Do we know what happens to the relationships formed by the PC in Origins, once you import the character to Awakening. I mean I understand only 1 partymember from Origins returns. But what about the others?
Don't know. I doubt we'll see most of them due to the way their epilouges went. Melo did say there would be somes cameos so perhaps a few will make an appearence as NPC's.
Alistair seems to be in the game. What if you married him and became the queen, will the people/Alistair refer to you in a unique manner? Or will the expansion just pretend that the relationship between Alistair and the PC never happened and you are not the queen, no matter what.
Bioware says they will carry over the choices your character made in Origins, to what extenet is up for speculation. I'd assume major ones such as the one you listed would indeed carry over. As to the actual effect it'll have in the game, if it gets reconized there is no reason to assume it wouldn't have an impact so perhaps some NPC's and companions will refer to you as queen, that's not some over the top super complicated thing to do.
What about the other potential romances. If you romanced Leliana and ended the game with the idea that you would stay together, how will Awakening deal with that? Will the game ignore the relationship with Leliana not appearing anywhere? Will it be said that during the time between the end of Origins and start of Awakening the romance ended somehow. Or will we get scenes/dialog between the PC and Leliana,Zevran or Alistair, even if they don't join the party.
Honestly don't know, I would assume characters like Lel and Zev would make some sort of appearnece if they were romanced. Their epilouges support it and there isn't really any story or gameplay reason for them not to be so the question is would it add to much from the technical and finanical side to warrant the gain. Personally I do believe they'll play some sort of role, but reality is I know as much as you. Nothing.
What of friendships? If you developed a close friendship with a party member and that party member was not said to leave in the epilogue, will he/she be somewhere in Awakenings for you to talk to and generally continue that friendship somehow, even if they dont actually join the party.
Pretty much the same as above. Story and gameplay reasons don't prohibit it so it comes back to time and money, my assumption still is though that if they didn't leave in the epilouge they will be there to some level of degree. There are only 4 characters that have any real chance of coming back if we use the epilouges as a foundation of sorts for Awakening and 4 VA's voicing a couple of roles for their characters isn't unreasonable to assume.
Do the origins themselves play some role? In Origins, people reacted to you differently based on your origin. Will this continue, does anyone know? Will imported Nobles get unique dialog different from say Dalish or mages?
I believe Melo said Origins will play a role. Exactly what and how I don't know.
With more levels, will that just mean we can choose more existing
powers, or will their be new powers? Like all the magic and combat
powers continue with new and more powerful/interesting magic and melee
moves?
There are new talents to pick from, that's been confirmed.
