What's your opinion on the first Witcher game?

I think Mike would enjoy The Legend of Heroes: Trials series and would love a retrospective in the future👍I understand a lot of timeless RPGs will come before it, but the praise I can give it, is that it replaces Final Fantasy as my favourite series of all time. That should tell you everything about the quality of this series and Nihon Falcom in general. I'm sure you're more aware of the Ys series. Such a special company.

I was curious after your last wish review which by the way was the best review of the book ive watched to date, what u thought of sword of destiny seen as ive never heard you mention it plus it itself is a bunch of short stories what you think of it and what seperates it from the last wish in your opinion Thanks for taking the time 👍

Legendary Masamune

With the recent Wonderful 101 Remastered Kickstarter being a success, do you see other big name companies using Kickstarter as a means to gauge whether a project is worth doing? Ex. Harada from Namco had said in a tweet that Xenosaga HD Triliogy had been considered but failed In poor marketable analysis.

Matthew Dunaway

With the release of your Witcher book review, do you think there's any other novels or series of books that would make for a good video game? Maybe the world in the book would be interesting to explore or the story would be great if you could interact with it some how.

When is it OK to do fantasy? I ask this because The Pirates of the Caribbean sequels (Dead Man's Chest and At World's End, specifically) drew mixed reactions from audiences not only due to their overly-complicated plots and character arcs, but also due to the shift from low fantasy--as per the first film, The Curse of the Black Pearl--to high fantasy. I personally didn't mind this shift all THAT much, and I would even go so far as to argue that it made the movies more fun and provided lots of potential for the writers to work with. However, I do agree with most audiences that the whole "we must free Calypso" subplot was uninteresting and took up far too much screen time (along with that stupid scene with the crabs). Do you think the negative reactions to the Calypso and Davy Jones' locker segments were due to audiences simply not wanting POTC to be a high fantasy story, or was it due to something else?

Hey guys! Glad you're back! What next Final Fantasy game, if any, should be remade in the vein of FF7 remake? Personally I think a full on remake of FF2 would be a sure fire win being that it is probably the worst handled and least loved. Even if it sucked or changed anything I doubt almost anyone would care.
