So if you don't distract the cleric for him does that end the romance? As a friend-romance of course I would but I think a rival-romance might not be too sure about that.
It doesn't. I think he'll get angry at you, but that's about it.
That conversation ends with "I've always been alone. I just forgot it for awhile." So dramatic, our Anders.
Damnit, Anders! "No" means "cut the emotional blackmail"!SurelyForth wrote...

Here's something I've been wondering: if you side with the templars at end for whatever reason (say...for the achievement and confession that Orsino knew about Quentin) then what does Anders do? You have to pick before you deal with him. I can't imagine he'd be willing to join you but would he still run off? Make a comment about you being a traitor? Force you to kill him? Maybe show up at the end to fight against you like Fenris will if you side with the mages?

He refuses to join you and you have to kill him or let him go. I believe he shows up in the Gallows to fight you with the mages if you don't kill him. I know you CAN fight him, and that seems like the logical point.

I personally liked the fact that you could go with a friendship romance and still yell at him. I would argue with him plenty and yelled at him both over the emotional blackmail and his stunt at the end. So when I let him live I felt like Hawke was clear in saying that she was doing it not because she condoned what he had done but because he had to live with the repercussions/help make things right for the mages.
I dunno, I can't quite explain it. I just like how it worked out so it felt like Hawke was fighting to help the mages and supporting the man she loved without supporting everything he did.

Yeah. I really liked that, too. While my Hawke did feel bad that she had to bring everyone along for the ride (heck I wish I had the option to tell Fenris that he could walk away if he wanted to, no hard feelings), but she was finally taking the reigns and now has little time for regrets.
It wa a beautiful disaster and I love it.

Hey Rinji,
The quote in your signature sure resonates a lot deeper now eh? I pretty sure they had the entire story planned out even then.

Yeah. I think it really was the entire theme of DA2.

Regret is something I know well. Take care not to cling to it, to hold it so close that it poisons your soul. When the time comes for your regrets, remember me.
To me all those quotes were warnings of what was to come which is obvious but to me the last one on regret seems to be directed specifically towards Hawke and possibly even hinting to Anders as well. That could just be me reading way too much into it though.

Speaking of quotes...Morrigan's echoes everything that Flemeth says to Hawke on Sundermount and back when they first meet.
Without an end, there can be no peace. It gets no easier. Your struggles have only just begun...
We stand upon the precipice of change. The world fears the inevitable plummet into the abyss. Watch for that moment...and when it comes, do not hesitate to leap.
It is only when you fall that you learn whether or not you can fly.

I find it funny that Flemeth talks to some of the companions, but not Anders. She has to know what his role will be, and there's other foreshadowing all over the place.
Oh, well. Also, page 50! Needs more Handsome Hobo:

She talked to Anders on my first runthrough. Something about how he would know about spirits and abominations. Wish she'd done it again this time so I would remember-I brought Fenris too and he overrode it with wondering what she was. Don't remember if it was foreshadowing or not with Anders.

I'm probably alone in this but at the end I hated Anders as much as I hated Quentin, probably because I liked the Grand Cleric too much -__-
