the sooner u all realize that the useless cameos and references actually mattered very little across all dragon age games, the better this discourse would be. like...alistair or anora on the throne, the mages still get kicked out of redcliffe in dragon age inquisition, who cares if alistair was in a relationship with a mage warden? dalish elf warden asked for an elvhen homeland as a boon? yeah Solas never mentions that and changes nothing about Briala's elf rebellion in Orlais. Anders dead during the assault in Vigil's Keep? We'll just forget that happen and make a flimsy excuse in DA2 as who actually died. Don't even get me started on how abysmal the mage templar war was handled in DAI lmao.

but alright a warden alistair appears at the end of act 2 in dragon age 2 as a proof that you made him into a warden and hawke appears in DAI screaming about blood magic as a blood mage in a relationship with a blood mage. that's enough choices mattering.

#dragon age #this is a symptom of the way this series has been designed #it is not unique to datv the worldstate and keep lied to you all #like the series has been open about forcing a canon on your choices they see fit #flemeth anders and leliana always lives regardless of what you do #and goddamn i wished we'd stop having collective amnesia about dragon age choices mattering #bc this is the third goddamn game we had discourse about this #datv for how useless the 3 choices ultimately were did not lie to me with keep choices mattering #they didnt mention the divine? cute #back in my day the only criteria for the templars winning the mage templar war was for the inquisitor to ask for their help #who cares if i was pro mage throughout lol
