Just as I had predicted, I don't like any of the 3 and their opinions have never affected my decisions one bit, their absence wouldn't have detracted from the Inquisition at all. Pointless, the lot of them. Except maybe Leliana, she did fix the chantry a bit in the epilogue

Josephine: Good for communicating. Money flow and whatnot. Although she suggests doing nothing sometimes, instead of taking advantage of a situation. Dislike that.

Leliana: Good for tricks and secret trading. Can be pretty gnarly and badass sometimes. Othertimes, her solutions have me scratching my head. 

Cullen: Straightforward. Rarely makes any stupid decisions in my opinion. The most heavily 'limited' of the group due to the nature of some assignments. But he's kickass.

The illusion of advisement in the game has a great deal of value. Even if some people think that they are useless, having characters that voice their opinions and provide advise, however little you made heed it, fleshes out the setting and makes the organization look more believable. I mean, this is an organization. Would it just be the Inquisitor by him/herself sitting in a throne room just doing whatever he/she wants without anyone who stays behind to run the day-to-day operations? Personally, I don't see the appeal in having that kind of vacuum in this particular setting.

 

Let's look at the Warden-Commander's setup in Awakening. Would Vigil's Keep really seem like a convincing, organized stronghold for the Wardens without anyone other than your combat-ready companions there?

I figure the day-to-day stuff could be run by whatever followers you don't take with you, for exemple all 3 of the warriors are better qualified than cullen. I guess it makes them feel important to have fancy titles despite being butlers at best

Iron Bull and Blackwall probably wouldn't do better than Cullen.

Cassandra? Likely.

I don't suppose there's much use arguing the merit of having more memorable characters play the roles of the day-to-day folk, then. I'd much rather have them than some generic pencil-pushers and plain old soldiers that just do whatever in the background. Blight take that nonsense. Qualifications don't matter. None of the companions are qualified automatically in the fact that they can leave with you all the time.

 

We don't need Steve Cortez, because some regular Joe guy can fly the shuttle to the same effect. We don't need a Joker character, because the writers can just make anyone fly the ship since we're just pointing and clicking on the galaxy map. It's not a matter of them having actual use for the game, it's to have real characters fill the roles.

Cassandra for sure yes, she basically did his job but for the divine. Iron Bull has a merc company and he comes off as smarter than cullen (not hard but still), Blackwall was/is a Warden-Constable, the rank just under Commander, he's plenty good enough.

Anyone that can leave with the Inquisitor to go on missions isn't qualified.

Blackwall's a liar, Iron Bull is only good on field battles.

Cassandra's got some experience and some dragon slaying. Cullen has Kirkwall under his belt and the Circle Tower.  Would be a tough decision. 

[Doominike]

Cassandra was above everyone in the chantry military wise except for the lord seeker and the divine herself. You can find letters written by and to Blackwall, signed Warden-Constable Blackwall. Bull was a high ranked Ben Hassrath before becoming the leader of a merc company.

 

Cullen's experience is surviving a demon outbreak in the Ferelden circle, because the bloodmages let him live. And being Meredith's second -in-command in Kirkwall, where he blindly followed that bigoted hag for 7 ****ing years before deciding to tell her off, but only because she was going literally insane and was opposed by the city's hero. The guy is only there because a bunch of fangirls like him for some reason
