Star Wars fans: "I want to be a Jedi!"
Harry Potter fans: "I want to be a wizard!"
Assassin's Creed fans: "I want to be an Assassin!"
Dragon Age fans: "Lol I'm good."
Sanguiluna I'd settle for Hawke and the Inquisitor, but being a grey warden is slightly different I think
That is why the Grey Wardens will just Conscript those who said no. Specially during the Blight
i'd give it a shot, maybe follow it up with a chaser.
thats a good one 3:)
i am star wars fan but i wanna be a Stih :3 much more fuun :) Jedi are just *yawn* boring
Becoming a Grey Warden felt more badass than becoming the Inquisitor.
Probably because the Grey Warden's sacrifice much more and the whole plot of Origins felt much more involved. You have a great sense of urgency to save the world from this grand threat that slaughtered an entire army. Then you have a ragtag group trying to save the world whilst The Inquisitor has the power of a small nation.
The plot of Inquisition however, is bad. There's lots of good lore and characters but no sense of urgency. Corypheus is made to be a threat but you never feel like he and his forces are at all threatening. You constantly fuck up his plans, he is evil for the sake of being evil with the goal of being powerful because he is evil. He is incompetent and forgetable. I could not care much about the Inquisitor struggling to defeat Corypheus, as there was no struggle.
@@snowinowen4 To be fair, in haven, he really felt like a threat.
His army seriously lacked presence after that.
And before that.
@@snowinowen4 it's sad, because He was more easier than Loghain even.
Between The Inquisitor and The Warden... Well... The chan and Co... Is nothing against, Loghain, Arl Howe, Bann Esmerelle, Mother, The Arquitect, the Archdemon, the Flesh Golem and his brother's... Antiva Crow's... And even The calling. Literally... Warden is a Motherfucking god. Like... The Maker Himselft should be the real Threat to the Warden if they got a new DLC.
Kieran would be proud of his Dad, and Morrigan... Well... There no reason that She's so fell in love with him. A true Warrior, a true father, and a Real Good Son (Arl of Pinacle and Cyrion, best fathers of the Warden ever)... But... The Inquisitor what? Reunite an army to restore orden, kill an stupid Regular villian and the lies of the Chantry... So dumb
Edit: Also, saving youe GF from a Motherfucking God dragon Gilf, later kill a Celestial Dragon, Kill another Corrupted celestial dragon, a 4th Celestial Dragon, and the Equal from Elves and Maker hand. Like, give a Rest to the Warden xd
@@snowinowen4 He is not completely forgetable for me, mostly because of the whole backstory of his (:
Totally agreed.
Grey Wardens - The Heroes everyone needs, but the Heroes nobody aspires to be...
You cannot grasp how much they sacrifice until you really think about it, they are NEEDED, but every single one is also bound by a curse, a curse that will eventually kill them. Were they not around, the world would die and succumb to darkness, and fire and death. All that is light would be destroyed until only ash remain. Forced to fight the deformed shells of twisted elves, dwarves and men. They are the ones who must stare death and darkness dead in they eye, and then fight it back to the places from which it came. Then, if they are lucky and survive the horrific battle, assuming they are not driven to madness by the psychological wounds of that war, they return to their fortress. No thanks, no reward, no nothing, gone and forgotten until they are needed once more, even then during peacetime, wardens must be recruited merely 'in case' the Darkspawn attack. Their lives spent, gone, whittled away merely on the off chance the menace returns...
They Grey wardens embody what it means to be a true hero. Yet only those with nothing left in their lives would dare consider becoming one...
+Whoami691 That made me cry... :'(
+Whoami691 Even when there is currently no blight to fight there is plenty of Darkspawn to kill, and not just in the deep roads. And since their blood is deadly poisonous and killing usually is messy, even these rather small events of Darkspawn surfacing or breaking through tunnels in mines fall into Grey Warden duty, since their sacrifice made them immune to it. The Grey Wardens are the only surface dwellers that are always aware of the danger lurking under everyones feet, and in between blights they are often declared obsolete, useless, and people stop takign them serious. "Grey Wardens belong into fairy tales. Just like their Griffons." It's not just that they get no thanks or honors, and that their sacrifice is simply expected from them, but that they are obnly called heroes when there is visible dark spawn to fear. People are skeptic of them whenever they don't see an immediate need for them. After our Hero of Ferelden ended the fifth blight, they regained a lot of influence and they are still positive in peoples minds, but it already starts to fade again. Just remember how even King Cailen didn't believe Duncan that they were truly facing the fifth blight, simply because he hadn't seen an archdemon yet, or heard of sightings at least. Nobody took the Grey Wardens seriously until they actually needed them.
