"Let’s face it: we’ve all been there.
We’re all drawn so deeply into games that we form all sorts of different connections with the characters we watch and control. That attraction can be so deep that, in our young minds we wished these fantastic characters were real so we could get to know them better.

The staff and management couldn’t come to an agreement and the team moved on. Part of the team went to creat ff11 and the rest to Monolith software. Ideas for this game were implemented in some form to mobile games-later on. Which make sense as early 2000s mobile phones were not as powerful.
