LBR Update (02-02-12)

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

Hi LBR fans! How’s everything going? Long time no talk, I know. I wanted to take a moment and explain what’s been happening here at Limit Break Radio. I know we haven’t released anything and other then brief vague statements on our Facebook and Twitter pages. I apologize to our fans who still want a LBR to listen to. Here’s where we’re at: none of the hosts of LBR still play Final Fantasy XI. Some of it has to do with lack of content on XI’s part, some of it has to do with the financial realities that the hosts are facing. But the fact still stands that most of the LBR hosts have no actual connection to XI. I’m hesitant to do a show with hosts that don’t play the game because those never work out well. I think things would start to get really negative on our part, and that’s not really what LBR is all about.

I feel, in LBR’s time, that we covered a great deal of content regarding Final Fantasy XI. I’m really proud of what we accomplished in the 5 years we have done this podcast. I’m just sorry we couldn’t keep it going longer. But I’ll be real honest. I’m burnt out on MMOs. So, I need a break; and I need to focus on what is really important: finding a new job. I’ve been 2 years out of work and I really need to find a job. Radio is a tough industry and it’s never been harder to catch a break in this industry then right now. I want to thank you all for your support of LBR over the years. It’s really been because of you that the show lasted as long as it did. Thank you so so much!

But, I will not say this is the end of LBR. Not yet. I feel like Square-Enix might have some tricks up their sleeves to bring players back to XI. I might get a job (and thus disposable income) tomorrow and start playing again. The future is very unpredictable and I’m no fortune teller. I’m kind of bummed, I even made a new intro for the show and never got to use it. Maybe we will one day.

So, I’m officially putting LBR on ‘hiatus’ status until further notice. Once again, thank you fans for your support over the years.

Limit Break Radio 64 – Wings of Some Chick, or Something

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

Limit Break Radio finally gets around to tackling the large topic of Wings of the Goddess missions. Joining Aniero, Juxtaposition and Tamtu for this episode are Theodus, Sharde and Toboe from the Phoenix server. We tread the topic lightly focusing on fights and quests and trying to keep the episode as spoiler free as we possibly can. This episode makes LBR history as the first show Aniero has ever had to leave early for (Aniero fans don’t worry, here’s there for, like, 80% of this episode). I’m sure Tamtu and Juxtaposition end the show in a highly professional manner.

Why No News? ‘Cause It’s All At XIEscape!

Saturday, June 18th, 2011

I have received quite a few emails over the past week asking why we haven’t been posting PlayOnline updates to Limit Break Radio. As you may have noticed from my previous mention, the listen page is having problems sorting shows correctly, so we felt it would be best since things are moving toward Gamer Escape in the future that we only post information relevant to Limit Break Radio, so things like episodes and announcements don’t get buried by POL announcements.

So, you still want your FFXI news, huh? Well, good news because FFXIEscape posts not just POL announcements, but also has Dev Tracker, and Player Achievements posts you love from Pet Food Alpha as well as editorial and Op-ed posts. Oh, and how could I forget The Wiki?! FFXI’s most trusted wiki database is now available, readable and easier to edit on FFXIEscape. Make sure to update your bookmarks!

So make sure you sign up on the Gamer Escape forums, follow @FFXIEscape on Twitter, and listen to Gamer Escape Radio our live 24 hour streaming Shoutcast radio stream.

Limit Break Radio – Episode 60: The Great Final Fantasy Debate part 2

Sunday, March 20th, 2011

In my time in Vana’diel I have noticed that one conversation is universal amongst all Linkshells regardless of level, activity or experience. Yes, one topic will constantly serve to simultaneously unite and divide all Final Fantasy fans. The topic of which I speak is, of course, which Final Fantasy games are the best?

So, one Saturday we loaded up the uStream channel and decided to hash it out! The episode ended up being very long so we decided to chop it in half. An audio file with both episodes is available posted below in the Show Notes portion of this post. This episode picks up at Fianl Fantasy VII and takes us all the way through Final Fantasy XIII. So join Aniero, Juxtaposition, Tamtu, Viki and Eskalia for part 2 of the Great Final Fantasy Debate!
