Damn, I didn't even realize the podcast had been put up! I've been in Florida for the past few days and haven't had much time to get on the internet until now. Think I'll go give it a listen and see how bad my recorded voice sounds.

Yeah, part of that might be because I backdated the post date to give Shademp's Unused Text article it's time to shine.

Your voice sounds good. We'll have to get you back on at some point!

I feel like I just ran my mouth a lot when we started talking about XII... which I guess was the point of having me on, but I was silent for quite a bit and then we finally got to XII and the floodgate on my mouth just exploded like

Like I said, you sounded good. That's exactly why we wanted you on the show. I hope you will be able to join us for the FFXII Retrospective in the not too distant future.

 

[lithiumkatana17]

You can count on me mon capitaine!

Once again, I really enjoyed being on the podcast with all of you guys. It was a lot of fun. Can't wait for the retrospective.

"Let me get to that section here about the weapons..."

Oh god.

 

[Flare]

Somebody needs to remind me to listen to this at home tonight or tomorrow. I was gonna do it at work but my manager is here during lunch too so I can't.

 

[Carlie]

At 16:30 everything goes silent for a couple of seconds.

 

[vaderSW1]

At 16:30 everything goes silent for a couple of seconds.

Yeah, I noticed that too. I had some really bizarre issues with the audio for this episode. Predominately, the issues were on Ryu's audio track. I ended up having to cut some conversations out completely because of how screwy it was. It would show there was audio coming from Ryu in those spots but when you listened to it, it was just silence.

That must have happened on in this situation too except, I think it was you or Lith that was talking. I must have missed it.

 

[Carlie]

It was JT talking actually. I don't know maybe we should give something like Curse a try for the next recording with the way Mumble has been acting.

 

[Flare]

So I finally listened to this. No one reminded me.
I loooved the talk about XII's remaster, and the bit of stuff about XV. I'm in agreement with wanting the Remaster to have an option to switch between the Zodiac version and the original. Lith why haven't you played Tactics? They're set in Ivalice for God's sake. (I only played Tactic's Advance but that one is a lot of fun).
And totally random, Carlie I've only heard you speak a few times before now, but this is the first time I noticed your accent. I mean... how did I miss that.... Anyways it's lovely.

I personally enjoyed roughly the second half of the podcast more, and laughed quite a lot with the voice swaps going on, so thanks. Also I'm glad you all like Flare Bear; you can probably blame that on Lith

If you fly out to England to get Joe then take me with you

It was enjoyable listening in on the podcast. I'll be sure to catch the next episode. Awesome job Lith, you did great for your first appearance!

Don't you get snippy with me young lady!

Have they made Tactics for the PSP at all in the past? I'd play it if I could find a copy somewhere.

I love Carlie's accent. I find it extremely arousing exotic. Even though I have Puerto Rican relatives.

My voice impression while reading that comment at the end did not go the way I wanted it to. But I as soon as I started reading I knew I couldn't stop so I just went with the dumb voice.

Can't wait for moar opportunities to talk about XII with everyone. Hopefully Fangu can join in next time!

Well I've been told by people is not super noticeable.

Yes the update version of Tactics, The War of the Lions is on PSP, I have it.

I love Carlie's accent. I find it extremely arousing exotic.

The shenanigans in this episode

We actually have the FFVI retrospective recorded. I turned it in for editing on Wednesday if I recall correctly. It will be split into two episodes. I had hoped to post the first part by today but I don't think the editing process is done. When the FFVI retro is done then we will record the next episode. I'll touch base with our new editor and see if she needs some help.

 

[lithiumkatana17]

Awesome! Can't wait to listen to it!

Yeah it was pretty bad, initially, when you started reading my comment, I thought to myself... I don't sound like Arnie.... sure enough, you then soon after, proceed to do Arnie impersonations LOL!!

 

[Avalanche87]

Lith, good try ha ha! Leprechaun Arnie!!

How in the world do we get our fingers on the FFXII Judge busts? I saw them all but hooooooow do I get my fingers on em?!

My most expensive piece in my collection (provided it arrives) is the Aries Alter statue at $900USD (= just under $1200 AUD) + shipping.

Enjoy guys! Keep up the awesome shenannigans!!

 

[Fangu]

Guys, the stuff about FFXII's queues isn't a delay issue, it's a capacity issue. But great rant, Ryu

Edit: Also AAAWWW thanks for the shoutout

Lith you did a great job at spreading the Twelve Love! Also let's sit down and talk XII at some point

(Wow I'm so adult and late to everything JFC)
