Diplomatic with shades of snarky and angry. Politeness costs nothing and it makes Hawke sound like a profesional. Occasinal jokes and angry bursts are even more hilarious when they come out of nowhere and from person you wouldn't expect them to do so. 100% purple Hawke is a jerk and 100% red Hawke is straight up evil. The diplomatic options are absolutely important.

I think all three aspects of the personality are important we see this in Inquisition, despite having a key personality (Diplomatic, Humerous, Aggressive) Hawke also voices other aspects they are wary, tired...and get angry at the Warden representative for what the Grey Wardens are doing/have done only at very distinct parts (such as when talking to the Inquisitor or when they've fallen in the Fade) do they show the key personality again my favorite when they fall into the Fade is still Purple!Hawke though Hawke: if this is the after life, the Chantry owes me an apology...this looks nothing like the Maker's bosom

Nearly completely Red Hawke. The aggressive/direct options seemed to work better with the story overall, at least to me; the very serious story and it's very serious protagonist. It wasn't one-hundred percent, but blue/diplomatic was only used about two dozen times where it seemed the dominant personality was inappropriate. Never purple.
Aveline and my Hawke got along very well, but Isabela hated me, and I managed to rival Varric!

As Varric said (about his and Purple Hawke's banter): "The laughter just hides the pain" Yes, even my red!Hawke is rather sarcastic than diplomatic, he just rarely used the blue answers, but was not always rude. True, he's a hard case... Details of Ralph's diary (Aveline's scene): The first day after mother's death, what I did not start in The Hanged Man. I went to Aveline, maybe she has any work what can help to forget. But she just helped to remember to my loss and failure. She wanted to speak about. Smile on my face, why not enough this to her? "What is it about the death, that brings out the speeches", I answered, and went away. "Don't lose your friends too, Hawke", I heard... Eh, I don't think, she deserved my sarcasm. Yet I need a mug of that rat urine. The Hanged Man. Again.
(And Varric's rivalry – not succeeded to max): Inside The Hanged Man Varric told a story to the people. About me. Suddenly he finished and waved. What does he want? He's asking about Anders. "what's-His-Name that mage" he said... and warns me that it's a bad idea to live with a possessed mage. Enough, dwarf! My private life's not your story! I angrily left the tavern.

I always go with the hybrid of all 3, but purple is predominant. Personally it's the one I most relate to. Being flippant and preferring to wisecrack at everything is way up my alley, especially when it comes to the varying levels of jerks and scum in Kirkwall.

A combination of all of the ones that weren't purple. Sarcastic Hawke was absolutely disgusting. Yeah, snarky hawke can cross the line sometimes, which can be remedied by choosing blue when s/he does. But snarky Hawke is also the one who makes his/her friends laugh and invites them to get drunk.

I always choose a combination of blue and purple. I can't bring myself to be that aggressive and assertive, not even in videogames lol. I will use the red option seldomly, when I feel Hawke has to be extremely pissed off or angry.

I still go blue, but I find sometimes I pick more red instead of blue. It feels a bit more natural, a "are you kidding me?" kind of response I've been feeling lately.
I suppose that's why these kind of things exist, so the player can reflect as they will on the game world.

Usually sarcastic Hawke because of how well written his dialogues is but sometimes I found that the options presented didn't represent the dialogue he'd say and i'd end up reloading because a light joke suddenly become the mother of all roasts, and then i'd feel like a jerk lol.

if i had to go 100% for a color I would go with red hawke. I dont know theres something about red hawke that suites my kind of hawke who is just tired of everything. However they do have a diplomatic side to them so the percentage would look more like 85/10/5 red/blue/purple respectively.

I like the idea of a Hawke that leans towards each trait per act. Diplomatic for Act 1, when they don't have much in the way of allies or resources and have to protect themselves/their family. Sarcastic for Act 2, when they're better off and can cut loose with less repercussions. And Aggressive for Act 3 when they're So Done with Kirkwall and its shit.

Purple Hawke invites friends for drinks and shows excitement for ordinary things like parties, food and sex. S/He feels more human. Also more flawed. S/He isn't a bad person, but there is a degree of selfishness that makes purple Hawke believable.

It's not selfish if someone doesn't want to solve every problem alone, or thinks, not s/he's the proper person to do it. "Don't worry... helping people and killing people are what I'm best at." "you'll have to be more specific. a lot of things are my fault". Selfish? I don't think so. Of course, Hawle can be selfish. But it's just sarcasm – sometimes strong irony and sometimes just lame humour. And don't forget the charming part of purple Hawke. Purple Hawke isn't selfish, just realist.

I think what Iddy's getting at is that purple Hawke doesn't reflect the Superman, Captain America "no reward is necessary, ma'am!", always gentle and understanding kind of Boy Scout character. Diplo Hawke is closer to that classic heroic ideal. Purple Hawke can express exasperation with petitioners, frequently wants to get paid for their trouble, and constantly sticks their foot in their mouth by saying insensitive things, even if they're fundamentally a good person at heart.

Pfft, Diplomacy. I like to be polite with everyone I meet, and Blue allows that. Not to mention my username is literally Blue Princess so I'm like the Princess of Diplomacy, screw mean Sarcastic Hawke. Yeah most of my Hawke's are a mix of diplomacy and sarcasm. They use sarcasm if they feel they can get away with it but generally diplomatic otherwise.
