Wow. I've always maxed out those values. I've never seen that 0_o
Requirements to meet:
-Anders is a 100% rival and his Act 3 "Questioning Beliefs" quest was completed, i.e. he can be potentially persuaded to turn against the mages.
-Merrill's Act 3 Quest, "Merrill, Friend or Foe?" (100% friendship/rivalry) was not completed.
Following the trailer, The enemy of Theldas, the threat is universal. If we saw in the canon Biowarestory the Orlasian warden as I guest and Hawke, I am pretty sure that they don't come alone.
For me only one charachter will not appear because in the book she is death, another is unknown because he is supposed death in the last Flight, but I guess we find an answser about the suppose death of Nathaniel in the game.
For me what I saw in the enemy of Theldas as like in Marvel univers, The avengers, fantastic four and the x-men are in the same battle field to fight Galactus. It will be epic

I'm too much of a completionist to ever not complete a quest like that. That's why I've never seen it 
Out of the ones that haven't been confirmed in or out, I'd like to see Anders, Isabela, Carver and Fenris. Sigrun, Velanna and Nathaniel would be nice too.
And I'm disappointed Zevran is out.
Only if they are actually bringin something to the story.
As much as I enjoyed the Alistair cameo..it was just a way to bring back Alistair for two minutes.
But for example, I would like to see Isabela returning - it is not totally impossible since in the comic she travels with both Varric and Alistair.
So let's say the Inquisitor needs to travel in secret, Varric gets in Contact with an old friend and there we have Isabella, ready to smuggle you out of Val Royeaux.
A fun cameo that actually brings something to the plot.
And let's say that Isabela didn't return with the Tome of Koslun or if you let the Arishok have her then this route is not possible and you have to leave by horse or something...
If they have storylines like this and not just a two minute cameo then I would like to see:
Isabela, Oghren, Loghain (if still alive), Nathaniel and Bethany/Carver.
Personally given apparently my hawke is going to be back, then i'd like to see his Isabela too.

I can think of a very strong reason for Merrill to show up. The Eluvians. She's our only recognized expert, and there have been numerous hints they'll be important. Masked Empire notes that it is very, very hard for humans to use Eluvians, even if they have the password. They can force their way through, but it takes time and effort. Far easier for elves. So while Morrigan can use them with difficulty and risk every human-snaring trap along the way, Merrill could just prance through them.
Of course, they might just decide Morrigan's enough of an expert, and maybe Merrill was just there to remind us that the mirrors exist, but I could see her coming back as an Eluvian expert.
Nathaniel, Sebastion and my personal favorite Loghain Mac Tir. The last one is a must.
Didn't Cameron Lee say that every DAO party member will return except Zevran (and Wynne as well of course)?
I will be mad at BW if Bethany doesn't show up.
Admit it. You just want to bang her in DA:I since you couldn't in DA2 because she was your sister.
So do I.
While it could be interesting to see Bethany/Carver, their possible death coupled with multiple possible physical appearance differences seems to make it unlikely.
Shale, Zevran and the Dog will not be appear in the game
But what about Shayle with a Y?
Merrill can be killed. The only ones who's alive no matter what, are: Varric, Aveline, Isabela and Sebastian, though 3 of them, except for Varric, could leave Hawke for one reason or another. You can theoretically end up with just 2 companions - Varric+Aveline or Varric+Merrill, depending on the side.
So that immoral, selfish, thieving and rotten Isabella survives nomatter what? Even if her selfishness caused countless death, murder, tragedy and despair for several years in Kirkwall? And if you give her to the Arishok she escapes justice again?
That concludes it - Isabella has the thickest plot armor in the dragon age universe. Id compare Isabella to Loghain but even Loghain could die, and atleast Loghain had good reasoning for what he did. Better than Isabella atleast
Y'know, I've been noticing how much the gameplay looks like a melee-medieval version of Mass Effect 3. You have everything from a war assets map to armoured health bars to weapon customization. The context is Mass Effect 3 as well - you play a commander of a military force after the initial onslaught has left everything in a state of chaos.
Not surprising, since Patrick Weekes and at least one other writer have come in from the Mass Effect 3 team.
That gets me wondering if the old companions will work like Mass Effect 3 as well. There, everyone who survives has a personal mini-quest that fits in with their background. If you go on it, you get to see them again, and after they might appear for a visit at the hub town, and they get added to your "war assets" (the equivalent of power or perks here).
You can also invite them to the shore leave party, where characters who never met in all three games can have conversations.
Maybe they'll do something like that here...?

tbh, I'd think that Leliana has thicker plot armor. You can 'kill' Leliana in the Gauntlet after defiling the Ashes, but she comes back in DA2 like, "lolno. You can't kill me!"
Plus, I wouldn't consider Isabela immoral. More like amoral, imo. Also, she doesn't kill people just because, and she did free those people who were going to be made into slaves. She values freedom of choice overall, but she doesn't really think about the consequences of her actions. The same can be said about maybe DA and ME characters, tbh.
Honestly, I view Isabela as being similar to Jack in ME2 and ME3. Her outlook on life has been shaped by her past in a... unique way, causing her to act a certain way in response. While Jack prefers to have her 'I hate everyone' attitude, Isabela has move of a 'anything goes' attitude. They're both similar in the way that they tend to distance themselves from others emotionally, having few 'true' friends (even though Isabela is more carefree) that really know them, if any (which would probably only be Shep in Jack's case). Their romances are similar in the way that they've both been burned in love before, so they're both hesitant to let themselves truly get close to anyone emotionally.
Anyway, I'm getting off track. I was trying to say that you should take Isabela's backstory into account when judging her character. People's actions are often influenced by their past, Isabela is no different.
