Which characters you actually don't want to see in DA4?

I thought Fenris' story felt complete in DA2. Slave Fenris could show up, but I'm not sure Bioware would invest the resources to animate him on frostbite unless he shows up in world states where he isn't a slave too

...I may have forgotten Solas existed while I was typing my post.

The guy coming back = the guy i like least. Also hate the fact that I know for the next 4 years that he is coming back and having a major part.

I would love it if petrice came back. one of my fav characters in DA2. Too bad she was auto killed in most games.

She's actually my most favorite DA character despite her small screen time. I especially loved her causticity and watching her run around Kirkwall scheming her little schemes. Seeing her going against the Qunari in DA4 would be one of my pipe dreams for the game.

You changed my text, and this is petty – And not even fits. Pathetic.

Nice parry!

Being killed didn't stop Leliana coming back...

The way the qun treats mages and dissidents is actually the only wrong thing with the qun. Oh, and the sexism. They can learn with that. And the things with swords. Ok, the core is okay still.

Can't say the same about the chantry, which is rotten to the core. 

Chantry is a million times better then the Qun.

Speaking of the Chantry, mages, and DA2, I'm glad Anders wasn't in DA:I much. Also hope he's not in DA:4. I don't have much to do with zealots, their irrationality irks me.

Anders may be a sympathetic character to some, but to many he's a repulsive person. DA:2's themes parallel closely to the real world and one of Bioware's main messages and themes is what drives a person to perform those acts, but I'm still not moved. One man's hero is another man's terrorist, and while you may be fighting for a noble cause, the minute you start burning cars and businesses in order to create anarchy to fight oppression, the patriarchy, and evil capitalism is the minute your zealotry comes to the fore and you lose public sympathy. Although many who embrace that violence be going "YEAH, that's right, take it to them, destroy that oppression", which further convinces me that Bioware's making games in and for an echo chamber.

There are a couple of important points to make. Anders was supposed to make people uncomfortable, the message was supposed to make people uncomfortable, one might call this an "uncomfortable game". There's a place for that sort of media, it's important. However most people play games after working 9-5 or in some cases 9-7, dealing with financial pressure, family pressure, shitty bosses, shitty work people, and these people just want to come home to escape life and relax. Most of these people would not appreciate this kind of game, especially without warning. "Imagine how it is for others who get no break from being made to feel uncomfortable" Bioware, you're a business that's being asked to sell 6 million copies in the first month, stop pulling shit pretentious street artists pull to try and enforce their POV on the unsuspecting public. Based on the first game and the marketing for the second the public would have expected a pretty clear cut battle between good and evil (and no, despite what some people think mages vs Chantry is not a clear cut battle between good and evil) with an "awesome button" that they can use to relax and kick some arse, with some romance sprinkled in. Man were they ever in for a surprise.

To sum up - Anders can die from a horrible plague, alone, in the woods, howling at the moon for all I care. I'm glad Bioware's moved on from their DA:2 experiment (going by Casey's "mission statement"), even if I have to stomach live service in order to do so. And we never got our "awesome button".
