Podcasts about role playing games

Whether or not you play Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, you may know that Nintendo's latest entry in its fighter series features more than a few characters from RPGs: 31 of its 82 characters are from our beloved genre, and that number grows if you want to bend the rules and include Mario characters because of games like Super Mario RPG and Mario & Luigi.For our purposes here on Rhythm Encounter, it's also important that the Smash Bros. games contain an epic amount of music and arrangements of these RPG songs, specifically created for Smash. There's so many songs — Ultimate contains 1,068 tracks — we asked our panelists to pick arrangements from any Smash Bros. game that comes from a game we cover. The result is sure to be, well, a smashing good time.Featuring: Mike Salbato, Hilary Andreff, Alana Hagues, Peter Triezenberg; Edited by Jono LoganTracklist0:10:51 - Hyrule Temple (Akito Nakatsuka, arr.

On this episode of Random Encounter, we're doing a little bit of cleanup! Some super interesting games were released at the very end of 2021, and we have some folks who played them!Audra is here to talk about her experience playing both Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space and its Chrono Cross-related DLC, Complex Dream. Dom is excited to chat about the recent PC port of Monster Hunter Rise. And Neal gets to delve into an incredibly long-running Japanese-only series with Super Robot Wars 30! Plus, Jono rants a little bit about finally playing Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age. (Spoiler: He doesn't love it!

Everyone has gathered at the base of the column from the vision. Will they ascend to a better world, or to a cruel and violent demise?

Another year of toil and wasted promise is in the books, so we take a look at stuff we liked, stuff that sucked, and whether or not we should try harder on this podcast in 2022. Other topics include Ethan's bizarre insistence to keep talking about the shortcomings of Resident Evil films, the thrilling highs and unfathomable lows of Nicolas Cage, and preemptively taking care of a  plot hole from our story so vindictive nerds won't bug us about it in the future.

The Mongos are revolting! The Mongos are revolting! As Anton strafes the Floating Palace, Mackie rushes to patch up the Grace. Meanwhile, Hilde is definitely leading the charge and not at all trying to break away to do something shady. Somewhere along the line Big Nikki realizes that the plan probably doesn't involve having a nice sit down with the Sultan to hash out a new union contract.If you enjoy the show, please follow us on your favorite platform for new episodes every Wednesday.  We also love seeing your 5 star reviews over on Apple Podcast; it really helps us spread the word and find even more fantastic audience members like you.

Once upon a time, an RPGFan editor remarked that Chrono Cross (where's that remaster?) smelled like a piña colada. This little side comment sparked an idea with our own Michael Sollosi about what other RPG and drink pairings might sound and taste like. Over a year later, four panelists have chosen some RPG music and drink pairings that are sure to delight.Of course, you don't have to drink to enjoy this music, and we obviously recommend NOT trying all 8 of these pairings in one (or even three) sittings, so if you drink at all, please drink your sidecars and warm milk responsibly.Featuring: Mike Salbato, Hilary Andreff, Michael Sollosi, Quinon O'Connor; Edited by Jono LoganTracklist0:06:54 - Grandport, City of Commerce (Yasunori Nishiki) - Octopath Traveler OST (pairing: Sangria Ala Felicia)0:10:35 - Zelda's Lullaby (Milk Bar) & Hilda's Theme (Milk Bar) (Koji Kondo, Ryo Nagamatsu) - The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Sound Selection (pairing: Warm Milk)0:29:32 - Gothic Neclord (Miki Higashino) - Suikoden II OST (pairing: Bloody Mary)0:33:46 - Draw!

Hailing from Portsmouth, Virginia, Christopher R. Rice is constantly writing, tinkering with, and running GURPS. A frequent contributor to Steve Jackson Games' Dungeon Fantasy and Pyramid, if he's not writing for GURPS, he's blogging about it. His site “Ravens N' Pennies” is well-stocked with more GURPS goodies than you could shake a stick at. This time we're talking about his March 2021 release, "Realm Management" which we both believe could be used by any roleplaying game GM. Yes, this is a GURPS focused discussion but there is gold hidden inside for any Game Master. I hope you find some useful nuggets for yourself. Thanks to Christopher for agreeing to do the interview.

Don and Jamie open the show discussing a topic from the forums regarding our favorite Holiday movies and transition into our main topic - The Island of Misfit Games. Just like in Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer in which Rudolph, Hermey and Yukon Cornelius discover the Island of Misfit Toys, Don and Jamie visit a different island at which strange, broken, or unattractive - yet fun to play - games reside. Can we find homes for these misfit games?

