** The Red Templars wield glowing red swords that bear a disturbing resemblance to Meredith's red lyrium sword from the previous game. Their leader [[spoiler:Samson]] wields a sword that is all but stated to ''be'' Meredith's sword reborn. The Red Templar Archers also get [[CoolGuns similar looking bows]], which bear a slight resemblance to Irvine's demonic one from ''Manga/{{Berserk}}''.

Added DiffLines:

* CharactersMostHatedSong: Played straight for the archer Sera and the song "Sera Was Never..", as she finds the song creepy and assumes it's Maryden attempt to woo her. It doesn't help that Sera, for the duration of her stay with the Inquisition, is living in the room on the third floor of the tavern, so after hearing the song one too many times, she gets fed up with it and smashes Maryden's lute.

* TheAtoner: Very easy to miss, but in the Exalted Plains you can find the song describing what had ''really'' happened to the elven warrior Lindiranae in her LastStand against a human knight, Ser Brandis the Silver Helm, during the Second Exalted March. Turns out the knight did not want to fight her and even offered to let her yield, but she (understandably) refused. She was then killed by a random arrow, and Ser Brandis, catching her as she fell, realized what humans had done (they almost wiped out the entire elven race) and was filled with remorse. He took Lindiranae's sword Evanura (and possibly her body) and buried it in the Emerald Graves, after which he was never seen again. It is strongly hinted that he either began WalkingTheEarth in order to atone or may have killed himself.

** And on a different level; the "Walk Softly"-trial randomly adds promotions, resistances and special abilities to standard enemies ... some combinations of which can turn fights against mooks absolutely unwinnable.

And even worse, Magical Barriers (which is considered a hostile target) can take a lot of time to be destroyed.

* CaptainObvious: "That's what happens when you try to change things. Things [[FromBadToWorse change]]." Eloquence, thy name is Hawke. It would be {{Narm}}tastically funny if not for the implication that Hawke [[HeroicSelfDeprecation blames]] [[FailureHero themself]] for ''everything'' that happened in ''DAII'', including [[spoiler: releasing Corypheus, the current BigBad]]. Hard to believe all this started because Hawke just wanted to evade the Templars of Kirkwall.

Does Not Like Shoes has been renamed and redefined to focus on characters that explicitly or implicitly state a preference for going barefoot. Removing misuse


* DoesNotLikeShoes: Most elves continue to have an aversion to conventional footwear. With any elven armor equipped, the Inquisitor can join their feud against boots.

* DecadentCourt: One of the main missions involves taking part in this: picture [[AcceptableTargets Parliament Question Time]] only with more bloodshed. The idea is to track down who wants to assassinate the Empress and stop them... or allow it to happen if you side with MurderIsTheBestSolution and vie for who you want in charge. To do so you must maintain a high enough standing with the participants, proper speech, posture, know what to agree and disagree with, as well as dig up political dirt that can later be used.
