OK, Broomer (Final Fantasy Legend III Part 1)

We’re finally diving into Final Fantasy Legend III, aka SaGa 3! This episode takes us across the past, present, and future in our quest to stop the Water Entity from flooding everything everywhere all at once. We’ll stop off in Dharm, Elan, Lae, Viper, and Muu, and eventually blast off to Floatland for a showdown with Maitreya. Along the way we puzzle over the new five-step transformation system, wonder at the mechanics of nonlinear causality, and demand answers about Talons and their Units. And who or what is Xagor?

After Years II (FF4 The After Years Part 10-B)

At long last, the end of our Final Fantasy IV: The After Years series! In this special jumbo-sized two-part finale, Mike and Remy work through the extremely long final chapter, The Crystal: The Planet Eater.

In After Years II, we battle our way through the gauntlet of bosses on the alien lunar surface. Finally, we add one more creator god to our podcast’s kill count.

Evil-ution at Its Purest (FF4 The After Years Part 9)

It’s the FuSoYa chapter starring Golbez. Is Golbez’s first name Theodore or Selena? Counts rule counties; Count Malboros rule Big Mean Jerkface County. FuSoYa, the powerful Lunarian archmage, seems to have roughly six and a half MP at any given moment. How do the moon phases work when we’re actually on a moon? Is osmose secretly useful? Flashbacks to FF4 ensue. Lunarian nesting dolls are a thing. We shimmy and shake along with Zeromus’s Bonus.

This definitely shouldn’t be your very first Final Fantasy game. Right? It seems like maybe it shouldn’t be.