Truly "the Heroes everyone needs, but the Heroes nobody aspires to be..." I couldn't have found any better words to describe their order. The horrors they face, the sacrifices they make, the fate they accept, all for the greater good, serving the people.
In War, Victory. In Peace, Vigilance. In Death, Sacrifice.
Their cause is a noble one, that only finds respect in times of great need. I fear for what will happen in another 20 years, when the horrors of the fifth blight fade further in the peoples collective mind, and for what the sixth blight will bring.
+Gna Cat I salute you, stunningly good summary of an underappreciated order, agree with ya^^

OH! Uh, thank you! I am almost sorry for throwing such a long comment out there but I was pretty upset after seeing how many people spoke against them after Inquisition. Saying the Grey Wardens should be thrown out of Ferelden because they made an honest mistake in their desperate attempt to save the world once more- how fucked up. It's like, imagine we're having civil war and a charming and highly intelligent mass murderer infiltrating get into the high ranks in the FBI and play with them and bring chaos before finally someone notices. Would that mean that the FBI needs to be banned? There is no such thing as a 100% failsave organisation, and especially during desperate times they are quicker to resolve to desperate and dangerous measures. Now take into consideration that the Wardens all heard the calling and feared there would be NOBODY left to fight the next blight and then got convenient 'help' to end it all once and forever, and I really don't see how this could have gone any differently with any other organisation. Everyone else was out fighting demons and worried about the rift, the problem of the blight fell to the wardens alone, again. They knew the rest of the world would not care until it was too late, again. They had to act, or die and accept that the next blight would end the world, consume Ferrelden and then be too big to be stopped. The problem is not that the Wardens are stupid, or that they don't have enough control, it's that nobody takes them serious and over many many generations they got the message that people are ignorant. They don't share the curse of the blight, they can't feel them deep in the earth, so they wouldn't know whether or not the wardens tell the truth, and seeing as how powerhungry the rest of the world is, of course everyone else would believe the GW just try to scare people into giving them more power. And the wardens know that. They know that and when you make them think their order will DIE, and leave the ignorant people defenseless, who can blame them for taking desperate measures? Which modern day organisation wouldn't? Tell all of americas police they will die soon and there will never be police in the country ever again. You better believe a lot of our heroes will feel obliged to erase as much scum from the face of the earth as they can before they go.
Also eople argue that in Origins the blight was ended with just 2 Grey Wardens, so technically you only need one to kill the archdemon and that's that, but they always forget how many cities, towns, and villages were eradicated, how much land was tainted and has becomes useless. Good thing the blight killed so many, haha otherwise they wouldn't be able to feed them all anymore and theid have faced a famish next. Like- WT- I can't handle this shit. Okay let's say you only have about 2 wardens, one two kill the archdemon, two for backup and to recruit another one to keep the order alive when they get old since you need a warden to do the ritual and make another warden, so that there always will be one in case they need one. Now imagine there is another blight, first of all, your armies won't stand a chance, not only will the blight outnumber them, but they are terrified because they are not used to the blight and that's pretty much the legions of hell crawling from the earth. After a battle the dark spawn will drag survivors under the earth to create more dark spawn, so you give them recources by sending your normal soldiers to fight. And even if you manage to win one battle, those people will be mentally scarred and probably infected with the blight and die soon. People will die like flies, because there is no cure for the blight, and in taints people and land alike. Now try to keep your two gray wardens alife and at the same time get them close enough to the archdemon to kill it. Good luck. In Origins our player character dies how many times before you finally manage that? I don't wanna do the math on that to find out how small the chances of winning that horrible battle really were. So depressing.
It just angers me how many people underestimate the imprtance of the Grey Wardens, and that people don't see that the way the Wardens were treated by the world cornered them even more when the desperation was great. Yes, what happened was horrible, but it was an honest mistake and they stand up for it. They don't make excuses and they want to give their friggin lives to make up for it. I wonder if that would have been a normal military force, how many would react the same as an order of people that winds up the clock and starts a countdown to a horrible death fighting dark spawn in the deep roads to protect the innocent and the ignorant the moment you become part of it, and accept a life of humility where their sacrifice is expected and taken without a word of thanks.
I would never throw the wardens out of Ferelden, not as long as they are this honest, this upstanding, this accepting of their fate and their punishment for fucking up, and this dedicated to saving everyone. Nope. Despite everything I still think the Grey Wardens are one of the most trustworthy organisations ever. Their motive is never more than to help, to save people. They don't care for power, they don't care for glory. How much purer can they get? GW 4 da win.

