Ok, they make parts of this needlessly confusing(though hopefully that is what this beta is for). I get save game isn't loaded but Achievements are. Why load a hero if there isn't going to be any link between any of it at all?
So if they are not it would be nice to have some indication on finding a choice you did make. Still have an Icon and indicate which achievement could show you what choice you made. As well since some things didn't have an achievement a better hint than the very basic plot point would be nice. For instance if having an item or the lack of that item might tell you what choice you made that need to be a part of the hint. At this rate it is going to take a full Wiki for some of us to figure out how we chose.
It is kind of confusing. Essentially the Keep is serving more than one purpose and I believe it would have been a good idea to decouple the various parts so that people understand what each one is for. Putting everything into the Keep will confuse a lot of people, I'm sure. What we have is this:
The Tapestry - that's there to enable you to recreate your main game decisions from DA:O and DA2. Eventually it may do more, but for now that's probably its only real function. Getting this as right as you can is probably the only part of the Keep that's important to DA:I right now.
Syncing achievements - this is supposed to bring forward the Achievements you earned playing DA:O and DA2. Again, there may be bigger plans for this in the future but, at the moment, it just creates an online record of what you already have on your XBox, PS or PC. It does not affect DA:I in any way.
Syncing characters from DA:O - this may affect DA:I in some way but, from what we've been told so far, not in any major way. The Warden from DA:O does not appear in DA:I although he/she will be mentioned. We believe you may therefore see his/her name in a Codex or something, but syncing probably won't do anything more than that.
Syncing characters from DA2 - we believe the Champion from DA2 will appear in DA:I. BW have said, however, that if he/she does appear, we will be given something like a Character Creator tool so that we can make them look like our own hero. Again, therefore, syncing will have no real effect on DA:I.
I hope that helps to clarify things.
