Granted I did choose the 'angry' personality for him but did anyone else think this? When you finally meet Hawke you're about halfway through the game, your inquisitor's just starting to get buddy with his fellows and then you get a blast from the past. The previous protagonist that you spent hours with, making friends killing demons and generally having a good laugh with is all alone. He never used to be so vehemently against blood magic but now as if he's projecting his own failures he can't help but berate it like a bitter old man who couldn't protect his city and family.

 

Though I didn't do it I think leaving him to die with honour would have been the best choice.

My Hawke was female, so...

 

no.

 

But she seemed stressed out by her responsibilities. She seemed tired, but willing to do what she had to in order to protect the world.

 

Kind of jarring then that she seemed excited to go to Weisshaupt.

In DA2, I played Hawke as a lonely and broken women who over the space of ten years got her entire family murdered and ruined the life of everyone she cared about, so it seemed pretty in character for my game!

 

Except the anti-blood-mage bit....

My Hawke saved her magi sister. So her life isn't all bad.

I had Hawke kill her at the end.... magic must be exterminated.... she could have been a blood mage, there was no room for error.

 

But yes OP, he seemed VERY lonely lol

I think what you see in DAI is a Hawke weary of being a hero but unable to set aside that burden. Eventually, they realize that the Inquisitor is filling that role amicably, and going to Weisshaupt is Hawke's way of "stepping aside."

That is consequence of walking path of the loser that Hawke was always walking (with exception of act 1).

1. You make it sound that Hawke chose that path.

 

2.Most of it was not hawke's fault anyway.

S/He chose that path, or rather should i say was way too much inept to be successful. Many tragedies that Hawke had to face could be averted if Hawke used brain instead just muscles as well if he started to do something about situation before it was too late.

This. I never felt like s/he was OOC, just emotionally exhausted.

I have so much love for Failure Hero Hawke.

I love Hawke for that very reason and why I wished DA2 had much more time in development. I think it would've been the best game in the franchise. He's such a human character, he makes lots of mistakes. There's so many triumphs in his journey but what makes him so intriguing is that he has an equal amount of tragedy. That's what made him so well rounded. In DAI, he was so broken and tired...So sad to see.

Broken? Most definitely. His/her world has literally crumbled around them. All of their family are either dead, should be dead, or have joined an order in which they're never likely to see each other again. Friends have scattered to the winds. Forced to leave his home, TWICE. And he set loose a man monster who wants to take over the world.

 

If he/she wasn't broken, he/she would be psychotic.

I played her as diplomatic most of the time, but I played DA2 recently and made her sarcastic.  I feel like under all the crap that was thrown her way she still ended up more on the glass half full side of things rather than being broken.  She just used sarcasm to mask frustrations.  Also, Hawke still has that ass of a sibling in Carver in my game (and Bethany in her diplomatic runs).

No they did not.Everything they did was for there families sake or to stop being poor. Then they got hired to deal with something the city was hell bent not to allow to be fix by the head of the city it self. Sorry but it's not hawke's fault. And hawke did use their brain to solve the problem, It just people keep coming in to make said problem worse.

After the end of DA2 how can any Hawke be a glass half full type of person?

In that case it's his own fault, and he shouldn't feel broken about it.

Yes they did.LoL. what does that have to do with Hawke being failure?

Me: Hawke is a failure and many cases it was his inaction or stupidity

You:Nope , he tried to help his family (in what he failed too) so he isn't a failure.

Me:Wut?

Many things were once again hawke fault because Hawke chose act too late or was too dumb about it ,ending as pawn like with Petrice ,Talis or Isabela case.

What i fail to understand about Hawke is why he removed the seals from COrypheus prison out of the player controls? 

i don't release terrorist magister into the world because i think that i can kill them

 There thing you can do to try to solve thing but when thing in the environment that are gunning to counter anything you do that you can't control, how can you say you are at fault?

 

The darkspawn killed on of hawke sibling. Nothing they could about that. Nothing hawke could do to stop that orge.

 

One of his sibling get tainted. Nothing hawke can do but not bring them there and they still lose them any way to the circle or templers.

 

Hawke's mom died. Even if Hawke warned her they would of still lost her being that this was a blood mage and they though she went on a date.

 

The Qunari uprising. The qunari were stress and could not leave with out the book which Hawke did not know where it was at. Add, people of the chantry who Hawke can't control egged the qunari on by attacking them.

 

The mage uprising. Hawke can tell Anders to leave from Act 2 and the man is still there to bomb the chantry.

 

 

Sorry, but How can Hawke be a failure for things out of their control. What could even be done. Even if Hawke was not involved all this would of happened except for  Cory and the idol getting lose....And Hawke would of still be hunted down to use them to release Cory.

What other way does Hawke have out other then killing Cory? Cory was at his weakest then an only got away because Wardens were around.

My Snarky, Isabella romancing Hawke was neither broken nor lonely when I met him in Inquisition. He was still cheerful and fun loving.

 

Blame your choices I guess.

??

When people perceive something to be their fault, they tend to feel more guilty about it, not less.
