We don't know the entire cast that well yet in Inquisition, but none of them strike me as lunatic fighting for their cause and ours type. Its kind of hard to describe what im looking for in such a character. I mean of course my own vision is a mix of the Joker (of Batman fame) and if at all possible renegade Commander Shepard (Femshep or Sheploo)

 

On one hand you have to walk a careful line with this guy or girl, because they'd be unpredictable and never trusty worthy but I could see a case for having them with you as oppose to against you. On the other hand this would be the type of character I wouldn't mind butting heads with over everything, assuming im not playing a like minded inquisitor.

So, basically, another Anders.

 

Nah. One was enough.

DA2 exceeded Dragon Age's crazy budget.   They won't have enough spare crazy for another bonkers companion until at least the fifth game.

We had plenty... And nope, we don't need more of them. Also, every companion in DAI has a goal, a cause if you want. As for crazy, well, only time will show.  :lol:

I'd call the entire DA2 cast insane in their own way.

Anders wasn't crazy in my opinion he was just Angry,  also Justice/Vengeance. I'm thinking more demented than anarchist.

Both games have enough crazy companions already.

 

As the Warden once said in Awakening: "Some of my best friends have wanted me dead."

The execution of anders was something I was not fond of. He was so whiny, now someone like the joker except in the more chaotic neutral sense would be interesting.

I'll pass, unless they are 100% optional.  Though I still wouldn't want the devs wasting resources on a character like that.  Just my opinions, of course...

If you mean "crazy" as in mentally unstable...no...that's either going to be messy (Anders) or just offensive, tbh. 

 

If you mean like a neurotic Chaotic Evil or Trickster or other such character....I am totally down with that.

Anders was a special sort of tragic crazy. Let's not have one like him before Dragon age: The continuation, hm?

Well your opening post covered:

  • lunatic fighting for their cause
  • you have to walk a careful line with this guy
  • they'd be unpredictable and never trusty worthy

Which describes Anders to the letter.

No mention of Leliana? Anders is far from the only crazy companion we've had lol.

I am obligated to ask, must we use the word "crazy" and link it to mental instability? 

 

Anders had his reasons for his behavior (having a spirit inside of him), but a companion who is actually mentally unstable could come off offensive as veeia said. There are enough inaccurate and damaging portrayals of mental illness existing in the media already.

This no thank you.

 

Anders was more than enough crazy for five DA games.

Don't forget a few other characters from Origins, but okay just Anders.

The origins one at least had the decency to keep it to themselves for the most part.
