Re: 575: Life is Strange 2
Life is Strange 2 taps into some very real anxieties over political and social radicalism, and it's going to be an interesting story to revisit both now, a few years after the release of the first episode, and in the future. I just wish the gameplay was also compelling enough to make it worth the tr...

Re: 550: Final Fantasy Tactics / The War of the Lions
Very glad you're covering this one, excited to hear what you have to say about it. I wrote the HTML-based guide for the game on GameFAQs, so if anyone's stuck, feel free to hit me up on Twitter. #1 thing going in--use rolling save games in multiple slots. I'm most curious to hear what the panel has ...

Re: Our next Final Fantasy podcast recording (8.6.19) - 373: Final Fantasy X
Despite Kimahri being a poor implementation of my namesake's job class, I'm glad Final Fantasy X exists. I was a big fan of this series going back to the early 90's, and Final Fantasy VIII and IX disappointed me so much that I had to be talked into joining Yuna's pilgrimage fully two years after rel...

Re: 368: Persona 5
It's been some time now since I played through Persona 5, but what has stuck with me is how it is a master class in top-down game design. The thievery theme drips from every corner of this game, not just from the phenomenal UI, but also in its twists on the now-familiar Persona formula with the soci...

Re: 367: DOOM (2016)
As someone lacking state-of-the-art hardware, I greatly appreciated how well optimized this game was on PC. There was only one spot in the whole campaign where I noticed a framerate drop. The flow of the gameplay is essential to this game being as enjoyable as it is, and being able to smoothly go fr...

Re: Our next Final Fantasy podcast recording (13.4.19) - 365: Final Fantasy IX
I am curious to hear the panel's thoughts on the technical aspects of the game, as I hold Final Fantasy IX to be as far as Square has ever been behind the curve with their long-running series. There was no voice acting to be found despite having been present in many other PlayStation games by this p...
