Dawntrail's final MSQ patch is out and the recent patch has given us a toe in the door. Runeworks, portals, Jotnar: the vocabulary is flowing heading into Evercold. We gather the Round Table once more. We look at the expansion that was and what we hope Evercold will be. Who do we want to see more of, what can they do with the Warrior of Light and which direction of the many options the plot will go. Jesse Cox wants to be punished. Preach wants to climb in that hole.

In the future, one MMO, Ultracraft, dominates the world. The game is so immersive and complex that millions of people play it, using cybernetic implants to fully live the game. A group of players eager to try out the new expansion stumble upon a mystery that reaches back into the real world. This is episode 0 and 1 of Bridget's new cyberpunk campaign that uses a fantasy RPG to resolve all action in the MMO section. It's based on her novel All That Remains, which you can start reading here. Content warnings for this campaign: sensitive discussions of personhood. Panopticon and the nature of artificial intelligence, war and poverty, labor camps, social isolation, suicidal ideation, self-harm, mind control, body horror, identity death, religious indoctrination, religious trauma, and child abuse. Bridget as the GM Ross as Galath/Chase Gordon Lydia as Viri Firethron Fae as Welltwo/Avril Lawrence Richard as Brooks Carlton/Schwarz

Gamescom 2026 came and went, and Blacklabel and Azzilee definitely weren't sitting there watching every showcase live.

Professor Matt Barton of Matt Chat joins Shane for a gabfest on CRPGs and other things video gamey, plus a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT. EverQuest and World of Warcraft still have players. What is Mr. T's connection to WoW, and are fools involved? A cruise through player activity stats for various MMOs, plus which MMO has (or had) the highest player base. Playing tabletop RPGs on a virtual tabletop versus in person. Shane's weekly game group has a hard time finding multiplayer video games they all agree on. Against all odds, a rhomboid is both a muscle and a geometric shape. The age-old question of what is a CRPG? Shane thinks Baldurs Gate 3 is the best adaptation of the tabletop experience ever in a CRPG. What does rat milk taste like, and is it good for the hair? The Army is giving time off to…. play a video game?? (What amazing game could this be??) MMO shooters for the glory of the state. Matt is very impressed with Fallout: New California. The legal ins and outs of game mods. Classic Ultima Online (multiplayer classic Ultima, not the Ultima Online MMORPG). The "1,000 Good Fans" theory. Shane and Matt used to play MUDs. Never cast invisibility on the fountain. Matt loves smashing rats, and Shane loves driving around in the Mako and blasting the crap out of stuff in Mass Effect. KOTOR essentially runs the D&D D20 system under the hood. Creators and companies becoming victims of their own success. Shane pre-ordered Star Wars Zero company. And of course the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT and more! Shane Plays Geek Talk Episode #294 8/31/2026 Like what you hear?

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn had the impossible task of rebuilding a failed MMO, and its music had to help redefine what Final Fantasy XIV could be. In this episode of The Music of Final Fantasy, we're joined by composer and musician @AlexMoukalaMusic to break down Masayoshi Soken's soundtrack for A Realm Reborn, how his background in sound design shaped his approach to composition, and what makes FFXIV's music different from the work of Nobuo Uematsu. We discuss Soken's philosophy of prioritizing the player experience in writing, the surprising techniques behind some of the soundtrack's massive sounds, why certain vocals and instruments are deliberately filtered for long MMO encounters, and the countless ways A Realm Reborn weaves the musical history of Final Fantasy into something new. We also talk about Uematsu's continuing influence on the series, the collaborative nature of FFXIV's enormous soundtrack, the importance of Yoshida's direction, and why Casen walked away convinced this may be one of the greatest video game soundtracks of the last 20 years. And according to Alex… the best is still yet to come. Thanks again to Alex Moukala for joining us! Check out his channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEKRfoZ5t1VBdWfn9k6UgXw Time Codes: 1. Intro (0:00) 2. Background on Masayoshi Soken and how the music of A Realm Reborn was made (5:46) 3. Breakdown of individual tracks from the OST (41:44)

