If like Fire Emblem, yes.
If like anything else, no.

Main series title? NO.
Mobile? No.. I'm unsure though.
F2P? No.. I'm pretty sure.
If they're bringing up XCom, I think they should realize that XCom is a real, full game, on PC.
And that they should sell their tiny DLC through an unobtrusive way.
If its their only way of, for example, telling a story in Nevarra in the shorter (this next several years) term, then go for it. But I don't want another dinky tiny game like Dragon Age Legends, Journeys, Heroes, Last Court. If you're bringing up this idea then do it and do it right, but also keep some distance away from a DA4. Though I wouldn't really mind if it still kept into account the Dragon Age Keep.
I barely tolerated playing The Last Court for a week. A tactics game would be a vast improvement.
Having it continue the main storyline would be nice to take care of some loose ends. Maybe it can tie up what happens at Weisshaupt?
A spin off Dragon Age tactics game? You can bet your tushie I'd play it.
Yeah.. I played Final Fantasy Tactics and would happily play DA Tactics.

Could be wrong but I see so many ties to that area that I can see a DA4 starting before Trespasser and an earlier section being at Weisshaupt...

Are we talking a full-fledged stand-alone game or a microtransition generator like The Last Court or Heroes of Dragon Age?
full game

I think that would be interesting but I prefer Dragon Age go the route of a typical RPG, not tactical Personally.
this would be in addition to the main series line as opposed to instead of
This makes me think of The Banner Saga, but with DA lore. I could get into that.
(To be perfectly honest, I'll play anything with "Dragon Age" in the title. For example, I didn't think I could like a text-based game before I tried The Last Court, and yet I ended up loving it.)
No other Shining Force fans here?
Shining Force was a Geneses series, and I was mostly an SNES player at the time, so I didn't really get to experience it (one of the annoying side affects of the console exclusivity days). I remember playing it a few times. I give it a lot of credit for laying the framework for most of the tactical RPGs that came after (from a combat standpoint anyway) but I'm not versed in the lore.

I really like this Weisshaupt idea. I have a feeling there won't be much time for Weishaupt it what appears to be a Tevinter-driven DA4, so it would be a good way to tell that story. Tactics combat feels like an interesting way to deal with the Warden civil war as well, since it tends to less character-centered (you can do things like killing off half of the party without breaking the story) and its easier to shoehorn in "might be there" characters like Hawke or Alistair.
I'm starting to talk myself into this.
A cart racer DLC was planned for DA:I. There is an out-of-bounds area in the Exalted Plains that has a dirt track. So I would be okay with go-carts.
But it looks like the idea to make a Fire Emblem type Dragon Age game will go nowhere. Not nearly enough people voted yes.
Not at all. I'm still waiting for BioWare to actually make a compelling story that isn't disjointed and unintelligible. If they have to make an entirely different kind of combat system, that will only take away resources and time from crafting a better overall story.
Personally, I hate turn-based games. I think they are a dying breed with a niche crowd. If anything, I want DAI to learn from how TW3 incorporated an engaging and fulfilling combat system.

But it looks like the idea to make a Fire Emblem type Dragon Age game will go nowhere. Not nearly enough people voted yes.
Over 3/4 people out of 12400 votes said yes. 49% of all votes went to a general yes without a platform preference while another 29% said yes to PC-only or mobile/handheld. Nevermind the man got 12400 votes on a poll in a day.
edit: So it's like 78% approval, almost 4 in 5 people want it in some form.
Please, yes.
In my opinion Final Fantasy Tactics remains the best SRPG of all time in terms of gameplay and storytelling.
It came out in 1997...
I think it has held that throne long enough.
May the Bioware gods heed my call.
First of all I'd like to say I'm super down for a Dragon Age game in the same vein as Fire Emblem, especially the one pre Awakening, but with a smaller cast and Biowares character writing.
But I think I'd like instead of us making a new PC with a character creator without a set character that a spin off would be a great time for us to control a more set in personality character with just a few choices sprinkled in to up replay value, and giving us the sense of choice we like from Bioware. That way we get to learn about a character who could make appearances in other media without the backlash of Hawke, while the main series games could continue the massively varying PC's.
What's the point of the "Only on PC" option? I don't understand.

Probably as opposed to a mobile/tablet game, given the context. So, "I'd play it but not if it was on my phone."
This style of game rarely works well on console, so they might not even be considering it.
Ofc in a game like this I would not at all want BW to step away from what makes a BW game so great. With a tactical game that gives strategy. The other two components that are a must have are immersion and creativity. If you can lock down all three, you've nailed it in my book.

How in the world it doesn't works well on console? It's turn based, you just have to navigate through menus! Even a calculator could do it, hahaha. Although I don't like to play on mobile devices. It's even worse if I consider I'm a Windows Phone user.

That's not nearly enough. They would need at least 90% to say yes to go forward with this.
Out of that 78%, how many would actually like it? So 22% already don't want it. Then I'd say another 20% would hate it once they played it. And that would only sour people to the next game.
So would it be worth doing? No.
And a Twitter poll isn't accurate anyway. I would have voted no but I'm not on Twitter.
