So, Dragon Age: Inquisitiondoes a decent job with connecting the three game universes and their shared characters here, and thank fucking god they choose to only mention the Dragon Age II cast (sans Hawke and Varric).ĭragon Age: Inquisition includes almost a dozen unique open-world areas, but most of them are either deserts or snowy mountains. There is even a War Table operation that has to do with the Warden Commander ( Origin‘s protagonist), as long as they lived.
And yes, Hawke DOES make an eventual appearance (which you can customize) in the game, and using Dragon Age Keep (the World Save Editor/Exporter), you can choose whether or not Hawke was male or female, who they romanced, who they supported, blah blah blah.
Many characters featured in previous Dragon Age games make a return, including many members of the Inquisition’s Inner Circle themselves. Of course, right afterwards the organization is marked as heretics by the Chantry and every important power in the Orlais-Fereldan area refuse an audience with them. In keeping with the recently killed Divine’s last request, Cassandra and Leliana officially form the new Inquisition, roping the player character, now referred to as the Herald of Andraste, into it. Cue joke on how the “Mark of Andraste” is just a green light effect.Īlthough the player successfully closes the Breach by the end of the prologue with the assistance of returning characters Cassandra Pentaghast, Varric Tethras, Leliana, and new addition, Solas, more of these demon spewing rifts similar to the breach have continued to open up.
