The Truth Behind Solas's Plan in Dragon Age | Secrets of the Dread Wolf 

Do you guys think that Solas will succeed in his attempts to destroy the very veil, leaving Thedas in ruins, potentially waking two blights? Let's discuss!

*cough* Abelas companion *cough*

I think there's going to be more drama with the wardens as well. It mentioned briefly in the epilogue that communications with Weisshaupt had stopped.

Mind you that Solas doesn't consider elves from the modern day to be his people. His people died when he created the veil. I believe the goal was to return himself to before the fade was created and stop the action from occurring. We've seen already that time travel is possible with the whole trip to the future.

To be quite honest, whatever happens, I don't want a boss fight with Solas. I want him to remain incredibly powerful. We'd be fighting a creature who quite literally created the Viel. He altered the entire world. It's difficult to imagine such power, and I honestly don't want my hero to reach such a strength. It would lessen the feeling of total strength Solas has, which I'm simply not keen on. If anything, I want a battle of wits to ensue between us and Solas, as we try to both outmaneuver him as well as persuade him out of his disastrous plan. Great video, mate. You have yourself a new subscriber.

Re playing through all the DA and I hear Merrill say "How did sundermount get its name, its not Elven is it?." I'm here just thinking to myself.... Sundermount... sunder.... sunder the fade.......... noooo it can't be... Quick check on DAwiki. (Sundermount is the tallest mountain of Vimmark and has a fearsome reputation. Legend says it was the site of a vicious battle where the ancient Tevinter and the elves of Arlathan unleashed horrors into the waking world.) Or can it...

I think solas will succed i just dont see we'll be able to stop him i mean he turned all those qunari into stone with a blink of a eye. How we going fight someone that powerful?

I'm no fan of Tevinter, but I'd side with Archdemons over the Qun

I believe Solas is the Maker. Can't wait for the chantry to realize they worship an Elf, who doesn't want to be a god.

I am sorry if this has been expressed before, I am new to the channel but I love your videos! Anyway, I believe Mythal is still very much alive. I believe she pushes her soul through the Eluvian right before Solas kills her. (It's either hers or the old god she took from Keiren. I believe its hers and since I dont remember speaking to Morrigan after that piece, I believe Morrigan/Mythal will be the main force for the last game. If not this next one.) But the biggest clue is when Solas says "I am so sorry." and she replies "I am sorry as well, old friend." She has a plan and she is apologizing to Solas because her plan will trump his and probably destroy him. Might I also mention that while Solas slept, Mythal was awake, planning. She has had all this time to get back at her fellow Evanuris, fix Solas's vast mistake and heal the world. I also think Mythal WAS Andraste. I think she and the girl Andraste did what they could to heal the world back then, and of course her efforts were perverted, their intent destroyed. Look how often she has tried to help as Flemeth and still she is feared.

I just want blood magic back...

One of the Evanuris as a companion would be so cool. My vote would go to Dirthamen for his vast knowledge and his ravens Fear and Deceit or Falon'Din for his power over death. I can't see that all seven of them killed Mythal. I would think Andruil, Ghil'anain and Elgar'nan would be the most likely suspects as they would have most motive. I would love a game where Solas succeeds in destroying the veil. So much potential for incredible landscapes.

I hope solas brings the veil down. It would be sooo cool to see the elven pantheon and everything else. TEAM SOLAS!!!!

I think those elven magic artifacts solas has you activate all the way through inquisition will have a part in him bringing down the veil. Notice he says they will help strengthen the veil but really I never noticed any difference in their use. What if you just activated enough artifacts that will aid solas in bringing the veil down all over thedas? Plus notice there isnt one in skyhold? I think he isnt completely evil and hoping the inquisitor stays in skyhold they will actually remain as safe as possible. Plus how you chose to build your skyhold may come into play as to what will happen to inqy there. Did you build it for battle and worship? Or for magic and healing? We may hear while we are fighting against the slave masters of teventer and building a new crew to either take down solas or help our friend solas, that our inqy skyhold is a place many are flocking to for some kind of safety cuz the rest of thedas is being overrun by everything that comes out of the veil.Or maybe itll be a place where solas runs to after he brings down the veil and releases the gods and they come hunting him and his plans seem to fall short yet again. Remember none of solas well thought out plans ever pan out the way he wants them to and that may be how we save our friend solas or let him die in his making...soooo many ways this could go.

