I think for now most people are against blackwall or if not against - there is no one who says he is the best character... This says a lot.
Note: Did I forget to say that in my humble view SERA is retarded...
I have nothing against him myself. He's slow to get into, but cool enough. The only bad thing is that I don't like really Grey Wardens in general. He's not a bad example of one though.
Vivienne. She's like Wynne with a whole new batch of bitchyness. Has to get her way or she isn't happy. Throws a fit when she doesn't get her way. Has no likable qualities. She's only involved for her own ends and uses you to try to get more power in the Chantry at least Wynne wanted to be involved in a cause bigger than herself even if she wanted to dictate the path of that cause by threatening to kill the Warden when she doesn't get her way XD. Vivienne just reminds me of the kind of people i really can't stand who are just in love with themselves and put themselves over others by talking down to them.
Vivienne. She's an elitist mage who is trying to play at being a noble and involve herself in the game, and how she looks down on everyone who doesn't fit into how she perceives the world or is outside the framework of what she wants to believe.
Like spirits and demons, she dismisses each and every spirit as a demon. She distances herself from them saying, and rightly so in most cases, that they are dangerous and corrupting influences.
This wouldn't be such a bad thing if she didn't flirt with danger and corrupting influences as part of her past time by playing the Game in Orlesian politics. Cassandra says it well at the ball. They treat espionage, bribery, blackmail, murder and using their servants as pawns as some form of grand amusing game of one-upping each other. Few thing has drawn as much blood as politics, nor is as corrupting because the very nature of the game requires you become corrupt and see people as useful tools and not as actual people with lives that are hurt or destroyed in the game, and that's the very thing Vivienne immerses herself in as her form of entertainment and way to build up her own personal power and influence.
The game requires knowing the nature of everyone around you, and that is something she refuses to learn the full truth of when it involves the Fade and Spirits because her perceptions have limits she cannot move beyond. As she is, she cannot move beyond herself.
And when she debated with Solas and said her consolidating power for herself helped all mages by perception, I merely rolled my eyes at that vain excuse. If that was true, the events of Asunder and the Mage Rebellion would not have happened nor would so many templars be so swing-happy when it comes to mages. All she did was raise her own standing, and I don't see any evidence that she used any of her considerable influence to improve the standing of all mages.
You can hardly say there's no repercussions after
Spoiler
My least fav is probably Vivienne. I know she was meant to be a ******, and great writing, but god it gets on my nerves. Doesn't help that I'm not the biggest supporter of the Circles.
there isnt in fact if you see at the ending of the game, there is no repercussions.
Varric. He's just so ****** annoying. And he feels so out of place there. I always side with Cassandra when they're fighting and never talk to him besides when I have to for story reasons now and I wish I could just tell him to leave. I didn't mind him in DA2 even if he was my least favorite there as well but I just hate him taking a companion slot in DAI. We have no other dwarves in the party cause for some reason we can only get one and that one just has to be that dwarf we already spent a whole game with and is pretty much a human culturally and personality wise. >
Also Scout Harding cause I really dislike Ali Hillis. So sad Dagna is the only dwarf I liked in DAI (not like there were many 
) cause I love dwarves. At least beats the zero from DA2. Hoping for more dwarven involvement in the next game like in Origins.
And while I do not dislike him, Dorian was a huuuuuuuuuge disappointment to me. His cockyness and irony just really didn't do for me. And I hated that his story was about his dad not accepting him being gay, so much wasted potential imo. I really wanted to love and romance him but I didn't.
Blackwall and Solas. Female protags just never get good LI's.
sorry, double post because my wifi crapped out.
Blackwall and Solas. Female protags just never get good LI's.
Funny that I tend to agree with this but in DAI I'm prob always gonna play as a female from now on cause I like the options for females waaaay better (also way more choices :/). Cullen, Solas and Sera are the best romance choices imo.
Cassandra, followed by Cole. Both feel naggy to me.
I liked Sera the most.
Varric got tamed. He is not his old self. What happened?
Id say Blackwall just cos he's incredibly boring IMO, & im not a fan of IB much either thx to having a VO who repeatedly can't decide what version of his Vega voice to use
Sera, if there has to be a character like this why not go the whole hog and have Vicky Pollard, then I'd definitely have her in my party.
Cassandra, followed by Cole. Both feel naggy to me.
I liked Sera the most.
Varric got tamed. He is not his old self. What happened?
The breach happened. He's in a group with Cassandra who interrogated him. He's kind of just..pissed at the world and the greed - it's falling apart and people aren't doing a whole hellava lot to help.
Plus, he's not with Hawke. I think part of Varric's charm was when he was talking with Hawke. Varric feels a little... I'll say - taken.
Sera, she gives me a headache every time I talk to her.

He's a slow burn. He's not flashy, he's staid. He's also older, beardy, not that 'pretty' and you goddammit never see him without his shirt (like they promised in that concept art!) He's got a real sense of humour when you dig down. *shrugs* I'm not seeing 'hate' for him so much as 'meh', but he's definitely a winner for me.
I had a serious banter bug and certain scenes not firing for me at some stage, if you don't take him out then you don't get the dialogue. This really was an issue until after the patch and a repair on the game (for me) I'm getting all manner of great convos with Blackwall now.
I'm seeing a log of Solas and Blackwall dislike. For me...
Without playing I can already say that either Dorian or Sera takes the bottom spot.

One of my friends considers Blackwall's personal quest to be perhaps the best writing in the series. I'm not sure that translates to considering him the best character, but it is high praise.
Did I already answer Sera?
Cause if not then Sera.
I am so sad about it, but the game made me greatly dislike Sera (the rampant misogyny) and Vivienne (ms. 'i never had problems in my circle so clearly my experience trumps that of every other mage ever' pseudo-abuse apologizer bull). Good job BW, I dislike the lesbian and the black woman, excellent decision making there.
I dislike Blackwall and Solas too, but that's just personal preferences rather than moral or political objection. Iron Bull is kind of meh for me too. :/
I'll add to the Sera-chorus. She comes off as a token character of (albeit heavily toned down) nu-4chan/reddit/forzelulz mentality. If Dragon Age is supposed to be a franchise with a mature target audience, why cater so heavily to 13 year olds?!
Cullen's actually a runner up, though that's probably a mix of me never gotten over his Origin-persona and a bit to spite all the fan-hype sourrounding him.
Despite my character having mostly complete opposing believes regarding Vivienne, the character is well written I both IC and OC I do like her. Hell, she'd be my favourite romance option actually.
No one? I like certain points of each character?
