“I like beautiful melodies telling me terrible things.” Even More Favourite Gaming Soundtracks
It’s been about a year since I posted the last recommendation post for video game soundtracks and in this year a lot has happened, a lot of games have been played and some really great pieces of video game music have been discovered or even re-discovered by me throughout the months. So this is mainly
Expectations and Disappointments – Anthem
So, yesterday’s E3 (YT link) showed a first extended glimpse into Bioware’s highly anticipated new IP – Anthem. I’m going to try and summarize my feelings about what I had hoped for and why the whole representation left me more than underwhelmed. For many good summaries and infos and videos, I recommend checking out Joe Juba’s
“I will never forget you.” – Julie Plays Inquisition Pt. 7
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
Let’s shoot some pixels!
It’s become a bit quiet here and for that, we apologize. It’s not that we’re no longer interested in gaming (HAHAHAHAHAHA) or that we’re currently not actively busy with the things we’re interested in – on the contrary. We have already sometimes linked you to the stories we have been writing for our OCs and
Cinderella Phenomenon
A few weeks ago, Anna said: “Go and get Cinderella Phenomenon, it’s free and amazing.” Since she has a great taste when it comes to games, I trust her and indeed: the game, a visual novel by dicesuki, is free to play. (Steamlink here, Website here.) The story is quickly told: The main character is
Beyond the Ice Wall – Julie Plays Inquisition Pt. 6
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
Into beauty and coldness – Julie plays Inquisition Pt. 5
“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
Perseverance pays off – Julie plays Inquisition Pt. 4
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
Tranquillity in Chaos – A Personal View About Gaming With Aspergers And ADHD
I am not completely sure how relatable this is going to be, but here is my personal take and thoughts behind being a gamer with Aspergers and ADHD: When I started gaming as a kid my favourite game was Sonic. Somehow the high speed of the game was calming to me, even then. I loved
All Good Things… – A Look Back On 2017 Through Gaming Habits
I wrote a similar thing a year ago. Our blog was about 8 months old at that time and mostly focused on our Dragon Age run. It has shifted a bit since then, mainly because we finished the DA project but also because of other games taking up space of course. There was a lot
Gaming Nerd Girls
Anna and Julie, friends and fellow gamers with a passion for elaborated headcanons and RPGs in general, often known for fangirling extensively. Expect political correctness, for we are proud Social Justice Warriors (or rather, Mages) and feminists.
