I know she ought to, but I can never get her to. I've tried everything, and she never does.

I had suspected that Hawke might be playable through a flashback sequence, but in light of the companions trailer, I'm thinking that Hawke will take charge of the party during a section of the game in which the Inquisitor has been kidnapped or is otherwise incapacitated. As long as I control Hawke in that period, I'm very happy

How can so many people hate Hawke? I seriously don't understand it. 

[Durhon]

I want Hawke to play a role in the game but I really don't want to play as him. His story ended with Dragon Age 2 and I'd prefer Inquisition to be the Inquisitor's story through and through.

I don't hate Hawke. I like her in DA2, and am content that she'll reappear for a quest in DAI as an NPC.

[Revan Reborn]

My point is it is not 'Your Hawke' as several specializations are not in DAI, such as Beserker or Blood Mage. 

 

Also Hawke has not been confirmed as playable, that is just speculation at the moment. 

The question you should ask yourself is would the majority want to play as their DA2 Hawke anyways? I personally thought the combat and overall specializations were weak in DA2 compared to DAO. DAI is going more along the lines of DAO, so I'm perfectly fine with my Hawke being tweaked and improved for the better.

 

We don't need an official confirmation to connect the dots. BioWare has stated we will be able to customize Hawke's appearance in-game with the CC. BioWare has confirmed Hawke will play a significant role in DAI. DA2 really was part one of DAI as it begins the formation of the Inquisition and Hawke's role has been established several times to be incredibly important. We have also seen significant footage of Hawke fighting alongside companions with no Inquisitor in sight.

 

Do you really believe Hawke will not be playable? Honestly, the facts are more in support of this being the case rather than Hawke just being a supporting character with occasional cameos. Believe the contrary if you'd like.

Bah destroying the mirror is the best thing Merrill can do with it. Nothing wrong with that choice.

But I thought she only destroys the mirror, if you are on the rival path or? And a whole game of being rude to her would feel too much like kicking a puppy, for me only possible in the keep.

 

But regarding the (longer then just a cameo) return of Hawke. I will be glad to see her back, because as other people already stated, to me at least, she always felt more real then my wardens (though their story was a bit more epic).

I disagree. On the contrary, DA2 set up Hawke's story suggesting his role in all of this was only beginning. Varric's retelling of Hawke's origins were nothing more than background to understand his future significance. Do you remember the final moments of the game when Cassandra and Leliana were conversing about how the Warden-Commander and Hawke were the only two individuals who could likely bring an end to the Mage-Templar War?

 

It had begun in DA2 and it is still progressing in DAI. Hawke's presence is more necessary now than it ever was before. As far as the Inquisitor is concerned, his purpose is to close the Breach and defeat the Elder One. They have two entirely different tasks ahead of them. That, however, does not mean they cannot work together towards a common outcome for both.

 I can see your point. I should of worded my statement better, I meant that my control over Hawke's story is over. I feel like that playing as two main characters is just weird and will just break the flow of being the Inquisitor. I am all for Hawke playing a huge role in ending the Mage and Templar war, but I really don't want him to be playable. That is just me however.

Fair enough. I can definitely see a concern to some extent of two leading characters somewhat competing in the same experience. That being understood, DAI is clearly more focused around the Inquisitor's story. I believe we will be able to play as Hawke for a certain amount of time, but that's more so for continuity purposes and to tie off loose ends. I don't believe you'll need to worry about Hawke trying to kick the Inquisitor out of the way for the spot light. Hawke's presence will really be there more as a nod to the fan base and to properly do justice to his character that he did not receive in DA2.

Where the hell have you guys picked up a notion, that Hawke will be playable? 

For example Mage Hawke specialization doesn't exist in DA:I at all. How would that be implemented?

For what reason would Hawke be playable (as a PC or party member)? 

 

I mean, speculation is fine and all, but some of you speak about it, like it has been confirmed.

I love Hawke, and can't wait to see her again. But what I REALLY can't wait for is the possible reunion with Varric.

Many of us have come to this conclusion based on various statements BioWare has made over the months about Hawke as well as the recent companion video BioWare released. It takes quite a bit of effort, but you will find Hawke appears in the footage a lot and every scene is him fighting with various companions and no Inquisitor in sight. This suggests that for a portion of the game, the Inquisitor will be out of play and we will take over as Hawke.

