Leliana and the warden drifting apart makes sense. Wardens have to do warden things.
Not sure why Isabella isn't with Hawke anymore since in the comics she gets her own crew/ship and eventually haves Alistairs baby.
not necessarily you had option to leave wardens and do many other things like helping ruler , being chancellor or just continue adventure and i rly hope they won't mess with that and destroy character i have played.

About the ship: is it the same ship blackmailed Castillon for or a different one? Or is it vauge enough that it can be one or the other?
About comics and well every other da products other than games and after games , they show story when certain decisions were made.For example wynne is important character in asunder still we can kill her so asunder shows story when wynne is alive. Is confirmed that isabela in comics had romance with hawke?
I don't see "former LIs without their significant others" as a huge story problem. It sounds more like a fan problem. (Majority or minority, I couldn't say.) Leliana being in the Inquisition without her Warden lover isn't going to cause story problems, but it might annoy people who romanced her.
I think it's great then she can give us refrences to what happend during her time with the Warden awww the memories
I see others have covered this concept already, but just because two characters are involved romantically doesn't mean they have to be glued together at the hip. They can still live separate lives, do their own separate jobs, etc. Surely you know of married people who work for different employers. It's the same concept. That doesn't mean they are no longer romantically involved with their partners when they are apart, or have to go on a business trip. It only means they're focusing on something important to them in their life, right now, and will return to their partner later.
So no, it's not a major story problem, at least not for me. I guess it depends on the player how important it is, and whether they feel the characters would want to be close constantly?
I thought it was said that you could customize the Warden and Hawke and that they would appear in this.
Whatever the case, I will be really sad if Hawke isn't in this. Hawke vanishing is very suspicious and I want to know what Hawke is doing because it's very unlikely anyone captured or is holding Hawke anywhere considering the accomplishments and feats that Hawke pulled off.
The Warden and Hawke are also hugely important characters within the story and I doubt Varric would be fine having his best pal Hawke MIA, especially when the world needs Hawke.

Importing world states is a great dream..a "killer feature" for RPG storytelling.. but I haven't had many expectations to begin with. It's rarely going to be done justice. Whatever element you think is important (plots, romances, etc). At this point, I'm open to using the Keep's default worldstate and forgetting the past entirely.
I'd like to be proven wrong though.

That was, what our Hopes and Dreams said.

Bioware has already done it before though with Mass Effect and even DA2 allowed you choose a minimal world state even if you didn't import.
I would rather we be given those options since importing obviously wont work due to next gen consoles. Not to mention that I want a proper conclusion to the Warden and Hawke stories, especially Hawke's.

That was? Is it not the case anymore?

Mass Effect 3 didn't reflect much about I approached the world before. I barely even recognized Shepard. I don't exactly hold that against it though. I think the number of changes to really do it justice became insurmountable.
DA2 didn't have to do this much. I appreciate the little side quests and nods to the previous game state, but it had the benefit of not mattering too much. It was a game to be enjoyed on it's own. The previous story didn't make many effects on Kirkwall. There are different expectations now for DAI, but I only suggest to keep the expecations down. Else you might set yourself up for disappointment.
There's a reason why Dragon Age 3 is marketed as Dragon Age Inquisition, rather than Dragon Age 3.
Yes, devs in the past have argued that Dragon Age 2 shall be named Dragon Age 2 so there won't be any "confusion" for expansion packs and stuff.
Frankly,I am glad they took out the sequelitis number this round.
Mass Effect is the tale of Shepard.
Dragon Age is NOT the tale of the Warden nor is it the tale of Hawke.
Dragon Age is the tale of Thedas, set in the Dragon Age (think Stone Age, Ice Age, etc).
I wish people understand that Mass Effect and Dragon Age aren't the same kind of franchise (aside from one being scifi and the other being high fantasy, obviously).
Isabela - Hawke + Leliana - Warden = Having amazing sex.
Yeah I don't think Isabela wants my very angry hulk smash warden chasing her around. Cassandra and Leliana fine whatever. Isabela? Hell no.
Mass Effect is the tale of Shepard.
It isn't about Shepard anymore.
Like DE, ME bear an element of the universe in this title, the original trilogy is the tale of Shepard, not the series as a whole.
About this
I wonder if Inquisition will mark the end of the Drago Age? And (depending on how well you do) the dawn of a new Age? There seems to be a lot of great upheavals of the status quo going on.

