South Figaro Podcast

While LockedonTarget enjoys the premiere of Avengers: Age of Ultron (lucky bastard), the usual four members of South Figaro tackle the week's series of unfortunate events. I channel my inner Blue Map about Konami's past, present, and future incompetence, Fencingsax ponders with me about the implications of Square Enix's feedback frenzy with Final Fantasy XV, and TDOT rounds things off with Valve's missteps with paid mods. Attention, companies! Stop being stupid!

The new Mortal Kombat is turning everyone into a glutton for punishment. How much can I tolerate of pop idolo RPG Omega Quintet? Can we embrace the new Star Ocean while ignoring the sins of Tri-Ace's past? Will I be able to listen to TDOT's rants of Free-To-Play games without gushing over the latest footage of the new Dissidia? It's a test of tolerance up until the very end, so dance and dine the night away.

Aside from the Deus Ex reveal, it's been a rather quiet week, so the gang and I spend some time talking about games you should have played by now, movies that I should have watched by now, and a bunch of other stuff. It's a chill episode for a chill week, so chillax with the rest of us inside.
 

Not everything in April is a lie, as Nintendo recently revealed new details on several upcoming games; join the six-man crew of Fencingsax, Somestickguy, ThatDudeOverThere, Blue Map, LockedonTarget and myself as we cover a wide variety of topics ranging from Fire Emblem's double dose of anime and waifus to Wrestlemania to Freemium gaming.

The Anime Spoilercast has returned, with Somestickguy sharing his thoughts on two of the recently concluded Anime series Parasyte and Your Lie in April. We also discuss Stick's progress report on Evangelion and JoJo, the debate on whether every show should have two openings, and what notable shows there are for the newest season.

It's been a busy week in news and releases, and we foolishy try to cover all of it in this episode. As if the discussions of Bloodborne, Kojima leaving Konami and Nintendo going mobile weren't enough, I subject Blue Map, Fencingsax, LockedonTarget and ThatDudeOverThere to something far more terrifying then anything Lovecraft could ever unleash from the dephs of his depraved soul. Suffer along with us in this plus-sized podcast episode.

We have arrived! LockedonTarget, Renzo, Fencingsax and Somestickguy join me in celebrating the double-decker launch of Final Fantasy Type-0 HD and Final Fantasy XV: Episode Duscae. We talk about our initial impressions of Type-0 after the first couple of chapters while being teased by Renzo of things to come (and also how to suck less at the game). We then move onto the FFXV demo....or is it better to call it a beta, while discussing the various pros and cons and missed opportunities with this early look at the long-developed epic.

We're less than a week away from the release of Final Fantasy: Type-0 HD and the FFXV Demo! Let's all get together and celebrate all the awesomeness happening this month....oh, we want to talk about all of the terrible things happening in the games industry instead? Sure, that's fun too....Also, Blue Map talks up the Netrunner CCG with Fencingsax, ThatDudeOverThere discovers a new passion with Orcs Must Die, LockedonTarget goes further down the Anime hole with Dragon Ball Xenoverse, and I try to convince everyone that Final Fantasy is worth getting excited about again while also pitching Michael Bay's next potential blockbuster.

It's a clash of idealogies as I have a roundtable discussion with Fencingsax and Blue Map about Final Fantasy XII. Do innovative gameplay mechanics make up for a poorly realized story? Has Matsuno managed to avoid scrutiny over his half-finished works? Should we believe Ondore's lies?

It's Minglin' Time! Five adults with attitude come together to discuss the latest happenings, from Final Fantasy XIV's best/worst update ever to the mature (labeled) changes happening with certain franchises and the not-so-mature depictions of others. Plus, Blue Map shows off his endorsement skills once again while the rest of us have an in-depth dialog about internet personalities and their tired routines.
