Hey all, been a DA player since Origins, have a few questions about rifts and the Fade.

 

First of all, what's so special about the rifts in DA:I? I mean...didn't we have fade/veil rifts in DA:Awakening or Witch Hunt?

 

The rifts in Awakening would be closed by the warden's weapons after Justice enchanted them, which wasn't a hard bit for him I guess, whereas in Inquisition the Inquisitor is regarded as a special person because of his ability to close the rifts with his hand...couldn't they just summon a spirit and close them with their weapons again?

 

Second question: What's so special about physically entering the Fade? Why is the Elder One trying to do it? Also, why nothing happens when the Inquisitor and his party physically enter the Fade?

 

 

Thank you all!

Rift: its implied that they are more volitile than tears and since the breach is a massive tear and causes rift its a big deal.

Entering the fade: its alledgly tge seat of the maker and if x person enters they ascend to godhood

Physically entering the Fade is thought to be impossible, or at least entering and surviving -- even Solas, who's long dreamed of it, did not actually expect us to ever wake up after falling out of the Fade in the intro sequence. I guess the fact that it's supposedly impossible made it appealing to Corypheus and his buddies. Psychology. What's difficult "must" be rewarding. If you see a heavily locked door, you probably expect something important and valuable to be behind it, instead of an empty room, and if you're the selfish, power-grabbing sort it makes you wonder if you could break in and claim what's inside ...

 

Going by a banter collection video I've seen, Dorian and Solas can end up speculating why they're not dead, with Dorian suggesting that the Anchor is what's keeping everyone alive, and Solas agreeing. The Inquisitor is the first in and the last out, so it makes sense, though it does raise more questions. Does the Anchor protect everyone in a certain radius or can it tell friend from foe based on our subconscious desire to protect our friends? Would someone die if they fall too far behind, or if the Inquisitor leaves the Fade without them?

Hey! Thank you for your replies!

 

I thought of the godhood thingie with the fade, but wouldn't someone become a god only if they entered the golden (now black) city? Also...would the maker be physically inside the golden city on his seat? Does that seat still exist after cory and the others defiled the golden city? If it does, why didn't they become gods the first time they entered? Also why doesn't the Inquisitor and his allies get anything special after physically entering the Fade?

 

As for the rift/tear thing, @ragong_monkey you're right, but still it seems too easy and normal in awakening whereas it is considered crazily unique in Inquisition...seemed odd.