Holy shit I'm so sorry what a monster post. I was just rambling you don't have to read that.
after reading the world of thedas volume 1. these lyrics makes more sense. they sings in dwarf , english, and elven the motto of Grey Warden... jeez bioware did a good job with this fantasy world
Eden Link the first is dwarfen?i think so. But that what is sung by the kids is German
which would make sense, the Anderfels where the wardens are headquartered is basically thedas' version of germany
In German the kids sing: "Im Frieden sei wachsam. Im Kriege sei siegreich. Im Tode bring Opfer. So wirst du ein grauer Wächter sein." (In peace be vigilant. In war be victorious. In death bring sacrifices. This is how you become a grey warden.)
Couldn't find dwarven lyrics :(

The Warden's are the true definition of what a hero is. It's easy to do good, knowing that the world's eyes are upon you, knowing that you will be rewarded and remembered. But it is another thing to give up everything to protect the world, knowing that you will not be rewarded, and few will remember you.
And the idea that for centuries many of your order will live and die with no point to their sacrifice
Unless there is a Blight, all those sacrifices are in vain. That is soul crushing
@@spacejesus6581 I just now saw this, and the thought of all the Warden's that wasted away between Blight's breaks my heart. People who gave everything they are for the chance to save the world, only to descend into insanity and fade away.
EURASIA FOREVER!!!!!
Lol the Grey Wardens are one order of warriors in fantasy that are so badass and cool but I would not want to be. Their lives are all about uncredited, unconditional sacrifice and hardship taken upon themselves for the sake of all others, and ends in tragedy, a hard path to walk.
The343freak With the recent events in Inquisition, I seriously feel terrible for them. Everyone hates them right now and they were all tricked into doing what they did because of the taint.
***** I promise you there's a few Fereldans that are disgusted by it. People turn on you quickly. They might revere the Hero, but that doesn't mean they feel the same about the rest of the order.
Rowan Buchanan Aren't people quick to turn on their saviours? I mean look at how quickly the Fereldans turned on Loghain. Though to be fair he was being quite the asshole. xD
***** In the words of wise Commander of the Grey Kristoff (no, not the one Justice inhabits in Awakening, though there's a theory that they're related), "You will guard them and they will hate you for it. Whenever there is not a Blight actively crawling over the surface, humanity will do its best to forget how much they need you." And it's a true statement. The Wardens go around recruiting people, a lot of whom die, for a problem that people never care about unless they've lived it. Plus, they're a bit of a drain on the economy, and nobody likes the idea of trusting a large group of elite soldiers nearby whose only proof that they won't turn against them is their word, and who won't lend their considerable force to help with anything unless there are darkspawn involved in some way. I can see why a lot of people would dislike the Grey Wardens, personally. The only place you probably won't find much in the way of anti-Grey Warden sympathy is Orzammar, because they have a darkspawn problem literally all the time. Maybe the Anderfels too, but that's extremely iffy.
The343freak i think and i hope that if bioware do another dragon age game (and they must) after mass effect of course the main character will be the hero of ferelden our warden and the plot will be something like searching the cure for the call that makes the warden not live more than 30 years and die in the deep road remember what leliana says about the warden in the inquistion and she is my romance interest i really hope control the warden again with voice actors!! :)

You know when i did the ultimate sacrifice ending with my female human warden, I said aloud "in peace she was vigilant, in war she was victorious and in death she sacrificed she showed all what it meant to be a gray warden." I dont know why but I liked the sound of that : 3
I read out things like that to myself....
Never did the sacrifice... always automatically picked the options that got me to survive
In peace, Vigilance . In War, Victory. In Death, Sacrifice !
Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my d- wait, wrong Doomsday-preventing military order
You guys are cooked
I think everyone (damn near, but you all don't count otherwise) is in agreement that the Grey Wardens are the true heroes of all the Dragon Age games.
The sad part is that DA2 and Inquisition prove that not one person cares about the wardens in Thedas, even though the blight was only, what 10 years ago or so.
i think that was the true message of Inquisition, your character in Origins was that greatest thing since sliced bread, and no one cares. You were only a Warden so fuck off.
Sad really. but gives perspective to DAO dialogue that seemed a little off when you were saving the world.
"In war, heroes. In peace, nuisances." could be their motto. When a Warden's coming is ever a good omen?
There is no arguing that during a Blight, the Grey Wardens are the best thing in the world. But outside Blights, they only serve to remind people of absolutely horrible truth they'd rather forget. That there is a whole specie that want nothing else than to kill and/or defile you and everyone you know. All they do is act like they're at war, even outside of war. And war is costly to everyone involved, so there's that too...
