   Episode 11a | Dragon Age 2: 10 Years Later... More Relevant than Ever?

   We're diving back in with a real heavy hitter. We've all known that many of the events of Dragon Age seem similar to real life issues... but the events of the last couple of years have left made both Rose and Thorn notice that, especially in Dragon Age 2, real life seems strikingly similar to ongoings in the world. The two friends dive into the relevancy of the issues in Dragon Age 2, ten years later, and talk about exactly what ways does our beloved game reflect the world?

   UWU WE HAVE COME BACK TO YOU FRIENDS!! After a bit away, we have returned, with a conglomeration of our favorite mods and custom content, including Sims content! WE LOVE LOVE LOVE Dragon Age creators as we have said before, and mods are no different! Consider this our way of bowing to the Makers and Creators we will ALWAYS believe in!

We promise there is no lack of thirst in this episode ;) DOWNLOAD THESE PRETTY MODS (Sooooo... there's actually nowhere near enough room to list ALL of the mods to give them the proper credit they deserve.

   Episode 8 | TL;DR We Love You, Dragon Age Community!

   Happy New Year! We Begin 2021 (thank the Maker and the Creators) by dropping an episode, and it is quite possibly our favorite episode yet!! In this one, we first, briefly, touch on some fairly distressing things that happened in the Dragon Age community in the beginning of December 2020, but segue from that to talk about this BEAUTIFUL fandom and the family that has really formed out of our deep love and passion for Dragon Age! We celebrate the art and content that has come out of our beloved community, and most of all just praise and shower it with love. We really do love you all, and we are so, so happy to be here!!

   Episode 7 | Thedas Theology vs. Real World Theology

   We dip our toes in some of the deeper waters at Left of the Fade and discuss Religion in Thedas, and the parallels and possible inspirations from real life religions! By no means does this cover everything pertaining to religion, but it does cover some of the main stuff we have noticed! We hope you have a wonderful holiday season - see you in 2021 ;) Happy Satinalia!

   Episode 4 | Dragon Age Names Etymology

   This episode decides to be fun while also doing some possible over speculating by analyzing the names of many Dragon Age characters, their meanings, and how that applies to them (if at all). We're fully aware that we may be way off the map with our conclusions, and in truth the writers may have just decided they liked the names and that was that. But! This is just for fun, and this is by no means a complete list (we know we missed a lot). If you liked this episode, please let us know and feel free to tell us if we've missed anything important!

    Episode 2 | Sooo Gr*g Ell*s SUCKS

    Please visit our Youtube for the video component which has screenshots of evidence: https://youtu.be/yG3DxlUZgVA (https://youtu.be/yG3DxlUZgVA) Rose and Thorn discuss and lay the recent evidence out on the table as to why Cullen Rutherford's voice actor, is a hugely problematic asshole and why they want BioWare to have nothing to do with him anymore (which will thankfully happen, it appears.) This podcast was heartwrenching to make, but neither host wanted it to be uncertain where they stood on the position. We at Left of the Fade do not tolerate any sort of discrimination or hate speech, and that includes even those who have voiced in the game we love so very much. Greg can get the hell out of our fandom for all we care, and we'll be happier for it. Ideally we would have liked to get this out as soon as possible so there is no moment of uncertainty, but this took some time to edit (we had some moments of emotion and tangents that had to be cut) and Rose was gone for a week in the midst of editing so that cut into things. Black Lives Matter. ______________________________________________________ The tumblr mentioned: https://dalishious.tumblr.com/post/628367781019172864/can-you-explain-what-is-going-on-with-greg-ellis (https://dalishious.tumblr.com/post/628367781019172864/can-you-explain-what-is-going-on-with-greg-ellis) Intro music: Truth of the Legend by Kevin MacLeod https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4551-truth-of-the-legend (https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4551-truth-of-the-legend) Outro Music: Heroic Age by Kevin MacLeod https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3870-heroic-age (https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3870-heroic-age) Cover art by Rose's Husband Fuck off, Greg.
