I hope you didn't forgive Anders or Sten then either you know for consistency. 

 

 

Or Isabella. Her actions lead to the Qunari being in Kirkwall in the first place. And many died because of it.

 

 

He's punished himself more than anybody else could've. Following your logic, why not have him die for the inquisition instead? Why not let him die in battle? WHy would you just waste him like that? Blackwall did bad things, but he's different from other people like him because he accepts it and he is ready to atone for what he did. Having him serve the inquisition, freely, is the only thing that he has left after the destruction of the southern wardens. Plus he'll probably be helping the inquisition rebuild the southern wardens, as they seem more accepting of outsiders and have extended their roles.  

 

- I did forgive Sten and spare Zevran two out of three DA:O playthroughs (the third trying a run with just Alistair, Leliana and Morrigan). There are some differences, but I'll concede to your point that it was largely the same, although Sten never knowing got his own people killed over the course of many years. I suppose I was more 'in character' for my wardens and they had a more utilitarian view. In this game the Inquisition is brimming with good men and I don't see the need for one more warrior when I have to harm the reputation of the inquisition for his crimes.

 

Were it me, I can't imagine I'd actually release Sten, would you really release a man who just murdered a family in cold blood?

 

- As for Isabella, she never gave me a chance to, since I disagreed with her once in a while and never had her in my party. Therefore she was only like at about 25% friendship and was just some girl who ran off with the book forever when her behavior caught up with her.

 

- I always executed Anders. Him being alive would be a huge danger for Kirkwall and he brought it upon himself.

 

- I don't see how the life of a warden is that much of a punishment. Their lives aren't that short by medieval standards and don't seem that more dangerous, less in fact, than mercenary work. Again, he turned himself in to Orlais where he commited his crimes. I'll let Orlais judge him as is their right.

I regret nothing! 

[Lulupab]

Kept Anders alive and regretted nothing. Its the only romance that gets recognition from the whole DA2 game. If romanced Anders and kept alive Hawke gets a quite different codex, indicating him and Anders helped circles break away from the Templars.

[Augustei]

Only one I can think of is Let Ser Ruth go on her suicide mission on the war table.
Part of me regrets it, letting A Warden go off to die like that when the Order is on the brink of collapse.
At least she got me some new recruits from far flung corners before dissapearing

I'm not sure if this counts for this thread, but I have two things that have negatively impacted my subsequent play-throughs:

1) Romancing Blackwall as my first female Inquisitor. I was so upset with the way that played out, I am still not talking to him (have done multiple play-throughs). I only recruit him in case I want the Grey Warden Treaties. Last time I exiled him with the Wardens

2) Romancing Solas as a female elf Inq Mage. Definitely the best story-wise. But I am now holding a grudge against Solas, and he sits on the bench!

Wardens are mentioned to have lifespans shorter than the average person's in Thedas. Combine that with all the other secrecy and isolation from the general populace, it is very hard on them. As far as the reputation of the inquisition goes, they just saved Thedas from an ancient Tevinter Magister in a situatuion where nobody else would've. They're already legends, having Blackwall doesn't change this, and since he helps kill corypheus(should you have him in your party,) it is atonement for what he has done.

Lets just cut out the middle man and say being female is your regret

 

trololololo....

[Carmen_Willow]

1. Siding with the mages. Even as a mage, I am so appalled by their decision to submit to Tevinter Magisters that I simply cannot count on them to help us.

2. Recruiting Sera. I don't like her, I never use her, but like many I find it hard not to recruit people. I have to learn to say "no."

3. Accidentally letting my clan get murdered.

4. Accidentally letting Vivienne become Divine. (I LIKE Cassandra as Devine. she will do her best to do what is good.)

5. Letting Ritt get killed by not getting to her soon enough.

 

 

 

 

I do execute Anders (with one exception - just to see how it came out).

Isabella always runs off with the book.

I recruit Sten solely because I need the experience points from his quests, but I NEVER take him to Haven, although I think in the long run, recruiting him fosters a better understanding for the Qunari of Fereldens.

I always recruit Zevran because he's a professional , and Grey Wardens take help wherever they can find it, but he seldom goes out with me. 

I always recruit Nathaniel too, even though he's thinking of killing me, for the same reason as Zevran, but he ALWAYS goes out with me..

[Melbella]

Only a few from my first game:

 

Picking the wrong option for Clan Lavellan and they got wiped out (n/a this time around since playing as human)

Accidentally hardening Leliana so she goes bat**** crazy by game end (fixed in 2d game)

Picking wrong option on the Warden missions post-Adamant (also fixed in 2d game)

[AtreiyaN7]

The time I screwed up my Warden-related war table missions and ended up accidentally killing them off due to choosing the wrong advisors...woops.

