Deep Listens is a gaming podcast series I'm recording with a few of my friends. Every two weeks we pick and play a new game and then discuss it from a literary, philosophical, and game design perspective. Its kind of like a book club for video games. We try to dig as deep as we can on an individual game every episode so check it out!
In the grand Final-e of our Final Fantasy VII discussion Gino and Chris @zombiepie -REDACTED- close the book on FFVII. We discuss the end of the game's story from the underwater Mako reactor to the game's final cutscene. We also dive deep into a bunch of the game's side quests including the chocobo racing minigame, the Ancient Forest, and the Battle Square. We also cover the utter destruction of the game's combat system that is Knights of the Round, Quad Magic, and Mime. Near the end of the show ZP has some special shout-outs for some of the minigame design team members. We finish up by arduously determining which of the two FF game's we've played is the best FF game ever and which is the worst. Who wins: FFVII or FFVIII? Yuffie or Selphie? Buster swords or gunblades?
