The 39th anniversary of Dragon Quest is coming up, so we have to talk about what the DQ Day dream is going to have in store for us. Some of it is what we really expect to be showcased, while others are dream games that we hope to see. Either now, or next year with the 40th anniversary of our favorite JRPG series.

We also have special new Side Quest episodes and RPG content available for paid patrons, so check that out!

With the release of Clair Obscur, the discussion has turned around to turn-based RPGs again. Like, what is one, and can they make money? Beej and Austin talk about how Pokemon is a turn-based RPG and the bestselling franchise ever, as well as what makes a good turn-based game and why people associate it with Final Fantasy over Dragon Quest. Even when Dragon is in a game's title. Sheesh.Find us on Bluesky at https://bsky.app/profile/dragonquest.fmMusic and Sound effects copyright Square Enix.

This week, it's all about the Switch 2 and Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remaster Or is it a Remake? We talk about that and so much more (as always). Did you get a Nintendo Switch 2 pre-ordered? Beej did! Austin did not. Sad trombone time. Let us know if you had any issues or got one yourself and what you think about the Oblivion Remaster, too.https://bsky.app/profile/dragonquest.fm

This week, it's a Patron Request episode! "If you could make your own DQ game, what would it be? In terms of job system or not and monsters that'd have to be included, but also other systems the series has used before like pep powers, becoming munchie, and stuff like that. would love to hear location and character ideas too"

We discuss what it's like to be in America and waiting on the Switch 2. Is it worth the price? Is it worth the wait? Would we rather have a Steamdeck? You'll hear all this and more in our look at what is going on with Nintendo.
