I'm not really surprised. There too much money to be made by bringing her back. And when it boils down to it, that's what Bioware is trying to do, make more money. That's not a bad thing, if they didn't they would go out of business.
She may not be important to the plot in the future, but that really doesn't matter. As long as she's back for more than 2 minutes.
Yeah, with Witch Hunt I think BioWare knows that people want resolution to Morrigan's story and her plans. Question is whether they actually ever provide it or if they simply keep trying ti milk it for as long as possible. I think Witch Hunt already pissed people off in not actually doing much with Morrigan's story so I'd hope when she returns its more than a 5 minute cameo.

I'll probably be shot for this but what kind of consequences do you want to see happen for the God Baby? I would've started a thread of my own but I didn't wish to clutter these boards and this is probably the most relevant thread. *cowers*
Depends on what it is Morrigan has planned, what Flemeth is up to and what this big "change" is. At the very least I hope DA2 provides some sort of clear foundation where by the end we can maybe see some the pieces coming together with Flemeth/Morrigan/OGB and whatever else. As for the OGB in particular, I think consequences for it depends on what sort of role it plays in the story. Morrigan says in Witch Hunt that its a herald for the change to come- does that somehow tie in to the Chantry's collapse in DA2? I think it depends on how much resources BioWare is willing to allocate to something, which unless the work around the "no canon" approach, might not be there in people's game.
That said, since you've got the possibility for either the OGB or just a regular baby with Morrigan, I could see it where maybe by default Morrigan has a normal child too and for the OGB, simply have the normal child trained as a regular mage maybe whileyou simply add more dialogue and stuff for an OGB- so its kind of 2 versions of the same character.
As far as consequences go, if you did the DR I'd like to see the OGB play a major role in whatever it is to come. If they simply marginalize it as some minor thing, that would very much irk me considering BioWare is trying to say your choices matter and all that. I'd guess alot depends on when in the future DA3 takes place too- is the OGB still an adolescent or a kid or has time passed and he's an adult now? Hard to know what kind of consequences without knowing how much of a role BioWare has in store.
But, if say the OGB is a teenager or something in DA3, I always thought it would be neat if, given the Chantry's collapse, maybe the OGB comes on the scene and starts going around all prophet/Jesus like, performing miracles and the like. Then you've got some people truly believing he's Urthemiel reborn while the maker has abandoned them, while you've got other people thinking he's just a loony mage with delusions of grandeur. Basically have it set up in such a way that its maybe not entirely clear to the player- is he really Divine or is that just what people want to think?
But, even with the no-canon approach, considering how BioWare is handling Bethany/Carver does give me hope taht maybe they're not quite so averse to branching storylines, as even there you've got a situation where from the get go they're blocking off content that would be impossible to see in one playthrough. ALthough who knows how significant that actually is.

The fact that there are 12 (?!) different endings in DA2 makes me believe that our chances of seeing Hawke again are slim at best. Even if they don't kill him/her off in any of those endings, the world state should be so different that it's practicaly impossible to have him/her return in a way that works for everyone.
I don't know about that- the fact that Darrah mentioned 6 "endings" and then quickly doubled that to 12, plus the whole having to decide between 2 factions, makes it seem like maybe you have a couple major variables that can be twisted several different ways, not unlike Origins. The 12 different endings is likely something like Origins where maybe the ruler of Ferelden, the Dark Ritual and who killed the AD are your big choices which can technically end in a bunch of variations. Kind of like how they could say there are dozens of endings in Origins, even though you can boil them down pretty easily.

Personally, I can't see them bringing back the Warden wothout either making it optional (which can't happen when you have VO) or dropping the whole "no canon" thing and negating the US ending.
Well, I don't know- certainly I'm not optimistic but even with the whole "every story is about Thedas" approach, depending on what the "change" is and how things are set up for Morrigan's return in the future, I could see the Grey Wardens showing up again. So I could imagine a scenario where maybe the PC of some future game is a Warden- maybe they give you the choice in whether thats the Hero of Ferelden or the Orlesian or some new one.