[Ghost of Abraham Lincoln]

Buying DA 2 the day it came out.

[Maiafay]

You: Oh well, all is forgiven, no punishment for you?

My mindset as multiple Inquisitors was this: Blackwall was mine to deal with. He's my family - all my inner circle is family, even Vivienne. I can't stand the woman, but would defend her to the death if someone messed with her.

So Blackwall running off and trying to do the right thing....I can understand that. I have high regard for that. I couldn't leave him in jail no matter what his crime. He was my problem. I recruited him, I fought with him. During battles, he's not just standing there. He's fighting for his life, the companions lives, and to defeat Corypheus. To repay that kind of loyalty with abandonment? No.

I gave him to the Grey Wardens. It was Blackwall's destiny anyway, and he can do more good as a grey warden than dead and rotting in the ground. It was a decision I felt most fair.

Making Cole a spirit in my first PT and reconciling Briala and Celene.

[CathyMe]

Recruited Viv and Sera. And I still pick them up every PT because my OCD kick in and forces me to pick all the party members. That and I also want to get the dialogue with VIv in which my IQ support the mages, in case it adds points towards Lelliana becoming devine (if that makes sense). Now i'm actually starting to enjoy seeing "Viviene greatly dissaproves" .

[BAC PARTY CITY]

I regret not being able to save Stroud. And not being able to save Gasspard. I don't believe in no win situations but Bioware apparently does.

 

 

And currently I'm regretting recruiting Blackwall, as I decide what to do with him in prison. Let him rot or selfishly free him. Decisions Decisions 

[Colonelkillabee]

I regret that Chantry blowing up at the end of Dragon age 2, along with dat asswhooping the mages got after. Regret that I laughed so hard...

 

Wait, no I don't. Lol.

[(Disgusted noise.)]

Once I slept with Merrill just out of curiosity knowing that I wouldn't confirm a romance with her. Totally felt like a monster afterwards.

I did it with a smile on my face. 10/10 would bang again.

That's cold, thats like offering a cold puppy food then instead kicking it cold. Okay maybe not that much but still damn. Poor Merrill.

Monster! *hugs poor Merrill* Now I won't be sharing her at all with you. Not like ya care anyway swimming in a sea of elves in your own thread

LOL she seemed pretty happy about the whole thing Suddenly shy little awkward girl was living in the nicest house on the block with the hottest bf in the city.

 

Merrill was riveted. I love stories like that.

So did you break it off with her or not? Cause I could have sworn you were saying  you broke it off with her and didn't regret it. Don't be playing word games with me now its been a long day for me, I'm still frazzled after chasing a raccoon out of my house

[Urazz]

After reaching the end, especially the first time, what were your major regrets?

 

Examples:

 

I should not have made Cassandra the divine in a pro-mage game.

 

Leliana scared me with the seemingly unnecessary murder, against my orders, in her personal quest, which made me support Cassandra as divine, despite supporting the mages with an alliance. I do now recognize that that was a mistake, it seems that the chantry needed a ruthless leader to avoid even more civil strife amongst the mages and inside the chantry :-/. It's not a bad point, I think, perhaps there is a lesson in this.

Overall, I think Leliana the best candidate as long as you rescue the mages (and sometimes even if not), while Cassandra is the best choice if you side with the templars and Vivienne not as good in either case, though an acceptable outcome if you're very pro-templar/seeker.

 

I should have put Gaspard on the throne

 

Even reuniting Celene with Briala strongly implies that her rule is solely dependent on her relations with Briala and the Inquisition, while reading the epilogue for Gespard ruling alone and supported through missions, results in a far more stable Orlais oriented towards the north. I wanted to leave Orlais a functional country, but it seems supporting Celene results in the Inquisition assuming a very powerful role (this can, of course, be an intended goal).

Cassandra is also a good choice as Divine if you conscript the mages as they are pretty much back in the Circle somewhat when conscripted.

 

It's not something I regret, like he said you make him better he can help people more efficiently.

I watched both outcomes and human-Cole feels too much selfish for me while spirit-Cole appears to be more generous and helpful.

Human-Cole is more able to help others more easily I think as he understands people more now while Spirit-Cole's powers are stronger and that allows him to help more people.  Either way I think both choices are pretty good character builders for Cole.

Oh hell no, I wuv my Merrill   I don't break the hearts of good people. No, that fate's reserved for Leliana, lol. Morrigan says hi!

 

But no, I could never do that to poor Merrill. Those weepy puppy dog eyes would haunt my dreams. Could you imagine her crying over hawke while working alone on that mirror while he's off in the pearl or whatever? Isabella would defs need to take care of that, if you catch my drift.
