I don't expect them to completely change the playing field, but it'd be nice to see them acknowledged and perhaps a little more.
But I am really interested in how we've touched the fates of individual's throughout the series. The small things. For one I think they're much more malleable, since they don't have as deep an impact the big ones. But also because these conflicts all have faces.
This is both how we resolved the various companion plots. Did we help Sten? What did we do to Marjorlaine? What about Velanna, Sigrun and Ohgren? What did Merill do to the Eluvian? Did Aveline marry Donnic? Did Isabela get her ship? Is Anders alive? Did Fenris spare his sister?
But also all the small side quests we go through...
What happened to Kaitlyn and Bevin? How is brother Genitivi's career looking? What happened to Feynriel (and Connor for that matter, not that he's side quest)? How are things looking for Cammen and Gheyna? What happened to the Blackstone Irregulars? How did things turn out for Dagna? Brother Burkel? How did things turn out for Lia? And for Pryce? Renvil Harrowmont? ANd so forth...
Of course, not all need to be followed up on. But it'd be nice to see if some of them are.

Who sits the Orzammar Throne
What Boon was selected
Loghain's fate
Those are the 4 main ones for me, To a lesser extent i'd also like the side quests determining what happens to certain factions to play a role such as what happened to the Mages collective, who leads the Blackstone Irregulars who's in charge of Fereldens criminals and so on

I'd like to see how the different combinations of leadership you can have in Ferelden play out. I really would like some more Anora content since she is awesome IMO.
This. I'd also like some acknowledgement of my Warden being married to her and whether they conceived an heir or not.

-Snip- But I am aware the same promise was made to the ME fans and the ME team failed to deliver. So I feel skeptical that the DA team can deliver on that promise in all circumstances . -Snip-
That's not really a fair indictment of ME3. During the main body of the game, the decisions made in the previous two games were acknowledged and most of the dangling plot threads were wrapped up. All of your genophage choices, your geth choices, your romantic relationships--even choices you make regarding whether to let seemingly minor characters live--these are pretty well respected over the main body of the campaign. The only problem is that they are all rendered moot at the end, and at least one entire category of choices is at best completely ignored and at worst entirely controverted and rendered a complete waste of your time and effort.
When BioWare guys talk about the end of ME3 they sometimes use the word "bleak." I don't think they are using that word to describe the story outcomes at the end of the game, I think they are referring to the fact that so much hard work and great storytelling was invalidated by the ending which was apparently thrown together at the last minute. Literally, he was bangin' out script pages while the voice actors were in the booth.
There are two reasons why I am not worried about that happening in DA:I. The first is that EA seems to be giving the DA team the time needed to fully develop this title; while there is always time pressure in development the schedule seems to be much more realistic than the one for ME3 or DA][.
The second reason is that David Gaider isn't (apparently) going anywhere. I don't begrudge Drew Karpyshyn his choice to leave BioWare to pursue his own thing, I think he unequivocally earned it with years of great work. The fact remains, however, that the efforts to fill his shoes as lead writer on the Mass Effect team was not wildly successful. I think the importance of Gaider's continuing involvement overseeing world design and preserving narrative cohesion cannot be overstated.

To be entirely fair, people said the same thing about ME3 being delayed from Fall 2011 to Spring 2012, that EA was giving Bioware the time to make it right. I would say many felt that didn't actually pan out.
I do agree, however, with the fact that Gaider is staying on as Lead Writer can only be good for the series. I don't want to overplay Drew's role in ME (despite it beig hugely significant) nor seek to bash Mac anymore than has been done, but there is a natural tendency to put your own stamp on something when you take the reigns from someone else. I think Mac may have felt he was doing that, but didn't realize his own view on things would be at odds with how many felt both the narrative and the underlying themes of the ME series compared to many other fans.
In my ignorant but honest opinion, I think a lot of DA2's changes that are widely criticized were the same result as well, where Laidlaw was taking the reigns from Brent Knowles. The idea that "okay, here's what we've done in the past, but here's something new that will set the series (read between the lines - MYSELF) apart from what has come before." I doubt it was even a conscious mindset, but I feel it is one that was present and contributed to both ME3 and DA2's woes.

Honestly, I don't really care about stuff like who's on the throne or whether or not Feynriel is Tranquil or in Teventer.
I suppose also it would be important that my Hawke's personality carry over, if he did make an appearance (or sent a snarky / diplomatic / aggressive letter).

I honestly prefer each game being its own because this was problem with ME, If you didn't play atleast the 2nd game you were screwed over on some bits if not most. Hell we cant even get a proper sequel, So again I say NONE

What about previous book canon. Obviously Maric's interactions with Flemeth and Yevana have to be cannon imo and will affect DAI, for better or worse and we players had no input into that.

-Old God Child
-Architect
-What happens in case you betray your companions, i.e. give Isabela to the Arishok or Fenris to Danarius.
-Feynriel
-Feynriel
-Feynriel
did I say Feynriel? He's supposed to be the only Somniari alive if you save him after all, half of Thedas should be squabbling over him.

Actually, he is just the only known dreamer in Andrastian Thedas. The comics prove that Dreamers still seem to occur in Tevinter every now and then. Magister Titus in the comics was a Dreamer.
