Side Quests 045: Final Fantasy VII 028

from Alexander Schmid Podcast Hosted by Alexander Schmid

In this episode of Side Quests, Mr. Wes Schantz and I have our penultimate discussion on Sqauresoft's epic role-playing game from 1997: Final Fantasy VII. We consider the following topics in detail: (1) the motifs of endings and beginnings, in the game itself and in our project covering it; (2) motivations and changing motivations in approaching a long-term game and the personal character growth (bildungsroman) required not only of your characters, but in you as you play through the game; (3) we consider nostalgia, missed opportunities, and the value of goal-oriented action in games and how that translates to a meaningful life.
