The Carbuncle Chronicle Issue 24: The Final Days… Before Dawntrail, Anyway!

Hello Adventurers! Well, we are finally here! Kinda. Not quite. We are now just days, days before the latest Final Fantasy XIV expansion: Dawntrail! The servers are down, the patch is up for download, and Square Enix is already asking folks to not spoil stuff. So we’re not gonna! Because this is all pre-Dawntrail stuff. The latest Letter from the Producer LIVE, our muses, our crackpot theories, all you need to keep that Dawntrail hype alive for a couple more days! And then we’re in it! So go forth, listen, and enjoy.

Spoiler Levels: Baked Eggplant! Now, you would think that Baked Eggplant wouldn’t be all that spicy. You’d think. But this is a potent DPS-rich meal! So perhaps this isn’t an episode spoiler filled per se, but we would recommend that you listen to this episode after you are current playing right before Dawntrail. And then listen right before you start Dawntrail!

So after you have listened to this episode, some other things to help while away the time!

The Carbuncle Chronicle Issue 23: Ten Years of Playing Final Fantasy XIV, Part 1

Hello Adventurers! While last year was the 10 Year Anniversary of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, this year is our 10 Year Anniversary of playing Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn! So, we thought it would be nice to look back at those halcyon days of times long ago. Specifically, ten years ago. And to join us down this trip on memory lane, we are joined by the fellows Chille and Paul of Moogle Go Round Radio! MGR is a FFXIV podcast and stream where they, if you can believe it, talk about Final Fantasy XIV. They also just recently celebrated their own 8th Anniversary of existence! You can trust us when we say they were the perfect pair to chat with us about how TP used to be real and could hurt you.

Spoiler Levels: La Noscean Toast! This is not an especially spoiler-filled episode, unless you have never played Final Fantasy XIV at all ever. In which case, have you heard about the free trial? And then come back to us after you finish up with ARR. Otherwise: Enjoy this delicious episode that has been soaked mixture of buffalo milk and eggs, and then fried in creamy butter. A specialty at the Drowning Wench in Limsa Lominsa!

OSMnotes

Once again big thanks to Paul and Chille for chatting with us! And as you may have noticed, this is a Part 1! Because we had planned to talk about the expansions leading up to Dawntrail, but we only got as far as A Realm Reborn. Guess we’ll have to schedule a Part 2 at some point! But until then, how about some Time Cues:

00:00:00 – We Start the Carbuncle Chronicling
00:14:41 – Our Humble Beginnings
00:51:09 – A Realm Reborn
01:16:43 – FFXIV 2.0: Then and Now. What’s changed in 10 years?
01:30:21 – Outro

OSMcast! Show #192: The Great Anime Dragon Draft! @ MTAC Dueling Dragons

We just got back from MTAC Dueling Dragons in Nashville, Tennessee and there we decided to try something different while we were there: A live panel! Look, all of the other podcasts are doing it, so we decided to jump off a bridge too. But don’t worry, we jumped onto some dragons. Some, theoretically, anime dragons. One could even say we drafted these dragons. Into a dragon draft. Look, it’s all right there in the episode title, really.

Protip: This episode was recorded live from the panel at the con. The audio is decently listenable though! Kinda.

OSMnotes

Did you like the episode? If you did and were there, or liked the audio version… Let MTAC know! Here is a link to their survey for this year: https://forms.gle/47TwTCkCNZGJPyU86

Also, it probably would be a good idea to post some images of the various dragons from the panel! Also… One Piece? Yeah, let’s go ahead and drop those here:

The Manderville Minute Issue XXII: “Gentleman Detective Solves Case, Again!”

Hello Gentlepeople! We here at The Manderville Minute have been covering the amazing work of Manderville Family in all facets of Ul’dah life, and this time we have decided to tackle the most gentlemanly of gentlemen: Hildibrand Helidor Maximillian Manderville. He is a Manderville Man that can only do what a Manderville can, as he travels the realm as a self-titled “agent of enquiry, inspector extraordinaire” alongside his assistant, Nashu Mhakaracca. Now wait just a gosh darn moment… No, what do you mean this about an MMORPG called Final Fantasy XIV? No, this is an audio recording all about one of our great Thanalan heroes! Perish the thought that this could be about some mere game.

Spoiler Levels: Truffles à la Manderville! This is a sweet and fluffy episode. We do talk about all sorts of the events that you can find in the various Hildibrand Adventures in Final Fantasy XIV, up to and including the events and trial in Patch 6.55. While we don’t get into too much MSQ talk… If you want to go into Hildibrand completely unsullied, this is your warning.

Manderville Notes

Hope you all enjoyed the episode! Here’s a couple of useful links based off some of the things we talked about in this episode:
