This week, Austin is flying solo to talk about all that Dragon Quest Monters: The Withered World news we've gotten this past week, including the new characters, villain, worlds, and gameplay mechanics. He also discusses the new Dragon Quest board game, which will hopefully release outside of Japan one of these days.
The descendant of Erdrick has arrived. Brian, Chris Worthington, Jon and Leah examine the first entry in the legendary Dragon Quest series. Join them as they discuss the history and impact of the JRPG that birthed an entire genre.
On this episode of Big Eyes, Jay and AD go on a comprehensive journey through the works of Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dr. Slump and Dragon Ball.
Support my work on Patreon- https://patreon.com/realdavejackson Discord, Socials and more- https://linktr.ee/talesfromthebacklog Join Dave and special guest Andre (Fine Time, Neo Geo Go!, The Silent Discographer) as they discuss Square Enix's latest entry in the main Dragon Quest series, Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age. For a certain style of RPG (that Dragon Quest arguably pioneered), it doesn't get better than this. Dragon Quest XI doesn't reinvent any part of its genre, but executes at top level throughout, though we still have some questions about directions that the story goes. This is a masterpiece, and we hope you enjoy the conversation. As always, no spoilers for a while- enjoy!

It's a Smash or Dash episode of roleplaying royalty! Dragon Quest's Bianca and Sylvando go at it, followed by Persona's Makoto Yuki and Yu Narukami. Who comes out on top?
We all start somewhere! 0:00 - The marketing for Ebenezer is... silly 8:50 - The marketing for Matchbox is... silly 17:20 - Recovering from the stream crash 20:45 - The MCU movies have a pretty good batting average 1:04:57 - Sometimes social media demonstrates at least surface level media literacy! If you missed Saturday's live broadcast of Molehill Mountain, you can watch the video replay on YouTube. (A technical issue forced me to split the stream in two. Second part here.) Alternatively, you can catch audio versions of the show on iTunes. Molehill Mountain streams live at 7p PST every Saturday night! Credits: Molehill Mountain is hosted by Andrew Eisen. Music in the show includes "To the Top" by Silent Partner. It is in the public domain and free to use. Molehill Mountain logo by Scott Hepting. Chat Transcript: 6:57 PM@jaredknisely6213is anything your style 7:16 PM@bryangillis1362Hello all, happy Saturday! 7:16 PM@bryangillis1362Ugh, sorry to hear about all the stream troubles 7:18 PM@jaredknisely6213its only 20 min worth a try to see if if works 7:18 PM@jaredknisely621320 in 7:24 PM@bryangillis1362Hello again 7:25 PM@jaredknisely6213yes yes 7:27 PM@jaredknisely6213needs to be at 50 is in you need pay for that but thats more money 7:29 PM@jaredknisely6213if you can only switch off the worst isp in the us 7:33 PM@jaredknisely6213phase 2 is were you should compare, its unfair to compare to phase 1 7:33 PM@jaredknisely6213phase 1 is the best then 3 lastly 2 7:34 PM@jaredknisely6213phase 1 has 3 of the best superhero films ever made 7:37 PM@bryangillis1362Definitely my tastes are changing, but I was an adult the whole way through. I think it's more than I just got enough of it and wanted something different 7:39 PM@LeeShowronsHey 7:40 PM@jaredknisely6213i dont enjoy anything of modern disney 7:40 PM@addictedtochaos2Captain America: The Winter Soldier is the best of the MCU 7:41 PM@cat_woehey Andrew, I also thought the MCU movies were meh overall, but I remember having fun with Thor Ragnarok in particular 7:46 PM@addictedtochaos2Winter Soldier is a political thriller with superheroes in it. 7:46 PM@bryangillis1362Arguably She-Hulk is an outright comedy with superheroes 7:49 PM@LeeShowronsThey are on Toy story five already. And the first Toy story has been around since 1995. I thought toy story would be done for by now. 7:49 PM@bryangillis1362Live-action remakes can be done well. One Piece is a great example, largely because it does a lot of work to fix the issues with the original series while maintaining the spirit 7:53 PM@jaredknisely6213still dont know why you dont like the clone wars 7:55 PM@addictedtochaos2The New Jedi Order series of books killed my love of Star Wars. 7:55 PM@jaredknisely6213that was last jedi for me 7:56 PM@LeeShowronsI know Star Wars seemed better when Disney didn't own it 7:56 PM@addictedtochaos2Nothing noticeable on this end. 7:56 PM@jaredknisely6213there hasnt been a buffer since the change 7:58 PM@bryangillis1362Madisyyn or something 7:58 PM@addictedtochaos2The worst live action adaptation I've seen is Dragon Ball Evolution. 8:01 PM@LeeShowronspeople would disagree with that people think the live action in Mario movie is the worst 8:01 PM@addictedtochaos2I haven't seen Mario. 8:04 PM@jaredknisely6213thats where we differ, the prequels are awesome the sequels are trash and rogue one is also awesome 8:04 PM@addictedtochaos2George Lucas is a great storyteller in terms of big picture, but he needs someone to fine tune it, especially with scripts. 8:09 PM@LeeShowronswell, since it's been that long ago, he's gonna be an adult by now. I wonder if he'll remember that. 8:22 PM@jaredknisely6213i was 5 when ep 2 came out thats why i like it more than i should 8:28 PM@bryangillis1362Like how you now say Trails is better than Dragon Quest, but DW is still your favourite 8:28 PM@bryangillis1362*DQ 8:28 PM@bryangillis1362Not that DQ is bad obviously 8:30 PM@bryangillis1362See you tomorrow!