In short, it's sad, but entirely justified. It's also why despite being so awe-inspiring, the Wardens are always so ill-equipped to face their mission: even if everyone admire them, nobody wants to live like they do.
Reminds me a lot of the army in general. When in war, everyone is all gung-ho about how awesome those men and women are and how much they sacrifice to walk willingly into the horrors of war so you can stay at home and live your life.
But in times of peace? Baby killers, meatheads, gun nuts, a waste of good tax money, stormtroopers of the government. It's hilarious how quickly people forget.
"We won WW2 and protected your freedom!"
"Yeah, but what have you done for us *lately*?"
@@AndragonLea true, but like with the wardens there is some truth to it
mark schultz Really the same fate the befell the Grey Wardens also befalls the Inquisition. You're heroes who save the world, risk untold limits of magic and come back from battle broken only for the public to scoff and forget. The Warden, Hawke and Inquisitor all have this happen to them. It's a cycle that remains unbroken.
Everyone seems to love the Hero of Ferelden. They just generally forget about the Grey Wardens as a whole.

Harry Potter fans. : Voldemort is the ultimate evil.
DAO fans : Thats cute.
There's the Darkspawn, the forces of Chaos from 40k, Gaunter O'Dimm of The Witcher, the Reapers of Mass Effect, and the demons from Doom. And that's just to name a few. Harry Potter fans are adorable, writing their fanfictions, waving sticks around, and pretending that Voldemort, of all things, who was bested by a nearsighted child, is anything even approaching intimidating. It's hilarious, really.
@@jaffarebellion292 " the forces of Chaos from 40k" - oh my... If they were the only nightmare fuel thing there it would actually be far easier for humanity to survive and maybe even thrive in 40k.
@@frostwolf011 The issue with Chaos is that you can never truly get rid of it, because it's the psychic manifestation of indispensable aspects of the universe. Khorne, Slaanesh, Nurgle, and Tszeench will always exist, and even if you COULD destroy them, new Chaos gods would pop into existence. They're pure evil, and they cannot be stopped. Eventually, the Great Rift (formerly the Eye of Terror) will continue to expand and the Warp will swallow all.
@@jaffarebellion292 and that is where Necrons and their pylons come into work. They close down the warp rifts through whatever shenanigans Necrons came up with.
So the 4 turds can be stopped but the question is whether anyone will be left to do it if other big bads(Nids and Necrons) get to annihilate life in the galaxy.
@@frostwolf011 Ehh No.
Technically if the Necron pylon network would cover the whole galaxy Chaos would still be at large. Although setting foot in the material world would be so much harder to them. But the power of chaos mainly comes from their worshippers. And everyone dreams. And the more numerous humanity becomes , the more and more people get stranded in the bottom. With nothing to lose , but misery the Mutant and the Heretic always turn to the forces of Chaos.Either in time they would sabotage the pylons or destroy them.
Btw the Pylons in truth are Ctan technology. Necrons are almost immune to the direct effects of the Warp (hence the missing soul).
In my Opinion the Grey Wardens are so much more badass than Space Marines. Because they are simply Regular humans with the power of the Taint.
Even if the Grey Warden is succesful to kill the Archdemon and stop the blight. The one who does it , dies. Never once I've met a group (maybe the LotR rangers) that is more selfless than the GWs. Their motto describes them the best.
"In Peace , Vigilance. In War, Victory. In death , Sacrafice."
PS.: 4:00 it chants the same motto , in german.And it's the most beautyful and touching thing I've ever heard!
This song is also used as the hymn of Eurasia in the community of 1984

I hope so, I got really attatched to the order for how little time we knew anyone in it, I mean come on it was awesome
***** I don't think the next game as much as I and everyone else would love to see it. Bioware said years ago that the Warden's (your Origins PC) story is over. Also a few months back, one of the writers talking about Inquisition mentioned about how there are too many variables involved to make a decent sequel involving the Warden and that it would take too much work to implement all the important choices and variables. But I still have hope that one day...

I bet the grey wardens have it bad or worse than the nights watch.
+Jake Tryon Grey Wardens eventually die to the taint so they have it worse
+Ecrozz You have 30 years to live, They don't die at 30 years.
+Jake Tryon atleast they get to fuck witches of the wilds
+ ThePedrao360 He actually said, "then die at a ripe age AFTER 30 years." He also said "since basically the warden you make is defined as about 20-24 (years of age) in game it'd be about 50"
Duncan was roughly 18 years of age when he went through his Joining and is said to be around his late 40's maybe early 50's when the 5th Blight starts. Even if he had not met his end in Ostagar, Alistair states at one point that Duncan was starting to hear the "Calling" and would soon go to Orzammar, himself.
