Morrigan gets a few good banters but her "im big an im tuff im big an im tuff" thing gets annoying.

"Turns out, mess with someone's head enough and you can turn a scared kid into an all powerful bitch." Bioware's new approach to recycling Viconia designing female NPCs.

Shale seems like a decent character that has a horrible Bioware character on the inside clawing to get out. The "lol shale hates birds XD XD XD" schtick is annoying,

You'd have loved Sten's "lol he likes COOKIES isn't this RANDOM XD XD XD."

Morrigan -> Sten -------------------------> Alistair

The rest aren't even worth mentioning, and those mentioned aren't super remarkable. Hey, it's Bioware though. I enjoyed the game until I got to Deep Roads like everybody else did.

Oh, please. Viconia, bless her heart, is a shallow piece of shit compared to Morrigan. Viconia was a Drizzt wannabe. Unlike that wussy Viconia, Morrigan wants or needs no redemption shit.

Seems like all the people who hate Alistair are also the type to hate Kreia too.

I thought Alistair was an annoying piece of shit who talked like a cretin and replaced him with Shale as soon as I could since I needed a tank. I enjoyed Kreia and had her in my party for my entire KotOR2 playthrough.

What's your problem with Drizzt? Considering your level of literacy and the fact that you adore Bioware so, I'd have thought Salvatore would be right up your alley.

Morrigan is deep because she actually wants to be a pretty princess.

"What's your problem with Drizzt?"

Are you on fuckin' drugs? Where did I claim I had any sort of problem with Drizzt DoUrden? Fuckin' morons who cna't fuckin' read is fuckin' hilarious for fuck sakes.


" I enjoyed Kreia and had her in my party for my entire KotOR2 playthrough."

I spent the entire game trying to get her out of my party, but the stupid lame ass game didn't let me FFS. From the moment I met her I knew she was a lying piece of fuckin' scum who would betray.

Obviously evil woman is obviously evil. Stupid fuckin' KOTOR. Fuckin's eries that started the BIO/OBS trend of forcing you to keep npcs in your paty. At least DA started the strong climb to getting rid of that garbage of forcing npcs on you.

Really wish you could dump Alistair. He wans't THAT important.

They are all pretty generic and boring. Dog is ok. I would say Sandal is best, at least he's the only one, who doesn't pretend to not be retarded.

I don't think you can compare Alistair to Carth or Anomen.
Anomen is someone you kill in the Copper Coronet as soon as you seem him, Alistair is a p. cool guy actually.

FFS It's disturbing to see so many appreciations for a character who is supposed to be a wild young girl in early twenties (just look at the fucking concept art) , yet looks and behaves like 30+ yo slutty feminatrix and is voiced by a 37 yo "actress".

Alistair is just carrying on a Bioware tradition that started with Carth in KOTOR. There was Sagacious Zu in Jade Empire, and Kaidan in Mass Effect. There must always be a moaner.

For me, the best character in DA was the dog. The worst were Sten (for being an unbelievably cuntish cunt) and Zhevran (for being an irritating little twat).

You forgot Anomen in BG2. Carth is just Starwars Anomen.

Morrigan because of he spirit and Claudia Black.
Oghren is also nice because of his love for booze and women.

I think Alistair is far from a favorite NPC, but he is very consitantly written and gets a plus for that. Consistant personality is always good. Annoying is not.
