RPGs… in SPAAAACE!

RPGs… in SPAAAACE!

We're going to the only place where people can agree on what an RPG is... SPACE! Victor and Nadia, with a little help from the listeners, discuss their favourite RPGs set in space, RPGs that feature space stages, and RPGs that feature space travel regardless of how much of the game is played in the void of space. Three very important distinctions. All that and pretty much just that on this out-of-this-world episode of Axe of the Blood God. Except we don't discuss the game Out of This World because we all agree, not an RPG. Right?

Ocarina of Time, Final Fantasy Resonance, Nintendo Direct Impressions

Nintendo’s Summer Direct has come and gone, and with it a slew of announcements. Upgrades we expected, leaks we saw coming, and some exciting news that blindsided us all! Nadia, Eric, and Victor gather to discuss what we should be excited about and what has left us wanting. All that and more on this episode of Axe of the Blood God!

Final Fantasy VII Revelation and SGF Reax w/ Lucas White

Summer feels like it starts earlier and earlier every year. Is it climate change or because all the hottest games are arriving at Summer Games Fest?!
Nadia, Victor, and special guest Lucas White are here to drop all the spiciest takes on the biggest games and the dorkiest hosts in this pre-equinoctial episode of Axe of the Blood God!!

SGF Predictions, Mina the Hollower, 007

Summer Games Fest is nearly upon us and Eric will be in attendance. What do we expect to see and why does Keighley control so much of what we are expected to care about? Nadia’s been playing Mina the Hollower, Victor has a one-two punch of Y2K a e s t h e t i c games, and every one has some level of experience with James Bond, junior or otherwise, all on this freshly-picked rosy episode of Axe of the Blood God!
