You know who would be a great guy to cover the MTG/FF crossover set for your site? This guy who’s been playing since 1994, literally wrote a book about Final Fantasy, and has been covering Magic since before it was cool.

Today’s new episode is with @aidanis.fun. We discuss average games we love that don’t get enough attention. Listen along, if you dig it, leave a review and tell us what you think!

Genuinely curious to check out some hardcore Blue Prince journals for a project I am interested in doing. If you used a journal while playing and you wanted to share and maybe contribute some thoughts and commentary on some of the puzzles, hit me up!

“I can tell you a funny story, though. This was when I really knew our days were numbered..." I huge thank you to Chris Bieniek - former editor at VG&CE, VideoGames, and Tips & Tricks - for his time and generosity with this interview. Full transcript here 👉 www.forgottenworlds.net/blog/chris-b...

It seems Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Project Sylpheed, and Fallen Angels/daraku tenshi composer Kumi Tanioka is on bluesky - she didn't post much before disappearing but maybe a bunch of follows would bring her back?

The latest episode is live with special guest @idolismj.yase.world! We talk about our least favorite game in one of our favorite franchises. What is one of yours?

Another fun episode. This is such a rad podcast, tapping into my love of old games, and more specifically, old gaming magazines. Sub to it today, y’all and thank me later.

In response to the Polygon and Giant Bomb news, I created an indie and worker-owned games media starter pack. I’ll keep adding to it, so suggestions and recommendations are greatly appreciated. Please share!

What is an older game you love that doesn’t get enough attention?

Always retweet Breath of Fire IV.

One of my favorites. Huge recommendation from me. Really. This is the Tony Hawk of brutal violence and subversive storytelling.

Hey new followers! I’m a writer, publisher, and podcaster. I’ve got a great list of folks who are involved in creating printed books and magazines about video games if you’re looking for an amazing niche of folks to follow! go.bsky.app/Py2qArP
