Episode 147: Wizardry IV - A Tree of Gods12 Jan 202601:28:12

The story of Werdna comes to an end, or several ends, as we discuss the metaphysics and metapuzzles of Wizardry IV's final floors. Above, below, and more - we're all here and we're going to look at how we got there. Plus: an interjection from future Sibyl!

The document I mention in the cut-in is behind this link, and I highly recommend clicking and reading through. It's a delight.

We'll be back next month with the debut of our Final Fantasy Origin: Stranger of Paradise season.

Episode 146: Wizardry IV - The Cosmic Cube29 Dec 202501:43:09

Folks: it's here, the final boss of Wizardry IV: a three-floor megachallenge known as the Cosmic Cube. We also include some host backtracking for items which are needed to find your way out of this three-dimensional disaster, and movie reviews with a side of musical critique! Get ready for an extravaganza.

Episode 145: Wizardry IV - The Maze of Wandering15 Dec 202501:04:14

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded during November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

This week gives us what your humble editrix describes as "the worst dungeon crawler map in the history of the genre". You wanna hear what that's like, right? 'Course you do.

Episode 144: Wizardry IV - Creatures of Light & Darkness01 Dec 202501:23:21

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded during November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

This week is... actually probably the nicest episode we're going to have for a while. Learn about pleasant nerds from yesteryear and have a laugh at some of the funniest "why did I do that" item tricks the game throws at you.

Don't worry, soon it'll get vicious again. I promise.

Episode 143: Wizardry IV - Realm of the Whirling Dervish03 Nov 202501:36:39

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded before November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

KNIVES OUT KNIVES OUT KNIVES OUT

Alright, here we go, it's what the sickos have been waiting for, the second nastiest floor in the game. See how different ports make this a different challenge for everyone, and watch procrastination bite people in the whole ass.

Also, Sibyl does a terrible Brenda Romero.

Episode 142: Wizardry IV - Temple of the Dreampainter20 Oct 202501:02:11

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded in November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

The first stage that gets some "okay, this concept rocks" out of everyone, and also inspires more rants than any other so far. You know you're in for a good time when the hosts begin to turn on each other, and we haven't even made it halfway through the game.

Episode 141: Wizardry IV - Death of a Thousand Cuts22 Sep 202501:17:45

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded in November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

You have hired a contractor to create ten different mad traps for the immortal wizard in your basement. A few suggested mazes. Some went to real Halaster Blackcloak territory with their suggestions for "paths through Hell" and "time upon space" and the ilk. In the end, one of the pitches you heard sounded incredibly plausible and pretty final: "What about land mines? Just all the land mines in the world. A big, unmarked field of 99% land mines."

The contractor was awarded a duchy and many, many soon-to-be-gibbed servants got to work...

Episode 140: Wizardry IV - The Catacombs25 Aug 202501:32:20

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded in November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

Did you know that they buried Werdna about half a mile under a portal to Hell? And somehow this is also where they bury a lot of the honored dead of the castle town? You can't think about this dungeon too long, it'll drive you mad in a "how does any of this come together" sense. Roe Adams III was a king for this, though.

Episode 139: Wizardry IV - The Pyramid of Entrapment12 Aug 202500:53:03

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded in August 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

This time out, the game explicitly begins, with one of the most infamous puzzles in the genre, and then... okay, next time. This one's not too bad. Also, dungeon ecologies, and what to do with a Dink! Next time we'll have the full cast as the chaos begins.

Episode 138: Wizardry IV - Origins/Mechanics28 Jul 202500:44:10

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded in August 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

So it's come to this. We're going to look at one of the granddaddies of the RPG genre worldwide... through the lens of the most controversial and dismissed title in the entire franchise. Welcome to Wizardry IV: The Return of Werdna, a game that eschews party creation and stat rolling for brutal puzzles and series mechanical mastery. Sibyl is back at the helm for a strange season start to finish. See who makes it all the way through one of the hardest games in the entire genre!

Episode 137: Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter - Endgame (Finale)14 Jul 202502:01:35

Editor's note: This podcast was recorded in July 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.

Here, at last, we come to the end of all things underground, and then we decide "what if we actually turned away from the sun and went deeper for a week?" to explore the bonus dungeon. Welcome to the climax of Dragon Quarter.

Bonus: Radio Manga Special (with Grant)03 Jun 202401:11:38

This week, have another bonus episode of our patreon series Radio Manga (in which Matt and Sibyl alternate deep-dives on single works with shotgun spreads of what each has been reading), but this time with a guest! Grant (of various podcasts across the years) joins the crew to take a look at Masamune Shirow's The Ghost in the Shell manga, a brief look at his career's English reflection, and a slightly horrified trip down the rabbit-hole of his modern output.

Grant showed up because he's part of a new project their team is trying to launch, and a fresh Kickstarter launching alongside this special episode. Give it a listen and a look if you want to hear a shady uncle go after what they deserve in a cyberpunk landscape... or other actors. There are other actors too.
