Chris and Braden are joined by special guest Joey "Joeku" [REDACTED] to talk about the cult classic 2008 RPG Lost Odyssey! Will this be the game that catapults the Xbox 360 into Japanese market relevancy? No? Well, in any case, our crew discusses Mistwalker, the state of the genre in the late 00s, and whether or not it's a good idea to put all of your best writing in a bunch of short stories!

In this episode Gino, Pete, and Chris "ZombiePie" -REDACTED- discuss Pathologic 2. We cover the game's truely one of a kind story and setting as well as its unforgiving difficulty. We also talk throught the game's survival elements and odd bartering economy. Does difficulty make this game's story or does it hide some of its lack of polish? How do you evaluate a story that is told in broken chunks that are either intentionally surreal or are poorly translated? We try our best to give our answers!

With Adam "Borgmaster" [REDACTED] on assignment, it's up to Braden and Chris to handle the last Breath of Fire on their own. They discuss the game's divisive reputation, its unique aesthetics, and even more unique semi-roguelike structure. Is it a hidden gem that was ahead of its time or was it worthy of killing the franchise? Given that Off the Deep End is covering it, you know our feelings could go either way.

In this episode Gino, Em, and Pete play their first Yakuza game, Yakuza: Like a Dragon! We cover the game's bonkers story, classic JRPG combat, and rediculous characters. We also cover the game's ability to highlight marginalized people while also making violence the answer to almost every problem. Like a Dragon is a game of contrasts. Unfortunately, Em's two hour explanation of the rules of Mahjong had to be cut for time. However, I assure you it was riveting.

With Borgmaster on assignment, it's up to Braden and Chris to discuss the fourth game in the Fire Emblem series, in a way that only two FE old heads with a lot of baggage are able to. You'll learn far more than you ever wanted to about Genealogy's mechanics, character pairing, story, and map size, with an added dose of random series gripes and deeply specific things that only people who've played too many of these games notice. You're welcome! We're not sorry!
