They're Canon if they line up with the events of your save in some way, Sten becomes Arishok as long as he survives in origins.

It's not a retcon just because some people played that outcome instead of another. It wasn't set in place meaning it had no canon decision. Now it does. That's different from a retcon (unless you count headcanon as actual canon).
Also in regards to comics and books mention earlier. The comics and books are not canon because they line up with some playthroughs. If they're canon it's because the developers say they are and that future games will take note of what goes on in them and incorporate them into future games.

Indeed, Bioware never said that there was a Canon story for DA. Every decision made on-screen are valid. Some people want that Bioware scraps the import and makes a canon plot for every games, but this is another topic.Reidbynature wrote...
Every decision can't be canon. That sounds more like no canon at all and just leaving every decision valid.
Like I said about the comics. If they are it's because Bioware said so, not because they line up with one of my playthroughs.

I love Sten's character. He really irritated me at first, but is now one of my favorites, once I understood how to talk to him. Of course he was given the 'the cake is a lie' line too, which was so funny. The cookies thing was priceless. SPOILER: Yeah, the comic says he's now Arishok, and has gone off with Alistair to find Titus. I hope we get to learn more about all of that in DA3.
Actually, I'm pretty sure that there were some bugs with the importer; some of the apparent retcons could just be glitches...hhh89 wrote...

Having Alistair dead in DAO, and when importing in DA3 you'll have him alive and King is in no way anything else than a retcon, unless DA3 will not have an import feature and there'll be a single storyline to follow, in which Alistair is the king. Headcanon would be believing that my female Cousland continues to rule Ferelden with Alistair even though in DA2 it's said that the Warden disappeared. Events that are shown on-screen are canon, and Bioware said so in regards of Anders's death in DA2. They could change it, if the events allow such freedom (for example, they could make in DA3, in the case that Alistair was exiled, that when he returned to Ferelden Anora died and he become king), but if a NPC, died, he should stay dead. Again, Gaider said that. They could change their thinking, but as far as we know, this will be their stance on the matter,
About the comics, the developers said clearly, more than once, that those events will happened as it was shown in the comics if the choices in the games are the same of the ones in the comics. Otherwise, the events will be different, or not happened at all. This was said by Gaider himself.

How much is the full version?

With all this heavy forecasting of at least partly sunny skies with a good chance of a Sten-filled weekend, I'll need to stock up on cookies and twine (cats gotta train, yo).
