    Square Enix considered ending FF11 in 2024, but player interest was high enough to keep it alive even after 20+ years

    I started playing 11 only a few years ago, and I still haven't gotten too far in the story as it can be a lot to figure out at first. Glad they decided to keep it going so folks like me can experience it. It is a mainline title after all, it should be archived in some way. It's definitely the...

    Tetsuya Nomura contributed more to FFVII than Hironobu Sakaguchi but people are not ready to admit it.

    I'm curious about the context of that Sakaguchi quote. The final game makes it clear that Aerith's death is meant to be felt deeply and to be impactful. We don't know for sure at what point in the dev process they were at when that conversation happened. And that's the other thing about this...

    Tetsuya Nomura contributed more to FFVII than Hironobu Sakaguchi but people are not ready to admit it.

    Sakaguchi was still the one who guided the story to be tethered to the central theme of life, death and loss, according to his own words in interviews. In all of his famous interviews about the game, he openly talks about what he wanted Aerith's loss to convey to the player, how he wanted the...

    What is your personal opinion about the current state of the franchise and why?

    I will say, yea I'd like if they took the gameplay of the Remake project as the blueprint going forward for original mainline games, with FFXVI being a shining example of how they could make great original stories.

    What is your personal opinion about the current state of the franchise and why?

    It's complicated for me. I thought FFXVI was great. The story was terrific, everything you want in a good Final Fantasy game. I thought the side-quests were fun too. Gameplay was good fun, but I sorely missed the more fleshed out RPG elements and sense of exploration in the world. FFXV, with...

    This is absolutely ridiculous

    What are some underrated moments in FF7?

    There are too many for me, far too many! I quite like the optional scene at the Honeybee Inn where Cloud finds a ghost of himself. I know most people think of the silly bath tub scene with Mukki, but I prefer Cloud's ghost scene. It's more eerie and unsettling, and retrospectively it's almost...

    FFVII Character Details, Easter Eggs, and General What-the-fuckery

    Oh! I just remembered this video I stumbled upon awhile back when I was just getting into FFVII about Cid's Rocket. This is a very obscure detail that I'm still not sure many people pick up on lol

    Hello, everyone!

    I can't exactly remember the first party I used to beat Sephiroth... I know it was Cloud and Vincent but I don't remember the third character. Either Tifa, Cid, Nanaki or Yuffie I think. I'm curious about what you get defensive about, and I'm also curious, as someone who didn't grow up with...

    Sakaguchi praised Remake and Rebirth in a recent interview and the cope from some people can’t stop.

    I mean, the Remake trilogy did create a divide in the fanbase either way. Doesn't mean you should love or hate the Remake project but it is what it is. And yea the level of toxicity of fans is pretty bad. I just wish we could get to a point where we could have a sensible discussion about the...

    What if Final Fantasy Games had Unique Titles

    Also, one of the titles I thought of before for FF1 was "Swan Song" as I think that was one of the originally proposed titles for it. That might've been proven wrong though?

    What if Final Fantasy Games had Unique Titles

    Oooh right! Eikon! That was a word I forgot about when thinking about XVI. imo that would go better in the title than "Dominant". "Eikon of Sin" is a pretty great title honestly. "Legacy of the Eikon" could be another good title

    What if Final Fantasy Games had Unique Titles

    "The Last of the Ancients" could also potentially work for FFVII

    If the next FF game lets the player drive while listening to music, which kind of songs do you like best?

    Probably Xanadu by Rush, and some Freezepop. As well as some futurepop too.

    What if Final Fantasy Games had Unique Titles

    I suppose "Meteorfall" could also work, though that might spoil the player for what the Meteor on the cover represented.

    What if Final Fantasy Games had Unique Titles

    The only guiding principle for FFVII I came up with was anything with "Crisis" in the title based on what the spinoffs setup.

    What if Final Fantasy Games had Unique Titles

    Oh, I know VII is one of the hardest to come up with. This whole idea started with that in fact. I was thinking about how the whole series is just different games with common details anyway, so I was trying to think of an alternate title to FFVII if it was a standalone. It's so tricky to think...
