FFXIV's Patch 7.25 has arrived, and with it came the much anticipated Field Operation content "Occult Crescent: South Horn"! It's time to break down the patch and give our review of Occult Crescent so far. We also discuss the other changes and additions that came with FFXIV Patch 7.25, but we will not review Hildibrand or the allied society quest this week - but we will next week! We also discuss the new optional items, and an upcoming physical CD from The Primals.

More news about FFXIV Mobile has come out - including screenshots! Some of the information is as expected - monetization especially - but other information is very interesting. The dye system, glamour log etc. We also review the Make It Rain Campaign for 2025, discuss the upcoming (currently released) Patch 7.25, and Krile's aether density.

Make It Rain 2025 has hit FFXIV, and we discuss the (then) upcoming event - will it be a banger or a flop? We also discuss Yoshi-P's upcoming appearance at Anime Expo 2025, the Twelve outfits, how GTA 6 might affect FFXIV (and all other games), and we take a look at Square Enix's 2025 financial report (it more interesting than it sounds)!

It's been a quiet week in the world of FFXIV as we slowly but surely get closer to Occult Crescent's release. While we wait we dive into our MogMail bag to read your questions and theories. Among the topics are: How are Seasonal Events made? How much info should FFXIV's devs reveal before expansion release? And in the Great Discussion we ask: Are the Scions starting to get too bland?

Not-E3 has concluded. A mad dash through trailers. A dizzying assault of the senses. What stood out? What got lost? Well first, Garrett got a Switch, and we sat down and played a big chunk of Mario Kart World. Sony State of Play, Summer Game Fest and Xbox showcase all tackled in order. Our list might not match yours, but we all walked away with the same conclusions. That's a lot of games! 

We're back, and it was a movie heavy episode, let's go! Netflix had their event, so we got to see some new movies, and some teasers for One Piece!

We've got a big channel update video out over on the Grinding Gear YouTube channel right now. Go give it a watch to see our new studio setup and hear what's in store for what might be the next ten+ years of our lives. Nightreign is dominating our minds and while it's not perfect, that's also what's great about it. We have ideas, the internet has ideas, lets see if this games got legs after selling 2 million copies. It's Switch 2 release week and there is an odd quite in the air. There is a new D&D game coming from the makes of Star Wars Jedi. All this, teases and more. Go watch the video!

In this episode, we tackle a long-standing frustration of mine: the current state of Final Fantasy XIV. As someone who loved FFXIV 1.0, I've long been off the Final Fantasy XIV train. Today, I have some negative feelings about the game's current state, so I wanted to talk to someone who still likes it.Alex Fraioli, who previously appeared on our podcast about Love Letter RPGs, returns to discuss his love for Final Fantasy XIV in the modern day.Visit Alex's website for his links.

Good games are good. And we've played some GOOD games. We didn't know we needed to play Blue Prince but we love it, and must play more. Monster Train 2 is more of the same, which is a very good thing. Final Fantasy XIV unleashed is Field Operation patch and its a solid compliment to the game, though many say they aren't returning to play it. Elden Ring Nightreign approaches. And more! Supportourbromance.com and your VAC ducts will align. 

Occult Crescent is right around the bend, but as we wait for it, we chat about recent FFXIV and MMO topics floating around in the world outside the game!

Grab your briefcase of your biggest words, gaming is doing the thing again. Bungie has been caught stealing art, but it's not just art, it's the whole look of Marathon. Ai Vader is dropping F-bombs in Fortnite. WoW housing is real, though they were a bit secretive about what could be shared. Magic the Gathering is doing great though. All this and more.

Meagan, Brian, and Brandon talk about their time spent on the new Cosmic Exploration content along with other recent FF XIV endeavors! Some music used in this podcast is from Husky by the Geek. You can find more of Husky's amazing gaming music content on YouTube at this link: https://www.youtube.com/@Huskybythegeek

Sick hosts, but sick games! GTA 6 has a release date and trailer 2 is out. World of Warcraft is giving players a way to play with a single button. The Final Fantasy Magic the Gathering set is now the fastest selling pre-order ever. Elden Ring Nightreign is looking real good. All this and a big dose of thanks from our sickness addled brains.

