Thank you! You've inspired me to make my own spreadsheet. If I can make a blank template, I'll share it with BSN in case anyone else is super organized like us.
ETA: I just found this amazing spreadsheet that uses all the Keep choices. Here is a link to the Reddit thread for anyone else who is interested in using spreadsheets.

I might just need to make one now for my playthroughs, thank you for the inspiration (maybe have one page with columns for my Tabris/Cousland's respective playthrough worldstates and one column for their meshed together headcanoned DualWarden worldstate, then another page for my other worldstates). Spreadsheets are probably the only thing that keeps me organized at work, why not with my games too

Spreadsheets are probably the only thing that keeps me organized at work, why not with my games too It really helped me sort it all out. I could share the options around different playthrus, making sure the 'bad' choices were evenly spread. Then I could figure out the Warden's motive for doing said bad thing, and then see how that would impact other choices. Also it's a nice backup should the Keep go down, hence my use of Google docs It'll never die on one of my laptops. Good luck with it

Were we supposed to keep score? I honestly have no idea how many times I've completed each game. I do know that I have completed DA2 less than both DAO and DAI. Now that I think of it, I could load up the Keep and take a look but I'm lazy and I have reapers to kill. What the...? You...post in other threads????????????????

I'm impressed that so many people have played through so many times! I start a lot of games, but usually end up losing steam (aka, I have a more compelling idea for a character and that makes me wanna start over... but the thought of treading through the exact same parts of the game I just spent hours doing... mnyheehh, I lack motivation!).
I think I've played every game to completion between four and five times. With DA4 on the - distant - horizon I'd like to do at least two trilogy playthroughs, plus maybe some DAI speedruns just for fun since it's the one I've played the least. Not because I don't love it, but because I have it on PS4 while DAO and DA2 are on my laptop which is waaaaay more convenient 'cause I'm never home.

Hard to tell.
DAO: 130 hours DA2: 83 hours DAI: 1010 hours
However, there are reasons for the low numbers of DAO and DA2. I had a difficult time with the lack of Warden voice in DAO. Something about DA2 had also not resonated me. I can say things have changed. I got into DAO and have found it to be solid. Same with DA2. There's so much depth to it all.
DAI is probably the least interesting. I look at the character I created, who has people bowing before him and gets to dress up in fancy clothes. It feels so disconnected from being a hero. I'm not saying I dislike the game. I am saying the previous stories have more believable characters and the stories have more depth. I suspect DA4, which is going to have a "powerless" protagonist, will offer a better story. But we'll see.

This is awesome. Dragon Age Keep does a poor job of importing from DAO and DA2. I tried that and it still had a lot of wrong choices that I had to fix. In some instances I didn't fully remember. This sort of spreadsheet will help me keep track so that my timeline is accurate.

As in, more than the completed for all 3 combined. DA2 - 1 DAI - 2 (one of which is 'in progress' and I intend to finish).

This sort of spreadsheet will help me keep track so that my timeline is accurate. I personally just update the Keep as I play. After each session, I go check it and set the right choices. For example, I started a full 3 game PT and just finished DAO. I had a new world state created before starting DAO, then changed the Warden to match my current character and each choices as I went through the game. Then moved to DA2, loaded by DAO save and did (will do) the same for my DA2 PT.

DA:O ~ (3) with all DLCs three times(Female City Elf, Female Cousland, Female elven mage), then base game only the 4th time, and all of the origins then stopping at Ostagar 3 times (Noble dwarf, human mage, and Dalish) DA2 ~ (2)Base and all DLC twice, base only my first time (don't think I knew there was DLC till later), started 2 other games I got through the prologue of. DA:I ~ (1) I have only completed the base game and ALL of the DLC once(F. Human Rogue). I lean towards not being as much a fan of the inkys I make. I finished base game then went Trespasser for my 1st PT (F. Human mage( did base game completionist with my Solas mancer (F. elf mage) but ended up hating her by the end party credits so she didn't even get trespasser, took my 3rd PT character all the way through all DLCs (loved her, but the Ameridan reveal was so wasted on a human rogue), my 4th Dalish Male Cassmancer I did base with trespasser, and my 5th human noble warrior made it past the Winter Palace before I decided he wasn't a good enough person for Dorian, who deserves only the best, and I dropped the PT. I really like the Character Creator, so I've literraly made like 8+ characters to truly visualize the characters I write into my Dragon Age Fanfiction. They get to Haven for their modeling shots, then I drop them. Edit add: like vertigomez said, when I get a release date on DA4, I will make a run once or twice to settle on who I want to bring into DA4. Additionally, I paid my husband to play the series with most DLCs. So that is kinda like a total play through for all three. My nerdiness shines not in making spreadsheets (although I do do that) but in the fact that when my husband needed it, I told him the worship ritual steps from memory in the Dalish Ruins. He still teases me about that.

I played the same Warden about 10 times because I kept changing my mind about his appearance or dialogue choices.
I only played DA2 three times, though that doesn't mean I don't love the game.
DAI: 6 times. And at this point I can't stand to hear any of the dialogue that is already burned into my brain.

It's not his style of game at all so I bribed him with a nintendo switch and breath of the wilds. I needed someone to talk to in real life about dragon age that badly, I suppose.

I guess, I played both DAO and DA2 about 30 times. I have three finished and 4 started playthroughs in DAI, but since Origin and therefore DAI isn't working atm on my new PC (and I haven't found out why and yes, I contacted EA helpdesk, they weren't very helpful either), I currently would say, that DAI is on a forced halt for me. But I'm currently on a new DA2 playthrough.
