RPGFan's Retro Encounter

Another month down, another game completed. The Last Story generates different reactions but in the end, somehow, we find common ground when we review the game. That's right, you read that correctly, the Retro Crew reviews a game. Join us as we talk character motives, our favorite epilogues, the final boss battle and the legacy of Mistwalker. And of course it wouldn't be a Retro Encounter without us talking music.Featuring: Josh Curry, Michael Sollosi, Davi Tesnovich, Marcos GasparNote: We had to re-number our episodes several years after publishing.

The Retro Crew reassembles to discuss the middle of The Last Story. Some of the luster of this innovative game has faded as we start our deep dive on what is good, bad and confusing. MMOs, game structure, boss battles, the music and our hopes for the ending of The Last Story are all touched on before we move onto more important topics. There is no talk about fighting games this time around, but it wouldn't be a Retro Encounter without talking about the potential perfect couples. Of course, lovers theory would have been more sensical if we could remember everyone's name, right? Get prepared to be introduced to Dangan Ranpa, Lowes, Eyepatch Dude, and Count Dracula!Featuring: Josh Curry, Michael Sollosi, Davi Tesnovich, Marcos GasparNote: We had to re-number our episodes several years after publishing.

In this episode, we talk about the Zodiac Stones and what they add to (or detract from) the main plot, why Chocobos breed like... well, like Chocobos, and get a live reaction to one of the more infamous portions of the game.Featuring: Josh Curry, Peter Triezenberg, Caitlin Argyros, Marcos GasparNote: We had to re-number our episodes several years after publishing.
