I'm sure Hawke can be a nice guy while rising to power.

I hope this is true as i am getting fed up with being a goody all the time.

I certainly hope so, however I also hope he can be a complete bastard as well.

Morrigan approved me almost always. Even when I mocked poor villagers and slaughtered dalish elves. And I hated Duncan since I first saw him, so I didn't really change my mind when I learned about the douchebag move he actually pulled off.

Ah, it all just boils down to setting peasants on fire.
I will start playing DA2 as a female mage. A power mad evil maniac, like my male mage in Origins.

ANY problem with rising to power can be solved by setting peasants on fire. ANY.

Then stop being one. It's pretty easy in these types of games.

well i hope for choices a little more difficult... no good and evil option, but something that comes only down to an opinion...

I did not find any decisions in dao as evil, i want them much more gritty, something that will make me think before i act.

I'm still hoping that that line means building up an army...using a built-in grand strategy (and even real time tactical) element/mechanic. (I'm kinda fond of the Total War and Hearts of Iron stuff... )

What? One can dream, ya?

Example: sacrifice Isolde, then strike a deal with Desire Demon in Connor and learn blood magic. Not evil you say?

Nothing evil in that scene, it was all meaningless, whatever you did the same outcome.
To have real evil actions there has to be different results or the it means nothing.
 
If i chop off a mans head i want a reaction from someone and some kind of consequence or it is just like... look at me i am chopping someone's head off i am a bad axx.

Basically prepare for the same feeling you had in DAO when you discovered that Duncan had irretrievably poisoned you.

Or the disappointment of not being able to romance Morrigan because she was so 'disapproving'...

 I was fine with the way the choices worked in DA:O. It was possible to finish the game without having a bad taste in your mouth, but still have to make choices that weren't ideal, if you wanted to play that way, but equally possible to go dark. Awakening, not so much. I felt railroaded a few times. If this is an ugly slog by necessity, it won't be for me. That doesn't mean that I don't want others to be able to go there if they wish, I just want there to be the same range of possibilities that there were in Origins, rather than going further down the path of Awakening.

[Sable Rhapsody]

I have to admit, the tagline for DA2 has me raring to play someone more awful than my usual fare. Generally speaking, with the exception of my truly psychotic Exile, my PCs are more good than not. They might have issues, tempers, skeleton in the closet, etc. but they're never not good somewhere deep down inside. But for DA2, I think I'm going to play a female mage who's a bona fide Slytherin: a power-hungry, ambitious Magnificent Bastard. Who might get better about the whole not being evil thing. But probably won't ^^

lolwhut?

First time I entered camp, Morrigan practically jumped me.

And for being 'poisoned', well, Avernus has demonstrated that there are alternatives.

There's no "nice" in war. You kill or you die. That's it. Simple as that.

Mass Effect done a crap job of letting you be bad. Headbutting people, punching them occasionally. From the get go Dragon Age let's you stab someone in a cage. If it let's you be bad properly and not super limited anti-hero Shepard, then great.
