Tetracast - Episode 262: JRPG Summer Deluge

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

As you may expect, this episode of the Tetracast is headlined by a lengthy discussion of Xenoblade Chronicles 3. We try to keep it as spoiler free as possible, only delving into the story elements of the first chapter or 2. We chat game flow, the importance of character dialogue, tone, combat, and more. Josh also touches on Digimon Survive, which released a few days ago.

News this week centers around another leak for Tactics Ogre: Reborn. While still not officially announced, we learned a lot about the game's graphical style, changes from the Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together on PSP, and more. Additionally, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic has 'indefinitely paused' development, as it seems Aspyr has encountered some development struggles, as reported by Bloomberg. We also have a formal announcement of Fuga: Melodies of Steel 2, Cygames has taken ownership of the Metal Max IP, and more!

This edition of the Tetracast features Bryan Vitale (@ZeoMassicot) Josh Torres (@HD_Kirin), Adam Vitale (@King_Seda), James Galizio (@Theswweet), and Chao Min Wu.
