Two friends talk the lore of Final Fantasy XIV in a (hopefully) accessible way to old and new players! Matthew is nothing more than a passionate fan who loves the story and world of FFXIV and Beth is a brand new player. As Beth progresses through the game we will discuss every smidgeon of lore we can find and figure out. 'Just Sort of Casual' sums up our approach to the game we love!
We will also cover news, in game events and community projects, so give us a try as we try out podcasting for the first time!
