RPG Backtrack

Break out the cauldron and polish that philosopher's stone, because it's Atelier April on RPG Backtrack! For this week's show, we discuss the four games set in Arland along with Sam and Josh.

Yakuza fans rejoiced when Sega remade the original PlayStation 2 game for modern consoles in 2016. Now we have Josh, Pascal, and Ryan to tell us if this remake was an improvement. We are also on the lookout for Majima. He's everywhere.

Persona 3 defined the series as we know it today with its social links and high-school inspired setting. Now that Persona 3 Reload is out, we thought it was time to dust off the Evokers and don our S.E.E.S. armband again. Mike and David both agree that Koromaru is the best boy on this week's RPG Backtrack.

With the newly announced DLC set to release this summer, now is the perfect time to have an Elden Ring retrospective. Both Chris and Pascal were summoned to the show, but despite their high intelligence stats, they're still unclear just how much George R.R. Martin was involved.

We laughed at the trailer, made memes out of the cut scenes, and wondered what Tetsuya Nomura was thinking when he decided that the original Final Fantasy story need a dark take. But we have to ask, was Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin any good?

It's time to get cozy on RPG Backtrack, with a delightful little game from Level-5. Pull up a chair, grab some tea, and head into a new life with Matt, Cassandra, and Kell, as we chat about Fantasy Life on the 3DS.

What happens when the Yakuza series jumps to the other side of the law? Sam, Josh, Pascal, and David all have answers to this question during our deep dive into Judgment.

We kick off a new season of RPG Backtrack by revisiting the game from the first episode that debuted nearly sixteen years ago! That's right, we are old, and this is a celebration of Super Mario RPG, with guests Mike Apps and Ryan Costa.

On this week's episode, we journey back to the realm of post apocalyptic Tokyo as we talk about Shin Megami Tensei V. Wheels and Ryan M. join the crew, on this exciting season finale of RPG Backtrack for 2023!

NieR-vember continues with a sequel that surpassed the original NieR in popularity and sales. Ryan (Scar), Josh, and Pascal visit the show to talk about NieR Automata. Everybody wonders if sexy androids dream of sexy electric sheep.
