RPG Backtrack 246 – Making a Fus Ro Dah

It’s been ten full years of dragons and memes from the Elder Scrolls universe, and for this week’s RPG Backtrack, Sam and Pascal hop on to reminisce about Skyrim. Maybe this episode will still be relevant in another decade when Skyrim gets released on the PS7 and Xbox Holodeck.

RPG Backtrack 236 – Action Jensen

RPG Backtrack 233: 35 Goo-d Years

RPG Backtrack 231: Hug the Goat!

Our retro episode of RPG Backtrack briefly mentioned the feel-good RPG, Undertale. We felt the game deserved its own episode, since we also have a chance to bring up its spiritual sequel, Deltarune.
