@Fenrispro8 Do you mean that you want Alistair to accompany you into the fade/replace Stroud/Loghain?

For this I think you need Alistair to survive the first game (no surprise there), he can't be king, and I think Loghain needs to die in the first game.

These conditions should have Alistair as the Grey Warden you meet up with in Crestwood.

@EA_David : ( I just got to the part after skyhold, and it is still Stroud! This is utterly disappointing, even though i follow all the steps that Loghain died. Earlier i also asked why the choice of that clashes with morrigan having her son? She didn't have sex with him

@Fenrispro8 You have to set it so Loghain dies at the Landsmeet, Alistair doesn't become King, and either the Warden dies or Morrigan has a baby so nobody dies at the end of DAO. If Morrigan does not have a child and you want Alistair to be the Warden in DAI, your DAO Warden must sacrifice themselves with the Archdemon. There is no way to have Alistair and the Warden alive without Morrigan having a son.

You also can't change the world state once you've started your playthrough. There are some hints in Haven about what happened in the first two games, so you might be able to tell from there whether some of your changes happened (the quartermaster, for example, is a fan of Loghain, and Varric can tell you some things about Hawke and their companions).

your DAO Warden must sacrifice themselves with the Archdemon -- Oh! Likely it's this. The tapestry is tricky, how to change it?

  @Fenrispro8 Here is a good guide explaining the basics of using the Keep. The part you want to change (making the Warden kill the Archdemon, sacrificing themselves) can be found in the DAO section > Battle of Denerim. Hope that helps 🙂

    @Leora85 I can't find it. Read through a few of them is DAO under How to-World state manager or Tutorial- tapestry?

Both the warden and Alistair can be alive in DA:I if you have loghain kill the archdemon. I assume though it is not possible to have him as the warden friend to hawke due to him being a drunk if that world state happens. Though I did notice if you talk to him enough as a drunk in da:2 Tegan shows up and gets him to go home.
