Really, just my opinion.

 

The inquisitor is too powerful. Every noble, king and queen bows to his/her expertise, he has every army at his disposal, assassins and spies that rival the number of citizens in Denerim, and pretty much gains the good will of the entirety of Thedas. Who's going to stand up to him after all the Coryphy-fish bullshit? Did I mention he slayed 10 dragons as well? 11 If you count the wanna-be Archdemon? 

 

How (if future installments take place in the games canonical near-future) is the world supposed to fall apart for the torch to be passed on to a new protagonist? A new Blight? The Wardens are in his debt, and ofcourse it's their duty anyway so that won't be much of a threat. Should the inquisition be corrupted? Well it can't be if the previous inquisitor is still alive.  
 

Borderline, I am too powerful and I need to die for things to fall apart so we can have a new age of chaos in Dragon Age where the old folks are still alive... Although I am not against a game that takes place after everyone has died of old-age. 

 

I am actually sad I couldn't kill myself off in a heroic final stand and see my inquisition and party-members fall apart and move on in life like I did with Origins, it's not even an option(I think, if it is I'd like to know how). 

I guess I am just sick that way. 

 

Opinions?

In true Bioware tradition, the Inquisitor will vanish shortly after destroying Corypheus, and the Inquisition will fall to pieces. Just like the Greek Empire fell apart after Alexander's demise

The only thing I dont see the inquisition being able to stop on reputation alone would be a qunari invasion maybe

[The Loyal Nub]

The Inquisition will be subsumed into the Chantry by the new Divine. Most of it's military wing will become a new, reformed, order of Templars and others will be selected to form the new Seekers or version of that. It's Mages will be taken into new circles. The Inquisitor will morph into an official of the Chantry loyal to the Divine or they'll disappear as stated above.

[Hazegurl]

That's why my Mage Inquisitor was ruthless when need be. He knew some people would call for his head when this was over and he needed to show that all opposition to him would be met with a swift and ruthless take down. I don't see how BW could plausibly get rid of him. They'll probably pull another "he vanished" out of their rear ends but it'll never make sense.

[vertigomez]

I'm sure the Inquisition will become corrupt sooner or later... it's more likely to fall to itself than an outside organization, IMO.

I'd like to see a qunari invasion, though. Or see if Tevinter feels like making a power play.

[Lavaeolus]

I am a bit sad that there's no option to disband the Inquisition. I'm not judging on exactly how good an idea that is: it could leave a massive powergap, especially depending on your choices, though it'd certainly prevent the Inquisition from "using" the crisis in order to manipulate unrelated politics from then-on. But Giselle even said one of the fine things about the old Inquisition is that they just hung up their swords when they were no longer needed, and it seems odd that that line's in there when there's no option to follow through.

Reminds me of KOTOR 1...

My quizzy is expecting a Qunari invasion, after all, she let that dreadnaught sink.

[connors3605]

Tevinter could see a qunari invasion as their opportunity as well

[myahele]

I'd always thought there'd be a heroic sacrifice option by the end, seems fitting since who knows what overuse of that mark can do to the inq. Maybe in a DLC?

Most likely,with the Inquisition full filling its major duties, they will disband to go a head and do their own thing. While the inq. Will travel the world closing fade rifts

Wouldn't be a complete experience without saying at least once: "Damn it, Bioware/Obsidian!"

 

If I remember the NWN 2 ending correctly, your hero dies buried beneath rock... after a cave-in... IWD is a long way back for me, but I think your heroes disappear there too.

[Hazegurl]

I personally would love the Inquisition to turn into a more multinational military force. Not belonging to any one country but acts based on the needs of allied countries.

[Feybrad]

Imagine the Inquisition being allied with the Qunari... Ladies and Gentlemen, they are invincible.

 

Realistically seen, I do not think the Inquisition is too powerful, as their Power is concentrated in southern Thedas. While there certainly are Relations with most of the northern Nations, they do not have such a powerful Presence there.

 

So the next Region(s) to fall to Chaos would be in northern Thedas, where a new Hero could arise.

[Precursor Meta]

the inquisition is at the mercy of the ruler's of Thedas. They are only where they are and can do what they do because of that.

 

that's what Josephine says whenever you first go to the throne.

In NWN2 you actually survived the cave-in if you played the DLC, but none of your friends does... So yeah, that hurt.

That just means the Divine will be too powerful.

Honestly I think the inquisition will simply dissolve once the threat has passed and other powers get their bearings. That's not the most compelling way to go but logical enough.

Alternately they could get really bold and make the inquisition the new threat. Sadly sidesteps my thought about exploring how you keep an inquisition going in the absence of an obvious threat (imo, what act 2 should have been about, with you tring to convince people that corypheus is real while your detractors claim you're just trying to grab power)

Pretty much this. We've got a whole half a continent to play with where the Inquisition is a distant force with little in the way of real power.

 

Even when we come back down south - which I hope doesn't happen for another couple of games - it's not as if a plot can't happen under the nose of the inquisition. There are ways to write around this.

[errantknight]

People don't need to die to have events weaken their position--and we don't know that what will come next won't need an organization like that just to hold things together. The existence of a strong character/organization doesn't mean a walk in the park for the next protagonist, particularly since we'll be in a different part of the world.

[Red of Rivia]

Yeah, he needs to die

[myahele]

Its dragon age almost every protagonist from their games/novels end up dying: Maric,Fiona, Loghain, Celene, Gaspard, briala, those gray wardens in last flight, Hawke, Warden and hopefully Inquisitor

This bugged me, as did the voice of Not Bishop. I did like Gann though.

[LightningPoodle]

The Inquisitor will succeed where Corypheus failed. The Herald will sit on the Makers Throne!

The books are one thing, the games are another. The majority of characters only die if you choose to make it so--and assuming that appearances aren't deceiving, which they might very well be.

Not in my playthroughs ;D

 

The Inquisitor is powerful, yes. But his power comes to a great amount of connections and allies.

If whoever sits on the throne of Orlais dies or gets replaced, the Inquisition is weakened a lot. The Wardens may be allies but they always seemed a bit secluded to me.

Ferelden has good ties with the Inquisition but nothing unbreakable.

 

And as mentioned, in the absence of an imminent threat a lot of soldiers and other people who joined the Inquisition will leave to return to their families (that's even said in the end at some point). So it will lose some military power.

 

Additionally the Inquisitor doesn't need to die. You could frame him/her for something and derail his entire position by doing so, without him ever doing anything wrong.

He just needs to lose in 'the Game' once and all his power would be gone
