I normally don't get too involved in the forums but after just completing the Trespasser DLC I thought I'd give my 2 cents.
On a side note, lol at how many angry disbanders there are hahaha.
For me I choice to integrate the Inquisition to a peace keeping personal guard for Divine Victoria who is Leliana.
I am quite happy with the ending I got and I'll explain why, and some of the reasons are going to be so stupid, if anyone is interested in reading my post.
I was happy to have Leliana as the new divine because I liked how she really made the chantry to be less about politics and discrimination and more about peace and acceptance.
Looking at today's society, it frustrates me when religion often mixes itself into politics often becoming very messy and so just based on what I thought would be a nice ideal, since I get to have a say as Inquisitor hehe, is that the chantry shouldn't be political.
It could be the one place where people who don't give a crap about lame politics can escape and still contribute positively to the community without ulterior motives.
So in saying that, I chose to keep the peace and make the Inquisition her honour guard because I know there will be too many political and religious fanatics trying to assassinate her. Leliana is an original character, from origins through to her cameo in DA:2 and then now in DA:I, I felt like she had come such a long way and went through such a transformative journey that I kind of wanted to stick around and see her through til the very, very end as well as ensure she stayed alive to spread the love and peace (lol that sounded so hippie).
I wouldn't mind Cassandra being divine but I felt that the Seekers would definitely need as much help as it could get to be properly reformed and so I'd have preferred Cassandra to focus more on that rather than split her focus over too many things.
Plus with the potential Elvhen rebellion possibly happening, a potential war of mages thanks to Vivienne, crap getting crappier in Tevinter with their war against the Qun, and then trouble brewing with the Wardens in Weisshaupt, I figured if she managed to actually get the order properly re-established, they could be a potential ally if a crisis were to emerge from any mixture of those potential threats.
I kept Iron Bull with the Chargers simply because out of some crazy fantasy that he would some how interact and possibly persuade Sten (Qun from DA:O) to not war against Thedas, or at least be an example that you don't have to war if you don't want to and hopefully be persuasive through example. I remember at the end of DA:O Sten mentioned to the hero of Fereldan that he hopes they won't meet on the battlefield alluding to some inevitable war.
I know that's such a dumb reason but I also liked the chargers anyway since I dislike politics and scheming and the Qun aren't loyal to anything really.
My Inquisitor was a female elf mage who romanced Solas and I did that in the hopes that it would really have a significant role in DA:4 (praying there is a DA:4) and that it would really enable me to change Solas a.k.a Fen'Harel's mind.
I told Solas that I would hope to change his mind.
I figured going against him with aggression obviously will not work because he'll simply turn you to stone before you can think of an argument, and even quicker if you decide to attack him.
He may have been weaker than Cory at the beginning but that was only because he had just awoken. In the span of 2 years, his strength rose so quickly that an entire sector of the Qun army were literally no match against his might, especially since it seemed like he usurped the power of Mythal (or something to that effect) making him even stronger, but he DOES have a heart and that's where I feel you're going to be most effective.
My Inquisitor also drank from the well because I really didn't want Morrigan to be dragged any further into this and you can see she really is quite devoted to Connor and so I wanted there to be an opportunity for her to have her happy little family.
Plus I'm hoping that in DA:4 (again praying that there will definitely be one) I wanted there to be a way to keep everything still linked together.
Anyway, I also feel like since my Inquisition is now bound to Solas and is also romanced with him, this will all add up to successfully changing his mind!!
If DA:4 is the final DA instalment that will sum up the DA world, I'm hoping the Hero of Ferelden, Alistair and at least some of the original gang, Hawke, and then the Inquisition will all have one giant get together lol.
They can make it an exclusive party where you had to have literally saved the world to gain access to this particular meet up haha.
Anyway overall I really enjoyed DA:I and can't wait to see the advances in classes, races and skills in DA:4!!
On a side note, if there is a war between mages because of annoying Vivienne, I wonder if Valta will make an appearance.
I imagine that with the war against mages and templars, and now a war between factions of mages, surely the abuse of Lyrium will upset the child of stone.
Or perhaps The Descent DLC was an introduction to a potential dwarven mage class selection???
Well that's just my thoughts rambling on now so I'll stop the post here.