Bioware's been painfully vague about why exactly Flemeth wanted the Dark Ritual performed in the first place; Morrigan wouldn't even tell a romanced HoF what the endgame was. Maybe given the end of DA:I it ties into Solas' plan somehow.

Here's the thing about something in DAI. Solas has us active the elven artifacts that help strengthen the veil. Here's the thing though. The veil didn't exist in the time of the ancient elf's. So what the hell did he have us active?!

If the old gods were awakened by the loss of the veil then that wouldn't be a Blight, because they woudn't rise corrupted by the Darkspawn.

I think it would be cool if Solas inadvertently (whether he's interrupted in a ritual, or the veil is irreversible) causes the final blight with 2 arch demons by the end of DA4. And in DA5 the dragon age ends and the new age is named based on your choices. Say the case is fully separated from Thades the age could be called Tranquil age. Another could be Magic age, reunion age, heretical age, or if the chantry is destroyed the ages end

I think the Veil needs to be destroyed. No matter what, it simply cannot be healthy for Thedas to have that imposed on it. So if I have a choice I will help Solas even though he will probably still need to be stopped afterwards. However, I think he basically is on a one-way trip here in his mind, restore things or die trying, because he didn't try enough before and things with Mythal. He's going to go full Anders - which I dread, because you know.

I just hope Dragon Age continues, after the _Dragon Age_ ... either with prequels or sequels taking place in the next age.

after all the things the humans have done to the elves i feel like joining solas

I want Solas to win.

I don't want Dragon Age as a series to end for good, I do want them to end the Dragon Age at Dragon Age 5, but I would like to experience a new Age as well, I just think it would be kool!

I just... Need to know what happens to Flemeth. She can't be gone. You don't kill Flemeth, she always comes back. Always.

What about joining Solas? My inquisitor would've

I fully support Solas in his plan to restore the world. People say he is trying to destroy the world, but he is actually trying to fix it.

This has potential to be an Epic game! I want to see some of our old party mates!

Small problem: The dwarves will be fine. They're empire existed in the time of the elven (btw that is a corruption of the word of Solas' people for an insult that seems to translate into something like "outcast" and "scum") empire's height. There is also the factor that the golden city was the creation of the "elven gods" and booby trapped by Solas, it was a combination of that and the blood magic (mostly using elven sacrifices) that the Magisters used to physically enter it that caused the Blight in the first place...if Solas breaks the curse he placed there it might undo the Blight entirely, though that doesn't prevent the dragon Old Gods from returning...though they may have a connection to the elven gods given the murals you find.

All I want is my next character to be something with an old God or something along those lines in his family bloodline. It's time for this one to show my hawke and Inquisitor what true power is 💪

I'm SO EXCITED to see what happens when the veil is destroyed. I think it is inevitable at this point - will be VERY disappointed if Solas does not achieve this in the next game.

I'm honestly torn...on the one hand, Thedas is crap all around, but on the other hand it still has so much potential if people like the Warden, Hawke, and the Inquisitor (assuming they ultimately aim for a better world) were to guide Thedas.

I just Cullen to be safe '-'

I like your videos, but thank you for covering the topic I consider most important finally

Love the Dragon Age coverage! Been doing the same with CC. Keep it up.

I think Solas will succeed, primarily because of Sandal's prophecy; to me, that just sounds waaaay too much in line with Solas' goal to not be significant. However, I think that destroying the Veil will end up giving *everyone* magic, and end up being a great equalizer just in time for our big bads to show up.

I want a dragon age game that takes place before the veil but solas makes the veil in Middle of the game

I wanna romance Varic❤❤❤

But the so-called "Golden City" is actually the great city of Arlathan right? Soooo that would make Solas is the maker!