+Ecrozz Some wardens wouldn't even get 30 years depending on their exposure to the taint. In other words, if you're a grey warden during a blight you're SOL.
Imagine you're playing DA4, you're in the final chapter and there's a big battle cutscene, your new character, companions and allies are on their hands and knees getting swarmed by the enemies and losing the fight one by one. Suddenly, this theme kicks in and there's a swarm of Gryphons descending from the sky like the stories of old, with one Grey Warden in particular leading the charge (Face obstructed by a helmet, default model silhouette that changes based on your origins save file/world state) , and they turn the tide of battle in your favor. After the battle, you see that same Grey Warden hugging Alistair/Leliana/Morrigan in the background and fly away on their Gryphon and salute you. If your Origins GW is dead, it won't be as epic since it'd probably be the replacement character from Awakenings instead, but hey it'd still be amazing and worth it for those of us who've had our grey warden alive and well for the last however many years.
Dude this concept is so fucking epic i shed a tear; i would give bioware all my money if that happened
And after he/she helps and says goodbye we ask "who was that...?" and they just reply with a smile "that was...hero of feralden"
cliche
Hahahaha not a bad idea! Though for me, about the HoF, I prefer to think that whoever we left behind in the fade they would somehow meet HoF there lol. I mean if you spared the Architect in Awakening the HoF and Architect would search on how to stop the blight from ever happening. So what if their research brought them 2 to the fade lol and when time needed HoF (or someone else if you sacrificed HoF in Origin) they came from the fade and opened the rift to help the DA4 main character. Or probably coming out from random eluvian mirrors that coincidentally was in the place where DA4 epic battle happened hahaha. But seriously if a rift was randomly opened that'd be incredibly amazing too. People were running around and screaming "DEMONS!" and after everyone hid only then they saw HoF stepped out. Was it going to be another Andraste blessing shenaningans or something entirely different would be what the people thought
Not working precisely because some choose the ultimate sacrifice in Origins (like I did). I think it would be interesting a quest where you go to the Fade in search of the character you left behind in Inquisition (Alistair would be the best choice, but it could be Hawke or the generic Warden I don't know the name). If the Warden is alive, he/she accompanies you in the search for that character, if he/she is dead, he/she appears at the end of the quest as a spirit, kind of a revelation that there is something after death in this world and that he/she is there, waiting in the end of the journey through the Fade that takes you to paradise. And maybe if it's a woman who had a relationship with Alistair, she acts as the catalyst for him not returning to the living and preferring to go along with her. After all, if anyone suffers in this universe, it's poor Alistair.
This song makes me feel like a bad ass... Seriously. One of the coolest theme songs a character/faction could be granted. I'm dying for Inquisition.

For Ferelden, for the GREY WARDENS!!!
When my marching band instructor asks for song suggestions for next year, I'll have him listen to this. XD
2:54 There's the sweet spot...
I can just imagen my female Warden (currently a mage) singing the solo bit at the end as she leads her Wardens,freinds and allies onwards.
I can't.
Because you don't have a bad ass imagination like me
Vlad Dracula Hello, sir, I thought you are dead... Bran Stoker revived you! :(
I can't imagine one person singing this
I meant just the solo part at the end thus why I said "while she leads her friends, wardens and allies onwards" so she wasn't alone she just got to end that bad ass song like a boss
"In peace, vigilance, in war victory, in death, sacrifice, this is what it means to be a Gray Warden!" this reminded me on Duncan. ;-;
He says that in the Wardens Calling trailer as a narration, but in the earlier days of development Peace and War were swapped
Never thought this is the original version of the anthem of the Union of Communist Eurasia.
U mean Union Of Socialist Eurasia?
@@miyoko8380
Yes.
It'd be so cool to be a Grey Warden! Except, not at all.
Maybe remove the whole "It's a death sentence either way and you'll still die in 10-30 years."

Join us, brothers and sisters. In death, in sacrifice. We'll fulfill our duty.
Join us brothers and sisters
join us in the shadows where we stand vigilant
join us as we carry the duty that cannot be forsworn
and should you parish know
that your sacrifice will not be forgotten and that one day we shall
join you..
★Wendy★ For Ferelden!
For the Grey Wardens!
