jk but I would have loved that if I was creating my own story)
The blue one.....
But in seriousness I don't want the maker in this game at all. That's one of the goodnesses about Da, there's is no real answer to "is the maker real?"
As for my perfect ending... how the hell should I know?
I want it to end with all the nations worn out from the chaos, seeing a massive fleet of Qunari dreadnoughts approaching with Sten at the head of a ship,*fade to black*
The true mastermind is defeated by the Inquisition, who are now hailed throughout the continent as heroes. But there is still a world to put back together, and the Inquisitor, his companions, and lieutenants now turn to the map in the war room back at Skyhold to determine where to start.
Too standard?

But thats doesnt mean there shouldnt be one, this is a fantasy game not the real world. In my opinion you make it sound like it should be boring. In a way I understand what you mean but adding such a complex story with the maker its what makes dragon age games interesting for me and for some of my friends. The search for the maker and the truth behind it. We are hoping he exist but not in a simple way such as he was a very powerful blood mage with lyrium,etc.

What he meant was that the question as to whether or not the Maker exists should be left open. He shouldn't just pop in and go, "Yup, here I am!" We should never get a real answer so we can continue the fun game of speculation.

I know what he meant. Just like mass effect, people wanted to leave the reapers origins unknown but in mass effect 3 with dlc you find out pretty much everything, some people disliked it but in the end what matter is what were the developers idea about the story and what most players wanted to see in it. Alot of people wanted to know about the reapers origins and so we got it. The initial ending wasnt good for ME3 but with the free extended dlc it was perfect for me and for some other people I know but like always there will always be a few or some who will disagree its human nature with different opinions and ideas.

Exactly. It's something that can be left ambiguous without being incomplete.
I'm pretty sure Gaider's confirmed that there will be no answer as to whether or not the Maker truly exists, ever, so that Maker ending probably isn't going to happen.
I think I'd like an ending where the Inquisitor definitely lives (or at least, their death wouldn't be canon) so that we could actually have a continuous DA protagonist for the next game, instead of having a new one each time.

Exactly this is what I was about to say, though I am not sure if what he said its actually confirming it since they can change their mind but so far that is what they want to do for now, keeping it neutral. In which I understand, it keeps it interesting and continue my search. However I was hoping that they eventually add and confirm the maker in the story in a future dragon age game if not this one,that will be a good ending to the dragon age series just like it did with the mass effect games. (though they are making a new one not 4) Again to everyone, this thread is about YOUR ending, do try to focus on what is you ideal ending first and then talk about another person ending second.

The reapers weren't god.
Most fantasy games and worlds in general have deities that are real DA doesn't (other than the old gods but they don't really count in my opinion).
DA has a god that may or may not exist and if it does may or may not be anything like people think it is. I don't really want that question answered because it's more realistic for it to not be.
There is also the fact that there are a bunch of other religions that are all different and proving one true kind of invalidates the others and I would hate bioware to just side with the humans. Why is it the maker that must be real and not the creators? Or maybe the Qunari have it right after all, or the Dwarves?
I wouldn't be against learning more about characters like Andraste though and unknown history in general, that's always interesting.
Seeing as we seem to actually have a central big bad this time, I'd like a one-on-one boss fight that's actually good. I hate it when you have a villain all built up to be awesome but he needs to throw countless mooks at you to actually fight you.

You are really misunderstanding what I am saying.

I'm not, I am just expanding on why revealing the maker as real (or not real) would be a bad idea in my opinion and I also explained why it wasn't the same as the ME thing.

A green one. No, a red one!
No a blue one!
Seriously though, an ending that closes what happened with hawk and the warden (living ones) would be nice, oh and the inquisitor too. Something like 'and they lived out the rest of their days with *insert LI* Somesay they had children, others say that *LI* slayed them; when there calling came.'
*underlined part different for hawkes and inquisitors.*
"OUT with the OLD GODS, in with the NEW GODS"
Entering the Black City, gates still open (lol tevinter magisters can't close doors!) The Quizzy finds the giant golden skeleton, crown and all, of the Maker on his throne. Clearing the skeleton away, the Quizzy takes the crown and sits upon his throne to take his place as the new God. Then, afterwards, the Black City turns into one of three colours depending on your characters choice: The Red City kills all the Demons and Mages, but leaves the fade tear open with the possibility of the Mage threat returning. The Blue City makes both Demons and Mages imbued with the Quizzys will, but at the cost of their existence, the fade tear closes. The Green City merges Thedas and the Fade together, as they once were, forcing everyone to become mages and possesing them with Demons, but forcing the Quizzy to sacrifice their entire body rather than, I dunno, chopping off a finger, because reasons.
I hope for an ending where the Inquisitor and friends save the day and defeat the mastermind, and celebrate their victory with one big cuddle puddle. 
But, in an after credits scene we see some shadowy figures discussing how their plans for Thedas have moved forward thanks to the Fade Tears taking attention away from what they were doing.
I don't really want that question answered because it's more realistic for it to not be.
Why should a fantasy game be realistic? I would rather dragon age stays away from reality as possible otherwise people will just argue.
Fantasy: n. noun
The creative imagination; unrestrained fancy.
Something, such as an invention, that is a creation of the fancy.
A capricious or fantastic idea; a conceit.
To imagine; visualize.
I do understand though about the other in-game religions, thats why like you said. "If" the maker is eventually revealed its not as people will expect. Thats why I said a corrupted maker, maybe he might even the most powerful spirit,etc. Not exactly the same god as the chantry thought but kind of close. My point is that I hope eventually the maker is revealed but so far their plans its keeping it neutral. Maybe until the time is right, anybody who dislike the idea "might" mean they are mixing real world beliefs with that of a game ofcourse not everyone. Anyways I wont continue this, I just leave it all to the developers to make the game story and lore right for the majority of players and for their view of their story.
Also what your ideal ending?

All fantasy and fiction in general is based on real life. There is always going to be some realism. you could use the same argument for getting rid of humans from Thedas after all why should there be humans in a fantasy game?
Dragon Age explores real life issues in a fantasy setting, one of these is religion.
Well your opinion is your opinion but the Maker has been set up to be much like the god of our Abrahamic religions so any reveal or invalidation of his existence would seem like a statement to me, one I would rather they didn't make because the player should chose what their character believes.
Religious belief or non belief is quite important to some of the DA characters I have played in the past and you can't really expedience that in many other fantasy games.
As for my perfect ending? I dunno, I would rather my character didn't end up dead but other than that I don't have a perfect ending.