Yes - OMG Yes - a war against the Maker!! Sign me up!! Now THIS is a story I could die for.

Solas is a good character yes, but I really dislike that they needed a dlc to do that. In vanilla he was just a jerk to everyone who did not agree with him on everything. On his plans: well getting rid of the veil is certainly a major event, but indeed what about those elves jerks he imprisoned in the fade to begin with? Even if they are insane that might even make things worse, since crazy people are hard to predict. It is not just that the Qunari are mad at Solas, they despise magic to begin with. So letting loose some super powerfull mages sounds like something they would have a major problem with. At the very least I hope they give more background to the character you are playing. Allmost all the way through Inquisition I was thinking: "So... the dude(ette) I am playing, who even is that?" It makes it harder to roleplay, since it does not in any porvide a perspective resulting from upbringing like we had in Origins

I love this video! I just played through Trespasser now, and it's awesome to me that someone is making new content for Dragon age fans even though this year we are kind of in a dry spell of new Dragon age stuff from Bioware. I think that the elves aren't the only ones with relationships with the Fade. Obviously the first Tevinter attempt to breach the veil was a disaster. But it does make me wonder what kind of to Tevinter research, lore, even their own gods, we will see in Dragon Age 4. Especially because the impression that I got both from reading The Masked Empire and from things said in the game was that even though great magics were used to build an empire, the average elf was no more a great mage then the average human is now. Further, the elves had a huge empire, but they certainly didn't have the entire world. Humans came from somewhere, we know they arrived in southern Thedas around the same time as Solas created the veil, but we also know that was a coincidence. We don't know what great human empires might have existed off our known map before the Veil went up. Or, what great powers they might have drawn from the Fade. For that matter, The Qunari came south fleeing another great empire with its own powers due to some unspecified catastrophe (The Veil?). And we know from The Descent that it is at least possible in one case for Lyrium to interact with a dwarf to grant magical powers. In summary, I think you are absolutely right that we will have to address Solas's desire to rip down the Veil. But I think that the answer is going to be a merging of information, secrets, and ancient powers from multiple races and empires to define a new relationship between all powers and the Fade. My theory anyway :)

I just want the Hero of ferelden back

How great will it be to play a mage in Tevinter!! Hopefully there's a bloodmage specialization.

One day the magic return all of it and all will see him for what he is. Sounds like to me him tearing down the veil isnt even a debatable subject.

My opinion is that not everything needs to be revealed. Mysteries are what keep the series interesting, we don't need to know whether the Maker is real or not - it's a big part of faith, as any religion is. Beyond that I don't have too much thought on the matter, I like to just wait and see what happens. I'm not too sure about 5 being an all-out war based on the events, as that would tie 4 and 5 together too closely. I feel like each game has always been their own story and setting, without being direct sequels to the games before them. This is why I believe there's going to be something else that will overshadow Solas as the next game's primary antagonist. Great video anyway, it really put Solas' intentions and some other things in perspective that I didn't fully understand before, so thank you. (:

Solas just wants to Make Elvenkind Great Again.

Whatever happens I just want my inquisitor to have a happy ending w Solas bc I think we need that

So let me get this straight, is the Veil the bridge between the Fade and reality? If the Veil is destroyed and that means everything from the Fade will appear in reality, doesn’t that mean Corypheus will be back since the Inquisitor banished him there?

I agree that they are heading towards a new age, even Flemeth mentions the Inquisitor as a herald of a new age. I know this is about a month old but recently Mark Durrah said that dragon age 4 is not confirmed and there is talk of a spin off. Im hoping this is misdirection. When I waited for Inquisition to arrive i googled every day Dragon Age 3 thinking that would be the name, maybe that will happen with DA4 it will be given a name like Inquisition? Im going to be very disappointed if they go straight to a spin off or tactics based game after Trespassers cliffhanger. If they do then they have fallen into the Andromeda trap and it might really damage the series badly. Im not saying dont make a spin off but they need to deal with the trespasser ending fist. He also tweeted something about trespasser being canon so fingers crossed :)

I have been thinking alot about how Solas would be ripping the veil down and I believe he will be using the elven artifacts the Inquisitor has been activating all over Thedus as a vehicle to do so. That is my theory. I will be looking forward to Dragon age 4 to see if this does turn out to be the case. I have been a fan of Dragon age since the beginning. I love the continuity of the franchise.

