Meet Dragon Age: Origins’ Oghren. He’s a liquor-swilling dunderhead dwarf with a wicked axe and the skills to swing it. When he’s not busy killing Dark Spawn or falling unconscious in the middle of a conversation, he’s searching for his wife who vanished into the dangerous Deep Roads after he entered her “noble” house.
In the above, you’ll get a taste of Oghren’s Gimli-ish edge as well as glance his gorgeous blade work as he hacks and slashes a variety of monsters. This red-bearded midget demon is what Origins is all about. Enjoy.
Also, don’t pay attention to the asterisk next to the PS3 version’s release date at the end of the trailer. Earlier this afternoon, BioWare said it would hit November 3 with the rest of the versions of the game.
I was't planning on being a dwarf for a few playthroughs but after seeing how effing badass dwarves look in heavy armor in Giant Bomb's latest quick look I may have to try them out.

I think I'm going to go for Shale (the stone prisoner) first. After reading how dominant golems are in the first Dragon Age book I can only assume he'll kick a metric ton of ass. Also, there's apparently some cool stuff that happens if you have him in your party when you go to Orzammar for the first time.
Cause he's right. Steve Blum is weaksauce,nearly everything he does is weaksauce. He has a totally non-badass voice. He sounds shit as wolverine, as Zegram, as any badass. He was great as Jamie from Megas, he needs to stick to doing scrawny losers.

You did not just call Steve Blum "weaksauce."

Hmmm... I don't get it.
