Episode 96 – A Couch Full of Potatoes

The hype for the upcoming expansion Shadowbringers is reaching a fever pitch! We have PSU.com game journalist Tim Nunes (https://twitter.com/timberelli) join us to talk about his time at the Media Event held a couple weeks ago, his time spent hands-on with the new jobs and new dungeons, and ask about his interview with Yoshida. We discuss the changes outlined on the latest Live Letter, and a lot more! We also say good-bye to Chille for awhile, as he temporarily steps down as co-host. We wish him the best!

Episode 95 – Live from Balmung!

This week, Klauss visits a strange new land, filled with characters role-playing a magical game called Blitzball! We visit the Balmung server to talk with special guests Keio and Cagi, members of the Kugane Koban Crushers team; as well as Aegir, one of the organizers of the Menphina Madness Blitzball tournament. The group helps explain how Blitzball is played within FFXIV, why the tournament was started, and how you can help support an amazing cause, To Write Love on Her Arms. We also discuss the latest news in the Final Fantasy universe, including the hype from the recent FFVII Remake trailer. Enjoy!