Hello Adventurers! Right on the heels of the Berlin FanFest was Otakon, an anime con in Washington DC. They even had some awesome Final Fantasy XIV guests there, too! The men, the myths, the legends, Michael-Christopher Koji Fox (Localization Director at Square Enix) and Toshio “Foxclon” Murouchi (Head of Square Enix's Community & Service Division and Global Community Producer for Final Fantasy XIV), to be exact. And somehow, we were fortunate enough to get to interview them!  But to really give our Adventurers as much Koji and Foxclon content as we could, we also talk about two of the panels they were on while at Otakon. The ones we cover are Adventures in Localization: Koji Fox's Journey Across FINAL FANTASY XI, XIV, and XVI and Duty Finder: Otakon 2026 – A FINAL FANTASY XIV Community Panel. So this episode has plenty of bang for your gil! The Spoiler Food is: Evercold Shaved Ice “Thinly shaved ice, generously heaped into an oversmall bowl and drizzled with sweet-yet-tangy rolanberry syrup. Why it never melts is a question best served cold.” The reason that this is the spoiler food will be come evident during the interview. That said, oddly enough despite the name of the food has “Evercold” in the name… This episode overall is actually pretty spoiler light? But you'll find out why in the interview too! Funny how that works.  OSMnotes Thank you once again to Sqaure Enix, the Final Fantasy XIV development team, and Otakon for the interview. We say it a bunch during the episode, but it's no less true now. And here are some Time Cues: 00:00:00 – We Start The Carbuncle Chronicling 00:00:50 – Intro and General Gabbing 00:08:11 – Michael-Christopher Koji Fox & Toshio “Foxclon” Murouchi Interview @ Otakon 2026 00:08:11 – Some Post-Interview Chatter About Otakon 2026 and Their Panels 00:08:16 – That time when Koji approved of a badge pun 00:09:45 – Adventures in Localization: Koji Fox's Journey Across FINAL FANTASY XI, XIV, and XVI 00:17:42 – Duty Finder: Otakon 2026 – A FINAL FANTASY XIV Community Panel 00:23:30 – Wrapping Things Up! But… 00:30:20 – Then Anna Remembered Some Things! (Yo-Kai Watch is back, Nintendo Switch 2 version is here, and it turns out so is The Moonfire Faire!?)

Well clearly, we gotta podcast about it! So we did. We talk about the latest job, Bastion. It's a tank with couple of huge shields with guns attached for good measure. Then some wild speculations upon what the Ranged DPS job could possibly be! After that, we roam around our mind palaces to gaze upon the wonders of the new realmships we'll get to traverse next year. Plus, we got fresh details all about the various raid series… And a Gold Sauce update no one saw coming.  The Spoiler Food is: Stuffed Highland Cabbage “This traditional dish of minced meat seasoned and packed inside leafy highland cabbage, then stewed in a light broth, is sure to warm you up on the coldest of nights.” Once again, a nice warm meal to keep up going for all these ice cold details all about Evercold!

Photo by Michael Martine, Hamptonville, North Carolina, Oct 2018 Published 27 July 2026 e562 with Andy and Michael M – EMFCamp recap, whole lot of LEGO love, the game of life, a Playdate mini MMO, AR assisted murals and a whole lot more! Andy and Michael M start off with a recap of Andy's experiences at EMF Camp while Michael R is away for this episode.  Andy shares his experiences, describes the “Monumental GameBoy”, how visitors to his campsite enjoyed playing his LEGO pinball machine and his updates to the EMF badge (such as Pigs in Space!).  Check out the show notes below for a few visual links, including the Joust game for the Tildagon badge and more.  Michael M went to an event at a local arcade in Chapel Hill and only noticed as he was leaving that they too had a Joust cabinet game. Andrzej Marczewski wrote an article in gamified.uk about the game of life – not the one by Hasbro or Conway – rather the game of life itself with resources to manage and protect.   Andy and Michael enjoyed Andrzej's take, especially how he treated progress and score.  Going from the macro to the micro, the team also took a look at the Playdate miniMMO PointlessQuest.  Andy may give this a shot on his Playdate soon!  Next, it's on to LEGO, and there are so many new cool drops from Billund.  Andy already mentioned his pinball table during the EMF recap.  After checking out the playable Donkey Kong game, the pair then takes a look at the new Star Trek Enterprise 1701 bridge.  With 8 minifigs from the original series, and features such as the rocking command chair, transporter room actions and troubling Tribbles, there's something for every Star Trek fan. And the team just loved just how many LEGO bricks it took to make the Enterprise bridge set. Then, Andy and Michael take a look at how an artist created a mural using sketchar.io augmented reality – just like using transparencies and an overhead projector from days of yore.  If that doesn't ring a bell, have a look at the YouTube from the Computer History Museum below.    Many thanks to @lxs@fosstodon.org for sharing this mural designing video with us!   Who is your favorite original Star Trek character?  Have your bots

In Episode #754, acclaimed storyteller and video game writer Frank Barbiere (Astonishing Times) and award-winning game writer and comics newcomer Stephen Rhodes talk about Zero Instance, the first issue now available through Comixology Originals! Frank and Stephen are bringing their expertise in video games to comics, and the first issue of Zero Instance is now available. Here's this book's description: "Rhys, a directionless college grad thought logging into his favorite MMO was just another raid with his friends, but they are shocked to find their boss fight glitching. When Chris—his best friend—doesn't log out, Rhys is forced to confront a terrifying truth: the lines between game and reality are vanishing. As an experimental AI known as Braxir begins to manipulate smart systems, twist human behavior, and build a base of operations in the real world, Rhys must decide if he's ready to lead when the game is over—and the stakes are real." We talk about how this book came to be, who the various characters are, and what else Stephen and Frank are up to these days!