Long ago, the two podcasts of RPGFan lived in harmony. But then, everything changed when the Rhythm Nation attacked. Actually, that's not true. Rhythm Encounter was actually around before Retro Encounter, but Janet Jackson didn't record a song called Retro Nation, did she? (Did she?)Today we are getting elemental. Any RPG fan knows how important the elements often are in our games, whether they're core to the plot like in the Mana series, or important in battle like in the MegaTen games. We have chosen four songs for some of the classical elements — with mild influence from Avatar: The Last Airbender — then things get interesting in the second half. What elements resonate with you? Let us know.Featuring: Mike Salbato, Alana Hagues, Hilary Andreff, Michael Sollosi; Edited by Jono LoganLinks for this episodeYouTube: Konami's E3 2010 Press Conference ("Director's Cut" version)Tracklist0:03:29 - WATER - The Floating Imperial City (Motoi Sakuraba) - Tales of the Abyss OST0:06:53 - EARTH - Few Paths Forbidden (Hiroki Kikuta) - Trials of Mana / Seiken Densetsu 3 OST0:28:57 - FIRE - 96-:rip, or Cauldros' Day Theme (Hiroyuki Sawano) - Xenoblade Chronicles X OST0:31:53 - AIR - Eternal Wind (Nobuo Uematsu, arr.

It's the last stand for Finnegan and the Irapa as an overwhelming swarm of Vist make a final push to turn the Northern Plateaus into a column. 

Shook by the idea that we've taken free will away from the characters in our story, we discuss whether or not we have any free will of our own, or if the reason Jeff eats a turkey sandwich for lunch every day is because he lives inside a simulation. Other topics include Ethan imagining himself as an adorable garbage robot, how Jeff's dad has become the destroyer of worlds, and whether or not we feel emotions when we kill off our characters.

Marty, we've got to go back! Back to the... past. That didn't work. But on this episode of Rhythm Encounter, we're doing a console-specific episode, for the first time since Episode 1 (which debuted way back in February 2013). The Nintendo Entertainment System wasn't the first game platform, but its impact on the gaming landscape can't be understated. Plus, for many of us of a certain age, it was likely the console that really got us into gaming — if not RPGs specifically — thanks to the debut of both Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, among others. And that's why the NES was the perfect place to visit next for a console episode.We hope you enjoy listening, and if you have thoughts on a console you'd like us to cover in the future, please drop us a line!Featuring: Mike Salbato, Michael Sollosi, Jono Logan; Edited by Jono LoganLinks for this episode YouTube: Theme of Xemn - MSX Version YouTube: Dave's Theme (Maniac Mansion) by Descendants of Erdrick Wired: The Untold Story of Maniac Mansion Tracklist0:11:29 - Overworld (Akito Nakatsuka) - Zelda II: The Adventure of Link0:13:09 - Snowy Fields (Masatomo Miyamoto) - The Guardian Legend0:33:08 - Warriors of Sorrow (Akio Dobashi) - Lagrange Point0:35:11 - The Boys are Still Back (Dave's Theme) (David Hayes) - Maniac Mansion (NES Version)0:56:40 - Theme of Xemn (Yuzo Koshiro) - Legacy of the Wizard, NES Version [Dragon Slayer IV: Drasle Family (JP)]0:58:38 - Priestess Aria (Nobuo Uematsu) - Final Fantasy III (Pixel Remaster)1:33:48 - Sollosi's Bonus Track!Album links for places to buy, stream, and more are available in our post on RPGFan.Get in Touch:RPGFan.comEmail us: music@rpgfan.comTwitter: @rpgfancomInstagram: @rpgfancomFacebook: rpgfancomTwitch: rpgfancom

Glonk, Seth, Willub and Crispin have finally reached the Dwarven city of Magmatten, only to find all of its citizens turned to stone. The legendary Dwarven forgekeeper, DuPont, has informed the heroes that he cannot repair the broken Lyre of Natura unless the Great Forge is powered by a magical element known as a Sturmstein. These Sturmsteins can only be found in The Blighted World, a world that has been corrupted by demonic magic. In the Blighted World, our party will encounter unforeseen threats, old friends, new faces, and powerful songs. But has the Frost Mage's magic impacted this world as well? Are there other unknown villains that lurk in the shadows of this cursed land? Join us on this adventure in The Quest for the Best Song, Movement 23: The World of Blight.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/thetabletoptales)
