The burden of choice
Sorry for our long silence – it’s summer time, summer vacation time to be more precise, and kids want to be taken care of and then I was away for first work and then vacation and now my first last week of actual vacation is somehow filled with much more tasks than I wanted to.
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
My “it’s like suuuper complicated” with Solas
In my time as a gamer there have been several key moments where games touched me on a very deep level. Sometimes because I could relate to something incredibly well. Other times because something drove me up the wall and it took analysing a piece of media to realise a general issue I has with
Whom Gods Destroy – Anna plays Inquisition Part 3
It took me a while to finally get around to write the next entry about actually playing the game. In my defence, I was busy scribbling down around 30k words of fanfiction in the meantime. Which made me neglect actually continuing with the game for a while as well. The general lull I usually fall

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
The Wrath of Heaven – Julie Plays Inquisition Pt. 1
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
In the Hands of the Prophets – Anna plays Inquisition – Part 1
After a longer break between games I finally got around to start Inquisition. People who follow me on tumblr know how divided I am about this game. There are parts that I love and then there are parts that I absolutely loathe. What has the upper hand largely depends on my mood and how well

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

We had some lovely comments last week (thank you again, Helen! :D) asking after our DAI-runthrough. And we can promise: it will come. Just not quite yet. Both Anna and I are pretty involved in SWTOR at the moment and we created something similar to our Letters from Thedas, which basically kickstarted this blog. We
Though she be but little, she is fierce! – Julie Replays Dragon Age 2 Pt. 7
The last Act – and I must admit, finally. This playthrough kind of dragged me along rather than speed me on, maybe in part because of how much I realized how damn hard life for my poor Hawke is. More than ever. The events in Act 2 were of a sort that left Adriene bitter