From what I understand, an Age is 99 years or so. We're only midway through (9:40 Dragon).

That's up to writing. The option is still nice and at least would cover romance, gender, and big events. Would be nice if you could choose if your Hawke had been a overly positive, witty or very aggressive.
Even though DA2 was enclosed big things did happen there and important characters were shaped by it. Especially if you did the DLC stuff.
Eh, my expectations are low. I'm not suggesting Bioware do something drastic. All I'm suggesting is Bioware do what they've already done to decent effect for Mass Effect and apply it to DAI.

The Warden and Hawke are very important characters in the take of Thedas. Whatever happened to them when DAI starts is why they need the Inquisitor. It would be very harmful for the narrative not to address those heroes and what they're up to that makes it so important that they cannot help the Inquisitor out. After all, the events of DAI are huge in scope and not closed off to only one country or city. It's affecting the entire known world.

Oh, we're in agreement then. The option is nice. Like I said, it's a killer feature. I'm not saying to take it away. I just think game development might not be "there yet" to make these ideas live up to all we expect them to be. Either that, or it requires twice the man hours. Vastly differing world states sounds like a ton of work (when games already are a ton of work).
When I say I might just play the default world state, that's just me personally. I don't necessarily recommend it. I just know that I can be happy with it.

I don't see it as a killer feature. Bioware cannot really do Imports this time around due to the next gen console stuff, so this fits the same situation that ME2 for the PS3 faced as they didn't get ME1.
Bioware wont improve the system if they don't work on it and put it out there for feedback from the fanbase. I'm sure many would really appreciate that past decisions still have an impact and that their personal Warden and Hawke had an impact on things and maybe even show up.
Having Varric tear up upon meeting Hawke again and Leliana doing as such when meeting the Warden again would be very emotional as well for many.
Anyone have a source on the rumor that Isabela is returning in DA:I? Far from it being a problem, I'd be absolutely giddy with delight if I knew she was coming back.
Yeah alright THAT's the biggest problem this story faces, phew that must be a load off the writing teams mind.
Luckily for me I didn't like any of the DA2 romances I guess, Seeing as they all boiled down to a smelly pirate hooker, An idiot women-child, An idiot who wouldnt stop crying about how much the mages are opressed, and an idiot who wouldn't stop crying about how evil mages and Tevinter are.
Oh and Choir boy, the chantrys dog.
As for Origins My Warden with Morrigan...eh they are both persuing their ambitions as Advisor to Celene / Prince of Ferelden and he's probably at home caring for his OGB shaping him into the next Emperor of the world.
Alistair is too busy being a King/Warden, Zevran is too busy being a complete badass and working his way to eventually take over the Crows, and Leliana is too busy...Doing w/e shes doing..Advising my hopefully Badass Inquisitor
Anyway to repeat what some have already essentially said, People place to much importance in romance imo, try and focus on this new (hopefully) awesome story instead of clinging to teh past like a dirty Dalish pleb =P

Is this actually confirmed anywhere? Cassandra looking for Hawke in DA2 and them mentioning the Warden is missing aside, since it isn't said that "Hey, we need those two for the Inquisition." Last I knew the Inquisitor is recruited because of what happens at the summit and their glowy hand powers, not because Cass and Leli looked at him/her and was like "Eh, you'll do. We'd prefer Warden and Hawke, but you're a distant third."
Of course, if there's a dev post or something that proves I'm wrong, that's cool. The more you know... ![]()
Nah Cassandra was just an idiot and thought that Hawke could end the Mage-Templar war by having both sides lay down their arms because both sides would listen to Hawke....for some reason. Cass had been reading to many fairy tales and thought Hawke to be this handsome dashing hero that could ride in and save the day with his reasoning...Because he totally had an abundance of that! ![]()
and eventually haves Alistairs baby.
