The characters sucked too.
What.
It had fantastic characters. And no darkness? Did you even play the game? You clearly didn't, as several characters whole theme was wrapped around darkness as were several main quests.
The characters were almost all very flat and same, like they were written by one person with only a superficial knowledge of other types of people than himself. The only ones who broke the mold were Sera and Cole.
The game as a whole was not dark fantasy in the slightest. It was standard fantasy, which includes sprinkles of everything naturally. There was nothing the likes of the Grey Warden blood ritual in the first game, where you see the recruit in front of you drink Darkspawn blood and go crazy and die, and then it's your turn. Or a dwarf female being kidnapped by Darkspawn, dragged into their lair and turned into a broodmother. Or stuff like the Tranquil from the Mages' Circle. Those kinds of themes that cast an air of harsh times instead of just telling you "hey times are harsh".