From the visceral excitement over Wolverine's next chapter to the subtle teasing of beloved classics like Star Fox and Gears of War, this episode dives into the biggest reveals that are shaping 2023's gaming landscape. You'll discover why Nintendo dominated with strategic drops, how the new Final Fantasy reveals are raising eyebrows, and why some franchises like Persona and Gundam are igniting passionate debates among fans and critics alike. We break down: Why Wolverine's gameplay made us feel like kids again while the voice acting left us divided. The power dynamics of NBA star Carmelo Anthony's legal case and what it reveals about justice. How the online Gundam community is struggling with new directions, and whether the reimagining of classic titles like Onimusha can reignite franchise flames. Plus, we discuss the frenzy around the return of Air Force Ones, the hype for new Dragon Quest titles, and the controversy surrounding race and representation in gaming. You'll also get insights into the industry's shady attempts at recycling content—whether it's rehashing Final Fantasy or the endless loop of Persona updates. Why do some games hit while others are left to languish? What does it mean when beloved characters like Sephiroth or Kratos get reimagined with questionable voice acting? All of this, plus commentary on the shifting landscape of gaming business models, indie support, and the culture of hype that elevates or destroys franchises overnight. This episode is perfect for die-hard fans craving detailed analysis, casual gamers wondering what all the buzz is about, or anyone who wants to understand the real stories behind the biggest gaming moments of 2023. Don't miss out on the insights that will shape your next gaming purchase—and keep you ahead of the hype cycle.

As “circunstâncias sem precedente” atacam de novo e desta vez a vítima foi o Steam Deck. O portátil da Valve recebeu um aumento considerável de mais de 40% em seu preço, fazendo um dos seus modelos saltar para o preço de quase mil dólares e nos fazendo ponderar sobre o mercado de hardware inteiro. Apesar do futuro não parecer muito promissor, o passado oferece algum acalento através de Witcher 3, que mais de uma década após o seu lançamento ganhará uma expansão, marcada para 2027. A edição também também conversas sobre o ressurgimento de Dragon Quest 12, o fim de Call of Duty no PS4 e Xbox One, e mais.Participantes:Guilherme JacobsHeitor De PaolaAssuntos abordados:14:00 - Valve aumenta o preço do Steam Deck em mais de 40%40:00 - Witcher 3 ganhará uma nova expansão em 202753:00 - Dragon Quest 12 teve desenvolvimento reiniciado internamente, agora é Dragon Quest 12: BeyondDreams1:00:00 - Call of Duty deste ano e Warzone deixarão o PS4 e o Xbox One1:09:00 - Contradizendo seu relatório fiscal, reportagem indica que a Nintendo deve produzir 20 milhões de Switch 2 até 20271:13:00 - Rápidas e curtasLinks citados:I've been playing games for 40 years, writing about them for 20, and I'm here to say Roblox's microtransactions need drastic government interventionInterview: Mike Fischer (VP/SOA Product Manager) COLLAPSE of Personal Computing | Investigation Into the Destruction of Ownership Vai comprar jogos na Nuuvem?

The Dragon Quest 40th Anniversary livestream has come and gone, and the reaction from fans has been... mixed. After years of silence, Square Enix finally reintroduced Dragon Quest XII, but the announcement raised lots of questions. Why was the game rebuilt from the ground up? What happened during development? Could starting over actually be the best thing that ever happened to the project? Joining me this week is Darryl from Final Fantasy Union as we discuss the Dragon Quest XII reveal, Square Enix's latest financial results, Capcom's remarkable resurgence, and the development philosophies that have separated Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy for nearly forty years. We also dive into the development history of Chrono Trigger, the legacy of Yuji Horii and Hironobu Sakaguchi, and why some classic RPGs continue to resonate with new generations of players decades after their release.

