To commemorate the upcoming 10 year anniversary of Dragon Age: Origins, I made a review video for this classic

A very fair review. I liked it!
I found your remarks on Loghain to be the most interesting part and something to which I had never given much thought.

That’s always been an issue of mine when people talk up Loghain as a great villain. On paper, he is decently complex, but in game he’s pretty absent most of the time and unexplored until you get the chance to recruit him. |

Another great video  I disagree - a little - about Loghain, but only a little. You're right that you don't get his story unless you recruit him, but the cutscenes he appears in from the moment you meet him until the Landsmeet offer glimpses of a man tormented by what he feels has no choice but to do. That alone makes him complex enough - in my view. He clearly feels - if not conflicted - disgusted with what he must do when hiring Zevran, for example. Power hungry or evil villains simply wouldn't express that. I also agree regarding the main plot. It is 'fantasy by numbers' to an extent, but like you say, it is the characterisation and side-quests that make the writing stand out. |
