Fight, Magic, Items: The History of Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, and the Rise of Japanese RPGs in the West is available now, and I spoke to the author about it and JRPGs.
Love this conversation! Can't wait for more of it.
Curious if either of you have listened to the They Create Worlds podcast. They've done a few deep dives into the history of JRPGs, focusing especially on Final Fantasy I and Dragon Quest.
Such a blast having the chance to chat with you about this, Marc! You know I'm a big fan of Retro XP, so I'm quite tickled to be here.
