1) Who do I play as, Male or Female

 

2) Who do I play as, Qunari or Elf (went with human)

 

3) Who do I play as, Rogue or Mage (went with warrior)

 

Edit:

 

I felt little to no connection to this game so my choices were not difficult.

 

Edit edit:

 

I just realised I sh*t on this game so much. I do hope I don't come across as a troll.  :(

 

 

What is it that you dislike so much about it?

Mine:

 

1. DAO: perform the Dark Ritual?

    DAO: protect the city of Amaranthine or the Keep?

2. DA2: kill Anders?

3. DAI: leave Hawke/Warden in the Fade?

 

Those are the toughest decissions as both outcomes are bad. In the rest of the choices it was clear which was the "good" one.

Dragon Age: Origins

1. Do I spare the Architect, or do I kill him? On the one hand I find that keeping him alive could prove invaluable later, on the other it leaves a very powerful 'darkspawn' alive.

 

2. Do I defile Andraste's ashes or not? Considering the ramifications of this and the playthrough I was aiming for >_>

 

Dragon Age 2

1. Should I let Merril keep the mirror?

 

Dragon Age: Inquisition

1. Did I trust Vivienne enough to help her on her personal quest, she was very suspicious.

2. Cooooooooooooooooole! To be human, or not to be, that is zee question!

Anvil of the Void decision - Ultimatley went with Caridin.

Taking Bethany to the DR - Canon play through I took her with me.

Dreadnought - My Inq chose dreadnought, figured the ships would be more helpful than a handful of mercs... Good thing he wasn't deciding the Anvil... He would've gone with the Golems :-S

isn't letting your whole family die rather tragic? i always save my last family member. no matter what. so it is not difficult at all...

Oh, I agree, it is tragic. And I don't really want to kill off somebody just because they're annoying rather than downright evil and wanting to kill me first. Still, Carver's 'It's all about me' and 'Never my fault' attitude comes this close to making me reconsider. I mean, even when you send him to the Grey Wardens to save him, the next time he sees you he puts all the blame on you for what happened. Even though he *insisted* on coming along. No, scratch that, whined his way to coming along. It's both frustrating and depressing at once. Granted, he gets slightly better in Act III, but it's almost too late for me to feel all that much sympathy for him.

1. Morrigan dark ritual

2. Killing or sparing the Architect

3. Choosing between Loghain and Hawke

 

Choosing between the chargers and the Qunari was an difficult one too.

1. Anvil of the Void - I preserved it. I needed an army of golems. And by army, I mean all 4 of them.

 

2. Which companions to bring? I didn't find any "hard" choices in DA2. Maybe Bethany vs Carver.

 

3. Morrigan vs Inquisitor - who drinks from the Well. I ultimately chose the Inquisitor.

Oooh this is a fun one.  And a rather unique one considering my top two options are rather...funny.  

 

1.  To kill or not to kill the Architect:  Hardest damn decision I ever made in my entire life, at least in a game.  Lol.  This one was hard.  He was a darkspawn, but he was a darkspawn who wanted peace with the surface!  He wanted to join with the Wardens and end the Blights...yeah but he is a bit creepy and took you prisoner against your will, plus he is dangerously naive...and darkspawn!  Yeah, but then wouldn't your Warden be at the place in their story arc that they would not just kill people willy nilly?...damn.  

 

2.  Tallis ally or not.  Admittedly this one was more selfish considering I wanted to enjoy the Mark of the Assassin and I felt...dunno why...that if I did not leave her I would miss out on gameplay.  Yet it was still tough for me, probably went up and down each path at least once, and in the end chose to side with her.  Started up the no path...'please Hawke help me'.  And then was like *groan...sigh*...ok.  

 

3.  The Well of Sorrows.  Probably a bit of a cop out after all, Cassandra convinced me easily to not drink.  Yet the implications are tough...even without knowing mythal's identity.

Anvil of the Void - Oh so tempting to preserve it but ultimately I don't
Drink from the Well, or Morrigan drinks - but having done both I truly enjoy Morrigan's reaction when Mythal shows her face.
Hawke vs Alistair in the Fade - this one is very hard because Varric is SO sad if you leave Hawke behind but how can I leave my Alistair behind???

I had no problem whatsoever with the DR decision when I was romancing Alistair. I wanted both of us to be able to live so I didn't hesitate at all. even though Morrigan was kind of creepy in DAO.

I guess I just love my Alistair!

Hmm, My HoF romances Morrigan so DR was no big deal. The Anvil decision was made with being morally against trapping souls in golem constructs. The Werewolves/Elves brokered peace while banishing the demon controlling Conner with Circle help made those decisions quite easy. I kept all companions in DAO so those are all good. Sooo..

3. Executing Loghain or Accepting him into the Grey Wardens.

I struggled with this choice ONLY because of Alistair's reaction. With my HoF as Anora's husband, his father-in-law is his new Grey Warden buddy. In all other cases, he is dead.

Throughout DA2, I had my mind made up. Hawke's a great guy whether he's nice, funny, or down right forceful. Choices were clean cut.

