If it ever happens, expect to be greatly disappointed.

WoF nearing his/her calling?

 

 

I don't expect the HoF to play a major role, but hopefully they'll actually help (similar to zevran's war table mission) beat Solas' forces than "busy looking to cure the taint"

I would personally prefer if my Warden was left alone. No shame in wishing though if that's what you like.

 

 

Really?

 

After spending some time here in the forums and seeing what people post about this, I'm not sure I believe that.

There really is no shame in wanting your Warden back. Other people shaming you for it or adamantly posting against it does not change that.

Yeah, I was thrilled to get a 24 hour ban for replying to someone insisting the Warden would be the protagonist for DA I. What was it for? They listed their reasons in bullet points, I responded to them with bullet points, and got banned for taunting.

However, as an interesting aside, did you know that there's a forum here specifically for the discussion of the Warden? Well, the Warden, and all things Origins. It should be obvious, by now, that the Warden isn't going to be the protagonist for DA I, I mean, we have played the final chapter. There's no forum yet for any new Dragon Age game, I'm not even sure they've submitted anything for approval yet. However, you'll find that you get a lot less flak talking about the Warden in the Origins forum. People that go there are actually looking to talk about him/her, and other aspects of the game where he/she was actually relevant.

I hope BW just gives us something. Nothing have to be major, but I'd like to get some answers regardless. I like that I can make a choice which really heavily weighs, the feels that I actually make some important changes by what I choose. I've loved that about DA. But after Trespasser, I somewhat felt neglected. I heard Leliana romanced warden got some pretty sweet epilogue, but what about others? And seriously, what the heck is going on with the cure for calling? Found it and retired? Gave it up and retired? If s/he is with Leliana, would s/he join the inquisition against Solas? I guess maybe BW would run that story in DA4, but so far it just felt unfinished and unfulfilled to me. And not in a intriguing way, I might add. I really would like to have some closure.

How would people feel about a Hawke-like appearance? That would limit the amount of convo while retaining a meaningful role. I would settle for two (male/female) VOs just to have that possibility. 4 VOs would be neat to satisfy a Dwarf, but like DAI the humans and elves could have the same one.

Maybe the guy that voiced Ameridan, his voice was great.

I think it might be a neat comprimise.

Leliana was the only potential LI who belonged to the Inquisitor's inner circle: by Trespasser end Morrigan has already left, a romanced Zevran was never involved with Inquisition business as he was traveling with the HoF, and Alistair is either dead, ensnared in Weisshaupt's red tapes or governing alongside his cuckold Queen. It makes sense that only Leliana was mentioned.

Bad idea.

I mean I was fine with Hawke's cameo, personally, but many complained loudly because s/he wasn't involved enough. I wouldn't be surprised if the writers dos-and-don'ts list now includes "Don't bring back previous protagonists unless you're willing to commit resources to make them playable with their own dialogue wheel"

I'm not just saying about Li related. It's more about lacking of explanations of everything besides somewhat retirement life with Leliana. I would have preferred an epilogue that s/he would go on their journey to find cure for the calling, like officially. Then, in da4 they could be still looking for it, so there would be no need for them to enter into this story again. Just a little status check would be appreciated.

If a prior player character was to return in the next game. Then its probably The Inquisitor. If the next game was to involve dealing with Solas. Then why not have the player character Solas knows and has a history with. Instead of a new player character, who is just a stranger to him.If it was treated in a similar vain to switching over to play as ciri in the Witcher.So as Hawke's appearance in DAI shows its possible for Bioware to allow you to have a prior player character in game. Just whether Bioware would do something more interesting with a previous player character like allowing you control of them again to provide a different perspective on the story is another matter.

Oh you can definitely talk about the HOF!
 
 
...
 
 
... If you can time travel back to when it WASN'T already talked about for 999 times, each time with the exact same ring to it.
 
 
Seriously though, a simple google search could've prevented half of the RETURN OF THE HOF! threads because the devs have already said they're not gonna do it. Also these type of threads have been beaten to death already and making a thread about a topic that already has been covered is a bit pointless as well. Is it really that hard to swallow that maybe a bunch of the community are tired of threads like these?
 
Besides, you CAN talk about the HoF in general.

No you cant!

Trust me mate you really cant

[LOLandStuff]

I wouldn't mind finding journal entries by the HoF. But I'd rather not see them again.

[dogstar12]

I would like to know if the Warden found a cure to the calling, also according to the series writers and developers the difficulty involved in bringing the warden into future games includes giving a voice as well as the sense that the Hero is in fact "too important" to the series for justice to be done to them at present. so the warden could come back if they figure it out

Seriously though,what's the point in wanting something that cannot happen?

Isn't better to just let it go?

Warden suffer of the cat paradox .

See the warden paradox,the HoF is dead and alive at the same time,wonderful isn't  it?

[Rawgrim]

He can't be in DA4. Unless they decide to bring back every spell and ability from DA:O. The specs too, I suppose. Any other way would just mess up the continuity of the character severely.

[Ieldra]

I'm fine with the way things are. My Warden is alive somewhere, doing something meaningful, and no Bioware writer present to derail his character as they make him come back as an NPC.

 

Still, I appreciate the comments of those who want the Warden back, since it is an indication of one opinion I share: DAO is a classic, and Bioware hasn't managed to match it yet with any of their later games.

[The_Shade]

I'd like some DLC to wrap things up. Bioware had nicely concluded my Warden's story somewhat with the Witch Hunt DLC. Until they brought back Morrigan (my Warden's LI), Morrigan & the Warden's son and stated that my Warden was somewhere looking to cure the calling that if found, could change the lives of all Grey Wardens living in Thedas. Therefore, I feel Bioware have a responsibility as writers to provide closure here. 

[Homeboundcrib]

I wouldn't mind hearing from them again by letters and all that it's the only way to really bring them back there are way to many factors to bring the HoF back into the game.

[caradoc2000]

We will probably get a Twitter message:

HeroOfFerelden @HoF

Still looking for a cure for #Calling. One million followers today! Thanks, guys!

HoF may i ask a question?

This cure,are you trying to make it or are you trying to find it?

Make it or Break it

You haven't played Awakening. The ending says 'Their jounry isn't done yet...' Why did you write that, Bioware? To troll us? That's most likely the case.

Technically, their journey is indeed continuing... offscreen

Presumably because they weren't completely sure about what they were doing in the next game and hadn't settled on the new protagonist pattern yet.

No they don't. The cure was just a way to get all potential HoFs far away from the plot of DAI, and it might not be something that can be replicated. More likely they intend to let the player finish the story in their headcanon. Did the Hero find the cure and return to their lover? Did they eventually succumb to the Calling? Your choice. With the setting moving to the other side of the Continent, there's no longer a need to come up with reasons to keep them away from the plot.

Lol...my sides. Have you played Inquisition yet?

Man the writers had the Inquisitor in the fade with Morrigan, Kieran, and Flemeth despite the fact that he/she has zero emotional investment in the situation that was unfolding. Hell, Leliana or Alistair would have been more appropriate...or ya know... The Hero of Ferelden.

Could've played Hawke instead of the Inquisitor considering the history between him and Corypheus.

Chances are we'll confront Solas with a new protagonist that doesn't have any idea who he is or what his motivations truly are. Lucky for us Solas will take the time to explain himself to our clueless protag
