Seriously? Corypheus again?
I mean, It's nice to see BW trying to tie in the story of DA:O and DA2, but I feel they got lazy here.
We saw him battling Hawke in Legacy dlc. We saw him die. The way they introduced him as elder one seems kind of a poor excuse
Pay attention to your warden helper during the legacy dlc after you "Beat" Cory its even on youtube to save you playing it again.
It's not that they got lazy, it's that it was probably a mistake to have revealed him in DA2 first, and especially since you could fight him and win (yes I know that you don't kill him and that it's pretty obvious that something's not right after but you still win the fight). His reveal felt really lackluster that way, especially since the 'Elder one' is built up to be this big thing so when you actually see Corypheus and not someone new and exciting it's just...oh.
I swear if i hear dumat one more time XD
DUMAT
Post up, ******, post up! Come at me, bro!
He should have awoken Dumat and been the lacky instead of the main bad guy becuase he did not feel threatening.
Dumat is either dead or in some mortal being (depending on wheter Andraste was in fact an OGB)
I dunno, I mean it didn't hit me as a HUGE CRAZY REVEAL when I saw Corypheus, but at the same time I was kinda excited and pleased I'd been correct in suspecting my Warden helper in DA2.
Indeed, if anything, I'm somewhat pleased they did make him the figurehead bad guy here who may or may not have been used by someone else...
Cause despite him possibly just being used, he still was set up as one of the most powerful figures in Thedasian history as one of the magisters who entered the Black City, so it feels more right to me that it would take an entire game to defeat him, rather than just some DLC (cause let's be real, why on earth would Hawke be that much stronger than the wardens? If Hawke could've defeated Cory permanently, you'd think at least one warden in the past might've as well)

killa you legitDUMAT

You too, my dude.
thank you i aim to please... and make jokes
I just thought it was not a great idea bringing a guy who was from a DLC of a game that was not well received by many fans.
Mixed feelings:
It was obvious to me we would see him again.
I think he was fine as the Big Bad for DA I, at least in theory, but I really wanted him to be a lieutenant. Maybe even for the big bad for DA 4. Either way works, but I wonder.
Even as the Big Bad in Inquisition it seems he had wasted potential. Again, fine, and I do not think I dislike it as most people, but could have been a lot better. In Legacy he was so compelling and such a lore bomb, the accent, the confusion, and the sense of something terrible waking up. It would have been a great opprotunity to examine two of the more fascinating aspects of DA lore, to me. But...didn't really happen.
It could have been a great examination of faith and conflicts between religions, and they touched on it. But could have really gone into it much more in depth, I feel.

They might still be able to salvage some of what you're saying. If indeed, he was something of a figurehead for a greater power/being used (which is my suspicion given the after credits reveal), then that sort of implies that whatever is using him is even more powerful - more powerful than a mortal who encroached upon the Black City. I do think the implications of that could allow for some more examinations in the conflicts of the various religions between all the races.
I never knew him or played DA2 base game or DLC. His introduction in haven was great, but after that it was just downhill from there.
I hear whispers on the forum that he was a better villain in the DA2 Dlc. Is this true?
Better villain? I didn't think so, but he had a much better boss fight. He made you earn your victory, unlike in DA:I where you play "Tag" with him.
We didn't see him die - if you actually pay attention, it's kind of clear that he didn't die and that he did, in fact, jump bodies at the end of Legacy. I absolutely remembered the look on the surviving Warden's face at the end of Legacy, and I remember my reaction being something like "uh-oh..." So, I wasn't particularly surprised that he came back because it's obvious that they had something planned. It's not lazy or poor writing, etc. if that's what you're implying.

Well it wouldn't be the first time she's been wrong, but Morrigan does say if you do the Dark Ritual you will be the first ever Grey Warden to kill the Archdemon and live.
What would help to confirm this is if we knew who it was to had slain Dumat in the Silent Plains and if they has a tomb at Weisshaupt. Alistair claims those that have slain the previous Archdemons have tombs there but Idk if he says anything specific "Last 4" or w/e as to numbers.