2. Who to sacrifice in the Fade? Father-in-law Loghain or my cool Hawke. If nothing becomes of Anora, Loghain, and HoF in the future.. this will be clean cut to who is left behind in the fade.

1. Who drinks from the Well? Does the PC gain power without future negative effects? If the PC isn't negatively affected in the future/final DLC.. it will become clear cut for me here as well.

Basically, these gave me a lot to think about.. As the future is revealed, it may be easier.

Bhelen or Harrowmont gets an extra mention. There's no win in this one. Very tricky.

 

I tried every variation possible with this choice and my personal favorite was to side with Branka against Caridin, and allow her to keep using the Anvil of the Void. After doing this, support Harrowmont and he will easily be able to put down Bhelen's remaining supporters and survive as King of Orzammar.

With the small downside of surfacers getting kidnapped to be made into golems. But it's just them cloudheads, so whatevs :D

I found the choices to be rather easy in the first two games. I tend to just follow my moral compass. The only one I really hesitate with is who to choose between Harrowmont or Bhelen. I mean... Endrin wanted Harrowmont to take over, and even though Bhelen is a tool... he does the most for the dwarves. Even if he is a tyrant. Do I follow the dead king's wishes, or do what might be best for the dwarves as whole?

 

Inquisition had the ones that I'll sit and think about for a while.

 

1. Do I want to drink from the Well?

2. Hawke or Alistair/Loghain. It's easy when it's Shroud, but I like Alistair. And even Loghain :P

3. Templars or Mages. Then the subdecision of conscription or allying... choices!

 

Not like it really matters in the end. But to each their own.

Da:O/A: The architect.

 

da2: Who Hawke blamed for her mothers death. Fate of the dalish Clan, I really don't want to kill them, but the line that needed to be said to avoid it would be out of character for my Hawke.

 

Da:I, the well of sorrow. The choice between freedom of mind and knowlegde - the two things my Lavellan values most. It is the hårdest decision to date, because I still don't know what is in character for her.

1. Anvil of the Void. Being a Grey Warden whose sole purpose is to stop the blight, I believe that most Grey Warden's would have gladly accepted an army of Golems to ensure victory against the blight. Yet, the nagging issue for me is the imprisonment of souls. One of the greatest aspects of DAO is the Warden's capacity to defeat the blight, in spite of doing things that Grey Wardens wouldn't normally do. My Warden also saved Amaranthine when the typical GW would have burned it to the ground and made a stand at Vigils Keep.

 

2. Dark Ritual. Its a weak choice based on when its proposed because you have next to no information to go on. Take it or die, you have no idea of the consequences of the outcome, though its fairly implied to be negative. As we see it played out, its result seems to be next to nothing of consequence. Hindsight is 20/20.

 

3. Well of Sorrows. In the DA tradition, its a weak choice that is forced upon the player without a whole lot of information as to its outcome or consequence. DA writers love their secrets, and every one is so awesome it can't be revealed until DA8. Ultimately my Inquisitor drank from the well... ONLY because my canon Warden romanced Morrigan, performed the DR and went through the eluvian. It would have been nice to make the choice as the Inquisitor, but because of the murkiness of the choice, my Inquisitor had to defer to my inner Warden, who always would protect Morrigan, in spite of herself. Weak, bad writing/design.

tbh i usualy don't have problems choosing after i decide how i'll RP my char. but there are few that made me walk away from the computer and think. whether those choices have an impact on the game doesn't really matter. they had immense impact on me.

DAO

1. Architect

2. Anvil of the Void (Branka/Caridin)

3. Nature of the Beast (Zathrian/spirit)

 

DA2

1. take Carver to the Deep Roads or leave him home

Depends on the character I was playing as. For Origins:

 

3. Free Sten or leave him. (Freed)

 

2. Kill Marjoline or let her go. (Killed)

 

1. Destroy the Power of Blood concoction or leave it alone. (Left)

 

For Inquisition:

 

3. Accept or refuse Sera's help. (Accepted)

 

2. Encourage The Iron Bull to recall the Chargers or have them hold the hill. (Hold)

 

1. Encourage Cole to be more like a spirit or human. (Spirit)

 1.) Cole -- humanize, or inspirit? (prefer human path, but hard to reject Solas's more convincing and less risky advice)

2.) Architect -- ally or kill? (I go with ally but cannot argue much with killing him)

3.) Alistair -- exile or drunkard? (Since I am supporting Anora I'll trust her judgment, just wish I did not blindside Al this badly).

1. Dark Ritual. (Or, "Am I okay with letting my boyfriend sleep with the sketchy girl?" I like Morrigan, but that was definitely sketchy.)

2. Who to leave in the Fade. (Or, "Everything sucks for Hawke vs. the Dead Boyfriends Club.")

3. Canon romance choice in DA2. (Or, "How badly should Hawke suffer?")

 

Solutions:

1. Not really, but it's better than dying.

2. Everything sucks for Hawke.

3. Very. (So, Anders, who then dies.)
