Episode 111: The part where the party splits up and goes separate ways—I actually kind of love it!!
The Takitsubo members record their segments separately and discuss the memories of intentionally playing multiplayer-focused games all by themselves. The theme explores the indescribable bittersweet feeling of playing games designed for multiple players in total solitude, and the unique discoveries found within that experience.
Memories of playing alone for some reason.
In this episode, we look back at multiplayer classics like Goemon: Mononoke Sugoroku. Why did we end up playing these titles alone when they were meant to be enjoyed with others? We share the sad circumstances of the time and those days spent silently building decks against CPU opponents. The discussion reveals the depth of strategy discovered only when playing solo, such as the importance of stat adjustments that are usually tailored for multiplayer.
Why we chose to play alone is revealed in the episode.
In the following part, we cover titles like Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and Resident Evil Outbreak. These games had high barriers to entry for multiplayer, and we share episodes of having no choice but to play them alone given the environment of that era. Please listen to the full episode to find out the specific reasons why we dared to take on these challenges solo.
