Inquisition is a threat to their power structure. Nobles AREN'T going to want a new playmate. So they want the Inquisitor gone. Good gravy, the Arishok was right, wasn't he? That speech he gave in DAII REALLY hits the head on the nail when it comes to Thedas. Inquisitor saves the world, so they want them gone. Means they are SCARED of them, and are trying to use political maneuvers to alienate them. A political and character assassination, most likely since they can't touch them directly. I wonder though...since it LOOKED like the Divine was there, will our choice be represented? Will they be an ally, or an enemy? WHAT IF...depending on your choices, the new Divine turns against you? Wouldn't that be something? Will the Emperor, who you might have saved, be a friend, or are they going to stab you in the back? I figure Celene will, but what about Gaspard? Will he stick up for you? Will your decision to let Celene, Gaspard, or Briala die come back to bite you? What about Bull? Will his choice be reflected? Will Blackwall be an ACTUAL Grey Warden now? Did Varric write his book? Did Dorian return to Tevinter? Is Sera grown up any? What about Hawke? Is Charter potentially your new spymaster? What about the King and Queen of Ferelden? What about the mages? Or the Templars? Will their fate affect what is to come? Will we hear about them? Reuniting your team says they went their separate ways...even your LI?
There are a LOT of questions. I hope they touch on SOME of them...it's just over a week to wait. This was a SHORT turn around...was it ready at the same time as Descent? Was Descent just there to tide us over until Trespasser was given the finishing touches?
I like the tone. This HAS to go out with a bang...not a whimper. This looks to be a personal quest for the Inquisitor.
Also...as a personal note, I hope the choice with the Chargers...to let them die OR to save them...I REALLY hope...it bites either way. Since they truly screwed it up (can't save the Chargers...so WHY did I recruit the Blades then?) I really want this to turn into something where the Qunari basically say, 'You let those who trust you DIE...remember the(Chargers/Qunari)?' I hope Bull's choice factors in as well...because if these ARE with the Qun, he might not be on your side...
No disagreement, I just hope that the Inquisition isn't railroaded into being defeated for the sake of the plot. After everything that we've been through, the Inquisition should be able to stand up for itself to prove that it's existence is not base on the whim and wind of Thedas' incompetent leaders. These jerks wouldn't be around if not for the Inquisition saving their bums no less than four times and they want to get rid of the organization because it's inconvenient to their status quo? If that's how they express their gratitude, then kill em all I say.
Also, how is this resounding with the common majority? How is assailing their hero and apparent chosen one from the christ-figure of their religion not going to raise some heavy tension between the state and the people. That's likely why whoever's out for the Inquisition may attempt a character assassination.
DA2 already shows us what happens when you railroad players, heavily restrict agency and force-in drama for the sake of drama...it turns a good idea into bad and un-fun execution.
