Episode 64 - Final Fantasy VII

Nate, Sebastian, and David convene to discuss FINAL FANTASY VII,
a blockbuster RPG that took the gaming world by storm and
introduced America to spiky-haired, sword-wielding, amnesiac
protagonists. Come for the discussion of the game's cinematic
techniques and environmentalist themes, stay to hear the plot
point David refers to as "the JFK assassination of '90s
videogames." Nate has an awkward movie trailer voice, Sebastian
admires the game's ending, and David imagines Marlon Brando as
Sephiroth.
