Axe of the Blood God is our weekly RPG podcast hosted by Kat Bailey and Nadia Oxford. You can find the previous episodes here.

Tokyo RPG Factory's heart was in the right place when they made I Am Setsuna, but it's all too obvious that they had to make it with zero time and with zero budget. Nadia broke down some of where I Am Setsuna went wrong in a recent article, and what Lost Spheal can learn from its mistakes. We also discuss Elder Scrolls Online, which has made something of a resurgence of late. Join us for a rare dive into the world of MMORPGs!