FFXIV's latest large-scale crafting content Cosmic Exploration is proving to be quite challenging for the devs to keep running smoothly. Several major issues have been discovered over the past week, and we discuss the state of the content. In The Great Discussion we also discuss Tural and Tuliyollal - Will we ever go back there in the MSQ or are we remaining in Solution Nine until the pivot patch for the next expansion? And in MogMail we discuss the names of the shards and how Calyx knows them, as well as job abilities! Welcome!

FFXIV's Patch 7.21 is upon us, and with it came the Cosmic Exploration content that's been teased for so long. Is it any good? We discuss our experiences with the content, as well as discussing some of the issues we've encountered so far. We also discuss the other updates that came with patch 7.21, new merchandise (microplastics alert), and we discuss the eternally awkward position for MCH in FFXIV's physical ranged category. Welcome!

And in MogMail we (meaning I, Lukile) finally get to talk about 1.0's leves again! We also discuss Hrothgar and Viera heads, and more theorizing about Occult Crescent.

Space Megaforce, courtesy of The Randomizer, FORCES it’s way into TADPOG. Get it? We certainly did. This game turns out to be quite the surprise in more ways than one.

The Roundtable assembles once more. All elustrious members have returned: Jesse Cox, Okaymage and Preachgaming. The cloud has lifted and celebrations ring out over the internet as MSQ returns. But who is the real bad of this expansion? Is it the new Calyx or is there a more sinister face in plain view? Will baby king say "I'm in"? Will the crew agree on Arcadion shipping? That last one wont happen, but the rest will!

Welcome to the latest episode of Crystal Core Radio Podcast with your hosts, Brian and Chris. This week, we delve into the ever-evolving world of MMORPGs in 2025, focusing on major developments and upcoming trends that could reshape the genre. The episode kicks off with a deep dive into World of Warcraft's ambitious new player housing system. We explore how Blizzard aims to redefine housing in MMORPGs by leveraging advanced technology, addressing past challenges, and what it could mean for the future of WoW and its community. We also compare it with Final Fantasy XIV's housing system, highlighting potential strengths and drawbacks. Our hosts also reflect on the current state of MMORPGs as we discuss the shifting landscape with players moving away from games-as-service models back to more traditional MMORPG experiences. We examine how these changes could influence player engagement and community dynamics. We give special shoutouts to our live chat members—Edwin, Chemistral, Black and White Duo, and Postum—for their participation in the pre-show chat, enriching our discussion with live insights. In addition, the conversation touches on broader gaming topics, including the potential remakes of iconic titles like Final Fantasy IX and Final Fantasy Tactics, the challenges of content pacing, and how to balance new player experiences with veteran engagement in today's gaming ecosystem. Finally, delve into personal gaming experiences, as our hosts share thoughts on taking breaks, exploring new games, and finding the right balance in gaming lifestyles.

FFVII Rebirth, McPixel 3, Eternal Strands, Turbo Overkill, Civ VII, No Man's Sky, V Rising, Overwatch and lots more in what we played! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Games approach! Xbox Developer Direct, Switch 2, and games-that-feel-safe-from GTA. Garrett and Kyle also enter the news cycle of FF14 and find it full of assumptions. The odd thing is that all these assumptions are true, but it does make for some odd coverage. We do have some facts though. 7.2 live letter approaches and the next big wave of content prepares to hit the game. Emails and more. 

Garrett never left, Kyle returns! Garrett has been holding down the fort with the JRPG darling, Metaphor ReFantazio, but had his struggles. Kyle reports on his domestic adventure culminating in a Steam Deck review of Rogue Trader. Apparently while we were “gone” the FF14 doomsaying department was in full blast, but numbers can be deceiving.  Supportourbromance.com or we'll put a big head in the sky.
