It's different considering that Corypheus was a dlc, but Solas was a companion and in the final dlc as well.

It's not that much different for me. Legacy DLC was my fave and I liked Cory as a potential villian back then. I would have preferred Hawke be the one to come back to finish off what was started. It didn't happen and now I'm at the point where I'd rather not see old protagonists come back...I'm now even glad they never brought the Warden back.

I'm starting to think I might just hate the Inquisitor.

I didn't think I did. I had thought I liked the Inquisitor well enough; not as much as the Warden but at least as much as Hawke, if not more.

But really, more I think about it, I think I just want to move away from the Inquisition and everything it stood for. I didn't get to be the Inquisitor I wanted to be. The quote in my signature? I didn't get to come anywhere close to being that guy. I hated the Inquisition as an organization and I hated being strapped to it.

And it's not even the railroading. I love the Wardens.

I just want to move away from the Inquisitor. I want something new and I want someone new.

I do actually like my Inquisitor but would still rather see a new character. I just often have felt dissatisfied when BW tries to continue the story of a protagonist in another game (Hawke, even going back to Shepard in ME series).

One can argue that the whole point of removing that arm is to give Inquisitor a new identity.

And that identity should be mentor/advisor to the new protagonist. Not magical cyborg with a wolf obsession.

Except that wouldn't work because many will complain about the NPC being out of character. If you control the dialogue it's even more weird because then you're just talking to yourself lol.

Where are the options for Hawke or the Warden? My preference would be Hawke or new protag.

I only wanted to include the main options because otherwise you end up with endless choices that only 1 or 2 people will choose.

Well if they go the dual protagonist route, then I'm assuming they'd talk to each other at some point, so it'll happen anyway.

 

And if they go the inquisitor as sole protagonist route, then I won't know what will happen because I won't buy the game.

Well, in a dual protagonist option, they could be allies who send information to each other. Actually having a face to face conversation is just weird.

Why don't you consider Hawke or Warden main choices? IMHO they are both more interesting protagonists than the inquisitor.

Interesting to you, but I just don't see it happening from a narrative standpoint. It's also going to be even more complicated than a dual protagonist option which is already complicated. It's just not going to happen.

Both can be dead and I wouldn't want any of them back either.

I just want to move away from the Inquisitor. I want something new and I want someone new.

 

Eh, you don't even have to dislike the Inquisitor to feel like that. I go the full opposite road (love my IQ to bits, her Inquisition's goals turned out to be everything I wanted it to be, surprisingly enough), and still I also just want to move away from this whole Inquisition plot. Trespasser was the perfect epilogue to me for that reason - it allowed me a chance to wrap up my character's fate exactly the way I wanted it, disbanding the Inquisition, waving her Divine bye bye, moving away from all that world-saving business, getting her happily ever after, and basically shrugging Solas off because she just doesn't care anymore, it's time for someone else to take the mantle of big damn hero of the week.

 

It's an understandable feeling, specially after getting a whole slide show send off as we did - like the character or not, for a lot of us the story of the Inquisitor is over. As much as I loved my Inquisitor while it was her time in the spotlight, she's done with it all, and for the next round I'll need something and someone new too to keep me interested.

I have no interest in playing as a pair of pen pals.

 

Honestly I think the face to face where you're controlling both of them might have some novelty to it. Actually suggested that as a way they could bring back the Warden for dlc at one point.

 

And while we're on the debate over which protagonist deserves a come-back, I'll say this; I am much, much more interested in seeing a hypothetical encounter between Solas and the Warden then I am in seeing Solas ever speak to the Inquisitor again. Does Solas have power over Morrigan now that he's absorbed Mythal? What does he know about the Blight and the Old Gods? Those are questions I'd much rather see answered.

It's understandable to feel that way as a player, but the game doesn't actually allow inquisitor to shrug Solas off considering the only choices are I will stop you or I will redeem you.

I was probably being a little overly dramatic with that post. I am disappointed in the Inquisition as an organization and what it could accomplish and how; it wasn't anything like what I was hoping for. But I do like my Inquisitor himself well enough. 

 

But I never want to see him in another DA game again.

Considering my Inquisitor's epilogue ending was literally "disbands Inquisition and goes off to live in the mountains with her husband and a dog," that after-credits stinger is what makes zero sense in this situation. The cognitive dissonance between "your Inquisitor let go of everything and went off to chase that rainbow" and the following "wait no they didn't actually they're still having little egg-obssessed secret cabal meetings" that I got from that ending sequence was so disorienting that I had to go back and watch the credits again to make sure I hadn't imagined them. Bit of poor planning there; if the slides/stinger sequence was meant to make me emotionally invested in hunting Solas down, it backfired spectacularly - all it made me emotionally invested in is my IQ actually going for that rainbow and leaving the next big hero to do whatever they want about the egg.

[Fiery Phoenix]

New protagonist all the way. BioWare has yet to convince me that they can continue a protagonist's story properly.

 

Ideally I'd want a Tevinter-born protagonist (or a native), but this wouldn't really bother me either way.

[Morroian]

and completely irrelevant.

 

Inquisitor could be said to be irrelevant now as well just as much as Hawke.

[Former_Fiend]

I would like them to continue with multiple races. Just implement it from the start instead of tacking it on when you get extra time.

I was a Solasmancer so I didn't get the dissonance,  but yeah Bioware messed up with the writing for people who made other choices.

I want that. I think it would be fun to kind of build a relationship between your new character and former character through conversations, especially if they're working towards the same goal...or if one is working towards a goal and the other tries to sabotage it. 

[Fiery Phoenix]

Well, they've already tried three times with Mass Effect

 

And while I loved the ME trilogy as much as the next guy, you have to admit Shepard was generally poorly developed as a protagonist, save for a few very specific instances.

Was most of it due to ME2?