The guys are back after a two-month hiatus, jumping straight into a lively session that kicked off with some beer tasting and a critique of increasingly generic AI-generated descriptions. After experimenting with new prompts to inject some humor back into the AI's output, the guys shifted gears to discuss recent gaming developments, including the new direction for Dragon Quest 12 and the expanding cinematic universe connecting Control and Alan Wake. The bulk of the conversation focused on the "hate-playing" phenomenon—the shared habit of sticking with subpar games until the credits roll, from frustrating NES platformers to disappointing PS3-era shooters. Looking ahead, the guys are already prepping for the next episode, where they'll be digging into games they believe only they have played.
Tonight's questions:- Should Xbox remove competitors' logos?- Why don't Sony and Nintendo show competitors' logos?- Will hardware prices drive casual gamers away?- Did we judge the Switch 2's price too harshly?- Will we see a Steam Deck 2?- Who will have the biggest SGF surprise?- What games can offset rising console prices?- Will Sony's failures come back to bite it?- What do you want to see from Dragon Quest?- What are your favorite JRPGs?- Which engine should Capcom vs. SNK 3 run on?- What fighting game franchise needs to return?- What would get you to buy a next-gen console?- How do I get into The Witcher 3?- What is your favorite game soundtrack?- Should FromSoft retire boss runbacks?Thanks as always to Shawn Daley for our intro and outro music.

Mina the Hollower is a delicious 7-layer dip of beloved video games. It looks and feels like a gothic Zelda, but its influences stretch far beyond Nintendo's action-adventure series. The Besties are joined by Jason Schreier (from Bloomberg and Triple Click) to burrow through one layer after another to uncover its many secrets. In the back half, we talk about the big news of the week: Dragon Quest 12's development reboot and the end of Destiny 2. Get the full list of games (and other stuff) discussed at www.besties.fan.

What are the best RPGs for someone who has never played a JRPG before? Which games teach the foundations of the genre without overwhelming new players? And which games can genuinely turn a casual player into a lifelong fan? We break down why games like Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest, Pokémon Yellow, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, Persona 5, Golden Sun, EarthBound, Suikoden II, Super Mario RPG, and Final Fantasy IV remain some of the most approachable and emotionally resonant entry points into the genre. Along the way, we talk about: Why turn-based combat is NOT outdated, the hidden brilliance of abstraction in classic JRPG design, why Pokémon “hacks into the childhood psyche”, how JRPGs teach players complex systems intuitively, why nostalgia is actually a good thing, and the games we'd introduce to our own children. Whether you're trying to introduce a friend, spouse, or child to JRPGs for the first time, or you're just reflecting on the games that shaped you, this was one of our favorite conversations in a long time. #JRPG #ChronoTrigger #FinalFantasy #Pokemon #Persona5 #EarthBound #Suikoden #GoldenSun #Nintendo #RetroGaming #VideoGames #ResonantArc Time Codes: 1.

I think that usually when I put a game down like that, I don't come back to it. Do you have any success stories of returning to a game like this?

Idk if I would've gotten back to it if not for that)Jtlawbass: Has a game ever inspired you to do something outside of gaming? For example, last year Clair Obscur made me want to learn French, (I never did because I got too busy.) and this year Forza Horizon 6 makes me want to buy a fast car, (I probably won't.) but that made me curious about if that has ever happened to anyone else.What we're playing: Mary: Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Hades 2, Silksong John: The Last Remnant RemasteredGreg: Marvel Rivals random Switch 1 games Brett L: Adventures of Elliot demo (beat), Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, 007 First LightBrett M: Ghost of Yotei (beat) Stellar Blade (beat) 007 First Light

Email your questions to the podcast here. Nintendo seems to have an investor problem as stock dropped nearly 10% following the Switch 2 price increase and the company's latest fiscal year reports. This week on Nintendo Pow Block, Edward Varnell and Corey Dirrig discuss what is driving investor concern and whether this is simply short-term market reaction.Edward and Corey also discuss Nintendo's new “Choose Your Game” Switch 2 bundle, Nintendo's promise that more major first-party games are coming, and new data around early Switch 2 adoption from Tomodachi Life. They also talk about rumored Unreal Engine 5 support for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, new Star Fox amiibo features, and how Nintendo is handling pricing, game releases, and overall momentum during the Switch 2's first year.Capcom is celebrating another record-breaking year with Resident Evil surpassing 200 million units sold, raising questions about long-term franchise dependence versus sustainable growth. Square Enix is continuing its aggressive multi-platform push with a clear focus on Switch 2 support, while Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii teases a possible reveal during the franchise's 40th anniversary livestream. Meanwhile, Sega officially steps away from its “Super Game” initiative, signaling a shift back toward traditional development strategies.They also talk a little bit about Ken Levine's comments on diminishing returns in graphics, ConcernedApe expanding Haunted Chocolatier's scope, and Moss coming to Switch and Switch 2 without VR. Listener questions round out the episode with topics ranging from Nintendo's handheld identity to Mario Kart's possible live service future and how Nintendo is pacing its 2026 lineup.This and more on Nintendo Pow Block!

We complete my goal to cover the first two Dragon Quest games, and here is the 2nd one. I came into this with low expectations, and was blown away. This game takes everything from one and really improves on it and gives you an amazing RPG, that still holds up. We all played the HD remake version. Come hear how we felt about this old RPG in the modern day and what it means to us. Starring Mike Albertin, Barry Carenza, Kyle G, and Nate.