What if we have to play as an elf helping Solas in the next game

8:50 - You forgot to include The Architect, who appeared in the first Dragon Age DLC. It's pretty obvious that he too was a magister, just like Corypheus.

Maybe in Dragon Age 4 you will be able to choose which side you will be at the very beginning. Or what is the origin as it was in Dragon Age Origins. It would be nice if the hero could be decided, in case of people, whether he came from Tewinter or from another place. Maybe we will help Solas in his plan from the very beginning. I think that such an assumption would be nice. Fight against all previous heroes. Be their main opponent after Solas. Anyway, I just can not wait for the next part.

What I think is that Solas is not too different than Cory was. Both wanted to bring back their world no matter the cost. Cory wanted to bring back ancient Tevinter while Solas wants to bring back the power of the elves which he said wasn't too different from Tevinter (Solas Dorian party banter). To me if they have him as the bad guy in the next game it would be too much like a remake of Inquisition. I personally would like a new blight. Fighting the blight in Origins was one of the things I enjoy and why my husband and I still play Origins after all these years. Id also like to have more Qunari interaction in the next game and I agree seeing Sten would be a highlight for us in the next game. Great video! keep it up!

I really doubt that's the end of mythal or flemmeth.It wouldn't be the first time she came back after to mind F everyone. If there's even a chance of hope for the world we know we would prob need her help or insights.

i want them to do something with the superman Easter egg from origins in dragon age 4 mybe he could be one of the new player characters dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/The_Crater

Hated that you can't side with the elves on the veil issue

I personally feel like it would be wasted potential for a future game after dragon age 4 to awaken both archdemons. Only one is needed for now

To me Solas wants to bring back the Elven civilization to its original rule while trying to genocide the Qunari and thwart Tevinter of it's capital and magisters, Which still makes me want to stop him

Just hope I can be a female elf in DA4 I love the elves

Well, in dragon age 4 the most important thing to me is being able to play with my inquisitor character again. I think a new hero would be a huge mistake.

I want to join Solas thou. I would love to help him reset the world. Hope this can be a choice.

I hope the Architect returns in the next game, or that we see at least one of the other Magisters. As for new blights, if you spare the Architect in Awakening he severs the Darkspawn connection to The Old Gods.

I'll help Solas destroy veil as we raise our beautiful egg headed babies together.

I think there is a typo in the title, it should read "scheme."

At 6:04 you mentioned two orbs however in the conversation with Solas after Haven's destruction Solas mentions foci (aka multiple) so it's possible that there are more than two! Seeing the nature of the Evanuris I doubt that they would have let Fen'Harel have such a powerful artifact without having something for themselves as well. Just a thought.

I don't get one thing about this apocalypse: when the veil is destroyed why will the dwarves,humans and Qunari be unable to live in the same world; is it because the elves will simply be so powerful they will enslave or slaughter them or is it because the destruction of the veil will cause this world to be destroyed or damaged. Can someone help, I haven't played inquisition in about a year, I need to run through it again before DA4

Not on my watch... Never trusted the guy, never liked him either.. and after trespasser.. i was right. So i believe that i am going to stuff that piss-ant back in whatever whole he crawled out off.. and save the world... Again.

Two blights at once....dear god.

Ugh. There were so many IMPORTANT pieces of the lore behind Solas that missed in this.

What Spezialisation does your Inquisitor have in the video? And what sword are you using? Ps: Nice Video. I love the Dragon Age Lor. Thumb up

5 years on and no new game, fucking blows.

I mean, what Solas wants to do is genocide of the Dwarves, Humans, Qunari, modern elves (Dalish and city elves likely won't survive either) and all the other creatures. What he wants do do is far worse than anything the humans have done to subject the elves. I understand why he's doing what he wants to do, but it is an evil thing and he needs to die. Solas was a racist asshole throughout my playthrough and i relished punching him in the face. Fucking fight me.

