Tetracast - Episode 219: All in on Tales

Welcome to the latest edition of the Tetracast, RPG Site's regular, seemingly weekly podcast! 

In this episode of the podcast, we start things off going all-in on Tales of Arise. We avoid major spoilers of course, but we chat at length on our impressions on the visuals, the battles system, the characters, and how the game is ushering in a new era for the Tales franchise. We then go into some initial impressions on the other end of the RPG spectrum with Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, and we also go a little bit outside of our typical RPG wheelhouse with some thoughts on Life is Strange: True Colors.

For news this week, we have all the announcements from the PlayStation Showcase 2021, which includes an announcement for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic - Remake. We also got a reappearance of Korean action RPG Project Eve, several Square Enix announcements ahead of Tokyo Game Show, and more.

This edition of the Tetracast features Bryan Vitale (@ZeoMassicot), Josh Torres (@HD_Kirin), James Galizio (@Theswweet), Adam Vitale (@King_Seda), George Foster (@gepugg), and special guest George Yang (@Yinyangfooey). You can find links to the full episode of the podcast below along with our RSS feed, and also subscribe to us on iTunes or Google Podcasts, and follow on Spotify!
