Oh god, her rejecting your advances during her romance patrol quest was so amazingly awkward.

@TheHT: They think he's a piece of shit because he murdered innocent people who actually were not even the source of his aggression.
If you're his rival, he says Vengeance took over and that he regrets what he did and wants to be killed before he loses himself completely. If you're his friend he says he did it to basically start the war to free mages from the Circle and Templars (who answer to the Chantry) and that he wants to be killed as doing so would be justice for those he just killed for his cause.
In either case, what he says doesn't reflect a total piece of shit. More like a person taken to the brink who makes a terrible choice for a not-so-terrible cause, with enough humanity left to acknowledge the horror of his actions and to know what should be done for them.
The real piece of shit is Orsino. After siding with him, he still for some reason freaks out and goes all abomination on your ass. You, the dude helping him, he decides to fight. Makes no fucking sense.
@Yummylee: The Templars were encroaching more and more on the Circle. It's not hard to imagine a near future where mages are on what you could barely call a leash and if they don't like it are either killed or turned tranquil.
Destroying the Chantry led to the Right of Annulment being invoked, which meant that whether they agreed with Anders' choice of catalyst or not, every mage would have to fight for their life. At the end of the war they would either all be free or have died fighting for it.
I understand why he did it but would have still preferred to try for a compromise. The Templars are overzealous and incredibly fearful of mages, and there's only so much the majority of mages could take before they realized they had to push back. I imagine when it got to that point they wouldn't be able to do much though.
War was inevitable. Starting it when he did may have actually given the mages a fighting change.