Solas is like Hermes, the Coyote, or Loki - the Trickster personality - who conceals his plans, and his motives. He clearly did throughout the main campaign of Inquisition, the snag in his plan: was the destruction of the Orb when Corypheus fell at the hands of the Inquisitor and his/her companions. Solas will either succeed in bringing the end of the Dragon Age, or be stopped by the next protagonist and his/her companions in the lands of Tevinter and the Imperium.

I feel like Fenris is gonna show up and say fuck you to Solas and rip his heart out. Even though he is one of the most hated companions.

I hope they can somehow follow Mass Effect 3's epic opening in maybe the final game but make a way better ending where choices from Dragon Age origins made an actual impact in shaping the ending.

There are two old gods but that doesn't mean that they will get infected by the blight. There is a good chance that maybe,if the other orb is also lost that Solas might steal the power of the old gods to give him enough power to tear down the veil. Also, lets not forget about Sandal...he definitely has an old god soul in him...or maybe the soul of a titan? Maybe he will be brought back and have a major role in the next game or maybe Valta will play a major role. We might be seeing more of the titans or of those whom are connected to them. After all, isn't it best to use an ancient powerful being to stop another one?

I think the inquisitor will need another person with as much power as Solas (your new protagonist) like some kind of strange gone wrong experiment - as they are in Tevinter, magic and all. Who knows, just someone with alot of power(like a god). But that depends on if you want him dead or trying to stop him either way the inquisitor needs a powerful person, -your character in DA4. I dunno it's just an idea Edit : i can just imagine the opening scene to your character, in a fight and using his/her powers and word spreads of this power, which interested the inquisitor and asked your powerful, god like, strange character to help them destroy or save Solas.

i shall have to help my true love make our race strong again my true love solas

I think that Solas is going to definitely carry out his plan, because I don't see him as a flat out villain. I don't think that we will get that choice to stop or aid him, we will just simply have to bare witness to it. I want to believe that after the veil has been brought down, the darkspawn will find only one old god soul, bringing about another blight.

I remeber hearing that Solas's people are actually the Spirits that you encounter. And they were ripped from their bodys when the fade was created

We have to save Solas from himself he must see that the world is goin on to destroy it and create a new one isnt the answer we have to improve the world not destroy it.

Do you think Samson or Alexius or the people that the Inquisitor judge are going to be up in Dragon Age 4

Interesting theory about Sten but since they seem to change the look of the Qunari every game he wouldn't look like the sten we know

