Axe of the Blood God is our weekly RPG podcast hosted by Kat Bailey and Nadia Oxford. You can find the previous episodes here.
In this week's episode of Axe of the Blood God (download link here), Nadia and I discuss Final Fantasy XII, Fire Emblem Echoes, and more!
I was a bit more down on Fire Emblem Echoes than a lot of other sites, mostly because I was unhappy with the unbalanced difficulty. But I love it in other ways, which made the review kind of hard to write. The same could be said for Final Fantasy XII, which has long been one of the more controversial entries in a controversial series. Lots to say on both of these, so tune on in!
