This episode we discuss the 1996 John Frankenheimer disaster, The Island of Dr. Moreau. Or well, we don’t, we instead mourn the passing of two Final Fantasy mobile games. Or well, we don’t really do that either. We talk about the inevitable decay of cable network programming and inevitable decay of the Spoony One. And Moo Deng for a bit.

It’s an episode. We did the thing. That’s all I can say.

This month’s FFWiki Podcast is hosted by BlueHighwind, SomeColorMage, and Technobliterator. Podcast music is “La Montana de los Caballos Jovenes” by XPRTNovice off the OC Remix Album Balance and Ruin, based on Mt. Koltz from FFVI.

There’s BlueHighwind, there’s Techno, and there’s SomeComputerScienceMage, we’re all back together for this month celebrating FFXVI’s PC release and the weird history of Final Fantasy games on PC. Also discussed are Yoshi-P’s pleas for moral conduct in the modding scene, Nomura’s inevitable retirement, and a kind of grim acceptance that everything will end one day.

There’s a lot of news this month. Brave Exvius is closing down. There’s harassment against a voice actress. FF16 comes to PC.

But also I ramble for hour to help Final Fantasy fans understand football. If you’ve ever wondered why the Cleveland Browns remind you of Don Corneo, I’m here to explain that. Which team is Sephiroth? Which team is Lightning? Sportsball!

There’s no big Final Fantasy release to talk about yet because we recorded this a week ago and are not ready to discuss Dawntrail. So instead this month is basically just a generic video game podcast. The increasingly scare-quoted “E3” season has passed, we had some thoughts about it.

We talk about some Final Fantasy news, there’s not a ton. FFIX and Tactics remaster rumors. SE President “Kazuma” Kiryu is less interested in AI. Then it’s how excited we are for Zelda, AssCreed, Metroid, MGS, Demonschool, and how the bizarre 2010 Konami E3 conference still gives us life and energy years later.

Lots of news this month as Square Enix’s new financial forecast leads us to ponder the dark reality of a world where video games make less money. It’s a brutal period in the industry and that brutality has made it to Final Fantasy Land. Why didn’t you buy FFVII Rebirth? What did we do wrong? How did we fail you?

Then we talk about Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, a baffling and bizarre and sometimes amazing landmark feature of technical ambition gone mad. It’s the movie that led series creator Sakaguchi to a dark future of chilling in Hawaii for twenty years. Poor bastard.

Final Fantasy XVI has a second round of DLC, Rising Tide. (AKA: ROLL TIDE!) We can finally close the book on a game that… existed. Cannot really call it “beloved”, at least not by this crowd. It was definitely a complete product with a beginning, middle, and ending. It had… moments. Some of them were decent. So in the end… it was a game. Definitely a game.

We kinda ramble for the last twenty minutes. That scamp Yuji Naka is in the news. Free Companies means Prostitution according to Xbox. We discover something called “Project Hikari” is still on SE’s official docket for the Oculus Rift, though it must have been cancelled by now.

The SPOILER CAST!! B-b-b-b-bonus pod! About Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s ending and lore and… whatever all that means. Where we bring in Catuse, who has not played this game, mostly as a rhetorical device to bounce arguments off of him.

Somehow the conversation finds itself going to Danganronpa, Kingdom Hearts, *and* Homestuck. It’s the worst podcast we’ve ever done.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has been out for a month, which is just long enough to actually finish the dang thing. It’s a big, big game. And there’s a million things to talk about, from romance to sidequests to music to open world design to everything. This is an incredible game and surprisingly, even the wiki resident Oldhead Hater, had a great time. This podcast includes spoilers up to everything up until Chapter 14, the big ending spoilers will be covered in another show.

Apologies for audio issues in the first few minutes, it does go away quickly.

Today is FFVII-2 Day! Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 2 Day! FFVII Rebirth Day! None of us got early media copies, so we can only talk about what we have access to.

First off, BlueHighwind went to the cinema to watch Advent Children Complete (dubbed), and is shocked and horrified by how old he is. Then the entire crew has been playing the FFVII Rebirth demos and have thoughts. There is hype in the air. Will that hype survive the actual game? Well, we won’t know for another month.
