Buying RTO, I already have enough cool armor and weapons, story was short and combat was boring.



In game, getting fooled by Bhelen as a dwarf noble. My ambition got the better of me.

Making the deal with the demon when "saving" Connor. It wasn't out of character at all, but that one felt super nasty; I think because no one ever knows but you, and you still get hailed as a hero for it.


Yep.. me too, Sarielle.

However, there is a trick to this... well, two, but I didn't know you could intimidate the Demon into getting what you want *and* leaving...

The thing is, we were both Magi... so we knew exactly how long Connor was *really* going to last...

Tell me how long this boy is going to survive in the Circle Tower before Gregoir and Irving make him Tranquil?

He has already shown himself too weak... there is only one fate for Connor, and all Magi know it.

Poor Connor...

I killed Connor for the first time last night and was devastated for about an hour, even after reloading and choosing to go to the Circle for help. The conversation you have with him where he basically says that he's willing to die if it means no one else gets hurt was just utterly heartbreaking.


My first playthrough I wanted blood magic so I made the deal with the desire demon.  My thought process, Connor would go to the tower and get some training, and when the desire demon came back for her prize, either he'd have the strength to face her on his own, or failing that, he'd be in the mage tower where the templars would quickly dispatch him.

When I finished the game and you learn that he disappears in the night a few weeks after you save Ferelden, before he can be sent to the tower, and his mother and father search for him for years before finally giving up hope - I felt like the worst kind of bastard.


Oh... right.

My very first play through as a mage I sided with Bhelen. Then I played a dwarf noble and felt like crap for siding with him on my first character. But, the city does do better with him in the lead at least.

I regret not being able to slowly torture that bloody Howe to death and not being able to burn that witch Marjolaine on a stake.



And Cailan dying. He was young and foolish, but seemed like a very nice guy. I wanna find out more about him, but there's still no RtO on PS3.

I regretted killing the Desire Demon at the Broken Circle, after I discovered that killing the demon didn't free the Templar, and reading his diary. I suppose they must have been killed when the Templars returned anyway, though.



I regret slaughtering practically everyone in Haven, even though it was self-defense. So far as I can tell (am I wrong?), they weren't really harming anybody until Brother Genitivi started snooping about. It would have been better if nobody ever heard of the ashes, and Eammon died. I don't see any reason why Teagan couldn't perform his role at Landsmeet and surely saving Conner & the town ought to give him enough incentive to help me..

Killing Connor. He was so very dignified and resigned about it.
Reloaded, and accepted Isolde's sacrifice instead. It's the least she could do for instigating the death of so many people.


Alistaire didn't like it one bit when Jowan used Isolde (with her permission) to power his blood magic that sent my character into the Fade to deal with the desire demon possessing Connor.

Back at camp, he confronted my character and she lost 20 points approval! OUCH! OUCH!! OUCH!!! That ticked me off, too, because it dropped him from around 85 approval to 65 approval.

Ruck... Telling Ruck's mom that he died, (if there would of been a pleasanter way of telling her then maybe I would of done it) when in truth he didn't but he's become a monster but I couldn't kill him either... I'm a mom, I'd want to know regardless of what's become of my son no matter what... That was the hardest thing I've had to do in the game







Well except asking Alistair to sleep with Morrigan lol... To many reason's I didn't feel comfortable about that 1.

My biggest regret was romancing Alistair as my elf mage only to help him become king at which point he dumps me flat and refuses to talk to me and then doesn't allow me to suicide with dignity rather then watch him marry some human chick...Went back and save and chose Logain... Never again Alistair. You let me take the lead and then whine and bish at me for making choices you forced me to make... grr. Now I don't even let him leave camp. I would rather take my dog along thank you.

Like Thor, I was honest with Ruck's mother. Then everytime I went to the Orzammar shops after that, I had to watch her grieving over a son who was worse than dead. Later characters were a bit less soft (do players get "hardened"?), and did what Ruck asked and lied.



Sometimes, lying is the most honest thing you can do.

Yes, this one is quite terrible if you are honest with her, as she decides to venture into the Deep Roads herself, where she'll most likely either be quickly killed or become a ghoul herself - or worse - broodmother to replace the one I killed.  I was even afraid Ruck might kill her or himself when he saw her.  I felt no guilt about lying to her.  I wished there had a been a better option to 'redeem" Ruck.

Sorry, I figured on a "regrets" thread most people would have tried several versions of things by now.  :)  But honestly, this was the only part of my epilogue where I really felt guilt and shame about a decision I had made.  Fortunately, now that BM is unlocked, I never need to betray him like that again.  I know there is a save/restore way to unlock it, but I felt that for my first playthrough if I was going to be a blood mage I should live with the consequences, even though I didn't know what they were at the time.

As dwarf noble, first playthrough. Killed Bhelen and put Harrowmont on the throne. (Surely with the Anvil of the Void he'll do well!)



Yeah, that ended badly. My vengeance against Bhelen was sweet, but seeing Harrowmont run Orzammer into the ground...not so much.

Pah !! Poor Alistair my arse, he acts like an impetulent child if you recruit Loghain, he needs to get over himself and  remember to embrace the ethos of the wardens " anything for the good of the country " lol :0)

( sorry, I'm doing a runthrough as an evil character atm, I think it's rubbing off on me )

You're wrong.  There's a house on the left just as you enter the town.  Right after speaking to the surly guard, explore it thoroughly.

Edit:
Oh, ah, regrets: 

1. Putting Harrowmont on the throne.  Disastrous for the dwarves and bad for the rest of Thedas, too. 

2. Letting Vaughn Kendalls go on my last playthrough, even though I swore I would never do that (even though it's metagaming).  To be fair, Soris never said what Kendalls did specifically: he just said he "stole something that was mine," so my HNF didn't know the extent of his depravity, but still, it left a really bad taste in my mouth!

Biggest regret would have to be putting Harrowmont on the throne, my first episode was full of choices I'd made that just went terribly wrong but that was the big one.

A close second is killing Connor.  It would have been a lot easier if he hadn't been so grown up about it.

My biggest regret was not being able to raise Leliana and kill her a few more times after I defiled the Urn of Sacred ashes (or at least take a trophy to decorate the camp).



Other than that, putting Harrowmont on the throne ranks pretty high. Picking the Templars over the Mages was another one I regretted.

My biggest regret was doing the ritual with Morrigan and forcing Alistair to sleep with her. While I was romancing at the time, my PC had never actually slept with Alistair at that point and so.. the first woman he ends up with is Morrigan. I felt so BAD after that, had to go back to a much earlier save file to rectify it, cause I figure he isn't going to EVER want to sleep with my PC in the future after that experience :/

Not murdering Loghain in his tent like the treacherous dog he is whilst in the camp before the battle of Ostagar ( just think how many lives could have been saved if I took command of his army and assisted the king when he needed it ) The blight would have been ended there and then and the rest of the game you could spend sitting on sunny shores drinking tequila and romancing lol

My first play-through was with my Dalish elf. I missed a lot of things with her, but two of them make me feel really bad. First, I missed Valena, the blacksmith's daughter, in Redcliffe Castle. Totally didn't even see her room. I went back into Redcliffe last night, as I'm finishing up this character's canon ending after playing with a lot of others, and he had hung himself. :-( Argh, should have explored more!



Second, I missed Deygan, the injured Dalish in the Brecilian forest. Um, Dalish elf, you're supposed to be skilled in wandering through the forest! I feel bad that he died in that game, but at least he hasn't in my subsequent games (though my blood mage will probably leave him for dead...ugh. He's such a jerk. :-p)
