State of the Arc Podcast

This game is beautiful, and the first Chapter, which we cover here, is not one you'll soon forget. Not only that, it's funny and strange in all the best ways. It feels like a taste of that golden age of RPG's, but one that many people missed out on. Play this game now, for your own good. You'll thank me later.

Terranigma is one of the most touching and beautiful games ever made. It is near the top of Mike's list of favorite games ever and Casen is now playing it for the first time. We cover the history of the games development, including why it never came to the America, and what may have happened to the lead developers who seem to have vanished in an enigma themselves. Much mystery surrounds this game, but we're here to unravel the mystery and give this game the proper treatment it deserves. Join us as we analyze and appreciate one of the great classics of the JRPG genre, The Creation of Heaven and Earth, 天地創造, Terranigma.

The Switch 2 has been announced, thus signaling that the end of the Switch's life is imminent. As we look back on a life well lived, we remember the good times. The games that made us laugh and cry, the experiences that we'll always remember. The Switch may not be long for this world, but it will always live on inside our hearts. May it rest in peace.

Join us and The Night Sky Prince as we discuss the future of Final Fantasy. AAA games have massive budgets and have become risky investments, which is why most studios prefer to play it safe when handling hundreds of millions of dollars to create one game. The downside of this is that players are left with a homogenized product that doesn't look or feel too different from the other games being heavily marketed. How competitive has Final Fantasy been in this strategy? Let us know your thoughts and leave a comment if you would like to contribute to the conversation.