Omg you guys were so perfectly sync I Love It. FOR THE GREY WARDENS!!!!
wrong
Imagine what kind of dream team of grey wardens there would have been, if Duncan would have had a handful of extra wardens to send each of them to different places, one to cousland castle, one to circle of magi, one to brecilian forest, two to orzammar and one to denerim city to recruit all those 6 individuals and then to ostagar, all would have survived the joining, no other companion would have been needed.. :D
Oh wow that would have been awesome, especially if we got to play all of their origins until Ostagar where they meet up. And we got to design all seven.
Our Hero of Ferelden, the one
Another die at Ostagar
If Darkspawn dream this song surely echoes in their bleakest nightmares.
Eurasia? Any body? 2:54
LONG LIVE EURASIA!!!
DEATH TO BIG BROTHER and Happiness to our glorious allied East Asia.
Yes
Yeees
Hi
Cavanda Cousland sat upon her stallion of white, its armour glistening like a star in the night. In her hand she held the sword of her family and in the other she gripped the shield that bore the herald of the Grey Wardens. Beside her was her beloved King Alistair, clad in silver armour and plumed helmet. To Cavanda's rear, massed the vast armies that had been compelled to fight the Darkspawn horde. They all stood abreast, willing to fight alongside each other to the bitter end, regardless of race. The haunting screams of the dying could be heard coming from the burning city of Denerim. The sky was red like blood and the heat of the fires could be felt by Cavanda. Alistair raised his sword and lowered it down to face the incoming darkspawn horde and in the short silence that ensued he shouted at the top of his voice:
"For Ferelden!" Canvanda dug her heels into her horse, driving it onwards. The encouraged cries of the alliance brought hope to all who heard them. Before the armies clashed, both Alistair and Canvanda shouted in unison so that all could hear: "In War: Victory,
In Peace: Vigilance,
In Death: Sacrifice!" This is what it means to be a Grey Warden.
Enjoy, my fellow Andrastians and Wardens!
I would like this comment a thousand times, because that sends chills down my spine! :D
when did this become the de facto anthem of Eurasia in 1984?
Some guy on NationStates a decade ago remade Eurasia from 1984 and literally stole this song for its anthem.
Dragon age origin was the best for me because it really hits my feelings... leaving your parents to die by the hands of your enemies is really painful.. throughout the game i felt like i was really fighting for justice and vengeance.. and when i finally killed that bastard it felt so good but not for too long because i know i have to die for the freedom of mankind and i did die..
Eurasia! Forever!
Jump to 2:54 for instant awesomeness
^^^ This man, is the man.
That part was *played live* by Corvus Corax in 2010
A certified Eurasia anthem moment.
Even with the release of Inquisition, Origins is still my favorite of the Dragon Age series, darker and grittier, a true dark fantasy title. Inquisition disappointed the hell out of me.
Nikita chases the eagle same, if I may share my nitpicks my main turn off was they went for a "tolerant modern" to a medieval style game by making only 'gay' and 'transgender' characters the latter making no sense to the time it is placed in and the beginning taking away from the free RPG style of you being able to do whatever the hell you want to immerse yourself.
Nikita chases the eagle please this game is just straight fantasy no more gritty then lord of the rings. wanna see something dark try berserk or dark souls
but still...inqusition is game of the year 2014
Same.
Ying Zhi thats because 2014 was a horrible year for games
Made with Oceanian tears
FOR WHITERU- i mean FERELDEN! *nervous cough*
why thankyou marco dat phoenix
u mean whiterun from skyrim?
DarkVarg yep lol
"For skyrim!" "For skyrim!" "For Skyrim!" "For Dragon Age!-" *all the guards attack him*
͡° ͜ʖ ͡° XD for thedas and for Tamrial
"In cooperation with the audio director of Dragon Age: Origins, Simon Pressey, and conductor Bernard Fabuljan, the Berlin band Corvus Corax interpreted the theme melody of Dragon Age in their own style.
The result is an epic track over five minutes long, which reproduces the Grey Warden's creed in both elven and dwarf languages as well as in German and English and thus underlines the cinematic character of this extraordinary game."
Could anyone tell me how the hack this BGM became 1984 Eurasia anthem in lots of videos on ytb, and no one doubts?!
hi, I think that few people know the soundtrack from this game, besides, almost a minute segment was cut from the composition. but yes, it's a pity that there is no link to the original composition under any of the videos. and yes, would you like to discuss replacing this music as the anthem of Eurasia? there are many Soviet songs that could fit this role.
for example, this is the anthem of the Communist Party of the USSR. this song has a very beautiful intro.

Someone probably made it first then people copied it

BAGPIPES!!
Anthem of Union of Socilaist Eurasia
I see you man of culture.
this is one of those songs that give you chills...
