BioWare has released new Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening screenshots and a trailer showing the fantasy RPG's expansion pack villainous Architect, a scheming intelligent Darkspawn.

"The Architect is the first darkspawn to develop a will of his own," BioWare explains, "an unusual outcast who seems not to be subject to the call of the Old Gods, nor to the other darkspawn compulsions." How should adventurers approach such a being? Bioware advises that "treating him as anything other than what he is--a darkspawn--would be folly." They probably know what they're talking about.

The $40 expansion pack will hit PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in North America on March 16, then March 19 in Europe. As to the franchise's fate after that, we know there's a Dragon Age thing coming on February 1, 2011, but haven't the foggiest what it is.

    I appreciate that Bioware goes to the trouble of hiring hundreds of voice actors for their games so that you don't end up with the same actor voicing like 50 characters (I'm looking at you, Bethesda). But they're going to have to switch it up a little more between games. It's kind of weird to hear Carth from KOTOR voicing Kaidan in ME, Oghren from DA voicing half a dozen minor roles in ME2, and Zaeed from the ME2 DLC voicing a fucking promo trailer.

      I guess I'm not very sensitive to it, I've been playing Bioware games like mad and it hasn't bothered me.

      Nolan North needs to take a time-out, however.
