that was the best thing about dragons keep, it let new players build their own stories and get to know the characters

They haven't even added Veilguard choices to it (last I checked)
So I genuinely believe they don't know how to any more

The game would have benefited so much from even just offhand comments or a few questions being available to ask about the previous protagonists. Like meeting Morrigan again and not being able to talk to her about how her life with Warden is, or how her son is, especially after how well it was done in Inquisition is maddening.

And there were very clear story moments where their lack of presence was keenly felt, hell we even deal a lot with the Warden calling, what our Warden was dealing with from what we know in Inquisition and we hear a bunch about Free Marches and such, Kirkwall being evacuated, we could have easily heard about them there.

I absolutely refuse to believe that it would have been too hard to account for their existence at the very least, especially given we have a letter system, it didnt even need to require voice dialogue, it is simply a choice from the devs, one I cant disagree enough with and one that definitely impacted my enjoyment of the game :X

It may sound like hyperbole but honestly, seeing the journey of our characters evolve and continue over the next few games, and always having the possibility of bringing them back, and of course having the game world feel uniquely yours based on your past choices is one of the main things that set Dragon Age apart for me. It also doesnt help that Rook is barely a player character.

Its a baffling decision all around, DA Keep shouldnt be wasted like this and neither should all the decisions from previous games.

Indeed. Why bother creating a franchise players can be a part of and influence the worldcrafting with their decisions, when so few of their meaningful decisions carry over from one game to another?

It's almost like our choices... don't matter after all.

If you mean the Keep app itself, a web-based solution was always a bad idea. EA won't keep those servers up forever, as seen with the Origins and Dragon Age 2 servers being shut down, thus making Keep a lot more tedious to use. Inquisition should have used an in-game solution, since one day, importing a World History will just be impossible.

If by "Keep," you just mean a lack of past choices mattering, well, that's another story.

DAO fans have been forgotten... there is no mention of the warden at all... i just reached the scene and felt soo bad not hearing about any of the DAO companions etc.
