Much like its predecessors, Dragon Age: Inquisition is steeped in lore, and there’s no shortage of odd and unusual leads to follow from its plethora of codex entries. Some lead to exemplary gear, others lead to exclusive story additions or dialogue between characters. But none lead to one of the game’s strangest and most humorous…

Cary’s Fav Games of 2013-2023
When tasked with the simple action of choosing my favorite games of 2013-2023, things proved not so simple. That’s mainly because the first list I came up with not only long but also, as I was working just from memory, contained a number of games that came out just before 2013. Eliminating those games helped…
Top 5: The Grind to Unwind
When it comes to most games that don’t involve action sports, “grind” is typically a bad word. It means that players will have to spend hours upon hours slogging away at routine tasks and combat to obtain necessary (and sometimes unnecessary) levels and gear to progress. It can also be applied to the act of…
Listmas 2022: Cary’s coziest picks
If the onset of winter each year conjures one and only one feeling, it has to be the need to feel cozy. Bundled up. Safe and warm. Maybe a fireplace crackles in the background or a warm beverage sits nearby. The surrounding space could be tight, or it could be expansive – either way, the…
Cheeky Charlatans: Sera
In Dragon Age: Inquisition’s DLC, Trespasser, provided she and your inquisitor are friends, there is a scene that defines the elven rogue Sera more than any other. Upon the two meeting on the eve of the Exalted Council – something of a United Nations, but much smaller and more religious — Sera invites the inquisitor…
Listmas 2020: Cary’s Favorite Bonus Content
Downloadable content. Expansion packs. Season passes. Extended rigmarole. However you phrase it (maybe not that last way), bonus content for games has long been a part of the industry, and it’s not going away any time soon. I must admit that I wasn’t always a fan of such. For the bulk of my gaming history,…
8th Generation Memories
Even though the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X are now here and the first few games are already out in the wild, the now-current generation still doesn’t feel real for me. I still see games coming out for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and frankly it’s going to be hard to get one of…
Top 5: Personal Last-Gen Memories
With this week’s heralded releases of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, it would seem that we can once again make the switch from calling the “next generation” of consoles to the “current generation.” Of course, I have no plans to suddenly ditch anything “last generation,” and neither do many of you, I’m sure….
Listmas 2019: Round Round, Get Around, I Get Around
When it comes to moving about in games, some of them offer more options than just your two feet. For this week’s Listmas list, our topic is all about transportation, which, I will admit with my choices, I have widely interpreted to mean anything from things you actually ride/drive to things that help quicken your…
Listmas 2017: Five “New” Discoveries I’ve Made While Replaying Dragon Age: Inquisition
In early 2015, I ran through Dragon Age: Inquisition — quite literally, I mean, at about fifty hours of play. I sped around Thedas, did away with all the enemies, and saved the day. That was that, and I moved on. I didn’t give the game much thought again until recently when I replayed Dragon…
