Occasionally fans talk about the idea of a sequel (or another sequel) to one of the FFs. So I'm asking you which FF would you like to NOT see a sequel to instead. I mean how dare SE try to play with our nostalgia? :colbert:

Would say Final Fantasy XIII but they're done that twice already.

FFIX. I don't feel there is anything more to explore in that story and I think a sequel would not do it any favours.
Can I choose all of them? I can't say that I've felt like any of the sequels have been a particularly good idea.
Sharky and I were actually talking about this the other day.
IX is my favorite, but I don't think they could do anything more with the story. It's just kind of... done. Plus there would be no Vivi and a IX without Vivi is not a IX.
I wish they had never done the FFVII or the FFXIII sequels. None of the FF games should have had a sequel. They're FINAL Fantasies, not Semi-Final Fantasies.
I don't think any of them should have a sequel. I like X-2 okay, but it was an unnecessary entry and I think sequels of individual Final Fantasy games defeats the purpose of the brand.
I don't want any of the games to have sequels... but I still like the thought of having prequels for a few of the games.
Any of them. I want new stories, new worlds, new systems.
Actually, I am fine with reusing worlds if they are used for entirely new, independent stories. I.E. Ivalice.
>>> FF13..:luca:
I don't think there should have ever been a Final Fantasy II. It was supposed to be Squaresoft's Final Fantasy, it wasn't envisioned as a franchise. Once they released Final Fantasy II, all bets were off. They already sold their souls. So STFU and eat your cake.Quote:

I do like the spin-offs though. I highly enjoy games like theatrhythm and dissidia. I wouldn't mind more games like these where you can go back and revisit your favorite characters and settings without messing with the canon of the series.
Games I would like: A simulator where you can create and pilot your own Garden, not to mention the Blitzball 2K14 everyone likes to talk about.
But I liked Crisis Core, XIII-2, etc. I'm not against a prequel/sequel idea, I just can't think of any where i'm actively wanting it. Although I've always enjoyed the idea of an X prequel where you go through Braska, Jecht & Auron's journey.
No sequels. Put time and effort into a new story.
No sequel to FFVI. It wouldn't work.
Coming here to say this, though IX is also another strong choice.Quote:

Yeah, these two tales are very tightly wrapped up.Quote:

Dead, and magic no longer exists.Quote:

The prequel could involve Terra's father Maduin before the events of FFVI.Quote:

See, I don't see that being good. The problem is that not all good stories are readily expressible in game format. (Let alone JRPG format). When you try to shoehorn game mechanics around a story that isn't designed to accommodate them you end up compromising your ability to create a fun game, and you end up having to significantly alter the content and delivery of the story.
I would like to know in more details what occurred during Final Fantasy IX's ending though.
Like
Zidane goes after Kuja, Kuja redeems but dies, but then there's a big bang and
????????
Vivi clones himself and then writes a letter to everybody saying his goodbyes
???????
Zidane comes back
The end.
How did Zidane survive though ?
MAGIC
Wolf probably meant to imply that the sequel WOULD be a game, but it isn't stated outright, so for the sake of argument, let's assume these sequels don't have to be games. Like the Final Fantasy VII Compilation.Quote:

I figured he went into Trance mode.Quote:

Trance's are triggered by high emotions and Zidane's emotions would of been through the roof, and Zidane has the most powerful trances in the story.
