First, I want to thank everyone who listened to the first episode of PUP RPG Love! It’s been a huge success and we’ve received so many tweets, forum posts, and emails about the show and wanted to let you all know that we really appreciate them. Musim and I hoped that an RPG show would do well and I’m happy to see that it has. I’m already getting exited for the one next month, so stay tuned as the show gets better and better!
The hot topic around the first episode, not only with the emails/tweets before the show, but the discussion afterwards has been around “starter RPGs.” It sounds like many are understandably a bit confused and/or worried that they may pick the wrong RPG to start with. Musim and I came up with a few suggestions in the show itself (check the end of the second segment), but the surprise standout appears to be Chrono Trigger.
The community came up with the idea of everyone playing it together (which I’m always a fan of), so I put up a forum thread for RPG Lovers Play: Chrono Trigger. Whether it’s your first time playing or you’re starting to get the itch to play it again, you should join us! Musim and I may not always be able to play each month, but there will still be plenty of people playing whatever game is going on that month.
I’m related news, I finally finished Final Fantasy V! There was much gnashing of teeth and wailing, but I managed to barely scrape out a win. A post wrapping up that series will be coming in the next few days. And I promise I’m still playing Deadly Premonition! Now that I’ve kicked my obsession with side missions, I’ll burn through the rest of the game. Another post about that should be coming next week.
