I didn't even consider the Epilogue slides might have that information. Thank you for that and the mod. 

 

And thanks, Ranadiel, for the info on the Eluvian.

For anyone who wants to figure out what choices they made in Dragon Age: Origins, I created a website which extracts the choices from your save file, maps them and displays them in the question-answer format of the Keep, so you should generally be able to enter your answers into the keep by simply copy-pasting the output you can see on the website.

I posted it in this thread: http://forum.bioware...ot-viewer-beta/

I realized the Dragon Age: Inquisition forum is quite active, and I'm also not 100% sure I posted it in the right place, so in the hopes of it helping as many people as possible, I decided to post it in here as well. Do remember however that it's currently in beta, and that some choices may not be caught correctly or at all. If that is the case, please leave a comment in that thread. If you can host your save-file that caused the problem somewhere as well, that would be very useful, as it will allow me to figure out which other flags map to particular choices. I'm hoping to get a 'plot complaint' button in there in the upcoming days, after which I'll no longer need your save game to be submitted for analysis.

I like your writing style but your dwarf sure whines a lot. Most surface dwarves seem to build their own lives but yours can't get past the fact that she's casteless. As far as character building goes, I like the veiled racism with telling Elves to move on despite sympathy for mages and inability to drop her own baggage. Out of curiosity, why is she connected to the Carta? Was that the condition of her family leaving Orzammar?

 

 

Thank you. I just kind of put it together this morning. I wanted to explain why she's bitter and yet still has some dreams. I can see why you think she's whiny. Mostly I was going for context and her perspective in light of the world state I will be using. She sees herself being locked in. Like I said, I plan on playing a little differently than I normally do and this will, maybe, help me keep in character. I am kind of envisioning a previous Varric crush, though I haven't decided on that either.

 

Hmm, I guess I always figured the casteless were all connected to the Carta, no matter how loosely. Most of them can't be noble hunters, and I figure the Carta keeps tabs on everyone in Dust Town for their own protection. I don't know if she knows why they left, since she was very young. I always figured the branding was before they were walking.

 

 

Many casteless are involved with the Carta, but most of them are in Dust Town. Since your dwarf's family had left Orzammar, I was wondering why they held that old connection.

 

 

Well, there were a lot of Carta dwarves in Kirkwall. I haven't gone too deep into her background and family history because I don't know whether I'll find out anything in game. Previous acquaintances, etc. I don't want to mess with my immersion. I inferred from the DAI site, perhaps incorrectly, that she wasn't born on the surface. Anyway, for now it's enough. Maybe one day I'll turn it into a fanfic, but I have to finish the current one and maybe another one first  .

 

The Dwarf Inquisitor IS from the Carta. You are a lyrium smuggler.  The reason you are attending the Conclave is because the whole Mage-Templar rebellion is great for the Carta's business, so you are supposed to report back what happens.

Um... you can refuse the ritual and have Loghain do it even as a male? I thought if you were male you HAD to be the one to do it?

Cool, I like that angle.

Yes, if you tell her you won't do it, she will suggest the other Warden. But then you also have to go convince them to do it. I only tried that once and Alistair's response was funny because he acknowledged that I was romancing Morrigan.

I have just encountered Hawke from DA2 in my Inquisition story. Weird thing is though he appears to be a mage and in my world state according to Dragonage Keep my character which I played through is selected and he is a warrior. I also named him differently but I assume they just refer to him as Hawke as that was his default name for everyone.

 

I have been enjoying the game too much to think about every encounter I've had and if it relates to my world state but it is the first which doesn't seem to correspond with my choices.

 

I have checked my keep and the world state I chose is locked and uploaded to DAI.

 

Awesome game regardless, really enjoying it.

Hmm might report that, it could be a bug.  I do know there are some issues with Hawke.  As for his name, yes the name in the Keep doesn't matter, as his name is never said in text or voice anywhere in Inquisition.  Same with the Hero of Ferelden.

Haha that's funny. I'll have to try that some time when Im replaying DAO.

You give Hawke a first name, but he is still only referred to as Hawke. In Origins, it only came up in text responses a few times.

 

What does your inquisition world state say about Hawke? The default Hawke is a male mage and many have had issues of the default worldstate loading instead of their custom one.

[Devil's Avocado]

Another way you could have checked sooner was talking to varric about Hawke earlier, he'll give a lot of information regarding his/her companions and which side he/she was on.

[AbsolutGrndZer0]

Yes, but there are issues where what Varric or Leliana says will contradict what is said later.  For example, Leliana talks in my first playthrough about her friend who is the Queen of Ferelden.  The Quartermaster mentions how Loghain was executed by King Alistair.   But 67 hours into the game, I talk to Morrigan and her son, to find out that Morrigan was the Hero of Ferelden's lover and they had a child together.  When she's done helping the Inquisition she and her son will be reunited with HIM.  While it did not happen to me, I've heard of at least one person who had a Hawke gender swapped in game, despite what Varric said.  So, it's not just loading the right world state, it's the game itself reading that world state properly in ALL cases, and it doesn't do that. 

