well maybe what im thinking of was a bioware response to some of the feedback or surveys stating that they understood that many players wanted to see Morrigan and OGB in DA3?

May I put this to rest?
If the player didn't do the Dark Ritual, or didn't get Alistair or Loghain to do it, then it wasn't done. Had Morrigan figured out some way to otherwise do it, then nobody would have died when the Archdemon was slain. If she had some way to go about getting the Archdemon's soul without resorting to the Dark Ritual as she proposed it, then why did she go through all the trouble?
We could undoubtedly come up with some complex Plan B on Morrigan's part whereby she gets the Archdemon's soul but has to do something far more terrible-- but a) that removes the player's agency in the biggest single choice of Origins andwould probably be pretty lame.

While I won't discuss how the Dark Ritual decision will affect future games, I can say (and have said) that the choice won't be ignored-- it's pretty fundamental. So Morrigan will have a son only if she either romanced a male Warden or if the Dark Ritual was performed... and in only the latter case will that son be the so-called OGB.
Whether how the Dark Ritual affects future games is considered sufficient is a different matter completely. Considering that some people have expressed that the existence of the OGB should be the entire plot around which such a game revolves, it's perhaps unlikely. That kind of expectation can't be helped. Regardless, the choice will neither be ignored nor made into a footnote.

If you mean the so-called "Old God Baby" will exist, regardless of whether the player took the Dark Ritual decision in DAO or not-- I can categorically say that this assumption is incorrect.
I have several Bioware quotes bookmarked for circumstances like this. Also, as you can see, while that first one is two years old (which I hadn't noticed), the second is four months and the third is three months, so the same issues crop up repeatedly. The majority of my saves are regarding the voiced PC, dialogs, and stuff like that.DarkSpiral wrote...
That's impressive work, nightscrawl. The first DG quote is a couple of years old at this point. Do you have it bookmarked for reference?

It's not so much relevant as it is "fun" - but the Epilogue texts for Origins does state that a young woman fitting Morrigan's description had insinuated herself into the Empress of Orlais' court.
Not sure how she did that AND disappeared into the Eluvian - but there you go.

Wasn't that one of the epilogue texts that they retconned? Besides, one could say Cassandra matches Morrigan's general description so it could theoritically be anyone.

Fans want a lot of things.

I'm thinking Morrigan's son can actually be an optional party member in a future Dragon Age game. He'll only appear if the Warden romanced Morrigan and declined the Dark Ritual or if the Dark Ritual was done.
If Morrigan's son resulted from the Dark Ritual then he gets an optional powerup ability that improves the power of his spells. I.E. he taps into his 'old god soul' for a temporary power boost.
