So the title is pretty self-explanatory. What are the choices you hope will have a big effect in the future and what are the choices you wish would have had more of an effect, or one at all?

 

I would of like to know if my Warden's boon in Origins did anything at all and a small mention (like passing gossip) in a future game would be nice.

"Did you hear about Bann Shianni? She's meeting with the leaders of Wycome this month." 

"I heard the Hero of Ferelden asked for the Ferelden mage tower to be disbanded more than a decade ago."

"I won't go near the Korcari wilds with my shipments. All those savages. Used to be just the Chasind, now you got those damn elves."

ect. 

 

I hope Bhelen vs Harrowmont as king as a larger effect, and what ever happened to the Chantry there (I doubt the epilogue slides are reliable)?

 

My dwarf Warden has a child! 

 

Shale wanted to become a dwarf again because of our trip to her thaig. So... is she, isn't she? I'm sure she's still killing pigeons wherever she is (please be in Tevinter, I need you as a companion again).

 

What has the Architect been doing and I hope my choice to keep him alive will have some effect!

 

My Warden is alive. You can't use the "oh, I'm off looking for a cure" excuse forever!

 

Killing all of clan Sabrae should matter.

 

Merrill breaking/not breaking her Eluvian could have a huge impact!

 

Letting Varric keep the red lyrium should of mattered more.

 

What's Feynriel up to in Tevinter?

 

Hawke's support of the mages or templars should have mattered more -.-

 

If Anders (Justice could be no matter what) is alive what the heck is he doing? I bet there are people after him, there should be people after him.

 

The Old God soul/Dark Ritual situation should not be over. There's still an Old God soul flouting around there somewhere.

 

Hawke is alive, Stroud is dead, does that matter?

 

The Well of Sorrows, I hope this comes back to bite my Lavellan in the a**!

 

Letting the Grey Wardens stay vs banishing them should have interesting repercussions in the future.

Solas liking you, and whether or not you said you'd change his mind should matter.

 

There's a ton more, but what comes to your mind?

-The Anvil is preserved, so no support of Golems?

-The Lady of the Forest eventually grows savage, why there is no mention of werewolves?

-The werewolves were cured and became on skilled animal carers, who the hell would need Denet when you have Swiftrunner?

-If the Warden spared the Architect, why he wouldn't ask for his aid first? Utha is quite old and the Architect himself can influence over the feral darkspawn.

-And "Alistair's" civil war on Anora did any difference?

-The Hunger Demon was let to live, why Corypheus doesn't have Rock Wraiths?

-The former Arishok was killed or what? I would had liked see how different is the Qunary army under different leadership.

-I didn't met Tallis, Prosper dies regardless what? What happened to Leopold?

-Feynriel as abomination should unleash a big mess.

None , as i learned to not expect choice having any sort of impact in this series by now it should be obvious.

Still waiting for the Architect choice to ever be relevant again. Kept him alive hoping it would turn out interesting, but. Not too optimistic about it at this point, just... lowkey waiting for something to come out of it at some point. Maybe.

 

Torn between days when I'm really afraid for my Inquisitors of what the Well of Sorrows choice will mean, and days when I realize I'm just fooling myself thinking it will actually mean anything of substance.

 

That's it, really. At some point I accepted that even our big major choices don't really mean much in the long term other than getting different cutscenes and codex entries, so best enjoy the moment when you're making them because that's likely the last time they'll matter.

 

My Warden is alive. You can't use the "oh, I'm off looking for a cure" excuse forever!

 

Careful what you wish for. Next game they might just say the HoF has died in their quest for the cure, so no more excuses are necessary.

• the architect I let him live I want to know what he's running around doing.
• the wardens what happens if you banish them, do they just die out or rebuild somewhere else would be good to explore.
•well of sorrows what will become of you if you drank it.
• and the biggest, If a certain someone likes you or not and your relationship with them and what you choice you made.
• HoF are they ever going to retire if alive or do they find a cure for the wardens or die during that mission.
• abelas what happened to him were dos he wonder off to.