This week, Zak and Aaron are back to talk about the biggest event in the history of the games industry, and why it could still be considered a failure in the eyes of investors. That's right, Grand Theft Auto VI, the game to end all games and save manufacturers from languishing console sails, could absolutely flop. If its hotly anticipated online component doesn't just meet, but exceed the astronomical financial figures posted by GTA V since its launch in 2013, the future of Rockstar and its 5,000-plus employees may be a lot less stable than previously imagined.Sources:I Cant Believe You've Done This - PWee28Take-Two's real GTA 6 jackpot may not be the game itself - The StreetGTA 5 Statistics 2026 - Axis Intelligence ResearchGTA Online Leak Reveals $5 Billion In Revenue, Shocking Spending Habits - RockstarIntelGTA 6 is a 'singleplayer experience', leaving me to question what's going on with GTA Online - PC GamerGTA 6 Doesn't Mean The End Of GTA Online, Says Take-Two CEO - KotakuGTA 6 Has the Highest Break-Even Threshold in Entertainment History - GTABoomListen to Beach Girl on SpotifyCheck Out MosscatMarket on Instagram

Episode description (full):A trade group that speaks for nearly every major game publisher told California lawmakers that running a private or community server is piracy. The catch: you can download a Minecraft server from Minecraft's own website, for free. So what did the ESA actually mean?We brought back Jonathan Yarbor, co-founder of game-server host Nodecraft, to cut through the outrage with the actual law and economics. We break down the difference between a bootleg server that steals an MMO's revenue and the licensed community and private servers most players actually use, why AAA studios walked away from private servers in the first place (hint: 10 to 25 cents per player, per month), and the four-word fix Jonathan thinks changes everything: license, don't litigate.We also get into City of Heroes coming back from the dead, why Minecraft's real magic was never the game itself, and the legal-plus-technical-plus-revenue "trifecta" that's finally making publishers say yes. Context: the ESA's comments came while opposing California's AB 1921, the Protect Our Games Act, which failed committee on June 29 but was granted reconsideration, and the Stop Killing Games campaign says it's taking the fight national.Short description (for feeds/Shorts):The ESA called private servers piracy. Nodecraft's Jonathan explains what it actually meant, why studios killed private servers, and why "license, don't litigate" beats suing your own fans.Chapters00:00 Cold open: "Running a private server is piracy?"00:35 Meet Jonathan and Nodecraft, and why this got muddied02:30 Bootleg vs community vs private: the terminology the ESA fumbled04:10 Your town's Minecraft server is fine (and legal)07:20 Why AAA studios really killed private servers: follow the money10:00 The 10-25¢ per player problem and the live-service runway11:40 License, don't litigate: what the mod lawsuits actually show13:30 Rockstar, FiveM, and licensing IP like it's Roblox19:00 Games don't have to die: City of Heroes, Project 1999, Black Mesa22:30 The trifecta: legal + technical + revenue, and Nodecraft Studio28:00 Trust & safety, tooling, and why publishers are leaning back in34:00 Minecraft was never built as a model game: forever fans37:00 Where to find Jonathan and NodecraftMentioned in this episodeNodecraft — game-server hosting: nodecraft.comAB 1921, the Protect Our Games Act — California's Stop Killing Games-backed bill (Assemblymember Chris Ward)The ESA (Entertainment Software Association) and its private-servers clarification

We are joined by returning guest JoCat and new guest Vulpixie for a Pokemon Roundtable! Vulpixie in addition to be a popular FFXIV guest request has had a long line of Pokemon passions, including her own name sake. Before we hit the elite four in our first ever Nuzlocke, we sit down with our panel of passionate Pokefans to discuss many things. Nuzlockes of course, but a plethora of fan games, mods and community modes. From old to modern games, this chat covers it all. Supportourbromance.com and chat won't lie anymore about Lance.

You did this! Pat, of PatStaresAt and CastleSuperBeast, is not even a request, he's required. Viewers from both sides sent the messages and made this happen. Pat is a long time Final Fantasy Fan and XIV enjoyer who has had nobody to talk to. He also just so happens to be a Metal Gear lover and a celebrated opinion haver. Enjoy our first meeting, you monsters. Supportourbromance.com or we'll reverse the looks max again.

A special roundtable gathers to discuss the absolute cinema of the anime seasons: Witch Hat Atelier. We are joined by returning guest Pint, new guest Girl_DM, and surprise guest: the English voice actor of Qifrey, Joshua Waters. Sit back, draw a real nice circle and join us for a chat about this wonderful show. (There will be no spoilers past the point of the show, though several of us have read the manga and many allude, dance around or share excitement for the future. Supportourbromance.com or your hat will be evil.

We sit down with Pokemaster JoCat to learn a thing to or about the wild world of Nuzlockes! JoCat is fresh off their own Pokemon Journey and shares all the required rules for our upcoming Soul Silver / Heart Gold adventure. But It doesn't stop there: Garrett and Kyle have built the tech to take this adventure to the next level. Our upcoming Soul Link adventure will be also Randomized. Jocat has a few tips and house rules that might elevate some pressure, but it's going to be an uphill battle with our terribily outdated knowledge. We also open some random starters to get a feel for the meta and what we will need to know. Supportourbromance.com and all your pulls will be Garchomp.
