Tonight Ashgar, Belghast, Dallian, Grace, Kodra, Thalen and Tam talk about their favorite games of 2015. This is the second part of a two part podcast.
Once again it is time for us to record our “Games of the Year” show, and this time around we did it slightly differently. Last year we tried to come up with some title that represented the podcast as a whole, but it ended up being pure madness to get us all to agree on something. This time we instead each picked three games to add to the list and now we are recording a show about all of those games. Of note… this is not necessarily show about games that were released in 2015, but instead a show about games that were important to us during the calendar year.
This is being divided into two parts to cover the gap as myself and several others will be attending Pax South. In this second part we talk about:
- Tales of Zestiria
- Witcher 3
- Destiny – The Taken King
- Diablo 3 Seasonal Play
- Infinity Updated Ruleset
- Fallout 4
- Ori and the Blind Forest
- Final Fantasy XIV: Heavensward
- Various Honorable Mentions

FYI, Tam, if you haven’t played any other games in the Tales series, you might enjoy them too. They’re all somewhat nontraditional JRPGs in various ways (although they also vary in quality).
In particular, I’d recommend Tales of Vesperia (Xbox 360) and Tales of the Abyss (PS2 and 3DS).
I really love the Tales series! I played Tales of Symphonia when I was very down on JRPGs in general and it revitalized my interest in the genre, just because it felt so different.
I played most of the way through Vesperia as well, but didn’t finish it for a variety of reasons (mostly work related at the time), though I haven’t played Tales of the Abyss. I’ll check it out!
