1) I said in Mass Effect 2, so quoting Mass Effect 3 at me is a different issue.

2) That's all epilogue and probably won't matter in any future Mass Effect game, especially with how the ending was slapped together..

3) The difference between Wrex and Wreave was discussed, but in what way was it actually reflected, except maybe a different epilogue slide?

 

1. Even in Mass Effect 2, you could tell the difference between Wrex and Wreav, and Wreav fully explained who he was in relation to Wrex.

2. The Extended Cut DLC shouldn't have been needed, but it was.  So, unless you are one of the players who refused to ever touch the game again, a lot more happens with them story wise, and will matter in future ME games very much I think.

3. If you are still talking ME2 only, then it wasn't.  But, we cant throw ME3 out any more than a discussion about what matters in DA2 will be able to throw out DAI.    The difference between siding with the Mages and siding with the Templars is mostly just an epilogue slide at this point. Hawke sided with the Templars. Hawke sided with the mages.  Nothing is really different as of the ending of DA2 between those two situations.  Hawke still disappeared, Leliana and Cassandra are still trying to locate the Warden and Hawke. It won't be until DAI that we see the results reflected.  It's the same way with Wrex and Wreav.  Until ME4 comes out and we are looking at our first Krogan Councilor in Wrex (I totally can see Wrex on the Council... under him the Krogan would be a force to rival the Turians, yet he would make them fight for the good of the galaxy, and that would greatly impress the council), or fighting off the 2nd Krogan Rebellions under the Krogan Warlord Wreav (under him the Krogan also will be a force to rival the Turians, but alas he's dangerously unstable and insane, moreso even that most Krogans IMO, so with him as leader... we're all dead.), we aren't going to see those reflected no.   Will all of that be completely ignored in ME4? That depends.  Until we see, the only question that can be answered is are you a "glass half full" or a "glass half empty" type of person?  I am glass half full, and hope that Bioware learned from their mistakes with ME3, but also with their mistakes in DAO/DAA and their mistakes in DA2, and DAI, ME4, all future games will be better.  If however I was a glass half empty person, I'd just jump on the "Biofail" bandwagon and wouldn't have preordered DAI or buy it ever.  But again, I'm a glass half full person.

 

The main problem with the epilogue slides in DAO/DAA is simple, there were just too many variables.  Put simply, Bioware stretched themselves too thin.  Even if all that data ended up in the save files.  Even if there were no bugged save files.  There still were way too many variables, DA2 is what we would be anticipating today if they'd actually taken the time to stick with ALL the epilogue slides from DAO/DAA.

And a logical error: I always kill Wynne at the Broken Circle(either right after meeting her or after agreeing to Cullen's suggestion), and I always side the mages afterwards and save Irwing. But the Keep wouldn't allow me to make this choice, and that's weird.

 

Yeah, that's a known bug, at least we all think it's a bug, Bioware hasn't said yet if they know and are going to fix it.  For all we know at this time, they may want it to be that way, but I really hope not because as you said above, that's totally possible in the game, the only scenario that should be impossible is agreeing with Cullen and not killing Wynne (because that was only possible if you used a bug to remove her from your party before talking to Cullen)

They do know, likely everyone has used the feedback button for it. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next update

From What I have been reading it looks like this is still being worked on, however I would like to know if the syncing tool not reflecting all of your dlc, achievements, and game content (such as leliana's song, defeating duke prosper, and most of the awakening game) during the initial and subsequent syncs is still an issue for most people? 

 

I have tried multiple times to get that data to load during re-sync trials and after verifying all the legacy data upload permissions and ea/bioware server passwords are correct it only seems to recognize  for instance the dlc from the old facebook game and my blood dragon armor. Nothing else lights up during the syncing process and my sync percentage for say origins is only at about 69% when I know that I poured hundreds of hours to get all those achievements and accomplishments for this very moment.

 

If there is something I am not seeing or doing here that would affect this portion of the tapestry please let me know because I am eager to get that meter up to 100%. Also, I am pulling the data from the xbox console versions if that matters.

If you are pulling it from a 360, then none of the DLC will pop as that wasn't stored on BSN (they are trying to fix/work around that though). Also some trophies will not show up as some trophies are PC exclusive. So what you should do is check to see if there are any DAO achievements you lack in the Keep which you do have on your system, as a large number of them you probably won't have.

If any rewards aren't showing up, no idea as those should all work.

Thanks for the tip but wouldn't dlc like return to ostagar lelianas song and darkspawn chronicles be uploaded to the dragon age servers where they get the data from? Also I find it hard to stomach that they couldn't just do what true achievements did and get the achievement data directly from your microsoft/xbox profile... they could probably do the same thing for playstation and pc as well.

 

In any case Its just a little frustrating to see those boxes light up during sync and stop at the registered game content  from the legacy bsn and not include the rest. Especially since they put the tiles in there, they look like they can light up, and I know I have them or have completed the challenges for them. 

