He made his video game debut in Dragon Age: Origins, which was released shortly after the release of The Calling, as one of the video game's main antagonists. Depending on the player's choices in Origins, Loghain may appear in a cameo role in the expansion for Origins, Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening, as well as a supporting role in Dragon Age: Inquisition. He is voiced by Simon Templeman for all media. His critical reception has been positive, with attention drawn to his effectiveness as a compelling and morally complex villain who many players could empathize with. (en) |

dbp:quote | "A good dynamic foil. A viewpoint that fascinates, even if it's self-serving or covering an agenda. The antagonists who stay with me typically change a story's protagonists when they clash, whether by forcing them to adapt or by irreversibly altering their entire worldview". (en) "It could be that that distrust of the Grey Wardens or his disbelief in the Blight in the first place influenced the betrayal. Or it could be as Solas said in Dragon Age: Inquisition, that when he dreamed near Ostagar, he saw “an army overwhelmed and a veteran commander refusing to let more soldiers die in a lost cause.” Most likely, it’s a combination of both."
