 In Awakening? I remember him as being dry and sarcastic. However, whenever I have dialogue with him in DA2, he's so serious and moody.

Yup. It's a real damn shame too. That fool in DA2 is Anders in name only.

Try having him with you while you also have Varric around. Those two make for some of the best random talk stuff ever :D

People change, would have been a bit boring if he was a copy and paste from what we had in Awakenings

He's still funny!  Remember that time he blew up the Chantry?  His most hilarious practical joke yet!

He has his moments. He cracks a few good funnies before reverting back to his "Oh noes I'm so pretty and conflicted and MONSTROUS! Woe for how ever will the fan girls adore me" mentality.

His joke about dreaming of the Grand Cleric being naked was one I've just encountered, there's still some of the old Anders in there.

I didn't even think he was all that funny in Awakening. Especially not when compared with Sigrun, Oghren, and some of Nathaniel's dry humor.

He has still a lot of amusing lines. Try having him and Sebastian in the same group. >.>

he only show his funny side when banter with other characters....even that is rare and far between. But I don't blame him, if I have a righteous spirit turn demon living inside me, I won't be funny either.

I didn't think new Anders was funny at all. Whenever he briefly attempted humor it didn't come off as sarcastic wit, he just sounded needlessly insulting (like the thing about Wesley and about Sebastian's armor).

I thought it was kind of silly that Varric had the line in Act III, "You're no fun anymore." ...When was he ever?

This

Anders was not funny to me at all. As all the other NPCs mention on how much he harps about being a mage and the plight of mages any attempt at humor he makes just comes off as some sort of spiteful remark. Anders was like Alistair in DAA without any of the whining, but in DA2 he is Alistair with whining turned up to max and then some to compensate, effectively making him my most liked and most disliked character of the series.

It goes a bit beyond reasonable however to completely 180 a popular, funny and endearing character like Anders :(I really loved him in Awakenings and now I can't even look at him the same.........

Considering what is going on in his life and what has happened/what he has seen since his time in Awakenings, his progression into a more and more depressive, fanatical state seemed logical and well done imo.

I liked the Anders in DA2 better the one in Awakening was just a clone of Alistair and he's much better when he has his own individual personality.

I agree with this to an extent- while I did end up liking Anders in the "big picture," he initially annoyed me terribly in Awakening because A) I felt that blatantly replacing the personality of Alistair (who I liked a lot and was sad to see not remain a companion in DA:A) was his sole purpose, and B) I really did not like much about Awakening at all to be honest.

But as I said before, considering the chain of events and his personal storyline, I think DA2 Anders makes perfect sense and is well done.

He lost his cat and with it his sense of humor.

Hey I would be pretty sad too if I lost my cat.
