So rewatching the trailer it looks like the player absorbs something from the dragons he defeats. If Bethesda talked about that before then I must have missed it. Can anybody tell me what that is all about?
Dovhakin (your character) can absorb the souls of defeated dragons. This makes him more powerful and unlocks dragon shouts which is the utilization of the draconic language. Essentially, the shouts cause magical effects like stunning opponents to slowing down time.
That part in the trailer when he yells, he's using a dragon shout.
EDIT: Beaten like a cliff racer.

Let's not get into over-analysis mode.
It's just a trailer dude.
With eight months til release, the fuck else am I gonna do.
That's a lie of course, given everything coming out in March, but I still have a few more days until DoW II:Retribution.