[d1ta]

- well of sorrows. Will that be a good thing or a bad thing drinking from it in the end.

- Inquisition disband/not disband

- if a certain 'someone' has a feeling of affection/disdain to the Inquisitor, might make that a factor to the Quizzy's survive/not survive situation later in the next game (much like depending on how you talk to TIM at the beginning of ME3 can influence him somewhat in the end). Edit: especially if that 'someone' happens to be a powerful, bald, elf mage

- A little smidge of info of how my Inqui/LI is doing in the next game (please let it be a happy one all LI slides should have a happy note! I demand it! )

[Tielis]

LOL is the only thing I can say, sadly.  

 

Nothing we do matters beyond a codex entry or a cameo.

[ottffsse]

Going forward probably:

 

-well of sorrows decision (um mythal where is mythal is she part of solas now or what, gees?)

-solas friend or not so friend?

-the inquisition decision at the end of dai

-your quisi's class/ specialization (it's actually already in the keep) should add to future individuality and options should they have a cameo/ role in DA4

-rebuilt templars or rebuilt mages?

 

 

I think those can potentially be the big ones. 

[Moirin]

well of sorrows decision

what's gonna happen with the OGB Old God Soul now?

[Ardent Blossom]

I agree with the others I've read here, especially the Well choice. Bioware would be silly to gloss over that. I'll add a couple.

 

-if you tainted the Sacred Ashes and if you killed the cult's Andraste dragon 

-if you completed Slim Couldry's crime wave and what you did with the Tears of Andraste

-if you let Solas kill the stupid mages in his personal quest

-Trespasser Spoiler

Spoiler

if you killed or freed the dragon

[d1ta]

Here's another one:

HoF's success or not in finding a cure may depend on how you deal with Avernus.
The result of HoF's mission hopefully can be tied somewhat to the Greywarden Order's fate (would it be a factor in their civil war or will it impact the conscript/exile decision).

Saving the chargers have another benefit: The dwarven sapper manages to complete his goal, that is making his own version of gaatlok (pretty pleaseeee )

Lol. Well I'm definitely not wishing for their death and I think I'd be pretty upset if BioWare decides to kill them off off screen!  For the most part BioWare is just giving the illusion of choice and I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, I just wish some of the bigger decisions did matter or had mattered in deeper ways.

[lynroy]

Really the only one I can think of is the Well of Sorrows.

Ilusion they may give you in Mass Effect (where in fact decision even may matter) in Dragon Age there is no illusion that choice matters it either is ignored and doesn't matter or you are told straight in the face that outcome is pretty much the same for certain choice ,and it is very bad thing and horrible writing. Either bioware should learn lesson to follow ME route or simply abandon import as if they can't handle it they shouln't touch it, as it pretty much not only limits roleplaying experience (options you are given to affect universe) in favor import of decisions that anyway don't matter and are brought into single outcome, but looks absolutely ridiculous from story perspective where somehow from nowhere bioware steers choice into same outcome when it doesn't even fit .

Given that DA4 will be heavily about ancient leven lore or will have a whole chunk of that I do assume it would be reasonable to have the well of sorrows decision be brought into play again, perhaps to use against S (Do not trust Solas, why do you think he was REALLY so upset at you for drinking from the well if your quizzy did that?). we already saw it at the end with coryfish and some fights one can avoid / adjust in trespasser. That could be easily mean that either Morrigan or the quizzy has to join whoever is the new protege of DA4 to complete an important part of that quest for instance. That would be great. I hope bioware does something cool with that tidbit.

DA4 will inevitably focus on elven lore, yes, but is it that the same way Inquisition was supposed to be about resolving the mage-templar conflict? Just asking since the greater threat lead to quite a lot of info on ancient elves actually. 

So while DA4 should delve into all topics elves, I think there might be quite a lot of "everything else", including comeuppance for non-elven lore related choices. Hoping so anyway - until I'm proven wrong
