Does anyone else feel uniquely drawn to the advisors?

If you mean drawn to Leliana, then yes. Sadly the Inquisitor can't romance her, or at least attempt to if she's with the Warden.

 

Not so much for Cullen. Josephine is alright.

Love that gif and the scene it's from. The smiles on their faces -- it felt good to see that, especially after the nasty argument they got into after Haven.

 

At any rate, I very much like and value the advisors (though Leliana worries me something fierce), but they lack the development that comes from listening to party banter and the active companions' reactions to situations, places and people. The short little war table chats can't remotely compare to that. And while there is definite potential for bonding over shared "burdens of leadership", it too does not compare to the bonding from wading into battle side by side, from spending so much time travelling and thus living very closely together. While I haven't finished the game, the advisors have so far given a frequent impression of maintaining an element of respectful propriety with their leader. Josephine stresses the importance of this early on, and it is also reflected in the difference between Cullen's and Dorian's reactions to us walking in on their chess match. "Curly" is all ready to jump up and snap to attention and "Sparkler" just teases him while lounging comfortably. The active companions, even those who really do want to subscribe to the sent-by-the-Maker belief, give off much more of a "she's the boss and she may be a literally god-send, but she's also one of us" vibe.

 

So for me, the characters that I am the most drawn to will always be Cassandra, Cole and Solas, followed by Varric and the Dorian. All this is platonic, mind.

Honestly not as much as I thought I would.

I appreciated Cullen's romance arc (and thus grew on me as a character) but in my other runs I tended to ignore him. Not a bad character and certainly one who developed over the series but so many other characters shadow him.

Josephine to me feels like a more involved Kelly Chambers/Traynor. Useful, sometimes good company, and has some really good moments, namely in the beginning when she asks of your background and when you get Skyhold. But certainly not someone I'd want to see past Inquisition. But she's meant to be like that, an involved assistant.

Leliana I'm just glad they included her just for some sort of resolution given her role in the Chantry and history. However I just don't want to see her again after Inquisition as I'll admit she's one character I'm tired of. She already had a major starring role in Origins, her own DLC, a cameo in 2 and a significant role in Inquisition.

If by drawn to, you mean "want to make sweet passionate love" with my QunarInquisitor, then yes.

I'm more drawn to the advisors as well.  I really like them especially Cullen and Josie.  They do feel a little more mature and long term romances. Most of the companions are great, I just prefer the advisors more and I am including Cassandra in that role.
