RPGFan's Retro Encounter

I love this world because Retro Encounter is in it.
On this week's episode of Retro Encounter we dive into the story, the zones, and the incredible music of Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Who didn't pull any rare blades in the second half? Who finally got Kos-Mos? Do the late game story beats convince everyone that this is an excellent game? Listen in to find out!

Time to listen to an episode or three.
On this week's Retro Encounter, we dive into the opening hours of the systems-heavy 2017 RPG Xenoblade Chronicles 2. We chat about giant titans, Blade and Drive relationships, and the million other things you need to pay attention to in this game. What rare Blades did we pull? Can we stand Rex? Did we even remember to talk about the amazing music? Listen in to find out!

Glory to Retro Encounter.
On this week's episode of Retro Encounter, we dive into RPGs that have a science fiction twist. Since science fiction tropes crop up in more games than we realized, how did we narrow down our picks? Does the host bring up one of his favorite games once again? Who is intimidated by Bethesda games? Listen in to find out!

More like revenge of the four (panelists).
This week on Retro Encounter we dive into the second half of Romancing SaGa 2. Topics include unfair quest structures, our favorite classes, and the absurdly challenging final boss. Did everyone finish? Do we have have any new SaGa fans on the panel? Did anyone pull their hair out? Listen in to find out!

A group of four panelists rise up and face a merciless RPG.
This week on Retro Encounter we do something we haven't done before: we discuss the SaGa series! Specifically, we dive into the opening hours of the recently remastered Romancing SaGa 2. Can we figure out the mechanics? Can we figure out where we're supposed to go? Is SaGa actually worth playing? Which panelist is insane enough to play the original? Listen in to find out!