Why do people say: it's Eurasia's anthem? (From 02:55)
I found the song in a "top 10 fictional anthems" video marked as "Anthem of Eurasia" from 1984. There is a 10-years-old video too that states this song is Eurasia's anthem. So I thought this song came from the film adaptation of 1984 because of them. I watched the film and I was disappointed because this music wasn't in the movie.
Finally, I found some info so now I know, it's a song from "Dragon Age: Origins". And as I searched for the original version of the song, I found *this* video.
(I have never played this game, and I know nothing about it. Sorry.)
So... so why do they state: it's the anthem of Eurasia (or the Union of Socialist Eurasia)?
It most likely came from some fan made version of the Eurasia anthem and they might've played this game and thought the music reminded them of Soviet music resulting in the unofficial use of this song as the Eurasian anthem
If you have played papers, please you might've heard about the lost country of skoatia which didn't actually exist but was a made up country by a gaming blog from many years ago
The game have socialistic undertone with bits of liberal values, the song does sound "socialist". You can see in the game where the priests in churches are women, religious institution is corrupt and full of drug addicts, the main bad guy is a deluded xenophobic far right nationalist who sold slaves to fund his war effort against his made up enemy, LGBTQ is accepted and nobody care, the whole theme is everyone unite to against the rotten blighted enemy in a corrupt capitalist world which slavery is still practiced.
@@MizanQistina I think that's a bit of a stretch
Man, this game. The memories..
Too bad everything goes south for the Grey Wardens in the recent events of Inquistion.
Tung Dao in fairness things never really go well for them, just less shitty
SCREW THE INQUISITION! FOR THE GREY WARDEEEEENS!
screw you
It surprisingly this became the Eurasian athem
I don't think it would have been that easy for the other wardens, the warden during the story got INCREDIBLY powerful. He wiped clean a tower full of aberrations that even the templars had gave up on, defeated demons, ventured all the way in the Deep Roads and in the Fade and killed a dragon. All prior to kill an archdemon. He was no common human nor warden, he was extremely powerful. And the fact that the blight didn't even start means nothing more that its power would have grown even more.

Lmao
Is that an Eurasia reference?
@@miyoko8380 no that's the actual lyrics
The lyrics from eurasian anthem are fake
What’s the language translated
This has always been the anthem of Eurasia.
The lyric of the Eurasian theme keeps stucking in my mind
What do you mean this isn't the anthem of the great Eurasian Socialist Union?
Lol
I am still mourning Duncan's death :(
his sacrifice wil not be forgotten
You and me both
In Death, Sacrifice.
I just realized that from 4.04 - 4.34 they sing german =)
I'm German and i can't understand a single word. Lyrics?^^
Azagio
"Im Friede sei wachsam
Im Kriege sei siegreich
Im Tode bereit
So wirst du ein Grauer Wächter sein"
Die meisten Worte sind ziemlich lang gezogen und etwas seltsam betont ;)
Schoko Muffy Jetzt hör ich's raus, danke für die Antwort :)
Seit Jahren höre ich dieses Lied, aber das ist mir bis jetzt noch nie aufgefallen...
Schoko Muffy
Sagen sie nicht “Im Tode bring Opfer”?
They sacrifice their past(family and friends), present( do everything you can to stop the Blight), and future(due to the darkspawn blood). Truly a noble warrior.
Dragon age inquisition says otherwise
25 Darkspawn & 1 archDemon was defeated in this battle
24 darkspawn, 1 archdemon, 1 Loghain and 1 arl Howe hates this song
Arthas Nerzhul that's 27, I just counted it, and there are 26 dislikes
In war, Victory. In peace, Vigilance. In death, Sacrifice
Sandal is the creepiest character in Dragon Age, I swear. He says "Not enchantment!" as he stood in a circle of dead Darkspawn and other monsters in Dragon Age II when you go into the Deep Roads.
You made it
You found it
Eurasia is here
Finally I know where that 1984 Socialist Eurasia anthem comes from.
Can't believe a dudes nationstates country got this turned into Eurasia's Anthem.
Not even the 1984 Eurasia and the nationstates country, it’s the unofficial anthem of the ENTIRE FUGGING CONTINENT now
Just know that you can't save everyone, but you can make their sacrifices worth something.
WE NEED A DRAGON AGE ORIGINS MOVIE!! Not like dawn of the seeker, but live action, sort-of like how they did with lotr. Back when they didn't use bullsh*t CGI all the time, but a REAL fantasy movie. And the best part of the movie would be that this song plays when ever something epic happens.