Solas will prevail

1. I don't think demonic possession didn't exist before. However, I think managing contacts with spirits and demons used to be part of let's say the regular curriculum of anyone's education. Magic used to be present in everything, even physical combat (ie the arcane warriors were who nowadays are pure tanks and dps) so because there was no condemnation and repression, it was easier to come to terms with spirits and harder to get possessed because of lack of wisdom or awareness. I think however, that demons like pride, desire etc are fundamental forces representative of human/elf feelings, so they were always there. People were just wiser not to make bargains with them. Remember the party dialogue that Solas has with Vivienne? he condemns the circle and their way of dealing with possession. Instead he says, someone should be appointed to mercilessly kill those mages that were weak enough to be possessed and not handle their skill. He speaks with authority that makes me think in his past these kind of killings were regular and he took parts in them. In Arlathan, a person who got easily possessed or trusted demons was probably considered a weakling, a novice, an amateur, a weak soul. Basically someone incompetent who can't deal with something obvious, since demons are just a manifestation of fundamental twisted emotions we all have. Thus, it's like killing only the weakest chain link and probably used to be considered routine population thinning. So to sum up, I don't think demon possession is only caused by the veil, but because spirits and demons are more desperate to join the other side of the veil, since it is not a natural structure after all, plus people refuse their connection to the fade and lack awareness or wisdom concerning it, it invites possession more, out of fear. Basically, it just made possession a much bigger problem, where it used to be marginally managed. Thus, your point two. 2. As for the archdemons, I wonder. Don't forget Solas created the veil not only to avenge Mythal. He didn't do it out of some vengeful impulse. It was more of a result of observing, how the expanded elven world has declined - evanuris becoming murderous, raging egomaniacs who were going too far in everything they did for the sake of their power. Killing Mythal was just the last drop. Remember the story of Falon'din Solas tells in the temple of Mythal - Falon'din's self obsession went to the point where he would kill everyone who wouldn't worship him, and I believe the rest of the pantheon was no better. I wonder if the taint, archdemons, all this related business wasn't what the Evanuris planned to unleash on a great scale. Solas litterally says "every alternative than creating the veil was worse". Which means the Evanuris were destructive to the world with something they planned that he just felt he had to stop. And I don't think it was their regular mass-murdering for the sake of power and worship either. At this stage, Solas was working perfectly fine as Fen'Harel. For him to go to the next level, and perform an action potentially destructive not only to his enemies, but even his own followers, was a desperate last resort action. So that leads me to believe that the Evanuris wanted to release something even worse into the world. This something could have been the taint, the archdemon, in whatever form that existed back at the time. I think the reason blights ravage Thedas, is because while Solas contained the Evanuris to an extent, he didn't really get rid of them since "they don't die so easily" as he himself said. So they still try to control the world in their tainted form, as archdemons maybe. I guess Solas's actions tainted them even further, since they seem to have nothing but revenge on their minds now, plus the veil must have made things worse, but it happened for a reason in the first place. If the veil is destroyed, they will simply be unleashed on Thedas with forces incomparable to what we have seen so far. So it will be like a super turbo blight lmao 3. We don't know if Qunari existed back at the time. Iron Bull had a theory that they're mutants created with dragon blood. That might have occurred after the prime of Arlathan. 4. It is still unclear what was the status of humans in the days of elves ruling. After all, humans can be mages as well. So they also had a connection to the fade. Even if the veil was taken down, who says human mages wouldn't be as strong as elven mages? Who says those humans who accepted a connection to the fade couldn't be on par with the other elven warriors? If elves were the only mages in Thedas, that would make sense, but it does not. We don't have any info on how racial distinctions matter in this context. Elves were wiped out and subdued because all of their organised leadership was gone. Most of those left were slaves, used to serving the Evanuris. So they were the chain end of their civilisation. No wonder they have been enslaved and conquered, because that's what happens to any group without organised leadership. I think however they may have relied on the fade more in their abilities. Then again, humas seem to connect with the fade in a similar way, so they should have access to the same things. Not enough info on that. 5. I don't think Solas wants to rule or be "on top" of the other gods. Just punishment for their actions, yes. Especially if they are as deformed and tainted as we saw darkspawn to be, then they need to be wiped out for everyone's good, elven or human. But Solas is the first person who understands where it leads, when one individual claims too much power. I guess he would definitely try to restore Mythal in some way (through Morrigan I imagine) but I don't think he wants pure, unquestionable rulership. He will of course have to guide the elves at the beginning, help them reconnect to who they are, but he has shown to prefer to operate from the shadows. Empowerment of the elven race, to exist equally amongst humans, wouldn't be a bad thing, given how elves are outcasts and slaves nowadays. 6. I also don't see all dead antagonists massively returning. Fade adds another dimension to existence, old elves had a hard time dying, but death is still death. Especially since we heard nothing about humans or dwarves being immortal. There will be plenty of new antagonists to keep us busy.

HALT! If the magic comes back, then other races (except maybe - just maybe - the dwarfs, then again: They die if you bombard them with enough of it, so they might also gain magical abilities if all the magic returns!) can use it as well, so no: The Elfs would NOT be unstoppable, hell they would have to RE-LEARN all of their abilities and that would take years! Magic isn't just "I want this to be" and it happens, no magic requires knowledge and disciplin to effectively use! Also: No, the Inquisition isn't his scheme! Joining and supporting it is! I bet he DIDN'T MINDCONTROL the Divine!

