We finished Final Fantasy I! Time loops are literally the worst. How do they even work? Aesthetics of a fallen civilization: always be robed. Did they originally try to call it “Fighting Fantasy?” Really? BUT FOR REAL, THOUGH? Plus listen in to our very first Final Fancast “Final Fancast” where we discuss which character Awkwafina should play in the movie version.

One Last Thing

Here’s that old Nintendo Power bit Mike was talking about.

Let’s play the Citadel of Trials through defeating the Kraken. Mike vents his spleen about FF16. Remy vents their spleen about memorization puzzles. Mike encounters his very first time loop and has to replay the first game thus far. We have our first airship sighting in the series, our characters evolve like Pokemon, and we chill with our new bestie, Bahamut. What do the Black Mage and the Invisible Man from Hotel Transylvania have in common? Let’s think too hard about what oxy-ale is and how it works. Fairy slavery is very bad, actually. Don’t do it. Mike attains a surprising new credentials after being quizzed on dia-bility. Then we’ll get our James Cameron on and take this submarine for a spin. Finally, Remy forgets an important step in completing the Sunken Temple and Mike as attacked by Harry Potter slash fic.

We’re playing from the Lich’s defeat up ’til we nab the Fire and Ice Crystals. Lessons are learned along the way, like instant death spells sound metal AF but are bad actually. Plus we’ll take our first Mythology Minute (or five) to talk about dwarves and elves. Can we get some therapy for the guy who’s sleeping against a gravestone? What does any of this have to do with Mr. Bucket? Then Mike and Remy take sensory damage.
