You need to learn what the concept of an opinion is dude. Not everyone is going to like what you like. Not everyone is going to see certain characters the way that you do. Not every character is going to land with everyone. I'm not going to waste my time making a case for characters you're already dead set on disliking.

My mindset has never been "X is better than Y". It's "Like this character for these reason, I like these characters for those reasons". "I resonate more with this character because I see parallels to myself in them." There's nothing even remotely wrong with that. Hell there isn't a FF cast (from the ones I've played) that I'd call bad. Ofc I have favs but I don't compare who's better. If you like DA characters better, that's fine. Don't expect ff characters to be like them. If you want DA like characters play DA. I love Garrus from Mass Effect, I ain't expecting a character like him in xiv though
