- Love the format but……
I love the format but after listening to a few of the SNES square soft podcast hearing 15 minutes of the same backstory of square soft and there’s a bit much in particular for secret of evermore hearing about the backstory of the whole action RPG genre. I don’t really think was needed at this point it wasn’t the first action RPG wasn’t the second action RPG by that time it was probably a handful if not more action RPG’s of the same style.

I just found the podcast recently and so far am really enjoying it. The host really does his homework and digs up lots of interesting stories and tidbits about the development of the games he’s discussing. Great production value, and overall a really fantastic podcast, especially if you’re interested in hearing the history of how a lot of these classic games came to be.
