Dragon Quest FM

Austin was able to play Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined early and he's here with a review for us! We talk about what's good, what could be better, and what was surprising about playing through his third version of DQ7.
Beej's copy of the game should arrive soon, so we'll dive deeper as he gets to play it and see more of the game.

The DQ7 Reimagined Demo has been out for a few weeks, and we haven't had a chance to cover it because of sickness! So now we can, and boy do we have opinions. From Switch, Switch 2, to PS5, let's talk about which of the Dragon Quest VII Reimagined demo versions is best, and what we think about the game so far.

Well, that's a wrap. Season 7 is over, and we're moving into Season 8 nextg week. But as for now, let's talk about video games. We did our first Best of 2025 episode a couple of weeks ago and never even got to video games. And we're a video games podcast! So here we are fixing that, talking about all the games that we think are worth talking about this year (unless we forgot something we played, which is also entirely possible). Austin gave some really good indie suggestions at the end, too, that you should totally pick up.Check out our YouTube channel at https://youtube.com/@dqfm, and our Patreon at https://patreon.com/dragonquestfm

This week, we're going over the second book in the Mark of Erdrick manga series, published by Square Enix Books & Manga. We're really thankful to them for sending over advance copies for us to read and talk about. We do a mostly spoiler-free discussion of book 2, and it's a fantastic book to read. It's out today, and you can purchase it at the link below! Don't miss our other episode where we discuss the production of the series with editor Jennifer Sherman, just a few episodes back. Thanks a bunch, and we hope you love the book as much as we do!

This was supposed to be a catch-all episode of the podcast, but it turns out that we're not very short-winded. We talk about books, movies, and TV in this part of our Best Of 2025 shows.