+Austin Henderson sure, but it'd be bioware canon, not your own personal play-through. i don't think a lot of people would enjoy that.
thats true. dragon age is nice game becouse there is lot endings but if they do movie how its ending? is alistair king? is loghain a warden?!
It would be amazing too if a film with another hero and storyline to be taking place before Dragon Age Origins in the world of DA :)
Nooo. An HBO series like Game of Thrones!
the grey warden dosent have to be the main charatcer
You can see how the bows of dalish origin sing of death and darkened sky; the dwarven forces send the darkspawn flying and the humans slaying what there will still come.
Da:o is the most epic game there ever was
DUNCAAAAAAAN! :'(
Join us, brothers and sisters. Join us in the shadows where we stand vigilant. Join us as we carry the duty that can not be forsworn. And should you perish, know that your sacrifice will not be forgotten. And that one day we shall join you
People, it doesn’t matter if it’s Grey Warden theme or Eurasia Anthem. What matters is the *GOD DAMN BAGPIPES*
I think both are pretty impressive. I mean, what with the evil relic, I think that's a big task on the Champion's behalf. Hawke was more politically involved and did save quite a bit of lives by destroying the relic. The Hero stopped the Blight before it started, which is huge. Despite which one was "better", Bioware sure did AMAZING at building two incredible story lines and kickass characters.
Twenty nine dark spawn, an archdemon and a logain dislike and 1867 grey wardens and a shriek version of tamlen like. :)
This slaps like my Grey Warden instructor. Mail-fisted.
How after over a decade there are no covers or remixs of this theme? It absolutely slaps and would kill in a symphonic metal cover
Man, I miss this game so much. Kinda hoping there will be a remaster of it on current-gen consoles. But, it's EA I'm talking about here lol
"Join us brothers and sisters. Join us in the shadows where we stand, vigilant. Join us as we cary out the duty that can not be foresworn. And should you perish, know that your sacrifice will not be forgotten and that one day we shall join you."
This song makes me feel powerful
I actually felt proud when I got to join the warden's. Sure their life is tough and tragic, but that makes it all the more awesome. With this music in the background of a battlefield you feel less fear about dying and more ready to slay as many darkspawn as possible. Great, great game.
@AlucardHellsing97 Let's not forget that the Champion only managed to get a former pirate or an elf. The Hero managed to get Flemeth's daughter, the coldest woman of all time.
Also think of it this way. At the end of DA:O its ONE nation against the darkspawn horde... (two if you count orzammar) and Ferelden is weakened by previously being under the Orlesian empire and being at war with them.
Not only are there more Grey wardens in Orlais and the rest of the world but if Orlais makes allies like lets say, the Free Marches and Antiva and the wardens make use of their treaties to recruit even more elves and dwarves...
I believe I made my point :P
dao is one of my favorite games ever! I haven't played da2 yet though i m thinking of buying it because of all the interesting characters/ companions and witty dialogues. I just wish that after you ve completed most of the missions, more enemies would respawn, instead of ...you know.. staying dead and leaving you with nothing to test your new skills on.
4:35 start epic :)
Well if you played the english or french version of the game and you get to hear this sound you see....
Wait it’s not Eurasia’s anthem ?
never was, the "creator" of the Eurasian anthem stole this, changed some parts, and didn't even give credit.
Never has been

"Such as they are. About the Gray Wardens, anyhow."
The Grey Wardens kinda remind me of the Night's Watch from Game of Thrones
Mr Prezident "The developers had cited "realistic" fantasyfiction artists, such as George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire and Frank Frazetta's fantasy paintings, as inspiration for the game." - from Wikipedia :-)
Mr Prezident Nah the Nights Watch have to stand on a wall all their lives and they are not trained warriors wardens are chosen from the elite of fighters
phantom4cerberus Elite of fighters? If you didn't know, Duncan was a mere thief before becoming a Grey Warden. Sure he was skilled, but he still wasn't some big knight or hero, just like many in the night's watch are good fighters but are pratically nobodies. This is one of the similarities that the Grey Wardens share with the Night's Watch. They pick anybody, be a prince or a common beggar.
They remind me of the Specters from Mass Effect.
"Specters are not trained, but chosen. Individuals forged in the fire of service and battle - those whose actions elevate them above the rank and file."
They do whatever it takes to get the job done.
Of course, the Specters didn't have to drink blood on their joining. :)
As a mage, in fact, you're Irving's favorite pupil; as a noble, you're the son/daughter (in my case) of the Cousand, "second only to the king", and they recruit you 'cause of your skills in the assault of your castle.
DA:O wasn't open-world either. There were just more places to visit because of the fact that it took place in a country, not a city and it's country surrounding.
