JRPG news, demos, and pre-TGS speculation! In today’s episode I'm breaking down everything you missed this week: Dragon Quest VII Reimagined changes (the diorama look, the scanned character dolls, Moonlighting dual vocations, visible encounters, auto-battle/speed), launch-day DLC plans and editions, and why the Zenithian trilogy rumor isn’t a confirmation yet. We celebrate the Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter Remake launch and talk about what Falcom might do next with Second Chapter. We also hit new announcements like Kyouran Makaism from NIS, Sting’s BAROQUE-YA collection, and the latest TGS 2025 hopes and expectations: FFVII Remake Part 3, Dragon Quest XII, Persona 6, Kingdom Hearts IV and more. Plus: reception checks on Grey Heritage: Noble Duty, HYKE: Northern Light(s), and hands-on impressions buzzing around the Alabaster Dawn demo. Finally, two huge wins for preservation: the Poporogue English patch and Illusion City fully translated on MSX.