 

Come on Bioware, didn't we go through this with Dragon Age 2 and you assured us that was one of the reasons the Keep is superior to straight save imports?  Obviously not.  Normally I'm not so antagonistic to a company, but this time I am.  With all the hype they gave Dragon Age Keep that it would solve all these problems... it's simply unacceptable that it so obviously did not.  Bioware, you failed.   Now excuse me while I go play my elven archer and hope she doesn't encounter any "WTF that's not what happened" moments.

And this is all in one playthrough? Then the issue can not be the Keep, as the game can't seem to decide on what worldstate is loaded.

[AbsolutGrndZer0]

Yes, it's not the Keep (which @dragonagekeep told me how to verify my world state by looking at what the game uploads BACK to the Keep).  It seems from many others that have the trouble that the game sees no difference between stabbing Morrigan and going through the Eluvian with her.  The Keep knows the difference, the game doesn't  The bug is in the game itself.

[mireisen]

I had 20 hours in before I finished the Redcliffe mages quest...and saw Anora...I flipped a few tables. 

[Natureguy85]

I have one question about the keep: Can Alistair become King but remain with the wardens at the same time or no?

 

No. Remains with the Gray Wardens means he does the Order's business.

So, I'd like others' opinions of what I did before I actually start the game. This will be my first Dragon Age game, so I want as clean a slate as possible. To do this, I basically chose all the choices that would kill off everyone, leaving me as few ties to the old games as possible. I'm sure I would have made different decisions if I were playing the games, but I figured I could live with a few evil choices to create the world if it meant a fresh start for my character and not too much world history that I am unfamiliar with.

 

What do you guys think? Should I go about this differently or is it a legitimate strategy?

 

Thanks!

[Natureguy85]

Why not? The great thing about the keep is that you can make any playthrough you want without having to go through the other games to set it up. So go wild.

Well, that works a lot better in DAI than it did in say Mass Effect 3 because in Mass Effect 3 every single major character from the previous games shows up to some capacity in 3, as long as they survived the previous games.  But, with DAI there is only 2 characters that are previous companions that show up no matter what, 2 previous characters (one of which your character met and talked to, the other who you didn't actually ever speak to).  So, if you run into Loghain or you run into Alistair or you run into Stroud, really if you haven't played the previous games, you have about as much an idea who one is as the others.

 

Now, as to someone who has done "really bad" playthroughs (both in ME and DAI... in fact I had one playthrough in ME1-3 where the only previous game characters to return in 3 were Ashley, Miranda, and Jack.  Literally everyone else was dead.)  It can be really fun to hear people in DAI talk about how "Oh yah The Hero of Ferelden... she may have saved us all, but I hate her." hehe.

Interesting since Jack is easily lost. Why did you spare her? Trying to set up Shepard's harem?

What of course not... why would you think that? *hides the evidence of Shepard being a womanizing jerk, pays off all the girls*

[ForTheGamer]

Here's what I'm about to do for my Inquisition run, since I got it as an early birthday gift. Though my birthday has now passed and I just wanna play the shiny new game instead of the older ones.

 

DAO - Lyna, The Dalish Hero

I like to think of the Hero as someone who tries to do the best to keep the most people alive, even if they've accidentally (or intentionally) did bad things. This tied me into the Dalish Elf Origin, because that Origin isn't really attached to any storyline and seems very much an outsider, but seemingly goes out of the way to help everyone. I also made the Hero a female, so that Alistair can be romanced and also end up as his Mistress, to at least give him a happy life as King. I made her class rogue, to have better specializations for her archery. Also, yes, the three people you have choices on killing (Architect, Keep Mage, and Loghain) all are alive, simply due to her nature. Demons are dead, because demons be demons.

 

Oh, and since she survives the battle, you totally know Loghain and Morrigan are a proud papa and mama.

 

DAK - The Dis(ch)arming Cad, Garrett Hawke

Here I pretty much settled for the PV Hawke. A male battle mage, but I gave him humor, simply because he has to laugh as life keeps kicking him like it would a puppy. I mostly have him side with the mages. Yet I do have him make the Templars leave (peaceful) in the beginning and I do hand over the traitors to Meredith, because he doesn't want things exploding out of control. That's basically his wish, is to do what he can to stop the situation from exploding further. Also hook him up with Merrill so as to bring a connection to the Hero this way.

[Chozen]

Can anyone tell me how to import my "hero" into a world state!? It's literally frustrating how different and not user friendly this keep thing is, since I first used it. My hero literally won't appear in a new world state... I'm trying to get my DA:O Elf and DA2 Hawke to appear in my world state!? Help please.
