Retro Encounter 485 – Final Fantasy VIII Part I

Retro Encounter 485 - Squall from Final Fantasy VIII

I dreamt I was a podcast host.

On this week’s episode of Retro Encounter, a panel of four veterans and one newbie take advantage of Zach’s absence to play the controversial but undeniably stylish Final Fantasy VIII. How do we feel about its unconventional design and storytelling choices? Is the cast of fashionable teenage soldiers brilliantly or nonsensically written? What does “Junctioning” even mean? Listen in to find out!

Featuring: Aleks Franiczek, Ben Love, Paul Skevington, Steph Sybydlo, Rob White; Edited by Zach Wilkerson

Opening and ending music by Miles Morkri
