Throughout the three 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dragon Age games, there are dozens of choices players must make. Some are as simple as harvest this herb or don't; but others tax gamer emotions far, far more. Anyone who has played any of the games instantly conjured at least three choices in their head just now.
Though players can revisit these choices in the , the Keep only captures a ♐smal🀅l fraction of what these choices really cost.
From saving Branka or the Anvil to deciding who rules Orlais, Dragon Age puts people in difficult spots again and again. That's one aspect that enhances the games' replayability so much. But which choices stick with gamers the most throughout the Dragon Age franchise?
Updated on August 20, 2021, by Juliet Childers: News about DA4 developments continues to trickle in, but fans are rabid for more lore and more stories from the franchise. In honor of TG's Dragon Age week, let's take a look at yet more of the series' most difficult decisions that fans still aren't sure about even after making the same decision 12 times.
15 ꦅ We Need To Talk About Connor
Fans of the series will remember the epically tragic Arl of Redcliffe quest from Origins. Not o𓆏nly do Darkspawn constantly assault the town, but there are also many quests 🌱for the townsfolk in addition to the main quest involving the Arl and his Mage son Connor.
Fun fact: Connor gets possessed thanks to his Mage tutor who happens to be Jowan — the൲ blood Mage from the Circle Tower, and Jowan poiso🎃ned the Arl.
The Warden must decide how to approach the delicate situation since so many people could die. The Arl is fighting poison, Connor is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:possessed by a Desire Demon, the townspeople are beset by Darkspawn; it might seem unwinnable. But one of the five outcomes sees the Arl, Connor, and Lady Isolde (Connor's mum) all survive.
But the Warden could also just let the Desire Demon 🦹have C☂onnor or kill him, too.
14 🌺 Deciding Who Should Rule The Imperial Court Of Orlais
-2.jpg?q=50&fit=crop&w=825&dpr=1.5)
In one of the most intriguing, detective-like missions in the franchise, the Inquisitor completes quests that ultimately decide the fate of the royal Orlesian Court. While diplomacy-focused Empress Celene currently rules, her militaristic cousin and Grand Duke Gaspard de Chalons wants the throne for his own. Yet still, Celene's spurned Elven lover would see the Elves control a puppet government in Orlais that actually does good things for Elves.
The Inquisitor's actions and decisions all influence who comes out on top. If you gather the right evidence, however, you can make it so that all three of them must rule in an uneasy peace.
13 Should✱ The Warden Use The Dark Ritual? ꧟
Speaking of possessed children, we also need to talk about Kieran. Fans who followed their playthroughs all the way to Inquisition will recall that the Inquisitor can meet Morrigan's son. He may or may not have the soul of an Old God in him.
In Origins, the Warden can chᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚoose not to sacrifice themselves or Alistair to defeat the Arch Demon. Instead, one of them can lay with Morrigan toꦍ complete a "Dark Ritual" and create an Old God baby. Basically, the soul of the Arch Demon Urthemiel goes into the baby and saves the Warden who would be sacrificed during the killing blow.
Many playeဣrs delighted in making Alistair and Morrigan knock boots.
12 Cursed Werewolves Or A 🌃Guy Who Looks Like Solas?
That Dalish Elf on the left that looks suspiciously similar to Solas is Zathrian. And yes: that's a Werewolf next to him. For fans who may not have played Origins, there's a quest that involves a Dalish clan afflicted by a disease that turns 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Elves into Werewolves.
It turns out🧜 that Zathrian had abused the power of a forest spirit to take revenge on humans who attacked his children. He bound the spirit to a wolf and created the curse that keeps these Werewolves. As the Warden progresses in the "Nature of the Beast" quest, they must decide who to sid⛎e with or try to broker peace.
11 Should The I🔯nquisitor Make Criminal Mages Tranquil?
-2.jpg?q=50&fit=crop&w=825&dpr=1.5)
♉ Throughout Dragon Age: Inquisition, the player can make judgements on any captured criminals such as Erimond, Florianne, and a Chasind goat thrower. But, when it comes to the mages, the Inquisitor can choose the ultimate pౠunishment and make them Tranquil (taking away their connection to the Fade).
