i kinda hope that was a feign to hide the his involvement in the game. Considering the Crows sound way more chaotic good in VG than the evil assassin guild they were Origins, he might have not succeded in his quest to dismantel that group but instead turned them into something better. Or they totally forgot about Zevs Story and involvement with the crows and redconned them into new organistation purely cause they forgot what they were about in previous titles.

@@TheAzureGhost Didn't really see the Crows as evil considering we could help them in Denerim nothing in their mission pointed to them being evil at least from my point of view, we ended up hunting down and killing bad guys for them after all. They respect their oath and Zevran breaking that oath of always finishing their contract makes it normal for them to hunt him down. As for Zevran being forgettable is really the issue that you can kill him the moment you meet him, in fact its usually a safer mentality to kill first ask questions later.

I have a soft spot for Oghren. Yeah, he's there to get laughs by being a horny drunk but he's more than just comedic relief. He has alcoholism, brought on from feelings of loneliness (and that loneliness is probably why he makes so many clumsy passes at people). I haven't played Awakening to know how I feel about his development there, but I like that in Origins you can give him closure and address his personal life but the alcoholism remains.

If I remember correctly, you need pretty high approval to get more dialogue out of Sten. It's been a long time, though. Wynn also has that half secret deal with her spirit. I'm saddened to hear so many expansion characters are bugged now, I had no problems playing through it back in the day. Then again, I also redownloaded dragon Age 2 and it had 10x the bugs. It made me angry enough at the second game breaking issue that I quit. Arishock completely bugged out and didn't spawn where he was supposed to, becoming unhitable und unkillable. I didn't want to do the route of selling out Isabella. Never been able to bring myself to do it.

Morrigan’s ending in Witch Hunt (as you said, just limited to the first game) is the best ending for the Warden and one of the best endings of any game. It somehow manages to give closure while, at the same time, providing a real sense of a next great adventure for the two of them. So bloody satisfying. On the other hand, doing Morrigan’s romance at 19 or so is probably at least partly responsible for my relationships with several…emotionally difficult women later in life 😂

Ah DAO! One of the few games i actually got the urge to replay immediately after my first run.... And i did! Romanced the queen on the second one, became the king myself. Never got to play most of the DLC's though. By the time they got out, i had migrated to other titles. With that taken into account, out of the original lineup, i had somehow managed to forget some of the characters. Off the top of my head, i could only remember Leliana, Morrigan, Alister, Wynne and Sten. This video reminded me of the others..... But when i try and think about which one was my favorite..... i just can't make my mind up. This is one of the few BioWare games that at the time, despite loving it, i didn't really get too attached to the NPCs. And i don't know why. If was really hard pressed, then maybe i would go for Lelianna. I do remember wanting to romance Wynne at the time.... But that was mostly an inside joke between the then writers and the members of the BioWare forums.

For sure, Morrigan and Alistair are number 1 and 2. And they're also really good together because of the banter. It's easy to have a party that misses some of the good banter in BG2, but DAO really makes you likely to have Alistair and Morrigan together a lot. I like how their romances are connected to the main plot as well. After that it is tricky. Oghren's combination on hilarity and tragedy is cool. Sten's dispassionate perspective and dry humor are great. And Zevran and Leliana are pretty cool as well. It's hard to break the tie there. Zevran was impactful to my first playthrough though so I'll go with 1. Morrigan 2. Alistair 3. Zevran 4. Sten 5. Oghren 6. Leliana.