 

Perhaps there is a bug or something is being worked on in relation to this "issue" since we are still in beta test. Maybe it will be fixed by the end of the open beta. I can only hope so.

1) I never said Wrex and Wreave weren't different, I said it didn't affect anything. Urdnot is still in control and you still do the same quests.

2) (Deleted comment on ME3 endings to not ignite stupid comments) Considering Shepard's story is over, I would be amazed if any new Mass Effect game had a save import. On the other hand, I suppose we could see a "Mass Effect Nexus" just like the Keep. I don't expect most of what you did in Mass Effect 1-3 to matter in the next game, or they will have canon choices made.

3) I didn't throw ME3 out, but I was discussing ME2. But even in ME3, the only difference IN THAT GAME is their personality and that Wreav can be tricked if you sabotage the genophage cure. The Templar vs Mage decision having little to no difference in Dragon Age 2 was a weakness, not a strength. By contrast, with Wrex and Wreav we at least have an idea of what the differences will lead to, even if it never shows up in a game.

Templars vs mages was going to be expanded on. After all it was only near the end that the war starts

Late to the party as always, but though they said there wouldn't be an option in the Keep to indicate Alistair's status, there kind of already is (not Goldanna) but only if Loghain was killed by Alistair.

 

When you look at the "what happened to Loghain" tile under companions, there are two separate tiles for Alistair killing him.  One is "Alistair executed Loghain" and one is "Alistai killed Loghain in a duel."  Why?  Because hardened Alistair will kill Loghain at the end of the duel without any input from the Warden, while hardened Alistair will wait on the Warden's word before performing the execution.

 

This means that - counter-intuitively - the nice guy Alistair is the one holding Loghain's head, while cruel, cynical Alistair is the one clashing swords with him.

 

The Keep even illustrates this visually.  Look at their armours: nice-guy Alistair is wearing shiny gold Armour in these tiles, while hardened Alistair is wear black Armour that looks like he fused with the Venom symbiote from Spider-Man :D

 

Therefore, if the keep ever needs to know this, it potentially has the evidence there.

So I was just playing around with one of my world states and I swapped my mage!Hawke with with a default warrior!Hawke; naturally, the surviving sibling was swapped from Carver to Bethany. When going to alter Bethany's status, I thought "No, I actually think Carver better suits this world state" and swapped Carver's status to Grey Warden. I assumed this would demand an alternation of my Hawke to a mage!Hawke... but it didn't. I now have a warrior!Hawke with a living Grey Warden Carver.

 

That's... not supposed to happen, right?

 

EDIT: Just went back to mage!Hawke, did the same experiment with Bethany... and YEP! Managed to swap siblings without affecting my own class.

Often times it will switch choices without the autosolver appearing if the tile isn't greyed out yet so that might have happened in your case?

Just wanted to post in here (I think this is where this goes) and it doesn't seem like a common question and not in a FAQ that I saw.

 

When you log in to the Keep you see your user name, email address and when you registered your account. There is also an avatar - I have what looks to be a default blue silhouette with a questionmark on it.

 

Is there a way to change this avatar to somehting custom at the moment?

 

thank-you :)

To change your avatar go to origin.com, log in, then click on the 'My Account' tab. In the 'About Me' section you can customize your avatar (they have an avatar gallery, but you can also upload something from your computer).

Does anyone else finds it weird that we have a DLC tile for a soundtrack (which is not a DLC mind you) yet we do not have one for Awakening? I mean, it IS a DLC.

It is weird, but I understand why. If you look at your registered game content on BSN, Awakening is not included (because you register it as a game) but the soundtrack is included in the registered content list. The DLC and Rewards sections for the Keep are all taken from the BSN registered game content section.

From that point, it makes sense, I would still appreciate if they put a little bit more thought into the whole Career tab.

 

You have things like Blood Dragon Armor or Collector Edition Items "How to find in game" descriptions. They say that these items will be automatically put in your inventory. Which is not true.

 

Or the Keep will happily tell you that you own Bulwark of the True King for Xbox 360 / PS3 while this item is only available on PC (same goes for Beregars Bow or Pear of the A... whatever). 

 

Or that you can buy the Signature Edition Items on Xbox Marketplace / Origin. Again, not true.

 

Now I reported all of this via the feedback button. Hopefully, they'll fix this. But it's still disappointing to see that I even have to report these things in the first place. I would kinda expect them to at least know what they are selling.

I suspect we're going to have to accept that the devs probably have two piles of issues at the moment:

 

Pile #1 which contains all the things that affect DA:I and therefore need to be addressed as a matter of urgency, so that they're done before launch on 18th/21st November; and

Pile #2 which contains all the other things that they want to look at but which, because they don't affect DA:I, can be left until after launch date.

after their holidays as well. With Launch 12 days away and Christmas is only 40

Hey guys and gals.. If I registered only ps3 versions of both DA games should I be getting PC achievements like the arrow of slaying achievement and such?
