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™. Anyroad, have some Time Cues:We start the OSMcast!ing – 00:00General Gabbing (Introductions and explaining The Process) – 02:04The Great Final Fantasy Ranking!Part I: Where we talk about all the Final FantasiesFinal Fantasy I - 04:44Final Fantasy II - 10:36Final Fantasy III - 17:06Final Fantasy IV - 21:45Final Fantasy V - 32:13Final Fantasy VI - 35:37Final Fantasy VII - 41:41Final Fantasy VIII - 49:56Final Fantasy IX - 53:49Final Fantasy X - 58:24Bonus Game: Final Fantasy Tactics - 01:05:00Final Fantasy XI - 01:09:05Final Fantasy XII - 01:11:48Bonus Game: Lost Odyssey - 01:15:58Final Fantasy XIII - 01:21:18Final Fantasy XIV - 01:27:30Final Fantasy XV - 01:34:24Final Fantasy XVI - 1:38:10Part II: Where we actually rank said Final FantasiesThe Battle Begins - 01:41:39The Battle Ends - 02:03:09Oh! And if you want to see them all in one handy dandy graphic once we were finished, here it is (but warning it's a long long image):We also have YouTube Channels! Both for OSMcast proper and The Carbuncle Chronicle! Please subscribe, hit the bell, and share amongst your friends.And as always, feel free to leave us a review on Apple Podcasts! Oh, and if you still use Spotify, go ahead and get on that mobile device and throw us some five stars there too. Tell your friends!

We wrap up our conversation on FFVIII with our thoughts on its core themes and values and try our best to explain why this quirky game lives so deeply inside the hearts of so many people.
We reach the late-game exposition dump of FFVIII where Laguna and Dr. Odine explain the history of Rain and Ellone and the future of Sorceress Ultimecia.#finalfantasy #ffviii
We FINALLY get back to talking about FFVIII (under new branding!) and get to some of the best and most emotional moments including a beautiful embrace between Squall and Rinoa.
In one of the coolest and most heart-wrenching segments in all of Final Fantasy, the heroes of FFVIII go to space!
With one more Laguna flashback and after discussing the infrastructure of Esthar (no, seriously) we begin a series of "I've never seen anything like that before" moments in FFVIII.
FFVIII continues as Squall gains a deeper understanding of his own emotions, we contemplate our own introverted tendencies, and we finally make it to the incredible city of Esthar.
What do we make of the politics of FFVII's Avalanche? What game design fundamentals does The Golden Saucer teach us? How will Ash and Kyle unpack the idiosyncrasies of play experience and narrative design against the backdrop of larger, political and material, conversations? All of this and more in... a review of 1985's House?

Squall has to learn to be a leader quickly as Garden clashes with Garden in one of the most amazing scenes in Final Fantasy history. Plus, more FFVIII weirdness!
We conclude the creepy and incredibly intense first disc of FFVIII. We ponder on Squall's moral relativism, Rinoa's rebellious nature, and Irvine's insecurities. Plus, some thoughts on how this iconic section could have been a bit smoother.
On the 100th episode of Final Fantasy Weekly (where did the time go?) we continue down the path of FFVIII at the beginning of Disc Two. We get to spend a lot of time with Laguna in this one and that's always good.
We conclude the creepy and incredibly intense first disc of FFVIII. We ponder on Squall's moral relativism, Rinoa's rebellious nature, and Irvine's insecurities. Plus, some thoughts on how this iconic section could have been a bit smoother.
We begin our conversation on FFVIII. The first half-hour, we set up the big themes and legacy questions and in the second half-hour we dive DEEP into the intro cutscene. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/drew-creasman/support

This week continues the not E3 news, like and overview of Overwatch 2, and news about the Final Fantasy VII Remake part 2. Activision investigates itself, and also cancels a guaranteed blockbuster. Is a Jon Snow spinoff really necessary at HBO? Because HBO thinks so. Obi-Wan Kenobi ends in a perfect way. Meanwhile Sony is continuing to push its Non Spidey, Spidey Films, Top Gun Maverick is TC's best preforming movie, and Buzz lightyear fails to draw a crowd.

Now that we're through Disc One and Squall is dead, we're going to try a little something different by bringing on some persons of lordly caliber to do some high-level recapping and high level bullshitting: Curtis and Karl from the Every F'n FF podcast, purveyors of everything Final Fantasy and staunch defenders of Final Fantasy VIII. Discussed: the Final Fantasy with Blackwater; Squall is an asshole, but that's okay; Rinoa is good; more Laguna should exist; exploitation of FFVIII's mechanics, Final Fantasy VIII is the best one; big dumb bullshit; fuckboi energy; and more!

We discuss the game's divisive mechanics, amazing story concepts, fan theories, and defend our boy Squall against the unjust criticism.
