RRPG Two-Cents: Hideki Kamiya’s Dream Will Never Come

Kyle R. Smith

Sad as it may seem, but it is the stone cold truth if Capcom continues in not giving a damn about their past employees. I want a remake of Viewtiful Joe and/or Devil May Cry from Hideki Kamiya as much as the next guy. However, as long as Capcom continues this path with being the laughing stock of the industry, that will never happen. My two-cents on that after the break! Oh, and stay tuned for after the two-cents video as I have an announcement in relation to The Game…

RRPG Two-Cents: Is Super Mario Odyssey Overrated?

Kyle R. Smith

This game has been getting crazy, and raving reviews since its release! Yet, there are those who consider the game to be largely overrated. The game I am speaking of is Super Mario Odyssey, then one can obvious see that it is from the title. Today, I am to solve the debate question of is Super Mario Odyssey overrated, or do players actually get what they wanted? That “wanted” I am referring to is a true successor to Super Mario 64; at least that is what I have been told…

RRPG’s Final Fantasy Retrospective – Episode 8 Final Fantasy XI

Kyle R. Smith

Welcome back to RRPG’s Final Fantasy Retrospective! For this time around in Episode 8, Hironobu Sakaguchi and Square Enix decided to stray away from doing another traditional installment. They wanted to experiment in a new direction for Final Fantasy’s eleventh, mainline entry; being derived as an evolution of MUDs that became popular in older computers during the 70s and 80s, that genre would evolve itself into Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games which Richard Garriott’s own Ultima Online started the movement. After Sony Online Entertainment’s own EverQuest came out, and revolutionized…

Kyle R. Smith

Welcome back to RRPG’s Final Fantasy Retrospective! Episode 7 takes a dive into the PlayStation 2 by looking at the next entry where it was the first to have a sequel in Final Fantasy X, and X-2. Final Fantasy X ended up as the next game from Yoshinori Kitase, and his team who previously worked on Final Fantasy VII & VIII; it is still remembered as one of the biggest and most ambitious games ever made at the beginning of the sixth generation of gaming. Most games in the series…

Fire Emblem Warriors: Nintendo Switch – Special Edition Unboxing (RRPG Reviews)

Kyle R. Smith

Fire Emblem Warriors has finally arrived on the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo 3DS! Since the Fire Emblem series has been critically acclaimed for its depth and challenge within the Tactical RPG genre. Nintendo gave both Intelligent Systems and Koei Tecmo the honor to make a new Fire Emblem game done in the style of the latter’s own Musou games. Since both games came out on the same day, a Special Edition was sure to be inevitable as it most certainly was. I picked up the Special Edition of the…

RRPG’s Final Fantasy Retrospective – Episode 6 Final Fantasy VIII & IX

Kyle R. Smith

Welcome back to RRPG’s Final Fantasy Retrospective! Episode 6 explores two other entries in the PlayStation’s library, Final Fantasy VIII and IX. Now, Final Fantasy VIII was the next game to be envisioned by the team behind Final Fantasy VII, as it went for a game with a more brighter atmosphere that had dark overtones in its overall delivery. While being considered one of the most polarizing entries in the original Playstation’s library like Final Fantasy II on the Famicom, the eighth installment had its own merits; it becomes just…

RRPG’s Two-Cents: Nintendo Switch Has a Brighter Future!

Kyle R. Smith

From what was shown in the recent Nintendo Direct, I am a strong believer in that notion seeing as how both Doom from last year and Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus are on their way for the platform. Those titles and a game like L.A. Noire from Rockstar Games just makes me giddy, and very excited that Nintendo’s troubles with getting third-parties on board seems like a closed journey. However, things can change if they do not play their cards right, or that people who have a Nintendo Switch do…

Kyle R. Smith

The time for another classic Metroid game is upon us, and once more Metroid: Samus Returns leads the way for the first popular lady in video games as she revisits Planet SR388! It has literally been seven years since we have heard anything in relation to the Metroid series, as Nintendo has been extremely silent with the whereabouts of their most mature creation. However, it is good to know that Samus Aran is not dead, as she is back with this game, and the upcoming Metroid Prime 4, in the…

Kyle R. Smith

Hero Club is proud to present the Final Fantasy Retrospective hosted by me, RRPG; a series I began nearly two years ago on my personal YouTube Channel.

It would be known to the public as Final Fantasy VII. After covering the main game, we will dive straight into Square…
