So, there's often talk about how influential Final Fantasy is on other games... Let's chat about things that seemed Final Fantasyesque you've seen ;O

This shot from my cell phone that won an award for Best Ever Picture in History is from Rogue Galaxy. If that's not a chocobo wannabe, I don't know what is. Of course, Final Fantasy stole theirs from Miyazaki, so whatever.



Blue Dragon may be spit out from Sakaguchi's mind, but having classes named things like White Mage and Black Mage is awfully plucked right from the FF franchise. They even slap a vowel or two on the ends of spells to tell you which ones are stronger versions of the old ones.



You can see Sphere Grid-like systems popping up since X's birth. Look around the Digital Devil Saga games n' such.
