We're talking about Metaphor: ReFantazio on this month's Currently Playing with guest Shy Fox of the Fix Your Heart or Die Podcast. Fox has been exploring connections between the work of David Lynch and other media for the last few months on his podcast and while Metaphor doesn't really fit that mold, we're happy to chat about it here. Daniel is completely unfamiliar with the Persona/SMT format of this game so we get into the details of how these games work for complete newbies and discover that perhaps Metaphor: ReFantazio is a great place to start if you've always been curious but daunted by the Atlus formula. Later the pair discuss their thoughts on Transistor and Fox challenges Daniel to play Sword of Vermilion on the Sega Genesis.0:00:00 - Welcome to the Show, Shy Fox!0:09:40 - What Are You Playing? - Metaphor: ReFantazio0:42:38 - Backlog Recap - Transistor0:48:23 - Backlog Challenge - Sword of Vermilion0:52:02 - Wrap Up/PlugsCheck out Fix Your Heart or Die Podcast on Spotify, featuring Jonathan Off Road Rules: https://open.spotify.com/show/5stt5kNgqOKhlPs4jh7UoUCheck out Fix Your Heart or Die Podcast Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/c/FixYourHeartPod/postsFollow Fix Your Heart or Die on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/fixyourheartpod.bsky.socialListen to the Fix Your Heart or Die Podcast Original Soundtrack by Daniel (we didn't mention it on the show but the soundtrack will add more songs as the podcast evolves, and it will eventually come to Spotify): https://thesanford.bandcamp.com/album/fix-your-heart-or-die-songs-from-the-podcastDonate to the Crips for Esims for Gaza bundle here: https://itch.io/b/2965/crips-for-esims-for-gaza-bundleFollow the podcast feed on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ttwav.bsky.socialFollow Daniel on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/douibyorthst.bsky.social

Only one studio out there can inspire the following sentence- the first time I saw the menu UI in Metaphor: ReFantazio, I knew that Atlus and Studio Zero were cooking. They've mastered the art of making menu-based RPGs flashy and stylish, as well as mastering the "Persona" calendar-based structure in general. On several fronts, this is the best game this studio has made, but left us wanting in a few areas as well. Listen in to this deep dive discussion and let us know what you think!
