Biggest regrets?

In game, getting fooled by Bhelen as a dwarf noble. My ambition got the better of me.

Making the deal with the demon when "saving" Connor. It wasn't out of character at all, but that one felt super nasty; I think because no one ever knows but you, and you still get hailed as a hero for it.
Yep.. me too, Sarielle.
However, there is a trick to this... well, two, but I didn't know you could intimidate the Demon into getting what you want *and* leaving...
The thing is, we were both Magi... so we knew exactly how long Connor was *really* going to last...
Tell me how long this boy is going to survive in the Circle Tower before Gregoir and Irving make him Tranquil?
He has already shown himself too weak... there is only one fate for Connor, and all Magi know it.
Poor Connor...

I killed Connor for the first time last night and was devastated for about an hour, even after reloading and choosing to go to the Circle for help. The conversation you have with him where he basically says that he's willing to die if it means no one else gets hurt was just utterly heartbreaking.
My first playthrough I wanted blood magic so I made the deal with the desire demon. My thought process, Connor would go to the tower and get some training, and when the desire demon came back for her prize, either he'd have the strength to face her on his own, or failing that, he'd be in the mage tower where the templars would quickly dispatch him.
When I finished the game and you learn that he disappears in the night a few weeks after you save Ferelden, before he can be sent to the tower, and his mother and father search for him for years before finally giving up hope - I felt like the worst kind of bastard.
Oh... right.
Serves me right for being in a spoiler forum

And Cailan dying. He was young and foolish, but seemed like a very nice guy. I wanna find out more about him, but there's still no RtO on PS3.

I regret slaughtering practically everyone in Haven, even though it was self-defense. So far as I can tell (am I wrong?), they weren't really harming anybody until Brother Genitivi started snooping about. It would have been better if nobody ever heard of the ashes, and Eammon died. I don't see any reason why Teagan couldn't perform his role at Landsmeet and surely saving Conner & the town ought to give him enough incentive to help me..

Killing Connor. He was so very dignified and resigned about it.
Reloaded, and accepted Isolde's sacrifice instead. It's the least she could do for instigating the death of so many people.
Alistaire didn't like it one bit when Jowan used Isolde (with her permission) to power his blood magic that sent my character into the Fade to deal with the desire demon possessing Connor.
Back at camp, he confronted my character and she lost 20 points approval! OUCH! OUCH!! OUCH!!! That ticked me off, too, because it dropped him from around 85 approval to 65 approval.

Sometimes, lying is the most honest thing you can do.

Like Thor, I was honest with Ruck's mother. Then everytime I went to the Orzammar shops after that, I had to watch her grieving over a son who was worse than dead. Later characters were a bit less soft (do players get "hardened"?), and did what Ruck asked and lied.

Yes, this one is quite terrible if you are honest with her, as she decides to venture into the Deep Roads herself, where she'll most likely either be quickly killed or become a ghoul herself - or worse - broodmother to replace the one I killed. I was even afraid Ruck might kill her or himself when he saw her. I felt no guilt about lying to her. I wished there had a been a better option to 'redeem" Ruck.

Sorry, I figured on a "regrets" thread most people would have tried several versions of things by now.

Yeah, that ended badly. My vengeance against Bhelen was sweet, but seeing Harrowmont run Orzammer into the ground...not so much.

In one of my saves I recruited Loghain and felt terrible afterwards. Poor Alistair.
Pah !! Poor Alistair my arse, he acts like an impetulent child if you recruit Loghain, he needs to get over himself and remember to embrace the ethos of the wardens " anything for the good of the country " lol :0)
( sorry, I'm doing a runthrough as an evil character atm, I think it's rubbing off on me )

I regretted killing the Desire Demon at the Broken Circle, after I discovered that killing the demon didn't free the Templar, and reading his diary. I suppose they must have been killed when the Templars returned anyway, though.

You're wrong. There's a house on the left just as you enter the town. Right after speaking to the surly guard, explore it thoroughly.
Edit:
Oh, ah, regrets:
1. Putting Harrowmont on the throne. Disastrous for the dwarves and bad for the rest of Thedas, too.
2. Letting Vaughn Kendalls go on my last playthrough, even though I swore I would never do that (even though it's metagaming). To be fair, Soris never said what Kendalls did specifically: he just said he "stole something that was mine," so my HNF didn't know the extent of his depravity, but still, it left a really bad taste in my mouth!

A close second is killing Connor. It would have been a lot easier if he hadn't been so grown up about it.

Other than that, putting Harrowmont on the throne ranks pretty high. Picking the Templars over the Mages was another one I regretted.

Second, I missed Deygan, the injured Dalish in the Brecilian forest. Um, Dalish elf, you're supposed to be skilled in wandering through the forest! I feel bad that he died in that game, but at least he hasn't in my subsequent games (though my blood mage will probably leave him for dead...ugh. He's such a jerk. :-p)