 

The base classes still exist. There are two ways BioWare could address this. Either incorporate Hawke's characteristics based on the DAI system, or make his own unique specialization for each class. We'll only be playing as him temporarily, so either approach would work.

It was less that I hated Hawke, and more that I hated DA: 2  Also - this is my OPINION.  Therefore, it is not wrong - but it is also not meant to be anyone elses opinion.

 

I perceive Hawke as a victim of circumstance - and I don't connect with being a victim at all. 

 

- I felt like Act 3 I should have been playing Anders. 

 

- I felt like even if Anders is going to be the main protagonist of Act 3 - I didn't even get a chance to respond to his actions aside from have an argument with him.  "I" would not sit around debating what he did - "I" would go do something to try to help.  But DA:2 tells me that Hawke is more interested in drama with Anders.

 

- My absolute most hated thing - was having to suffer through Act 3 while helping Anders build a dirty bomb.  The game forced me into a role of an accomplice to a terrorist which I actually find to be both enraging and insulting. 

 

-----

 

I am not sure if kicking Anders out of my group will help - or if I'll still be forced to do these things in Act 3.  Note:  Feel free to tell me - I'd like to know as the game has already sorely disappointed me.

 

But if it just happens AFTER I force him away... I'll at least be happy that I had no way of knowing what he was doing.

THAT being said... I am constructing a Hawke I can digest for my Main Inquisitor playthrough. 

 

I have basically designed my character around how the story plays out though - because if I played a character I wanted to (like I did originally) I will only feel rage again.

[Gothfather]

..Except for all the mass of people who don't.

lol Thats just the margin of error of the scientific proof.

[Vearsin]

I don't hate Hawke, and I don't really have a problem with he/she being in inquisition. Still, this seems like another step toward sweeping the Warden under the carpet.  

[SomeoneStoleMyName]

How can so many people hate Hawke? I seriously don't understand it. 

I dont hate hawke, I want to romance her!

My romance hopes for DA:I were:

1) Sister Petrice
2) Leliana
3) Our Hawke

Got none of them

[bluebullets]

"hawke fan" what is that? Is it like an unicorn? Does it exist?

[Muspade]

"hawke fan" what is that? Is it like an unicorn? Does it exist?

Not being fan of myself Is quite hard. I'd fan myself so hard.

[Salaya]

I hope there is a way to avoid this... I don't like Hawke and I wished for the developers to forget the existence of DA2.

 

And of course, we will be lucky if the Warden appears at all. Because, well, we need people to forget Dragon Age Origins and feel the awesomeness of Dragon Effect 2 and Diablo Age Inquisition, the Skyrim Connection.

[Muspade]

we will be lucky if the Warden appears at all. 

He won't. Spoilers?

That was honestly the entire point. Anders did something absolutely unforgivable, no matter whether it was for the greater good or not. He also betrayed Hawke's trust in the process, fully understanding that Hawke would not have agreed to such a heinous act knowingly. That's what makes it so shocking and emotionally-impactful. The reason you are angry is because BioWare succeeded in making you care about what was happening. You didn't have to like it, and certainly I'm sure very few appreciated Anders killing hundreds to begin the Mage Rebellion.

 

This was also the reasoning for why I chose not to kill Anders. His death would not have done anything, other than add to the death toll. While his methods were clearly erroneous and flawed in nature, he did have the effective response he was looking for. He was willing to do what no one else would ever contemplate, and that's what made the scene so incredibly jaw-dropping. Many view BioWare as just trolling them and forcing them into a situation they didn't like. I see it as BioWare taking storytelling to a whole new level and creating a situation we never even saw coming. That was a true moral dilemma, making you wrestle with yourself about what to do next. There was no easy solution, as either way you had to live with the consequences.

 

Pure brilliance.

Oh, I didnt knew that. I read a tweet about the issue being difficult and all, but not a confirmation. Is this official, then?

It's been confirmed sometime ago. He will be heavily referenced and that's all.

Maybe next game/DLC/Expansion.

I see... thank you.

 

Well, maybe. But I somewhat doubt it. We'll see.
