    Lunar Silver Star Story E2: Turd-Smoking Coward [Development & Localization, Part II]

    We’re still talking about the Lunar before we play it. You know what that means: we’re altering game code for the reality of commerce, smoking turds like a coward, slandering Shannen Doherty, dubbing in dubious farts, artificially adjusting the difficulty, cringing at the worst magazine ad of all time, giving away a demo disc, choosing kindness over grittiness, giving in to the astonishment of holograms and paper stock, learning about Fan Art Edition, finding Lunar through internet friends, and getting fat-phobic, drunk, and S.C.R.O.T.A.L. The regular, eternal flow of the show starts next week! We promise!

    Lunar Silver Star Story E1: Working Designs Is Me [Development & Localization, Part I]

    Hello and welcome to season 7! We’re covering Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete, which entails going over which version(s) of Lunar’s Silver Star Story we’re playing, outlining every Lunar that exists, figuring out how many dollars games cost, wondering what the situation is with Studio Alex, designing a cold world, spreading democracy on the moon, becoming sexy and smelling a person, pestering Game Arts into a localization contract, accidentally inventing modern localization, and starting to answer the question: what’s the deal with Victor Ireland? How can a man own words?

    00:00 Intro | 05:03 Release Information | 11:54 How To Play Lunar in 2024 | 15:11 Studio Alex | 20:10 Core Staff | 34:31 Working Designs, Part I | 51:10 Real Net | 55:48 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E29: Thong, For Some Reason [Endgame, Part II + Epilogue]

    To enter Season 6’s final episode is to bid goodbye to the light of day. If you accept, we’re referencing other Final Fantasies games in bullshit missions, letting someone else explore Midlight’s Deep, slaying the hell magician, fighting in fart gas, destroying more jobbers, bending knees to demons, trying to kickstart Virgo, wanting for blood, identifying the universal pervert endgame, sealing off the pervert portal, marveling at the airship graveyard, wearing thong for the ultimate battle, winning the game, gathering at a grave, and remaining pure of heart at the end. See you next week, and next season, with Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete.

    Final Fantasy Tactics E28: The Complete Aura of This Package [Sidequests + Endgame, Part I]

    You know nothing, Beowulf. You know we’re inventing additional antagonists for unnecessary sidequests, re-dragoning someone for a kidnapping plot, walking into an obvious trap, treating with steel, literally casting doubt, stealing a lady back from a pervert priest, debating belief vs fornication, nervously crafting a birthday scheme, overdoing the poop metaphors, costing a goodly amount, looking odd, unlocking the secrets of giant books, leaving behind ignorance, and casting open the very gates of hell. There is no turning back now.

    00:00 Intro | 03:25 Lionel's New Liege Lord | 10:35 Lionel Castle Gate | 14:14 Lionel Castle Oratory | 23:08 Agrias’ Birthday | 29:46 Orbonne Monastery Vaults, 4th Level | 32:51 Monastery Vaults, 5th Level | 36:49 Necrohol | 40:36 Real Net | 43:51 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E27: The Three Main Shitheads [Murond Holy Place]

    Lives and levels, or men and boards? How about pods and casts, featuring us dropping in on perverts, murdering clergy members, slingin’ blood off a sword, remaining lawful, observing an indoor turd river, picking up a book, exposing craven cowards, returning to the father, serving death by steel, reborning a brother, re-killing a brother, pumping a dying guy for information, refusing to join a princess party, slipping a secret knife, taking what’s due, and returning to where it all started: robbing poor people. We’ll serve our vengeance another day.

    00:00 Warcraft 3 | 02:41 Intro | 04:20 Mullonde Massacre | 12:43 Mullonde Cathedral | 15:38 Mullonde Cathedral Nave | 26:46 Mullonde Cathedral Sanctuary | 33:34 Mullonde Temple | 36:26 Disorder In The Order | 44:50 Disorder In The Order Part II | 52:23 Real Net | 01:00:50 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E26: To Frustrate a Plot [Back to Igros Castle]

    Here’s a souvenir for you on the way to hell. It’s a podcast, one in which we’re appreciating sprite animation, frustrating the high confessor’s plot, working to see queens made for true, pretending to leave the room, rendezvousing with perverts, resisting every scenario, screaming in the dark, naming that mushroom, adding a Cletienne scene, going to the gods, exceeding our feeble capacities, creating the circle of trust, passing strange, jumping in a brother-based triple threat match, and using mimes for both benefit and determinant. Do you see anyone alone who is saddened?

