Maybe he did. (and if you don't have him in your game then they just make up some crappy excuse)

They've said time and again that there is no canon. Also the 'preset' warden in DA:I is an elf who didnt do the ritual, so technically the closet thing they have to canon isn't the dark ritual

it could be bioware canon.. and a gods soul is such a cool plot line, not using it would be bad story telling

The OGB is Varric. Varric is Flemeth. Flemeth is the OGB.

How cool would it be, that if your warden sacrificed himself and there was no OGB, DA:I starts all merry an happily, and nothing else matters

You may quote Metallica.
Now THAT is "your choice do matter"

A lot of people keep talking about how there is no canon, but if you read any of the BW novels like Asunder, you can see there is clearly a canon that all of them follow.  For example, Wynne was recruited and helped defeat the Archdemon, Shale was recruited also, in the book they make numerous references to other things that the Warden did that could have been done differently if you chose.

So apparently David Gaider does have his own version of the canon.

Yes, the novels presume a certain world-state, but BW have said that your in-game choices (if imported) will not be overwritten by novel or comic "canon", so in that way, there is no canonical state for the games.

The dark ritual is not canon and sorry but yes they do have their own canon or default settings which is the Dalish Warden who does the Ultimate Scarfice and Mage Hawke who sides with mages.

The problem here is that people have a strange idea of what "canon" means-- almost a paranoia, really.
We have a default canon, which applies if you import nothing. So if someone comes to DAI with no import of previous games, they get a certain set of previous decisions being presumed-- and those tend to be ones that don't promise future content.

The Warden of DAO is dead, because why would someone who's importing no save (and is possibly a brand new player) care about their Warden still being alive and involved in the plot? There is no OGB, because why would that person care about Morrigan having a child from some game they possibly never even played?

As for things which don't involve future content, like the sex and race of the Warden, yes-- those we just decided on at some point. So the default Warden who died was a female Dalish elf.

A default should not concern you in the slightest, however, if you intend on importing-- which I assume everyone who's hanging around on these forums a year before release likely is. How we'll do that importing is the subject of a future reveal, it's true, but I'm uncertain why a fan would be concerned about the default settings of a version of the story they'll never use.

And if your version of the definition of canon is "it overrides my previous story", then rest assured that will not happen. The story may not go exactly as you want/expect (as in Leliana being alive, if you killed her in DAO), but that's not the same as those previous actions being treated as if they never happened at all. If we ever decide to move Dragon Age over to one canonical story in-between games, I'm almost positive we would give lots of advance notice to allow fans time to rend garments, burn effigies, and send cupcakes. Until that point, just wait for news on the import feature.

I'm not sure where the "but even if they refuse, the other Grey Wardens of the world may not have the same resolve..." comes from. Speculation on the part of the article writer, perhaps? Regardless, if the player refused the Dark Ritual then it was refused. There is no Old God Baby.

Again if you plan to import a world state then do not worry about what they consider their own canon since it doesn't effect us to much since we have our own.