At the end solas look depress as hell when he was describing what he is explaining what he is doing Solas: :(( Me: NO FAM IM SUPPOSED TO BE SAD NOT YOU AHH WAIT FOR THE NEXT GAME ILL MAKE SURE ILL GET MY EQUIPMENT BACK FROM YOU

hi! Fem/Elf here! of course i romanced the egghead and i was a little disappointed that our love did not have a happy ending :'( It would have been pure joy to my heart if he took quizzy with him so we could change the world together. Sadly that did not happend.. I would not mind to continue playing as the inquisitor or at least have her in my party. Depending on the choice made in trespasser she would be with me or against me (Love for Solas is too strong). I think that he could succeed at destroying the veil and the whole unleasing the blight? yes it would not be impossible, maybe we'll play as a grey warden, depending on if you banished them or not. SO MANY POSABILITIES!

Can someone explain how humans (and dwarves and *Qunari*) were living before the Veil? I still can't wrap my head around it. I can see the elves living in a world surrounded by magic and no barrier to spirits, but what would the other races have done? And why don't the other races have any memory of such a time?

Bioware top brass, Particularly the DA team leaders (I can't quite remember who now) said that you won't be seeing many if any at all of the previous protagonists in 4. So I don't think we'll be seeing any really, besides maybe the Inquisitor, but if I remember correctly (I haven't played DA:I in a while so forgive me if I'm wrong) but Flemeth/Mythal doesn't take the old god soul from the son of the Hero of Fereldan and Morrigan's son in a specific circumstance (I think you need to become bonded to her instead of Morrigan and play your cards nigh god-like). Which means that there is this insanely powerful god child still running about trying to figure out their powers, so maybe DA 4 isn't a direct sequel, maybe it will take place a few years or however long it takes for this Old God Child to mature and become a rival to Solas and the Evanuris? Possibly by developing his skills and unlocking these abilities of an Old God that have so far gone unknown besides their corrupted forms ability to control the Darkspawn, I know it's highly unlikely and probably just the foolish dreams of an avid fan wanting to be able to smash Solas in the face and then destroy the old gods and Darkspawn for good and see my little boy save his big burly Arcane Warrior of a Dad from the tainted Darkspawn blight, but yeah, just some food for thought.

some villains may return from death & help the MC like Knight commander for example + ppl the previous MC's had to kill to reach hes or hers coal, that scenario comes if vale gets destroyed, all out war, they come for redemption one last time from death but if they want to end the series with next game then MC will be able to stop solas in time, hes last boss don't forget Morrigans god child :)

This is how great evil char is born! I would not let him do so, but I understand him, still killing whole world just to make your people have it again is no better than what humans did to elves to say the least...

I think something akin to mass effect 3 synthetic ending will be avaiable. Inquisitor will sacrifice him/herself and while the veil will be lifted from the world elves will regain their former glory , demonic possesions will cease , human , elves , qunari mages will become more powerful , dwarvers will become connected to the faid once more and there will be peace. And (hopefully) dark spawn will be completely destroyed , old gods will be safe and Chantry will be completely demolished. Hopefully. Because for all we know that Golden city is actually build by Avenuris. 'Maker' was probably Avenuris and Andraste was like Tavinter says just a human mage whose had screwed by Avenuris disguise themselves as 'Maker'.

