The game's Steam reviews now currently sit at 'Most Positive' after the patch went live. In related news, Pearl Abyss finally admitted to using generative A.I. for some of the game's 2D assets, explaining that they were meant as placeholders until proper asserts could be made. Pearl Abyss is now doing an audit of the entire game to replace these assets.

Hello Adventurers! Wait, is that how it goes for this? Does it even matter? Who knows! So this episode, theoretically a "bonus" episode, is actually a product of two years worth of work. In 2024, over the course of two different panels at MomoCon and KamiCon HAI (RIP), we had panels where we attempted to rank all the mainline Final Fantasies (plus two bonus games). As we had different people on each panel, we of course had two different rankings!  What was a podcast to do? Well, all six of us got together to record One Final (Fantasy) Podcast to determine the final ranking. This is that episode! PS You may notice that we have not indicated if this is an OSMcast! or a Carbuncle Chronicle episode. That's because it's both! Almost all of the OSMcast! side, and all of The Carbuncle Chronicle side are in this, AND it covers Final Fantasy XIV to boot, so it made sense to just call it an episode for both.  OSMnotesWhoo boy! This was a real pain to edit! But Basil also got real extra with the audio and music for the episode this time, so we hope you enjoy the half a year he took at poking and prodding this thing into Listenable Audio™.

The Round Table gathers. 7.3: The Promise of Tomorrow MSQ ends the Dawntrail ark in traditional fashion. Garrett, Kyle and Jesse freshen themselves up on the story happenings, having played it back in August. Preach, recently caught up, shares a fresh viewer's perspective. Is Calyx around for the long haul? What does that mean for the story and Sphene? What lessons have the devs learned from Dawntrail and what will they carry into the future. One thing is clear, FFXIV is a story first game and it's future rides on its ability to capture it's fans once again. 7.3 seems a solid start.

The tubes are on fire. Or maybe they have been for a month.

Indie games don't know how to price themselves in the wake of Silksong's release. We got the Yoshi P interview round up covering all the teases and perhaps walkbacks on the upcoming job update.
