Where'd The Sense Of Humour Go?

It was hilarious. And most of the rest is more hidden humor as I experienced it, no licking the lampost in winter humor (save for Isabella), but more like companion snark, a good bit of ingame irony and lampshading.
I already had some good laughs!

In all seriousness, Isabella's interactions with Aveline were the funniest parts of DA2.

I laughed even when there were no conversation for a minute.

Like others, however, I found that on several occasions the purple-masked "Snarky Hawke" option actually wasn't all that funny. I don't think that choice was so much meant to be the "ha ha" dialog, though; it strikes me more as a sarcastic or slightly peevish response...for when you aren't exactly pleased, but the conversation doesn't merit a verbal slap in the face either.
Overall there have been a number of real comedy gems in this game, and I've been very happy with that. To each their own and all, but I personally think the humor feels less stilted stereotyped this time around.

I don't recall what was said, exactly, but it was hilarious...
Varric: "Stop it! You're confusing her...and me."
[Quote]Edit
Also, when Varric calls his brother a son of a **** and interjects an apology to his mother before completing the sentence.

Are you refering to the awkward silence that Hawke and that guard have in the pub? I laughed pretty hard at that.

I couldn't stop laughing during Varric's fantasy scenario in which he confronts his brother. "You're strong and handsome and so very smart!"
Varric became my favorite character after that. That was awesome.

As far as Banter one of my fav's was when asked by Varric to go back to his Brother's mansion and investigate the reports....."You're a mage, you must know something about weird ****..you'll figure it out!" Just the way he said this had me cracking up. I think Varric was really funny throughout the game without even trying to be. Great character and very good writing on his part.

When I first played that my jaw dropped because I hadn't realized that Varric was clearly the strongest DPSer in the game! That was a pretty clever thing Bioware did there.

I like the look Cassandra gives him after that. And when she accuses him of lying he says "Look, we fought, found my brother and it was awkward. What more do you want?"

I do miss having so much wisecracking from Anders, but from a character development/writing aspect, it makes sense.
I don't have a funny line offhand; should start screenshotting them (I usually have dialog text on).

VARRIC: Yes.
MERRILL: Yes--Wait, what are we voting on?

I know a lot of people will feel the opposite way due to intent icons telling you what's meant to be humorous, and that's perfectly understandable, but I think YMMV applies here. It wasn't just Hawke's dialogue that provided LOL moments either.
For me, anyway.

The humor in DA 2 is a little more...Zena Warrior Princess-ish. Like Bruce Campbells character, the scoundrel of a rouge that hides behind witty sarcasm to never reveal his true intentions or feelings. Or maybe a bit of Captain Jack sparrow influence is a better analogy with the whole pirate direction they took with Isabela. At least thats my take on it.
