Aetheryte Radio 2.0- What do you want out of an FFXIV podcast?

[Fusionx]

With every day that passes, Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn gets closer to being unleashed on the world.

For the past several months we've been busy behind the scenes working to bring you a show that's even better than before. We aren't quite ready yet to reveal this new show to the world, we can tell you a little bit about what we're currently planning.

Ever since the days of our Final Fantasy XI podcast, Pet Food Alpha, our show structure has been more or less the same and while we won't be changing it up drastically as it's a structure that has worked well for us, we will be looking to incorporate new ideas into it.

The biggest plan we have right now is to insert what we're calling a rotating segment into the show.
Each episode we'll follow our normal structure, we'll read some news, read your latest in game accomplishments, read questions and feedback from e-mail, twitter etc. But in the middle of that we want to have a variety of things that we can plug into the show, something that's not the same each week. Current plans for rotating segments include Strategy/Tips, Lore, Topic Discussions, Special Guests, and Player Fails.

The idea is that while the structure of the show is the same, we try to include some relevant information into the show as well that players will find either informative, interesting, or entertaining.

There are a lot of possibilities for things that we could include into our rotating segments and we'd love to hear your thoughts on them in addition to anything else you want to see from a podcast dedicated to Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Perhaps you want to see more video content (what would you like to see done with this that couldn't be done with audio for example), or perhaps you'd like some live Q and As with the hosts?
We're making this show for you! We want to hear any idea no matter how crazy you may think it sounds!


Thanks for listening!

You said Topic discussions would be in the rotation as well, but i think i would enjoy a topic discussion every episode.

The idea of the rotation was so that we could always make one work. For example, maybe one week doesn't have much news and so we can't come up with anything to have a discussion on- then we could use one of the other segments instead.

There's also a chance we could include multiple rotating segments in an episode if there's a week that just has THAT much stuff going on, but it's always better to plan on there being weeks where there's just nothing going on.

Podcasts would get bloated if that were the case and subject matter to discuss would wear thinner over time. I ran a Super Smash Bros podcast for over a year with some friends and podcasts became really long messes of off-topicness and other such messes. It's better to have a shorter podcast on a rotation of topics.

The idea with the rotating segments sounds great! looking especially forward to lore and strategy/tips segments
hmm with our shiny new world in ARR i think a sightseeing/area spotlight segment would be interesting

cant wait for ARRs launch and the new Aetherite Radio that comes with it ^~^
I havent missed an episode of you guys since the olden days of FFXI and i dont plan to start now

P.S.:Make Steak sing again for ARR^^
