The Thirsty Mage is our virtual pub where friends meet to have a drink and discuss their favourite RPGs. Whether it’s about specific games or RPG related topics, the pub is always open for positive discussions.

David and Jordan discuss the action-RPG add on game - Eiyuden Chronicles: Rising, after a short breakdown of the Nintendo Indie World presentation.

The pub is joined by Alex from Backlog Battle to share our favourite adventures from the FromSoftware masterpiece: Elden Ring.

The pub gets together to talk about Chrono Cross, the Radical Dreamers remake to see if it still stands up or if it’s aged beyond its time.

On this week’s podcast, Paige welcomes back Maggie Jones Lutey to the pub to break down Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream.

The pub shares some games that they normally wouldn’t play but ended up really enjoying.

With the announcement from Sony that a PlayStation competitor to Xbox GamePass is on the way, the pub has a discussion about what games they’d like to play and whether the service is redundant.

Inspired by Stranger of Paradise, the pub shares some of the most bizarre RPGs they ever played.

The pub can’t stop talking (spoiler-free) about Elden Ring but do take a break to assess the enjoyment of Young Souls and Gran Turismo 7.

Hot on the heels of our January challenge, the pub has a discussion about Ring Fit Adventure and its effectiveness as both an RPG and as a form of exercise.

David and Jordan talk about a pair of indie games in Rise of Third Power and Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth and finish up with some Voice of Cards discussion.

Jordan and David talk about (spoiler-free) two of the hottest games right now: Elden Ring and Triangle Strategy.

The lads from the Talk Nintendo Podcast join us for our 150th episode celebration with a playthrough of the tough as nails classic: Super Castlevania IV.
