In a tribute episode both to the predecessor of Music Arcade, and in many ways one of the reasons it exists at all, Galen "The Soundguy" Firestone, Ranakel, Dezxter and Ryan "RyBred" Hawks gather once again to talk about the end of service of the global version of Final Fantasy Brave Exvius.

The wheel of instruments is spun again, landing on clarinets - and its curse strikes, as usual, though in an unexpected way.
Stick around to see how many times the words "yep, that's actually an oboe" are uttered as we talk games such as Age of Mythology, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia.

This week, the crew is after some catharsis - the kind that we can only get from a franchise with almost as many names as it has unnamed mooks.
Should it be called Samurai Warriors? Dynasty Warriors? Warriors Orochi? Sengoku Musou? Shin Sangokumusou? Musou Orochi? Something entirely different? Who knows - all we know is it's got some great music!

Today, the crew touches some grass - or, rather, one of us does, while the others are left to just talk about it.
From the classic fields of games such as Legend of Zelda and Pokémon to more niche pieces of grass as the woods of Terranigma and Shovel Knight, the only question we don't answer is whether the grass really is always greener on the other side.