    00:00 Apple Bastards | 01:28 Intro | 03:38 Zeltennia Castle Throwdown | 23:26 Beoulve Royal Cemetery | 30:49 My Darling Cletienne | 36:52 Chris Tasks | 40:34 Eagrose Castle Showdown | 59:30 Master Math | 01:00:10 Real Net \ 01:04:04 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E25: A Blood Member of Darkness [Limberry Castle, Part II]

    What devilry is this? It’s a podcast, once in which we’re wading in rebirth, boasting the brain of a dullard, fighting an old foe who died but didn’t, indulging in gratuity, interrupting pervert preparation, hanging a bag of teeth, refusing to acknowledge death, unpossessing numen, thinking of our sire’s flesh, becoming a blood member of darkness, wondering if stones can pervert perverts, and recruiting someone to kill their father. Ere long you shall know darkness deeper still.

    00:00 Rebirth | 04:09 Intro | 05:55 Return of the Gath | 19:19 Limberry Castle Undercroft | 36:18 Undercroft, Post Zalera | 43:52 Real Net | 49:01 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E24: The Purgatory Loophole [Cloud Quest, Part II + Limberry Castle, Part I]

    The stone chooses the flesh. You have chosen to listen to us as we’re wondering why Aerith needs money, laughing like Kefka, not agreeing with arbitration, spilling blood on fancy riggins, looking for a good drubbing, refusing to argue with ghosts, killing dead people again, crushing grapes, leaving a fearsome stain, playing dumb and dumber about mossfungus, listening in secret, sensing perversion, exploring the necrohol, reserving questions for the victor, distinguishing between vampire and pervert, and coming back to life because you have good hair. Please accept this podcast as a symbol of the church’s good faith.

    00:00 Fever Dream | 03:51 Intro | 05:54 Cloud Strife | 19:50 Lake Poescas | 24:25 Loffrey x Dycedarg | 35:07 Limberry Castle Gate | 39:37 Limberry Castle | 49:08 Limberry Castle Keep | 57:32 Real Net | 01:03:02 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E23: Sauce for the Goose [Bethla Garrison + Cloud Quest, Part I]

    Let’s away before we’re found. But first, listen while we’re ignoring height, raising a sluice gate, breaking Orlandeau out of the break room at work, questioning Valmafra’s allegiance, finding the one competent person who likes us, suffering a plague of fools, perverting an idiot, flashing that, gandering a goose, murdering a willing zealot, buying a flower, speaking to a robot, commanding that robot to kill, killing a different robot, turning a dragon into a lady, applying father’s mercy, coming from other space, and importing another protagonist. Best keep your distance, that man is not stable.

    00:00 Big Benefits | 02:51 Intro | 05:09 Fort Besselat Sluice | 09:18 Fort Besselat Stockroom | 17:10 Execution? | 23:45 Flower Peddler | 27:06 Mount Germinas | 30:44 Construct 8 | 41:08 Ries | 43:42 Cloud Soldier | 51:26 Real Net | 58:35 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E22: Wither Their Constitution [Bed Desert + Bethla Garrison]

    Now there is a podcast I had not thought to find in these wastes! Bathe with us in the muck as we’re learning from Matsuno why Orators get guns, possessing powerful evidence of the church’s misdeeds, staying two steps ahead, acting as expected, dropping spores in the wind, respecting the constitution, only understanding transactional relationships, excusing Orlandeau from villainous plotting, picking the same wall, resisting the poison, double-gripping the stabby knife, hacking blood up all over ourselves, and merging the templars with the perverts. It was 27 years ago and I don’t remember the details.

    00:00 Season 7 Winner | 01:43 Intro | 03:24 Paging Matsuno | 04:53 Outlying Church | 13:25 Beddha Sandwaste | 26:16 Conspirators Conspiring | 37:48 Fort Besselat | 40:16 Dycedarg Dices Larg | 50:31 Real Net | 53:21 Outro

    Final Fantasy Tactics E21: Authentic String Puller [Zeltennia Castle + Beowulf Quest]

    God is watching, have faith. God is also listening to us assuming the piss position, successfully whistling grass, gaslighting ourselves, flying in from Final Fantasy XII, pursuing beauty, acquiring heroes of myths and legends, ordering dairy from the liquor bar, caring not for coin, remembering Beowulf facts, befriending a dragon, wishing for the anti-pervert, quitting darkened halls, thinking as a free thinker, reframing Ovelia as sister-girlfriend, questioning our own motivations, and yearning to slay men of the cloth. The peace you hail is a vile farce.

    00:00 Cemetery Ethics | 03:41 Intro | 05:24 Zeltennia Castle Keep | 11:07 Balthier | 22:56 Beowulf Part I | 32:50 Beowulf Part II: Colliery Adventure | 44:06 Finnath Creek | 47:45 Zeltennia Castle Meeting | 57:28 Outlying Church | 01:08:21 Real Net | 01:12:14 Outro
