mine. Which to me suggests that there is a possibility of Griffons existing in a wild state on an uncharted/unexplored island. Whether Bioware would show that in a game, I dunno.

But I find it likely they might, based on Mike's suspicious wording.

Come on David old chap, we need Griffins in DA3.
Who *does not* want to fly around on a griffin? Nobody that matters, that's who!

No, but seriously, PLEASE GIEF ME GRIFFIN IN DA3.

[Han Yolo]

No griffins. I want unicorns. Pink ones.

That's ridiculous there's no such thing... They only come in white.

No. They're too busy being extinct.

So are the Dragons. Wait, everyone in Thedas was wrong about that one too.

The game is freakin called Dragon Age. When Bioware releases a game called Griffon Age, then we'll talk.

It's called Dragon Age because of the codex entry. The game itself isn't about dragons so you're not making much of an argument.

It's called Dragon Age because the series takes place in a hundred year era called the Dragon Age. The Chantry calendar breaks things down into century-long periods called 'ages'. So yes, I guess it does refer to a codex entry in the first game in a way.

Look, I think the idea of a Griffon companion or mount is silly, however I do agree that "Griffon Age" argument is a very weak one.

Only if we get to choose if we have to allow the last griffons to live or die (like the Rachni choice in ME1)

That would be pretty cool.

So you want to bring back a species that has been extinct for decades......okay

Might as well then ask Flemeth if she can bring back some of her old god friends for a Ferelden tea party.

It's not as outlandish as ME3 and Javick. There are still regions in the DA universe that haven't been explored so who can really say ALL the griffons are dead? I'm sorry, but saying they're all dead seems more far fetched then saying there may be some alive some where.
