I have already said this and i will repeat it again.Trusting a liar with a being that is capable of immense destruction,a being that is highly susceptible to the corruption,without knowing for certain what are Flemeth plans,without knowing at the time if the very untainted soul was still capable to emit the song, or if the darkspawns would have find the child somehow ,after all the blood that the ferelden people have paid,when you can kill the Old god and survive the same,is selfish.The only naive folks are the one who keep continue to babble that the DR was not selfish ,like you claim.For all of yours babble about responsibility(when i talked about Wynne,int the other topic) you're using double standards for your Warden,with the DR you avoid your responsability as a Warden which is KILL THE OLD GOD URTHEMIEL ,not just the carcass body that is the AD.The DR is selfish, no one have a problem to claim this even who decided to take that path,yes Anti-hero in this specific case for my standards bye.
Pretty much most of this is just your bias toward morrigan. ![]()
In first place she didn't lie about anything when it comes to ritual , second there is nothing about being highly susceptible to the corruption ,third flemeth didn't have child only morrigan had ,fourth it didn't again you didn't revive old god only transfered its soul to the child so again there is no old god for darkspawn to taint....Pretty much all things you have pointed were demolished in dai save for flemeth capturing it ,what doesn't matter because again you don't give it to the flemeth only morrigan.
Again DR isn't selifish unless you make your motives selfish.

You failed hard here ,I suggests to read what i have wrote in about wynne thread.In another thread i was talking about wynne talking about responsibility all the time when she herself did throw away responsibility more than once i never said i was responsible.
Also no, your responsibility is to stop blight what you do regardless.

Why does everyone assume that you actually want to fulfill your responsability as a warden? You are essentially forced into being a Warden against your will in practically all the origins. For instance, why would a Dalish Warden who only became one because they became tainted by so happy to have their soul annihilated? Not everyone plays a Warden who actually wanted to be a Warden.

We were more talking about grey wardens responsibilities in that matter rather than about HoF having to care about them.
There are many motives that can drive HoF.

Elven powers should belong to elves.
Given what we learned about ancient Elvhenan, "Elven powers should belong to elves." is starting to sound like "Dixie's resources should belong to planters' heirs"
Trusting a liar
An interesting point about Morrigan is that she's actually rather honest. Sure, she's not half as knowledgeable about ancient lore as she claims, but that comes from the Dunning–Kruger effect, not duplicity. She genuinely believes that her mother wants to possess her, genuinely believes that there is value in preserving ancient magic, and if she warmed up to the Warden, genuinely wants her lover or good friend to survive the Blight.
That doesn't mean she's right: if anything, Inquisition clearly shows that she's biting way more than she can chew, but all things being considered, she's rather sincere and straightforward about her goals.

She lies by omission when it's convenient for her to do so, which is actually what good liars do. Whether she regrets it or it's the same to her as long as she achieves her goals, it very much depends on how much you like the character.

This! Komandor read this! the voice of reason,this is exactly of what i was talking about.
You're mission as a GW is to kill the old god,if you don't want to it's fine,but not tell to me that you have taken your responsibility as a GW,because you're just kidding yourself,this is the voice of reason..

She lie during FLemeth quest when the Warden ask to her of why she was sent,it was not even a lies by omission just a pure lie.

Again no it isn't ,your job as grey warden is to stop blight and fight darkspawn.Killing old god isn't grey warden job ,in first place grey wardens never killed an old god.
Second, from what i see he was talking about HoF that doesn't care about grey wardens what is irrelevant here because it is up to player and whether your warden hates grey wardens or love them they can still take DR with different motives in mind. .

What?!
Zazikale old god of chaos
Toth old god of fire
Andhoral old god of chains
are pretty much dead killed by the GW (soul included)
in the default Mhariel killed this one as well.
They have killed an archdemon not an old god as you or another warden do regardless of your choice.

Nope,they used their soul to destroy the one of the old god that was inside of the AD,they killed the old gods.
with the DR of DAO you kill the AD,with the other 3 endings you kill Urthemiel as well,is pretty simple.

Again they have killed an archdemon, not an old god what they fought was an archdemon not old god anymore.

Actually you're just arguing about technicalities,the fact that they killed an Old god in the form of an Archdemon does not disqualify the fact that they killed the old god as well with the AD,which is something that cannot happen with the DR in DAO,that is the difference between them,one is meant to kill the AD(the DR) the other to kill the AD and the Old god(US),they are not by any means the same thing.So when you say the GW never killed an Old God,solely supported with this type of technicalities, you conveniently avoid to remember that the soul of the respective old gods that were inside the previous AD were destroyed alas killed.
Because they are important here ,old god is gone replaced by archdemon so you are killing an archdemon in both cases you destroy an archdemon with that DR restores its soul to its uncorrupted form read old god.
Of course none of that matters to what i was saying as grey wardens job is to stop blight and fight darkspawn ,you stop blight by killing an archdemon regardless of your choice.

They just love killing themselves for no reason. Yup.

Also i didn't mention the fact that Gaider already confirmed that the Dark ritual do not provide any strategical advantage in battle (is purpose is only to save 1 GW at the cost of preserve the Old god essence).
if the DR is performed to work,(and this is something that Morrigan never reveal in-game another lie by omission because i'm sure that she know this) a GW need to strike the final blow,otherwise the magic will not work,and the AD essence will travel to another Darkspawn.

The grey warden takes the Old God's soul into himself. Since two souls can't share a single body, they're destroyed together.

Again they don't kill old god because it isn't old god anymore only archdemon so they can't kill something that doesn't exist anymore.Old god became archdemon and if you did DR archdemon is gone but old god is restored or rather his soul.
No they don't solve problems permanently they have no idea in first place what will happen with darkspawn when they will kill every archdemon what pretty much some characters with great knowledge suggested may be bad idea.
And how do you know what senior warden would do?In first place it is matter of individual we are talking about... and that is avoiding fact that those guys wanted to summon army of demons. Job description is pretty much fight with darkspawn and stop the blight if we deal with it by any mean necessary.
It isn't necessary to kill archdemon you are right, but neither is dying ,DR is just alternative solution pretty much i have already compared to shooting your enemy in the face instead jumping with your enemy from the cliff. Depending whether you trust morrigan or not it may be simple victory without unnecessary cost.

No i give up with the Komandor,he believe that the GW do not kill the old god soul when they sacrifice themselves against the AD,is a dead line with that user.
They kill archdemon and destroing its essence/soul (or at least they think they do), while DR removes corruption from its essence and reverts it back to what it was before it was corrupted.
