It's great fun for me. I've only managed to finish DA:O once since DA2 came out. The horrible, slow combat, the lack of voice, and the terrible wooden facial expression of the Warden drive me nuts, now.

This fit a character who never know anything about suffering but happy-go-lucky all the time even if she/he has loss a sister/brother or even parents. Dumb pathetic emotion character like Lady Hawke.SKRemaks wrote...

What? Do you always live a happy life? Have you ever loss someone close to you? Hmmm... forget it. I don't think you can understand. To you everything is humor and should be taken lightly. You can't understand why people chose not to show their emotion because for you everyone live happily forever which is why you prefer joyful character like lady Hawke.SKRemaks wrote...

It was meant as a reply to an insulting remark from someone who have no clue on how to roleplay a blank slate character.Tommyspa wrote...

Can you make sarcastic bitter and cold/withdrawn Hawke ( due to the death of his family member) ? I can do that with my Cousland due to Cousland's emotionless expression.simfamSP wrote...
Nope. It's horrible for an RPG. I can't create and roleplay my character. Instead I was forced to drive BioWare's blue, purple or red Hawke all the way
That lies with your ability to roleplay, not the game's execution. I managed to make a
Sarcastic Hawke who angers quickly; hates being lied to; enjoys violence; knows when to shut up; has very little moral boundries and has a fetish for elves. She likes being paid for any favours she does and has a weak spot for children. She's understanding, yet can't tolerate arrogance and has a general dis-respect for authority figures, mostly because it collides with her own authority.
I could do more in Origins, but from the options given to me in DA2, I can do alot.
I bet you can't, since your dear uncle Gamlen will recognize you as a clown? Remember those funny faces you make while waiting for Aveline to show up in Hangman? or wait, your sarcastic Hawke joyfully entered Kirkwall not long after his/her brother/sister died crushed by the Ogre.
Is that the kind of your sarcastic Hawke? /sarcasm.
Yes I can, and I did. Easily.
Picking the right options you can do many things. After her mother died I wasn't picking any sarcastic/witty options, even when her LI came she was a ****. Hell, you should have seen her after the Qunari started rioting...she was NOT in the mood.
But three years later she got on with her life.
As I said... you can do a lot, but not as much as Origins. A silent protagonist is always preferable, but not a requirement.

You're right, but next time, when pointing out flaws, being specific helps.
Bad fetch quests would have been better, no? Because look at the Sacred Ashes quest. That's just one long drawn out fetch quest, as well looking for Branka. But they were great quests.
The Witcher is easily 85% fetch quests, yet it's an amazing RPG.

The camera was facing you're back for a reason y'know? You're supposed to imagine your Warden's emotions. You're supposed to make up your Warden's tone. That's the beauty of a silent protagonist.
As you can see poster who's very angry of DA2 (not you, the other guy.) I'm not taking sides here.

Picking neutral options turn this part around. Of course you're going to get something out of character when you're aiming to be Cloud but keep picking the damned sarcastic options.
By the way, you're a very bitter person. You should check a therapist out, or maybe today's not your day? Who knows...

Some characters deal with their emotions and heartbreaks through humor. Some people show no emotion. The warden's emotions and heartbreak is left to your headcanon.which is fine. I would have loved to have my warden (human noble) creack a smirk or smile when confronting Howe. It would have been nice to see that on screen.

If anything, I didn't like how my sarcastic Hawke automatically tells Ninette's husband, "Your wife isn't coming back, but here's a ring. It looks shiny!", with no input from me. I like playing characters with a sense of humor, but I don't also want them looking like an a**hole at times just because their dominant personality is sarcastic.

I certainly had fun. More fun than I had with the plodding pace of Origins.
Going to have to agree with this. Much as I love DA:O, it had major pacing issues that DA2 did much better.
