I was an Oghren fan before DAA and I'm one after DAA even though Oggy doesn't like me anymore :crying:. Prerelease Oghren haters and even some Oghren fans called him shallow and a walking dirty joke. Now that he has a family and is a stronger character any haters change their opinions about him? Even if only a little.

Actually, I liked the Origins Oghren. The Awakening Oghren I like not so much. The only way I can stand to have him in my party is to give him Sten's Rainbow Sword.

I did't hate him in Origins, but after Awakening he turned into one of my favorite characters. He made me laugh my ass off throughout and without any spoilers I think his line at the final boss was one of the funniest.

I was looking forward to seeing the Oghren character developed. Now I really wished they'd left it alone. My opinion of him took a nosedive. In fact, I'm not looking forward to the point in my new Origins playthrough when Oghren shows up. I'd really rather not see him again. Hopefully getting to know him in Origins again will make me like him again. Or maybe I'll just leave him in camp this time.

Oghren rules. If you don't like him, you probably eat a lot of chesse and wine while you watch movies that make you cry before talking about how wounded your soul is to your well dressed friends.



Oghren rules.

And he´s a great counter-point for Sigrun; probably my fave dwarf in whole Dragon Age universe.

Some people hate him more. Some people like him more. Some people feel the same. And the three groups seem somewhat even so far. Why ain't I surprised?

Is there anyway to explain w/o posting spoilers? Why did your opinion nosedive?

for me, his comments in Awak. are just irritating and mysogynistic. and his possible joining? kills the mood IMO. he's like a stereotypical dwarf / pimp, I guess.



I haven't really played with...Oghren in Origins, though.

Did you ever take him with you to Warden's Keep and side with A? His reaction to Oghren is brilliant. Seems unless you actually bring him with you for some time it's hard to like him, he's probably the only character who I found I liked more after making him a permenant companion, everyone else I had pretty much figured after meeting them.

I'd agree with the joining bit, he could've at least fallen over...

I like Oghren in origin because after branka death and i help him get Felsi, but when i was playing awakening and notice what Oghren have done i just didn't like him anymore. i wanted to kill him because he promised to take good care of Felsi but he didn't.



Hate You Oghren

I didn't really care for him before Awakening, but I didn't have strong negative feelings for him either. Just found him unfunny overall. I wasn't happy that he was chosen to return but didn't view that as the end of the world either. Playing Awakening actually made me like him less though. He's FAR less symphathec there.

Always liked Oghren. Like him the same now. Very stereotypical dwarf, and lets face it, if we didn't have stereotypes a lot of people would complain about it not being stereotypical. Although a well mannered, philosophical, pacifist dwarf would certainly be an interesting (or amazingly boring) squad mate.

I really started to like him in Awakening, now that I've played Origins again a couple more times after, I like him in Origins too. He's a funny lil' effer.

Felt sorry for him in Awakening. His life is a complete mess then. I had hopes for him at the end of origins.



But I like Oggy nonetheless.

I'd have to get spoilery--although I notice people aren't letting that hold them back. ;) Let's see.... In Origins, he had a somewhat raunchy sense of humor--that was funny, rough edges, and a good heart. In Awakening, he was really crude without being funny, caustic in a way he hadn't been before, and it was hard to believe that the guy who would look for Branka for years was also a guy who would abandon the responsibilities he abandoned to come to Amaranthine. That's especially true when you consider what a very short time this is from the end of Origins, certainly less than a year. He didn't try to deal with those responsibilities for very long.

While it has nothing to do with my opinion of him, per se, his joining ceremony really, really pissed me off and cheapened the ritual, and the deaths that resulted from it in prior joinings. It was a stupid, unthinking place to add humor.

Didn't like him in Origins, didn't care for him in Awakening. The main reason I didn't use him in origins was because he was the last character I picked up and all the other ones are much stronger. The typical beer swilling tough talking trashy guy is an overdone RPG cliche, and I've always seen little use for him.



I prefer Zevran for being the first gay character with a non-stereotypical personality that you can romance, Wynn for her gentle sayings and genuine perilous condition you can learn more about, Allistair for helping him cope with his loss and getting to know him better as a friend, Morrigan for trying to make her come out of her shell, and hell, any of the others.



The problem is that he isn't anything really new or exciting. He had some funny dialogue, but i was more interested in what my other party members had to say.

Sometimes he amuses me, other times he makes me want to smack him.



He reminds of the character Ray from Riding in Cars with Boys. (Drew Barrymore, Steve Zahn). Which is funny because I liked Ray's character. He seemed like a nice guy, like Oghren, but a horrible family man.

Well thank you for eleborating. Granted I love him because he's a drunk, dirty, funny, dwarf... but I can see why you wouldn't.

Kinda like me with Sten... I just can't like him after what he did.
