Who / What do you think the main Antagonist / Villain of DA3 will be? Reading all the online buzz gives me the feeling that Flemeth and Morrigan could be a clear Antagonists in this game - But that is yet to be confirmed. I say Morrigan because she has always had an evil side to her and I could see her play a villain-like role. Could the antagonist be a mage or a templar ? A darkspawn? A QuNari like in DA2? Or maybe a past character from origins? What are your predictions?

1) Morrigan and\\or Flemeth for main antagonists no WAY too predictable. Morrigan isn't evil per se she's just a cold hearted individual.

2) Mage and\\or a templar, the only way I can see it being a mage if the mage has little to no affiliation with the opposing sides, unless if he\\she was manipulating the way to the top of both sides.

3) A darkspawn maybe but not as the main Antagonist perhaps as a story obstacle.

4) Qunari hmm that could be a possibility but I wouldn't like it too obvious.

5) Yes a past character from Origins, and it will be Oghren he thinks you took his pants and he's out for revenge. But in all seriousness no, most characters except for Leliana and dlc characters have multiple fates and if BioWare wants to retcon any of those possible fates for an antagonist. Well it wouldn't be pretty just look at how the whole Leliana debacle went down.

Hmm I would have no real predictions because we do not know specifics about the story and it will be near impossible to predict at this point in time. But I would like BioWare to make me constantly guess and try to figure out who is the person or people behind the silver curtain kind of thing.

Whoever happens to fundamentally oppose you and what you're trying to accomplish based off previous player decisions and loyalties.

Grand Enchanter Fiona / Lord Seeker Lambert Van Reeves depending on who you side with. Other Villains could be Empress Celene or Grand Duke Gaspard.

The main villain should depend on whose side you pick, because one of the problems with DA2 is that no matter who you side with, you always have to fight both sides. For what, an extra boss battle? Excuse me, but is this the same company that decided a boss battle at the end of ME3 would be too 'video gamey'? Anyways, in my opinion, if you side with the templars, the villain should be some big mage figure, and if you side with the mages, the villain should be some big TEMPLAR figure. If you choose to somehow make peace in between the two, you should have to fight both, or neither, and you would have to fight somebody else. I don't think the Flemeth/Morrigan conflict is going to be done with DA3, although I DO think things are going to be cleared up a bit. DA4 is probably going to end the conflict. Although I wish it would end in DA3.

Its a bit too early to know, but from the impression I got, the whole mage/templar thing is a problem, but there's an even bigger problem, and its being caused by a mysterious person or group. That is who the ultimate enemy will be. Whether its Flemeth, which I hope it isn't, or whether its a whole group of bad guys, thats who the main villain(s) will be, it doesn't really seem like the final fight will be against a simple mage or templar, both sides are pawns in the game of chess the mysterious force is playing with the Inquisitor. Thats the impression I get, only time will tell.

Flemeth as main villain.
Morrigan supporting the protagonist.

While Flemeth may possibly not be the main villain of DA3, I think it's quite clear that Morrigan and Flemeth are by now hostile towards eachother, and Flemeth is up to something big, + in the leaks it says somebody is pulling the strings, Flemeth fits into that description (as I understand it) hence why I suspect the possibility of her being the main villain, but I might very well be wrong.

I have a feeling that who is behind it all could be a familiar character - It would be a great twist.

A puppetmaster. Which sounds like what we're going to get so I'm happy.

Sandal.
In Starchild mode... he'll appear last minute to explain (in his goofy self) how the old gods have been searching for a solution for mages and templars to coexist and thus created the circles as a means of bringing them together in hopes to discover this solution. He'll then tell you that you have three options... destroy all magic (thus killing all those who are mages), control all magic (thus taking away all mages free will), or combine all magic (thus forcing everyone to gain the ability to utilize magic). There will be an option to stab Sandal with the infamous magicly appearing knife that your character always carries, but this will result in Sandal exploding a massive wave of "magic" that destroys everyone and everything.

That's my dream ending.

At first the PC will get recruited as Inquisitor thanks to his/her involvement in saving an important member of the Inquisition (Cassandra). You will then be forced to go with Cassandra on a mission to stop an evil overlord from ruling/destroying the whole world.
But then  the PC will turn out to be Darth Revan the evil overlord's former master/true antagonist.

classic.

I don't know why people assume Flemeth is evil. In both games she saves the hero from certain death. Villains don't usually save the hero, sure they may arrogantly spare the hero's life because they think he/she is no threat. But villains don't go out of their way to save a heroes life.

I'm going to say if the villain is someone we've already met before, its going to be Corypheus. The fact that Corypheus lives no matter what, tells me that Bioware has future plans for him, so he's the most likely to show up again and make our PC's life miserable.

Well it's always been assumed that she is doing it for a much more sinister reason. Like you're just a pawn in her evil plan. 
I however think it's the apposite. I think we are meant to believe that, but infact she is the heroine of the series. Her plan is set to help defeat, whatever evil is afoot.

 Rumor has it that Caldia Black is doing voice work for the game so perhaps the Morrigan/Flemeth storyline will come to a head, but personally I think they should be a focus of the overarcing series storyline instead if any Dragon Age games individual. Maybe let us pick a side in a Morrigan Vs Flemeth side quest that doesn't efect DA3 much, but has large payoff when it finally comes to a conclusion.

Hawke as the antagonist would be cool, if a bit of a Player Punch. He's not evil, he's just a wo/man that chosen to do what s/he feels is right. And so have you. Of course, it could also end up with you as close allies. I'm telling you Bioware, you're missing so much potential if you leave Hawke out of this.

Altertavely an extremist Mage and/or Templar that wants to take out the enemy army. If you add this to the Hawke suggestion, then the villain who would normally be in that army is unable to get the support due to Champion convincing the rest of his side that extreme methods are to far. The potential big bad instead appears somewhere else in a more minor but no less important role.
Or if you can't get Hawke in the game then they're both a problem and you either have to pick a side and either way a psycho wins or Take a Third Option and take them both out but you will lose companions and friendly NPCs(including past companions.)

Or it's an outside force playing both sides and looking to benefit from the war. Like a powerful abomination or an Orlesian Noble playing The Game.

I imagine she's your direct superior. Her or Leliana or Cassandra.
I for one imagine I'll work with her to handle this peacefully, as she at least agrees that mages have been poorly treated.

This is what I'm thinking too. Regardless of who the antagonist is he, she or it will most certainly be taking advantage of the chaos and likely actively played a role in creating it.

And do you think that a mere Inquisitor could beat him?
Seriously though, no inspiration from Bleach. WRPG shouldn't be inspired by Japanese manga or anime.

I'd like it to be someone who infiltrated your party, is disguised as an ally.
(I guess that is fairly reminiscent of Anders betraying you in a way..)
I just think it would be interesting if throughout the game, all these evil things are occurring and as your party is disgusted and repulsed by these acts it's actually one of them putting them into motion.

I predict it may be a religious nut though of sorts. Dragon cult, devout Andrastian, Black Divine, etc.
