Did Hawke do more harm than good?

Corypheus escaped cause he was clever no matter what choice Hawke made.
My Hawke ditched Talis and wanted nothing to do with her, the duke wouldn't let him leave so yeah.
My Hawke tried to report Anders more than once.
Hawke only wanted a better life for him and his family. it's all Bertrand's fault for what he did with the idol piece.
I can't think of a single thing my Hawke did to cause the problems to get worse.

To answer the question, Hawke was supposed to be a catalyst for inevitable events, so I don't know if he did harm or good that wouldn't have happened eventually anyway. It's a great setup for DA:I though!
Umm... wasn't Anders the catalyst. Hawke was just some guy who killed a big Qunari. Outside of that (saving the city) he doesn't have much to do with the events concluding DA2 or the state of affairs in DA3.
Sounds like he did more in the DLC's than anything he did in the main game.

Nope. Hawke has probably caused more pain and suffering than anyone else in the current age. All without meaning to.Zack_Nero wrote...
I might be missing a few, but these were the big ones that came to my mind. So is Hawke really that helpful to begin with?
I greatly expect that whoever is behind the Veil tearing was empowered or freed by Hawke.

Hawke should've let the Arishok take Kirkwall. That way Meredith, Orsino and Ander would have never had their stupid moments in Act 3.
That could have sparked a continental reaction from other nations seeing it as an act of an invasion by the Qunari.
That would have been something we all would have liked, if a Qunari invasion force was shown in the same manner as the witcher 2 ending.

It won't surprise me that much

You forgot Hawke found the idol that made Merredith crazy which lead to the events that lead to the ending of DA2.
Going to have to disagree on this. Anyone besides Hawke (and a party of that caliber) would probably have been screwed trying to deal with the tunnel collapse (dragon anyone?), and would definitely not have survived the rock wraith.

Hawke didn't make anything worse. Because all the things that happened. (quanari, meredith going crazier, the mages rebelling) would have happened one way or another. Hawke was just there, trying to help hers/his family. and I think hawke accelerated the process but It would have happened anyway.

says who? Who said Varric would not have found someone else? Hawke when he/she went to the deep roads was pretty much a sword for hire. Not the unbeatable champion of kirkwall, defeater of quanari.

Okay, I didn't know that there were other threads complaining about Hawke, so sorry about that. And am sure a lot of people can agree that those thing would of eventually happened. Am just saying did he cause more of it, or it to just happen faster. Like if he/she didn't give Anders motive to fight for his cause. He would got caught by the templars when they first meant to and it would of been a different mage to cause the trouble. Also I want to say again if you let Anders live Sebastian will rasie an army for just one man. Also Corypheus is freed. Yes it would of evenutally happened, but I might of cause more then enough problems to happen.

Assuming that Kirkwall some how managed to repel the Qunari invaders without Hawke. Then I think the mage conflict would have been brutally resolved with Meredith annuling the entire circle or making the entire mage population tranquil. While that might have further reaching consequence, I think it would have quelled the mage/templar conflict within the city of Kirkwall.
So did Hawke do more harm than good? Tough to say, depends on if you think the mage/templar conflict is preferable to Arishok holding the city of Kirkwall.

Yeah, but the Warden can also CHOOSE to not do any of the choices you listed. That's the difference between the two. Hawke just plain screws up no matter what.Arcane Warrior Mage Hawke wrote...

Kirkwall was a powder keg, and Hawke was the unfortunate fuse

He or she just had really great PR, courtesy of Varric.
