Which companion do you dislike the most in origins and why?
I like all the companions except for Wynne. I find her annoying, especially when I play a mage warden, since the last thing that they want to do is to go back to the circle. I don't usually recruit her, but when I do I ignore her.

I like all of DA:O companions. I found all interesting and fun. Loghain a villain, ofc, but if Warden recruit him, he is a good team mate (and a respectful "father" of the Cousland Warden. "…and you are my son" – his face is priceless at the coronation ceremony). (From whole DA series I only dislike Vivienne and Sera. These are also interesting characters –Sera less interesting for me–, but very annoying.)

None. Wynne can be annoying sometimes but not enough to dislike her.

And of all the companions he is my least favourite. So of course that's who they went with in Awakening...

Loghain has never been a companion for me since I've never played the game in a way that he could become a companion. Loghain being a companion is not even an option in my DAO game world because I'm so against everything he does. I was hoping that when I read The Stolen Throne that I'd come to understand his decisions because of his past, but after reading book, in my opinion, he was mean and vengeful from an early age.
Otherwise I'm ok with the rest of the companions even if my warden avoids some of the for various reasons.
ETA: Had the wrong book name at first

For some reason or other, I liked Oghren better in Awakening than in Origins, but I still didn't really connect with him as much as the others. I don't hate him though; I don't even dislike him. I'm kind of lukewarm, I guess - except for some admittedly chuckle-worthy moments. Other than that, I have never recruited Loghain, so I don't really consider him a companion.

But this is only a delayed execution: first: the taint, second: Loghain is a fine sacrificial material... and he can redeem himself. Do not kill someone not a big sin, a I see. I never read the book, and naturally Loghain is not my favorite, but not an unbearable companion. (I have only one gameplay with him, but this is one of my canon world state.)

Hmmm this is a tough one. I don't think I really like Shale all that much if I am being honest though. Do like the Helm of Honnleath though.
As far as the vanilla game squadmates go, I like them well enough at least for how they fit into the story and archetypes they are meant to portray.

I picked Morrigan but the truth is, the more times I play DAO, the more annoying everyone becomes. I think that's one reason in my last game I kicked nearly everyone out. I just didn't want to deal with them anymore.

DAO cast must be special, because I still recruited/kept around everyone in the DA2 and DAI games that imported that Warden. If I could kick Morrigan out of the Inquisition, I would. Leliana too sometimes, but I needed her for Calpernia's quest line this time around. I did have one DAI game where I never talked to her though. Made for an interesting Divine at the end.

As far as the vanilla game squadmates go, I like them well enough at least for how they fit into the story and archetypes they are meant to portray. I took Shale to Cadash thaig last night. As companion quests go that one is probably the most interesting. We had a very dwarf moment there, almost teary-eyed =).

To me DAO has the best list of companions in any Bioware game. I can't honestly say that I have a problem with any of them, they are each unique to the point I can easily forgive them for their minor annoyances/faults due to how well their characters are written. For example, Morrigan's gripe with helping the townspeople gets old, but it's so fitting to how she was raised that I can't hold it against her. Shale is just amazing, and I love how she can grow to accept the Warden, squishy flesh and all. Alistair can be whiny/clueless but he's as loyal as anyone can possibly be. Wynne doesn't have a 'demanding' presence, but she's so motherly- plus she has one of the best talks with the Warden in the game (Gryphons, anyone? ) I think you all get the hint. I can go on about all of them, and though I consider Loghain dishonest and treacherous, he's not a black and white character, so he even gets a pass from being a "crappy" companion.

Wowa this thread is awesome but i can't post right now because i'm busy but don't worry I will be back for Midnight Only thing i wanted to say for now is that i will not vote for the last option(the one of "like them all"),i believe that in this world it is not possible to like at the same time all kind of people.

I dislike Alistair but I don't disagree with him on the ritual since his points make sense,old gods are a threat for Thedas as a whole so all those who feed Solas and Flemeth with that power aren't responsible GW nor should they be so hypocrite to judge others when they gambled the entire world,now if the criticism was from a non-DR runner that had Alistair desert them at the Landsmeet i could have understand,but this is not the case.
