Podcasts about Square Enix

The Final Fantasy Tactics you played back on the PS1 is not the real Final Fantasy Tactics. In fact, if you played it in the West you missed out on entire games-within-games that not only flesh out the world of Ivalice, but hold clues to the future of Square Enix. And these secrets are all tucked away in... Sound Novels!That's right, this week Victor and Nadia are joined by experts in the history of Japanese adventure games, Tom James and BowlofLentils, to discuss how The Ivalice Chronicles is steering us back onto the path of understanding the lineage of this misunderstood genre. Visual novels, sound novels, adventures games, point-and-clicks, text adventures, dating sims, oteme games, galge? What do they have in common and what makes them completely different? Find out on this expository episode of Axe of the Blood God! Sorry if you thought this was going to be about like, the nature of remakes or adaptations and the Ship of Theseus or whatever, but we've got sound novels to talk about!

Player 1 vs The World's StrangeCast x The Lost Records Journal podcast is here for our custom Patreon episode for the month of August. Adnan Riaz and Adam Evalt answer as many Patreon-submitted questions relating to Don't Nod Entertainment, Deck Nine, Square Enix's Life Is Strange franchise and Don't Nod Montreal's Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, as well as so much more!

In deel twee van de Cryptocast deze week duiken we in de wereld van crypto games. Het is een jaar geleden dat we dit onderwerp bespraken en sindsdien is er veel gebeurd. Te gast is Samuel Hubner Casado, gamejournalist die al jarenlang schrijft voor Power Unlimited en inmiddels ook voor verschillende cryptobedrijven actief was. Hij vertelt hoe hij ooit met crypto in aanraking kwam, waarom hij na meer dan tien jaar bij Power Unlimited tijdelijk stopte en welk soort games hem zelf het meest aanspreken. Het gesprek gaat al snel richting de eerste crypto games die indruk maakten. Daarbij komen zowel de voordelen als de nadelen van web3-gaming aan bod. Nieuwe spelers krijgen bijvoorbeeld de mogelijkheid om daadwerkelijk eigenaar te zijn van digitale bezittingen, terwijl het nadeel vaak is dat de beloftes groot zijn maar de uitvoering beperkt blijft. Een concreet voorbeeld daarvan is Rebel Cars, een game die we vorig jaar al bespraken. Een andere opvallende titel van het afgelopen jaar is Hamster Combat, dat veel aandacht trok met de belofte om spelers financieel te belonen. De vraag blijft hoe goed die beloftes uiteindelijk zijn ingelost. Samuel vertelt ook over zijn favoriet StrayShot, een web3-shooter die opvalt door zijn blockchain-integratie. De game is nog volop in ontwikkeling, maar laat zien hoe traditionele gameplay gecombineerd kan worden met digitale eigendom. Ondertussen staan bij DappRadar de grootste titels van het moment vermeld, met World of Dypians als nummer één. Daarmee komen ook de grote uitgevers aan bod. Ubisoft lanceerde enkele jaren geleden Ubisoft Quartz, maar dat project werd geen succes. Square Enix introduceerde eind 2023 Symbiogenesis, maar trok daar inmiddels alweer de stekker uit. Het sentiment onder gamers blijkt nog steeds kritisch, en de vraag is of de markt al klaar is voor web3-integraties. Tot slot gaat het gesprek over de onderliggende platforms. Veel games bouwen op Ethereum of Solana, maar ook gespecialiseerde bedrijven als Immutable en Skale Labs spelen een belangrijke rol. Immutable is inmiddels uitgegroeid tot de grootste naam in dit segment, terwijl Skale Labs zich met een eigen layer-1-oplossing profileert. De conclusie een jaar na de vorige aflevering blijft dat er veel ontwikkeling is, maar dat de grootste doorbraken nog moeten komen.

I just may, whaddya say? Comic-Con came and went this year, and maybe because the MCU and DCU were so muted, but there were still some good announcements.

Air Bud is returning and I have serious questions, South Park takes time in its return, Star Trek goes all in on Comic Con, plus reviews of Happy Gilmore 2 and Fantastic Four!

Sony-owned Santa Monica Studio is one of PlayStation's first party powerhouses. Responsible for the God of War franchise -- and, other than Kinetica early in the PS2 era, only the God of War franchise -- there was some excitement building about what was next. But what if it's just more God of War... at least kinda? New rumors indicate that Santa Monica is working on something more familiar than we might have hoped, and from our perspective, that can only mean one thing. We discuss. Plus: Sucker Punch expresses interest in returning to Infamous, Ghost of Yotei gets special edition PS5 hardware and a DualSense, HBO's second season of The Last of Us earns a ton of Emmy nominations, concept art for Deviation's cancelled PlayStation exclusive emerges, Dragon Quest VII is apparently being remade at Square Enix, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! With the demise of Xbox's Turn 10 Studio, is it time for PlayStation to port Gran Turismo to its rival's machine? Is Colin totally off-base with his desire for Arc System Works to create a PlayStation fighter instead of a Marvel one? What's the worst example in our personal gaming lives of losing a save file? Should Dustin enter into an illicit relationship with an eager listener?

Is your PlayStation 5 about to break? Probably not, but speculation is increasingly circulating suggesting that the old run of PS5s -- pre-Slim and pre-Pro -- may start running into a 'liquid metal' problem that's causing issues for some players. What does this all mean, from where does this speculation stem, and what (if anything) can be done about it? We discuss in detail. Plus: Death Stranding 2 is out, and thus it's time for us to gush! Then: The other news of the week, including Hellblade II's PS5 release date, rumors of RPG progression systems in Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, PlayStation Plus turns 15, SEGA accidentally leaks a ton of sales data, and more. Finally: Listener inquiries. What's the best 'one-hit wonder' game? With PlayStation: The Concert coming Stateside, do we have any interest in attending? Which studio's three-game run is most impressive, quality-wise? Will you, too, find a Sacred Symbols shirt in your local Goodwill or Salvation Army?
