A pair of Dragon Age: Origins trailers let loose the dogs of war
Bioware recently released not one, not seven, but two trailers for their recently re-monikered RPG, Dragon Age: Origins. They're nearly identical -- the video you see above shows off the undeniable strength of canine artillery; the trailer posted after the break shows one poor soldier taking a crash course in Monster Oral Hygiene 101. While it does remind us of a certain rain-soaked siege from a certain moderately successful book and film series, Bioware looks to know their own way around an intense, large-scale battle. Hopefully we'll get to see some gameplay during this week's big event, a large-scale siege in its own right.

I feel bad for not having any interest in this game.

Two words Bioware. Game. Play.

This is BioWare, not Blizzard (all fanboys, no substance).

Now that's a nice pair.

If they can actually tie all this into gameplay then it'll rock. It'd be great to finally have an RPG were you can take part (in a meaningful way) in the kind of epic events and battles that are such a core part of the fantasy genre.
Setting up defenses, choosing battle plans, commanding troops, getting involved in the fighting, etc..
Having "the blight" kind of reminds me of the Wheel of Time series... but I like having the arrogant "good guys" too... maybe it'll be a more flawed, shades-of-grey world like Song of Ice and Fire.

It's inspired setting wise by Song of Ice and Fire actually.
Gameplay wise it's the spiritual successor of Baldur's Gate.

Given the title, these trailers showed a heavy lack of dragons.
