I have no idea what yall are talking about. The endings were great.

I don't think you understood morrigan if you actually thought you would live happily ever after with her.

Herbalistic fertility methods? Witchcraft? Or maybe she sensed my dude's super sperm? What happens if you roll a female does anyone know?

She asks you to convince the other male warden to have sex with her.

She wants you to convince Alistair to do it.

Or maybe Loghain if you spared him

 

[ssmarine]

aaaahhhhh...... I see. Thanx guys, Id prolly never roll a female so I was just curious what would happen.

 

[Habelo]

I have to agree.

Spoiler

Especially the whole thing with Morrigan - "Oh yeah i really love you but if i can't have me demon baby then i'll just leave for no reason. And if i do get the baby then i'll also leave and not tell you why. Bahahha."

Then there's the Landsmeet. I mean, why not just skip the whole "gathering support" part and simply go straight to the duel part and whip the zombie guy's ass? Everything will be decided by that stupid duel anyway, regardless of what you do, so why bother with the other crap.

The best ending seems to be one where the PC dies, otherwise it's all "oh hi doods imma go roaming/stay here and... govern... things". I wonder if they could have possibly have made it any more anti-climactic.
ME endings weren't all that special either, but to me they seemed quite a bit better. I mean, some text stating that dwarves/mages/elves "do some stuff" is... not exciting.

What? the ME ending was as epic as it could be..

So now i want to kill off redcliffe, (letting the village fend for its own). But i have no idea how i will actually do that. I declined to help but still night doesnt come. Do i have to walk like to denerim first and then come back to see any progression?

Or is there a ninja shortcut hidden somewhere to the castle?

Just head towards the world map exit in the village, Tomas will stop you and initiate a conversation saying that if you leave they probably won't be there when you return. Then just tell him to suck it and go to camp or something and return, they will be dead.

For me that's not the issue.

Spoiler

The issue is that everything about the sequel alludes to Morrigan having kids(see: Arl Foreshadow). Yet:

A) I never slept with her, not once. And Alistair thinks girls are icky so I find it hard to believe he did on a cold night at camp.

B) When it came to the final decision, I told her off, said I wasn't going to get Alistair, and she ran off into the night, never having had hot sexy time or being able to do her ritual.

So then here I go to do the right thing and sacrifice myself so that I don't unleash an Old God into the world, my life to preserve others and all that, and what does the epilogue say? Morrigan may be with child! Which to me sounds like bum storytelling. If they wanted to force you to bone her, or force Alistair, they could have. But giving the illusion of choice will be all the more of a slap in the face if her having a kid in the second one is any major plot point.

It's not the fact they want some things set in stone for a sequel, that's understandable from a storytelling perspective. It's the fact they give you an option that completely negates a potential forced premise of the sequel. Now, there's still a chance they don't make it a central point of the sequel, it just seems unlikely. What it seems like is they figure gamers couldn't resist sexy time and self-preservation, so they'll make up a lame excuse for those of us that did, such as Morrigan went and boned the older Grey Warden and somehow snuck into the fort while you were killing the dragon.

Personally I feel she wasn't pregnant but merely had become fat and depressed because her goals weren't achieved.

I didn't sleep with her either, nor did Alistair, and I didn't get the impression she was pregnant.

It said something about her going over the mountains to some far off land and possibly getting into some close advisory role with some royalty.

Ya right, she probably team up with Leliana together in Orlesia (no woder when I invite Leliana to be with me she said she has unfinished business in Orlesia), and keep Wynne as the watch of king, ready to report any movement when player tries to find Morrigan...

Women are evil, I know that.

Nah in mine Leliana went to help organize pilgrimages to the Ashes.

Well when it comes to Leliana, depending if you sacrifice yourself and if you chose her as your lover then Leliana kills herself so doubt that
Wynne dies shortly after as well if I recall.

Spoiler

It probably depends how you did the Leliana's personal quest; I let her master lived so Leliana said she wants to finish that business (which I always wonder why I cannot accompany her). Wynne in my first run becomes Alissar's advisor and no after story for her; in fact, the story just says all my team get to whole world for plundering and never meet again (damned, all are loving only money and not friendship; waste my time to invite them to chase Morrigan).

Spoiler

Tbh though, I really hope they make an expansion concerning Morrigan and the supermega baby. I can easily think of a few really nice plot twists/dilemmas. My warrior char needs to pursue his misantropic love and find out what happened to his oldgod child! Hahahaha.

Spoiler

Consider the ending, I highly doubt the sequel would be anything relating about chasing Morrigan...

However, I find that it may be possible the child belongs to Alissar, and the sequel may be something that you play as that child and try to get the kingship once Alissar is dead; consider Alissar is an ultra gay it is highly possible he would not have a heir and die soon enough (he is a Grey Warden, which has only 30 years of life).

Spoiler

That would require you to have Alistair on the throne. He is in my game, but you could just as easily have Anora on the throne alone, both of them on the throne, or your character and Anora on the throne. Somehow I doubt that the next story will be based in Fereldan though, otherwise there'd be no point in having all the different nations.

Think Elder Scrolls, each game is based in a different 'region' and you hear about the exploits of your other characters. Dragon Age has the potential for the same thing, and I really doubt they'd go back to Fereldan because the landscape won't have had any significant changes, so it's the same dungeons all over again for different reasons.

Whoah, whoah, whoah... What?
A possibility that the child might belong to Alistair? I was under the impression that you were the only one who was doing it with Morrigan. Am I missing something here or did I just read your post the wrong way?

If you play as a female you have to convince Alistair to sleep with Morrigan instead of having hardcore lesbian sex which probably woulden't lead anywhere but still be enjoyable to watch.

Well, I play/played as female... You don't expect Dragon Age has technology to have female/female pregnacy??

Spoiler

Correction* Alistair yes? I doubt that Morrigan would raise the child to want petty Ferelden's throne, I'm thinking world domination, or worse. I'd guess that if they don't elaborate on the story in an expansion, then the Morrigan - Grey Warden child plot will be the canon of the sequel. My 2 pennies are that either the old god gets corrupted, or some other plot concerning Flemeth trying to possess the child.