Oh I hold it VERY against BioWare. Zevran becomes if unromanced freaking Head of one of Antivan Crow houses ! They had both Zevran in DA II mission AND separate table mission string for him in Inquisition. How in the hell did anybody not check notes or replayed old games. So clearly BioWare thought Zevran was important enough to get cameo in DA II, unlike say Morrigan, Wynne and others ... but they also wrote entire string of missions with him. Unlike most of ex-companions. Bioware forgetting him ? It's a disgrace. As for Story Purpose, Zevran is an assassin that failed his assignment, he has no other reasons then swearing allegiance to keep close. Tbh I fail to see major story points why Leliana is with us either, or Wynne - both of them just hang out because they feel like. Only purposeful ones were Allistair and Morrigan. I would compare Zevran situation to Sten, they both keep up with Warden because they have nowhere else to go. Both are expected by most to be dead men. As for purposeless .. eh ? You mention most useless characters like Oghren, Shale and almost all of the Awekening like Velanna which is Morrigan from Wish or Sigrun. I freaking hate Oghren. I wanted to kill him in Awekening for what he did to Felsi. Disgusting swine. Ah now I laugh at banter between Zevran and that swine "Tiny legs getting tired ?" the accent of Zevran alone is killing me there, and Zevran with Leliana about her vision. Zevran is such a troll. He was even trolling Wynne hahah. Why did BioWare not put him in game sooner, I don't know. Would have spared my rage quit over how bad Origins was in first place. If Javik was for me savior of entire Mass Effect 3, then Zevran is clearly savior of Dragon Age Origins for me. Now you can see why I considered the dlc's to this game a slog. 3/4 of my Wardens even left Ferelden immidiately with Zevran by their side. I do not know how BioWare forgot, when Antivans weren't even supposed to have this accent but because VA of Zevran decided to devise it, all Antivans now have this itallianish accent to them.

@@SlanderedGaming Well yes I know their reasonings, they are just very poor ones. That's why I put them under mere excuses to be there. We could argue that Oghren because he had dream in Awekening of seeing Hespith be broodmother and Branka instigating her birthing loads of genlocks, and said genlocks just danced around Oghren asking him to teach them how to read or whether or not he wants tea .. that Oghren is destined to adopt bunch of genlocks in future and raise them. Just because Leliana or Oghren had visions/dreams don't mean they are real. And we know already Maker at best is Solas, and Chant of Light is mostly wrong. I find it more valid to stick to Warden because you basically will be hunted by fellow Crows for failure, like Zevran had to consider - which was accurate given loyalty check for him. Or seeking more honorable death like Sten did, because he was dead man either way - be it in cage or if he returned to report without his sword. Wynne just looked for excuses too, which was especially evident if you play Circle of Magi Warden.

I mostly agree, but I’d rank Leliana near the bottom, DA:O-A Anders slightly above her, and Shale is a few steps lower than he is here… Anders gets a lot more interesting between Awakening and 2 - he’s one of my favorites in 2, maybe the best Shale is really funny and cute sometimes, but just not quite as compelling of a character as Loghain I genuinely don’t like Leliana 😂 Idk man, these church girls who don’t know if they’re angels or devils just doesn’t do it for me 🤣

i can't go there, can't forgive Loghain. At least he will have to go to jail, i won't kill him personally, but im ok if Alistair does it, makes for a good initiation and message, right before he becomes king. Sets an example for the country and shows to everyone that even though he is cool and funny, he can if he has to, be the bad guy. All kinds of f up

@SlanderedGaming he basically killed the King, his army, probably important commanders, the Grey Wardens, put the country at risk from foreign enemies, and a lot more, there's no way he gets to be alive irl btw. Best case scenario he gets jail.

i could add that probably part of his group get executed, some jail, some disbanded, some moved in washing the clothes for other parts of the army, i wish i could forgive him but borders into breaking immersion.

While mechanically Alistair is strong. I actually found him to be worst companion because of his personality. So much so that as soon I could I stopped using him. And did not even bother with him that much by the end. And in my main party were the best characters Leliana, Oghren and Wynne and from time to time Shale and Morrigan.

Ehh... my DAO character was always a VERY racist elf-supremecist. So I was firmly on Solas' side. Too bad we'll never get a conclusion to the story (I refuse to accept veilguard as anything more than a fanfic A'la Rings of Power)

I am more angry over lack of DA 2 characters. Besides Varric, none of them showed up. I waited more then 10 years to see Fenris, Merrill, Isabella or even Anders. How is Merrill or Fenris NOT involved, when first has her Eluvian pretty much fixed but inactive and Solas activates them .. and Fenris whether romanced or not partakes in freeing slaves in Tevinter anyways. Just like Solas does. And Anders should have been in Tevinter himself ! There is nowhere else he could go. Isabella should have been smuggler helping in Antiva anti-qunari resistance as well ... let's not forget unromanced Zevran should be in Antiva himself as he becomes head of one of Antivan Crows houses.
