To welcome in the new year, Off the Deep End has once again roped in Cassidy from the Bad Game Hall of Fame to cover one of the great kusoge JRPGs! Our crew asks important questions such as "why does this game look the way it does?" and "why does this game sound the way it does?" The answers may surprise and shock you, but not nearly as much as where it ends up getting ranked!
