016 – October 2022 *Retro Episode!* World of Final Fantasy (from Oct. 2016)



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

Technology has won out and the podcast recording for this new month of October 2022 was lost. Since it’s last minute and re-recording sounds like no fun, we’re just gonna post an old episode on the feed, one of the classics, the very first attempt the FFWiki did on podcasting.

This episode is about what was then the upcoming game, World of Final Fantasy and its demo at the NY Comic Con, also Dissidia NT, which was still upcoming. We also ponder the importance of Hiroyuki Ito and whether ATB and turn-based are actually meaningfully different.

This month’s FFWiki Podcast is hosted by ScatheMote, BlueHighwind, Technobliterator, and SomeColorMage. 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.


015 – September 2022: Is Final Fantasy Tactics Gay Enough?



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month we discuss the announcements Square Enix made at the Tokyo Game Show, and the many more announcements they made at the Nintendo Direct. We also ponder and deeply worry about the company’s continued interest in NFTs. Also for some reason NFL football keeps coming up.

Then we all ask ourselves “which classic game should Square Enix remaster/remake/port next?”

014 – August 2022: Why the words ‘Cloti’ and ‘Clerith’ are banned on the FFWiki

This month we cold open on a short discussion of the finale Kingdom Hearts: Dark Road in pre-discussion that we never actually circled around back to in the main episode, so I kept it. (SPOILERS)

As for the main episode, we cover Forespoken’s messy marketing campaign, discuss how awesome the remake of Live a Live is, and worry about Yoshi P.’s Final Fantasy XVI’s battle system. Then we do some actual Wiki Talk, specially the recurring problem of shipping wars happening on our Final Fantasy VII pages.

It is then decided that #clephiroth is the One True Pairing.

013 – July 2022: The Summer of Mobius



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month is just an epic. A troubled epic, which required some rerecording and please let me know if the audio levels are bad, I’ll try to fix them.

We go into the various nonsense of the modern age: billboards, NTFs, rumors of Sony purchasing Square Enix. And then for the main event, a quick summation and review of Mobius Final Fantasy, the highest profile mobile game in series history. It’s a fascinating project that dares bring revolutionary politics and post-modernism into a JRPG, but also squanders all its potential by being a disposable mobile game that was indeed, disposed of. SUMMER OF MORB!!!

012 – June 2022: Trailers!! Trailers!!



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month we actually *do* have a ton to talk about! It’s E3 season or Summer Games Fest season or the dead light of the long-past star we called “E3” season, whatever we’re calling this June Games Events stuff, and Final Fantasy brought it. We discuss the huge announcements for the Final Fantasy VII universe, including Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, the second part of the remake. Then we move on to Final Fantasy XVI and the implications of maybe no playable party. Also there are wagers. Things are bet, wisely or unwisely.

011 – May 2022: “E3” Prep and Square Enix Sells Eidos



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month… um… I dunno, man. I’ll be honest, we don’t have a ton to talk about. Mostly just shooting the shit about the upcoming Summer Games… Thing. (Whatever you call this June gyre of news media that replaced the now-dead E3.) Then we talked about Square Enix selling off their western studios and how weird… everything is. The economy is weird, games are weird, our energy is weird. It’s an hour of… stuff. Audio content has been made.

010 – April 2022: Sora Shows Feet and Housing Bubbles



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month the Final Fantasy Wiki spends most of its time obsessing over a very relevant and within wiki scope topic: Kingdom Hearts IV. It is the biggest news of April and thus, the topic that must be discussed. (And I wasn’t going to let the podcast happen without talking KH4, sorry-not sorry.) We then move on to the Final Fantasy XIV news and the horror of scarcity capitalism creeping into our precious digital socialist commonwealths. And this was recorded before the update on FFXVI, so we didn’t get to that.

009 – March 2022: Square Enix’s March Madness



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month Square Enix released four major games and we’ve played most of them. We start with the disaster that was Babylon’s Fall, then continue with the disaster that was Chocobo GP, then discuss the legitimately awesome success of Triangle Strategy, before ending on our plans to KILL CHAOS with Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origins. (Which might be a successful failure? Who is to say?) This episode we see how bad Chocobo GP’s demo can be, how much BlueHighwind wishes that every game was an SRPG, and how Princess Sarah destroyed true love.

008 – February 2022: The End of the Pixel Remasters



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month BlueHighwind Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. Square Enix has a big crowded release schedule soon, which starts off with a bang with Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster. We end up relitigating the same arguments we’ve been having about them and their production for eight months now. We then get to Robert Pattinson’s Final Fantasy fandom, Stranger in Paradise anticipation, and Kefka impressions.

007 – January 2022: State of the Wiki 2022



The FFWiki Podcast is the official podcast of https://finalfantasy.fandom.com, the biggest Final Fantasy Wiki on the internet – accept no substitutes.

This month BlueHighwind was too busy drinking Bloody Marys in Vegas, so a few other people decide to discuss this month’s news by themselves. A game with no release date got delayed, the president of Square Enix thinks the future is non-fungible, shipping drama went nuclear and the Italians saw more of Tifa than they knew they wanted to. We also talk about how 2021 went for the wiki and what we want for 2022.

(BlueHighwind apologizes he was on vacation and couldn’t post this episode to the feed until well in February, he’ll never take a vacation again if that helps.)
