There was a neutral option and they took it out? Great, another case of "drama over common sense": Just what I needed.AresKeith wrote...
Well the neutral option that was taken out the game, makes the ending make a lot more sense

Hmm.....I guess that might work. I have a hard-time seeing it, but I've played Hawkes who didn't see things as I do before.Jedi Master of Orion wrote...
Because Hawke could believe that the mages winning would cause more casualties in the long run. Meredith's choice to annul the Circle may not have been the right choice, but one could easily believe that helping her do it would avoid excess collateral damage that might come with the alternative.

The DA2 forums are dead. If you want any kind of discussion you sadly need to place the thread in here.Wulfram wrote...
Shouldn't this be on the DA2 forum?
My Templar siding Hawke sided with the Templars on the grounds that it was the best way to limit casualties. Since they were liable to win anyway. And also they were worried as to the consequences if the Mages did win. I can't say I agree with them, but I don't think they're evil.

Apart from that, Meredith also makes it clear that she wants to invoke the Right of Annulment because she's giving in to the mob. This alone makes it impossible to side with Meredith for me. Because if she is going to give into mob rule in such an extreme way, she has failed as a leader and templar.

Hope you enjoyed siding with the man who helped the very guy who killed your mother and alot of other innocent women.Barquiel wrote...
Even if every single mage (including apprentices ranging from young children to teenagers) in the gallows was a blood mage, I cannot possibly see ANY justification for the Right of Annulment in Kirkwall. The circle mages didn't commit the crime, it's as simple as that. But Meredith didn't care. She even leaves Anders fate up to Hawke. To quote Sebastian..."Why are we discussing the right of Annulment when the bastard who did this is right here?"

Why is this thread in the Inquisition section?
No idea. Probably because DA2 threads are loaded with them.

Yes, I enjoyed defending the mages from an unjust execution, thank you.
I hope you enjoyed to help Meredith executing hundreds of innocent men, women and children to appease a hypothetical mob...because of the actions of a single apostate mage.

Orsino is intellectually and emotionally inept for the job of First Enchater. His job is to prepare his students to over come the temptations of demons. He failed on a monumental level. Instead of helping the Knight Commander, the other part of his job, he blocked her at every chance he got. Oppressed or not, his inability to fulfill the role of the First Enchated is the cause of every horror you face in Kirkwall. Even Anders is just a symptom.

Without that knowledge, though? Well, the greater likelihood of winning is hard to argue against. It's good to take a stand and all, but sometimes you have to choose to live another day, and try to make sure you are (more) ready next time.

It was clear Orisno was hiding osmething, he had no reason to stop Meredith from investagting the mages after the fiasco with Grace. He didn't want her because he knew what she would find. Look at Irving. Irving while sometimes got in an argument with Gregor, he still ehlped Gregor. Orsino didn't want to help Meredith, that is fishy. It's then revealed why. So yes you can play a Hawke is thinks Orisno is hiding something.MWImexico wrote...
Is Hawke supposed to know about Orsino when he is forced to side with the templars or the mages?

I did it with my mage Hawke, if only because I imbued him with the foresight to know it would get him in the Viscount's seat. This way, he'll work in the interest of mages without the nuclear response a full-fledged revolution would invite.

Orsino's incompetence was clear from the first play through for me. Only reason I sided with them the first time is because by the end Meredith is so twisted and paranoid you don't want to help her. Or atleast I didn't. At the end of act two she is atleast reasonable. The idol combined with the destruction of the chantry sent her over the edge into full kill mode.

Yes, in my DA2 Varric mentions how many mages survived in the mage ending. He doesn't mention any survivors in the templar ending. That means no mage survived and any prisoners would have either had to have been executed later or made tranquil.

Don't forget that he allowed a blood mage serial killer to remain at large.

The problem is that Meredith doesn't want Orsino's help and she also won't let the nobilty pick a new vicount and that is not her job.
