Lightning Strikes ThriceWizardry IV - The Maze of WanderingEditor's note: This podcast was recorded during November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.
This week gives us what your humble editrix describes as "the worst dungeon crawler map in the history of the genre". You wanna hear what that's like, right? 'Course you do.

Lightning Strikes ThriceWizardry IV - Creatures of Light & DarknessEditor's note: This podcast was recorded during November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.
This week is... actually probably the nicest episode we're going to have for a while. Learn about pleasant nerds from yesteryear and have a laugh at some of the funniest "why did I do that" item tricks the game throws at you.
Don't worry, soon it'll get vicious again. I promise.

Alright, here we go, it's what the sickos have been waiting for, the second nastiest floor in the game. See how different ports make this a different challenge for everyone, and watch procrastination bite people in the whole ass.

The first stage that gets some "okay, this concept rocks" out of everyone, and also inspires more rants than any other so far. You know you're in for a good time when the hosts begin to turn on each other, and we haven't even made it halfway through the game.

Lightning Strikes ThriceWizardry IV - Death of a Thousand CutsEditor's note: This podcast was recorded in November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.
You have hired a contractor to create ten different mad traps for the immortal wizard in your basement. A few suggested mazes. Some went to real Halaster Blackcloak territory with their suggestions for "paths through Hell" and "time upon space" and the ilk. In the end, one of the pitches you heard sounded incredibly plausible and pretty final: "What about land mines? Just all the land mines in the world. A big, unmarked field of 99% land mines."

Lightning Strikes ThriceWizardry IV - The CatacombsEditor's note: This podcast was recorded in November 2024. Don't @ us about how weird some of it reads in hindsight.
Did you know that they buried Werdna about half a mile under a portal to Hell? And somehow this is also where they bury a lot of the honored dead of the castle town? You can't think about this dungeon too long, it'll drive you mad in a "how does any of this come together" sense. Roe Adams III was a king for this, though.

Tales from the Backlog135: Lost Odyssey (with Ryan Batie - Lightning Strikes Thrice)Lost Odyssey, by Mistwalker and feelplus, is almost legendary at this point. A darker, sadder RPG by Final Fantasy series creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, with a moody yet eclectic soundtrack by Final Fantasy series composer Nobuo Uematsu and short stories interspersed throughout by famed Japanese author Kiyoshi Shigematsu, there is pedigree and talent behind the game, and perhaps most crucially- you probably can't buy it, unless you own an Xbox console. Situations like this tend to lead to inflation of a game's merits, not to mention all of the "this is the real Final Fantasy 13" memes out there. So does...

2023-05-2333 minTales from the BacklogDo Video Games Need to Be Fun? (with Brad Gallaway - So...Videogames!, and Ryan Batie - Lightning Strikes Thrice)There's an extremely common refrain out there in Gaming Discourse Land that goes a little something like this- "if you're not having fun with a game, why are you playing it?" and it got me thinking....is that all games should offer? Do things like frustration, getting lost, tedium or even boredom have a place in video games? So I enlisted some all-star guests to discuss it- Brad Gallaway (gamecritics.com, So...Videogames! podcast) and Ryan Batie (Lightning Strikes Thrice podcast). Check out their work via those links!

I respect the attempt to make a challenging game that is unlocked by piecing together opaque mechanics, but I found it to be too difficult at a base level. And I respect the hell out of the art design and music, even though....nevermind, the art...
