Crystal Core Radio #190 – Diving into Final Fantasy XIV's Mobile Expansion & Game of The Year



Welcome to another engaging episode of the Chris Decor Radio Podcast. In this episode, hosts Brian, Elio, and Mark – also known as ‘Late to the Game’ – gather to discuss the latest and greatest in the gaming world. Without Chris due to some PC troubles, the trio dives into the week’s packed agenda.

First, the focus is on Final Fantasy XIV, as Yoshi P announces a mobile version of the popular game, stirring excitement and caution within the community. Elio shares insights into this development, pondering the implications for the gaming landscape, particularly in Western and Asian markets. The conversation spans the potential for revitalizing Final Fantasy XI, the impact of mobile gaming on traditional platforms, and the broader context of MMO evolution.

Shifting gears, the team tackles Game of the Year deliberations, addressing the controversy surrounding the inclusion of DLCs, particularly ‘Shadow of the Erdtree’ and its implications for future Game of the Year criteria. The discussion probes the merits of this year’s nominees, with passionate debates over potential winners such as ‘AstroBot’ and ‘BeLatro’.

With perspectives on gaming culture, industry trends, and personal anecdotes, this episode offers a comprehensive look at where the world of gaming is and where it might be heading. Join the conversation, whether you’re a die-hard Final Fantasy fan or an industry watcher curious about the future of the games you love.
