Good. It'll take roughly that long.

I can't imagine things like "Did you give the Ostagar prisioner food" (which is i the Keep, 100% serious) will play a role in Inquisition.
They could just be there for window dressing.

Well if you remember Mass Effect 2, there was a lot of questioning about what sort of effects certain decisions might have. One of the decisions which had an affect was whether or not you let the Muslim restauranteur have his wife's body back. Some people had extremely difficult time believing this would be play a role in the game while others believed it would lead to something big like a bonus in the game for the research done on our corpse.
Instead, it was a letter from the dude thanking Shepard.
Maybe the Ostagar prisoner is alive because of it, having had enough food in his belly to run away from the Darkspawn.
The choice for the Keep to request clarification on fairly minor outcomes allows some to be relevant in DAI or in the future.
If only the minor choices that mattered were asked for, that would be a plot give-away.
So asking for pretty much everything obscures which plot points are actually relevant.

True, on the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a bunch of NPCs who show up just to give the Inquisitor's player a sense of the world's evolution. If there's just as much as ME3 that's a lot.

I think there was a BioWare comment that past characters wouldn't simply show up to wave.
There would need to be a plot purpose for them to be there.
(Unless likely to be seen in a specific revisited location.)
What you did on side quests may be more relevant to establish the character of your Warden. After all many of the main quests could be argued either way, for example choosing Harrowmount or Bhelen; each has their positive and negative aspects so choosing one over the other does not necessarily define what sort of person your Warden is. However, if there are a number of side quests where your response was fairly consistent with a certain type of character, then may be it would flag up your Warden as such. For example, my male human noble took his lead from that sex manual he was reading at the beginning and bedded, kissed, flirted with just about everyone he encountered, male or female, married Anora and kept Zevran as his lover - I'm thinking he might have a reputation pretty much in line with that of Garahel.
Didnt the prisoner die?
I found his corpse in the Ostagar DLC.

You bring up a good point. Hawke's character could be defined by the personality choices he made, but for the Warden, none of that was applied. That might help pick such things.
I watched the video on YouTube this morning. Cleared up some ?'s for me. Geez, another 6 weeks to go. Patiently waiting to see character creator now.
I'd be more worried about third choices. Like having Amaranthine and the Keep saved in DA:A.

This was a real ending scenario through legitimate gameplay, not a bug exploit, so there is no reason the Keep should not account for it.
There should really be more emphasis on the major choices. Certain side quests should really be ignored because they are not as important as the major/story plot choices.
The Keep supposedly has "over 300 choices" but the recent demo said that "over 200" import into DAI. The keep is built to have ramifications beyond this game alone.
Or you could just set one character and play the game and set the other 11 characters one by one as soon as you actually decide you want to play as them. Also, you can only set 5 world states currently, so the other 6 can't even be set until after you have actually used a world state for a new game.I also remember reading that you almost certainly can't just directly import data from the games themselves. Now I gotta look up exactly what I did for every side quest on all twelve of the characters I've beaten the game with. It's going to be an entire day before I can even play Inquisition after I get it now.

And even if you want to set the current maximum of 5 world states you can likely do this about a month before release, so you won't be losing a day playing Inquisition at release.
I have to pick just five? How the hell do I even do that?
I'm a little irritated the "Free Fereldan's Circle" and the Dalish Boon aren't mentioned.

Because DA2 reveals that Alistair, and/or Anora, didn't have the power to keep the Circle free and the Dalish eventually left because it wasn't going to work out. Like how giving the City Elves more rights didn't work out.
Fear of Mages and Fear/Racism of the Dalish doesn't suddenly vanish because a King/Queen says so.
Damnit I thought my Warden earned equal rights for the few remaining City Elves of Denerim with Shianni as their leader. Last time I trust the word of a Shemlen.

I think whichever monarch did the talking honestly meant to give you what you were promised. Only there's not much that a mere monarch can do to change the way things are in such a dramatic way.