Hmm, I don't think we will experience the destruction of the Veil. It would be so huuuge plot thing, that I don't believe tehy could handle it properly. Remeber what the did to the mage templar conflict? Or maybe even the whole story of Inquisition. tearing down Veil would cause so much things, demons and spirits everywhere, just like in inquisition with that tear in the Veil, but in much bigger scale. If it would somehow free the elven "gods" as well, that would be chaos, or even old gods/archdemons? nope, they wouldn't handle it properly. What I could get behind is the part with siding either with Qunari or Tevinter against Solas and his crazy plan to tear donw the veil. That seems very plausible. It would still work having origin stories in the game. You would be forced to accept help from people you tried to escape from(elven slave in tevinter or tal vashoth) or similar. and having all the big evil groups at once? nope, I don't trust Bioware enough for that, again, take story of Inquisition as an exaple of their limited competence. it would be sooo giant chaos that they would need mroe than one game for that. Hmmm, maybe they could do something with siding with someone and defeating SOlas, but being to late and end scene being that veil tearing. That could maybe work. So next game would be only controling that demon invasion etc. + potentionaly that elven pantheon. maybe we could even convince SOlas that his plan is bad idea)as I want since Trespasser) and he would realize his mistake and being it too late, Veil would fall, but he would help us in the next game to do something about it. But this is not likely I would say. The idea with having more elfen "gods" apear in the game is one I like. Make this game about those elven "gods" and Solas mainly would make sense, it would still use that siding with Tevinter/Qun thing and partially we could see some return of Grey wardens and Gryfons, who would be the main part of the next game, which would contain another blight. That I would like. So in short, I don't expect Veil to be destroyed, I expect Tevinter/Qun side choosing against Solas with some presence of other elven "god" figure and I would like to have bigger involvment of Grey wardens in DA5 preferably with another blight or something.

Solas is nuts! He doesn't reason anything and is ruled by emotions. If things were great, then why place the veil in the first place? Answer: Power absolutely corrupts. The Dragon Age: The Masked Empire touches on this. Let us say powerful mages used their own people as blood bank fuel.

I think the ending might be the same as Mass Effect. In that we might get a choice whether to 1) Let Solas take down the veil, 2) stop Solas from taking down the Veil and 3) Your own choice of whatever i think.

I just think that Solas is stupid he never thinks of what his actions will cause like- -If spirits get corrupted when forced into the physical world then what will happen when the veil is torn down wont the spirits be in a constant spit state like wisdom being wisdom and pride? -What happens to the Qunari The Iron Bull speculates that they were once elves that had dragon ancestors wont they get a bolster to their magic then what happens to the the other races that are not part of the qun? -Will the Old gods of tevinter also get a power boost? And what of darkspawn if they came from humans going into the Black City and with it being on the other other side of the fade won't their be a massive horde of new new darkspawn? -If Solas tears down the veil then wont the other Elven gods turn on him for locking them up in the first place and won't they be more powerful since they are on the other side of the fade with a constant flow of magic? -And what of the dwarfs wont they be overun with the darkspawn getting a power boost? What about the titans if they get magic and start to stir what will happen to the world? because we know that (or can speculate) lyrium comes from titans What an IDIOT DOES HE THINK ANY OF THIS THROUGH!!!!

I think Solas tearing down the Veil is inevitable. All that we, the players, can do is affect how it is torn down. Perhaps attempting to sabotage Solas' plans will just make the outcome worse, and "failing" to stop him will actually make it less devastating on the world. (I trust Solas to tear down the Veil, who else knows how to do it than the person who created it?) As for Dragon Age 5, when the Veil is torn down, I think our major decisions from the past games in Thedas politics (freeing Mages, siding with Templars, who is Divine, etc.) will shape how the world will be reborn after its collapse. Thedas will "burn in the raw chaos" (as Solas puts it) because the destruction of the Veil will destroy Thedas' way of life and the way its people operate. With the Veil gone, the people that were surpressed by it (mages, elves) will rise in power. Perhaps everyone will have magic in some form. Either way, it will never be the same.

Jackdaw Journalism - you could do a vid about what abilities or specialisations you miss or wish to see? For example; only a warden with a high coercion skill AND a high cunning attribute could successfully persuade and ultimately change the whole world depending on attribute allocation, skill expenditure and class (little bit of race too). Dragon age origins had a complexity that combined the importance of character upgrading for battle and its effect or counter-effects on ability to manipulate characters or situations (like having to spend on abilities in order to open locks, which means you can't get Master Archer soon enough or having to have high strength attribute to successfully 'intimidate' even if you need more dexterity for Shield Mastery. In dragon age inquisition and DA 2 there were no player unique limitations or consequences on plot development - you simply press A on the most appealing option.
