Final Fantasy has been one of the biggest RPG series of all time, especially for those of us who grew up in the '90s. This article looks at the history of Final Fantasy, the "downfall" of Squaresoft, and where the series is headed....
Looking back at Final Fantasy 6 on its 30th anniversary provides a snapshot of one of gaming's most important franchises at a pivotal turning point.
Gary Green said: It’s interesting to revisit the roots of your favorite franchises to see first-hand what’s changed and what’s stuck around all these years, though perhaps ‘visit’ would be more accurate than ‘revisit’ since apparently, Europe wasn’t worthy of the original six Final Fantasy games the first time around. By the time we started getting ports of these iconic games, we’d already been through the PSOne JRPG golden age. So we’d already seen the best of what Final Fantasy had to offer, while these predecessors looked outdated, unrefined, and (dare I say it) ugly. We aren’t bitter about the delayed releases, honest…
I'd love to but square said fk you to the ps fanbase that wanted these physically. Meanwhile switch got a physical release.

I always go Yuna, Aerith, Rikku, Rinoa, and for some reason Vanilla, Ashe, Cindy, Lunafreya, Quistis
Yes. Will there be new Era? That'll depends on the success of FFXIV.
I think they're about to hit there stride again. Ive heard a lot of good things about FFXIV AND, FFXV looks to be the best in years. Then of course theres FFX/X-2 HD.
I personally still have lots of hope for the series. Probably because I rlly didnt feel the burn from FFXIII like some fans. However I did not like FFXII.
Nope, besides the haters who were never fans to start and a minuscule part of final fantasy, series is still strong. 13s sold well and praised by critics and lightning is the number 1 character in Japan right now hence the focus. Final fantasy 15 had a strong backing and 14 managed to ride from the ashes and bring back those fans too. Sorry haters you still lose.
Meh. When the FFXV third person shooter and sequels fail, Square will finally go bust and let some other studio which actually cares what fans think buy and continue the series, and make remakes.
considering in the interview at e3 i think there is much hope for the future of final fantasy, first look at how they handled ff14 a realm reborn, i think 15 is going to be amazing with the action styled battle system, to me it definately makes more sense having one button for attack and have the ability to chain them together, than having just one attach for attack, i hope they go back to old worlds from previous games and expand on that world, i really hope they go back to spira and make a game where you play as Braska, Jecht and Auron, im sure that would make a great game. i think they will learn a lesson from ff13, honestly i wish they had never leaked that first video of 13, it made it look amazing, the game was still good but not what we expected.