Mages in your party will aut꧂omatically disapprove of this while companions like Iron Bull and Cassandra might greatly approve. Deciding what to do all depends on the severity of the crime and whose approval you care most.
10 Should You Support Mages O🍸r Templars In Inquisition? 🐈
This is a general question you always ask yourself as the player in a Dragon Age title. After all, the main conflict 𒉰is not, in fact, dragons, but how maꦏgic should be regulated and magic users are treated. But with Inquisition, the choice is not just a moral one; it affects the entire game.
Here's a quick run down: the more interesting villain pops up if you choose the Templars and you can save one of the best tertiary characters ever: Ser Barris. However, the main mission if you choose the Mages include TIME MAGIC and you get to meet Dorian sooner.
Ultimately, it's just one more reason to play the game again and again (and again and again...)
9 Should The Hero Of Fereld🀅en Protect The Anvil Of The Void?
-2.jpg?q=50&fit=crop&w=825&dpr=1.5)
Typically, a device that creates war machines at the cost of living souls is treated as a bad thing, right? Well, in Dragon Age Origins, the player character has the opportunity to make just such a decision regarding Branka and the Anvil of the Void. A Dwarven Paragon once used this device to create war golems to fight off Darkspawn. But the willing sacrifices bℱecame unwilling prisoners who lost their lives to the Anvil.
Branka, a would-be Dwarven Paragon, seeks the Anvil in order to use it to improve Dwarven society somehow. The Hero of Ferelden must decide whether to side with Branka or Caridi𝓰n and whether or not to save or destroy the Anvil of the Void.
8 🍌 Should Hawke Save Or Kill Anders?
Every Dragon Age fan just heaᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚved a gargantuan sigh for this choice. It comes after the dopey and endearing introduction of Anders and Jusไtice in the Origins DLC Awakening. Anders is a mage/Grey Warden and Justice is a spirit of... well, Justice. But the events of the DLC result in Justice leaving the body he had inhabited. Where did it go?
Anders absorbed the spirit of course! Unfortunately for them both, Anders' anger against the Templars corrupted Justice into a spirit of revenge. He spends a decent amount of time in Dragon Age II keeping the spirit at bay until he commits an unthinkable act: blowing up a Chantry.
The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:endlessly quotable Hawke must then decide whether to kill or save this person they have become close to as a friend꧋ or a lover; someone who has worked ౠso hard for the people of Lowtown. It is heart-wrenching, to say the least.
7 Shoul🍰d The Warden Kill Leliana For The Urn?
This is another choice that some fans may not recall or know about. And yes, the Warden can choose to kill Leliana in the Ur🌱n of Sacred Ashes quest. Though this gets immediately retconned as Leliana🐲 appears in the subsequent games, the choice remains.
In summary, there's a cult hoarding this urn supposedly full of Andraste's ashes and a spirit (a dragon) protecting it. In order to unlock the Reaver specialization, the Warden must side with the Cult and spoil the urn with a vial of Andraste's blood. Leliana will vehemently oppose📖 this, forcing the Warden to kill her.
Wynne will also attack upon the spoilage, but the Warden just really needs that specia🔯lization, okay?
6 Should Hawke Save Or Sacrifice Isabela? ౠ
As one of the most interesting parts of Dragon Age II, the Arishok stil🌜l stands out as one of the best quasi♔-villains of the series. But in this quest called "Demands of the Qun," the teammate (Isabela) was the "bad guy".
She straight-up stol🦄e a sacred Qunari relic and wanted to sell it. So Hawke is presented with quite the dilemma: surrender Isabela to the Arishok for punishment or fight the Arishok to save her.
If the player ends up sacrificing Isabela, this betrayal makes Hawke dead to Isabela forever. Then the Qunari leave peacefully. In some instances, the Arishok will also offer Hawk🉐e a one-on-one duel as opposed to fighting all of the Qunari.
