But do you prefer DA2 to DAO? Because I do.

Mostly because fictional acts of terrorism > Restoring the rightful king or whatevs and it's less cliche'd.

My only gripe is that Hawke didn't get to be in on the terrorism because my angry mage Hawke would have been all over that.

I agree that the overall plot of DAII is potentially more interesting, it's just not executed very well. And on top of that, BioWare's greatest strength has ALWAYS been its characters--and DAO's characters are simply more engaging. Again, DAII's have the *potential* to be really interesting, but the way all the conversations work and such is a lot less interesting.

Eh, to each their own. I LOATHED Alistair, Wynne and Leliana as much as I loved Zevran, Ogren and dog, if not more so. I liked all the characters in DA2 a lot, except Fenris.
And for me personally the plot in DAO was just SO crappy I could not get past it. It's liked they walked into the fantasy section of barnes and noble and pulled out a random crappy paperback.

They didn't pull out a random crappy paperback. They pulled out A Song of Ice and Fire. They even admitted that the game was heavily inspired by the series.

A Song of Ice and Fire... aka a random crappy fantaay book.

I would argue that how engaging DA2 characters are in comparison to DAO is in the eye of the beholder. In DAO, I personally just could not find it in myself to give a rat's ass about pretty much anyone but Shale, whereas I took an almost immediate liking to all DA2 party members who weren't Anders.
