Submissions for Friend Code Episode 97
Special guests Ash Paulsen and Forestminish will join me on this week's episode to look back at some of our favorite memories from The Legend of Zelda series for the upcoming 35th Anniversary. While submitting questions, please consider at least twice now we've speculated about Breath of the Wild's sequel, so I will not be considering questions related to that topic. I also encourage you to share your own memories about The Legend of Zelda series.
L&R,

Last week I shared my thoughts on the current state of EZA following a series of meetings we had putting it all out on the table. This week several allies have responded with their thoughts on the best courses of action to take, and while we can’t adopt all of them immediately, it appears to have brought some new people into the conversation and ...

Final Fantasy XIV blasts off for the moon with Endwalker, and WBIE’s new patent all but guarantees a return trip to Monolith’s Mordor. What’s less certain is when we’ll get to play the Sands of Time Remake and when the creator of Terraria will get his Google account back.

Ian here with some sorta sad news and some fun news! I’m writing to let you know that we will be moving Fiasconauts off of a monthly rotation and onto a more occasional special event sort of thing. The show hasn't been getting enough views to justify keeping it on a regular schedule, but we do enjoy it and I’m sure we’ll still stumble into a Fiasco now and again.

With the 2020 Awards behind us it’s time to look ahead at 2021, even with one month already behind us. We have two big meetings this week to discuss the future of the company, like we do every year. After the rollercoaster that was 2020 this feels different, however, mainly because we were forced to make so many unexpected changes already in the last 9 months or so of last year. So I look forward to potentially re-evaluating every part of our business as we plan our 5th anniversary and our ...
