Nearly 500.000 words. That’s the number of words Anna and I have written during these last six months (half of which have been discarded again or wait to be rewritten, all because we had An Idea™ and thought it would be easy peasy to include this idea into our already nearly-done story, but that’s another Read More
And thus, Dragon Age Inquisition has come to an end. After Jaws of Hakkon, the fight against Corypheus was done and over with in a whiff and then I was off to Trespasser. I love this DLC. It is so tightly woven, storywise, the bits and pieces of lore you can find… and of course Read More
And here we are. After a month of barely being able to play due to a new job and then being ill (stupid flu that wrecks seemingly the whole country at the moment…) and then being sidetracked by creating a new character and revisiting an old character (meet Nadya Trevelyan and Teiya Adaar)… … due Read More
“No,” I said, “I won’t go back to before the fight against Coryphergs just to have Solas in the company for Jaws of Hakkon.” “That would be stupid,” I said and played several hours in the Hissing Wastes and the Emprise du Lion just to get that one Superb Fire Rune. “Ridiculous,” I said after Read More
It’s been nearly a year that I touched Inquisition – not counting the times where I logged in and out after about five minutes. After my last post in March 2017 I managed to finish the main game, more or less breezing through the story. My main decisions: Loghain stayed in the Fade to battle Read More
Something weird is happening to our DAI playthrough. While both Anna and I are deeply in love with our respective characters and their stories, we both have zero enthusiasm to continue playing. At the moment, I am shortly before Adamant fortress and I am wildly determined to push through to at least after the Fade Read More
Or. You know. Something to read in your coffee break. Or. Uhm. ANYWAY, as you might know, Anna and I are writing a lot of fanfiction about our respective characters over at AO3… which has, to be honest, sort of switched our priorities a bit – but there will be more letters and gaming updates coming, I Read More
The decision to go to the mages for help is one Lyssa never regrets. For her, it pretty soon becomes clear that they have been mislead – probably even had their minds altered magically. Lyssa knew that a trap would be waiting for her at Redcliffe and she was prepared for it – what she Read More
Welcome to the new year! Perfect time to review the start of my Dragon Age Inquisition Rerun – my least favourite game in one of my favourite game series. There are a number of reasons for this, mainly focussed on bad writing, incoherent plot, absolute no consequences and the bleakest protagonist a Bioware game has Read More
After a small break, a lot of Star Wars and other games in the meantime and some time out from the DA universe we are finally back to where this all started: Finishing our Dragon Age re-run. After Dragon Age 2 we were both a bit in a rut about this universe. Especially since DAI Read More
