Those Who Fight

We’re joined by good friend and games journo to take a big, extra-long episode look at the FF7 Remake. Josh provides an FF7 skeptic’s perspective to our normal patter and we talk about our initial impressions of the game’s faithfulness, the gigantic shoes it tries (and frequently succeeds) at filling, and our collective feelings on the franchise as a whole.

Join us for our goodbye to Disc One, and a temporary hiatus as we enter REMAKE WEEKEND. It’s 4/10/2020 and we’re very excited to tear into FF7R, but not before we deal with the most iconic scene in the original game - the events in the forgotten capital of the Ancients. We discuss our doomsday prep for the upcoming video game marathon weekend, how tamales for Easter are way better than ham, and we try to do our best to add some levity to what is, inevitably, a heavy episode.

Venture into the forest temple with us as Allen and Erin discuss the FF7 cast’s Animal Crossing fursonas, what makes a good villain, yet more Kabbalastic musing, and how we as humans try to explain suffering. Also a stuffed animal makes a noble sacrifice.

Hosts Allen and Erin spend the day in Cosmo Canyon, learning about planet science and the nature of the Lifestream - the metaphysical heart of Final Fantasy VII. Erin gives us a very brief introduction to the heretical teachings of Gnosticism and how it relates to many of our favorite pop culture artifacts, we kill a whole-ass boss with just a Phoenix Down, and we get decidedly serious talking about the unique pains of losing a parent.
