After much consideration and consultation here is the Top 10 Choices you made in DAO and you cannot find them in Dragon Age Keep. The selection was based on the importance of the choice itself.

 

 

#10 - Ser Cauthrien

 

The knight with the unwavering loyalty, Ser Cauthrien, is a very interesting character. DA Keep can ask the players about her fate in DAO. If she survives, she can undoubtedly find a place in a future installment or comic!

 

 

 

#9 - Guards vs Smugglers

 

Did the Warden-Commander of Ferelden side with the guards of the City of Amaranthine or he was shady enough to choose the smugglers instead? See Law and Order for more info.

 

 

 

#8 - Zathrian & Jowan

 

In most of our Walkthroughs these two Blood Mages do not survive. But what if they do? We know that Zathrian carves a very distinct path according to the Epilogue in Origins, while Jowan is the good-but-foolish type of guy who always seems to run into trouble.

 

 

 

#7 - The Nobles' Conspiracy

 

This quest is a very intricate one. In Awakening, you get to choose on how to handle a conspiracy against you by the nobles of Amaranthine. Its aftermath is also mentioned in the Epilogue.

 

 

 

#6 - Isabela

 

In Origins, Isabela is teaching the Warden a specialization. She also gets to play a card game or even engage them in something more romantic. In fact, in DAII Leliana and Isabela share an awkward moment if something happened in DAO!

 

 

 

#5 - Grand Oak & Mad Hermit

 

How did the Warden enter deeper into the Brecilian Forest? Was the Grand Oak or the Mad Hermit killed in the process?

 

 

 

#4 - The Peasant Revolution

 

Another major choice you have to make in Awakening. What did the peasants demand? Did you peacefully persuade/intimidate them? Did you accept their demands? Did you have to disperse them with force? The Peasant Revolution has an impact in the Epilogue as well.

 

 

 

#3 - Denerim Alienage

 

While in Dragon Age Keep you may choose whether to give an amulet to deranged elf or not, you don't actually have a choice on how you handled the Unrest in the Alienage quest. What happened to the hundreds of captured elves? Are they free, slaves in Tevinter or sacrificed in order to boost your Warden's health? Even more, is Caladrius and/or Devera still alive? You know, these choices are way more important and noteworthy!

 

 

 

#2 - Awakening Companions

 

This is really missing. You don't get to choose the fate of your companions. For example, if you recruited them or perhaps you were forced to kill them during the events in Awakening.

 

 

 

#1 - The Boon

 

If the Warden survives the Final Battle against the Archdemon, you get to choose a boon. Dalish get a land of their own, you can become the Teyrn/a of Gwaren and for us loyal dwarven fans, we get Fereldan military support to reclaim our lost thaigs! Yet there is no such option in Dragon Age Keep. Give us the option, please!

 

 

 

 

Hopefully you guys check out my Top 10 and tell me your opinion. Would you pick other choices? Post below!

The boon was retconned away. Most of the epilogue stuff was. A lot of that stuff seems quite trivial

I'd say Brother Genetivi and the high dragon at the Temple were pretty huge.

You mean if we killed him or not?

He can be killed or sent home before you even go to the temple.  Both those options lead to the ashes never being publicly known about.

Or he can leave knowing about the Ashes and will tell the world about them.

There's mentions about him at the start of the game. iirc

Yup.  

When I was playing Origins I thought so hard about what to do with Genetivi and the high dragon.  I planned out how to deal with both in 4 worlds, doing different things each time, only to start up the Keep, click on Urn Of Sacred Ashes and see 'did you desecrate the urn or not'.  

That was it.  The only damn choice.

Murder-knifing Genetivi?  Nope.  Leaving a dragon to prey on the faithful.  Nope.

 

Very annoying.

Was the Orlesian Warden ever addressed?

IMO, the hugest choice as far as future implications goes that was not reflected in the keep was the Collective vs Templars in the Lyrium Potion Bribery/Defend the Collective quest chains... I feel as if it would set the tone for the Warden's stance on the Mage-Templar War; ie. Helping the collective evade the templars makes the warden look more sympathetic to the mage's cause for independence, while bringing the evidence that result in the templars exterminating the collective makes the warden the opposite. Given how the war, between DAII and DAI (So roman numeral II and the I for inquisition... *sigh*) evolved into the centerpiece, the warden's stance through his interaction with the collective should speak loads for his future stance.

Personally, I find this to even trump the warden's choice in the Broken Circle quest, since that was closer to "what we think about malificarum" rather than "whether the circle should become independent of the templars."

 

As far as Zathrian goes, I always felt that the "Supported the Elves" part was basically pro-Zathrian given it was the massacre werewolf ending, while "Brokered a peace" was closer to the Lanaya and breaking the curse ending. The real intricate part is whether the PC murdered Zathrian in cold blood after slaughtering all the werewolves, which I always felt was a smaller part of the overarching choice.

All 3 can easily make it into the top 10. Especially the Orlesian Warden which is a playable character, kinda forgot about that.

 

I'd say Brother Genetivi and the high dragon at the Temple were pretty huge.

Collective vs Templars in the Lyrium Potion Bribery/Defend the Collective quest chains...

 

And also, with the Blackstones. Taoran or Raelnor or none.

I think the games ignore them as well
