Havent got a clue. Maybe 20. But they need to be games, not spin offs or remakes.
If it goes over 20...something wrong happened. I want to see some finality in the FF series. (And no, not just a bunch of spin-offs, I mean actual games.)
Really, I could live with the 13 that are out already.

To paraphrase LegendaryFrog:
They'll be making games till the end of time
And you know that you will pay for these new games till doomsday
Hey I've liked em so far I'm in favor of forever. I think it's becoming cool to hate now though...They should change the name so everybody can like them again.
I'm under the impression they have a liscence with sony for up to fifteen.
Eternal Fantasy anyone??? It'll go on as long as video game systems exist.
The FF franchise is stronger than ever, Its the series that Square gets the most money from, they wont just blurt out and say that FF? will be the last. They'll need a reason, and the best reason is the drop in popularity, which is unlikely to happen. So I reckon the series will last along time. My guess is late twenties to mid thirties.
The FF series will end when everyone who worked or was associated with the original game is either dead, dying, or incapacitated, and unable to contribute in any way, shape, or form. This'll take the series to the 20s, but not much further, depending on the popularity of the series.
Or the second generation of FF makers will be able to take the mantle of their predecessors, do them proud, and create a string of games even greater than the originals, ushering in a golden era (well, even MORE golden) for RPGs in general. And it'll thusly establish FF as a never ending series until video games are no more.
Or not.
Very untrue, FFX got lots of gamers into FF, and most will play FFXII.Quote:

* fans or end series necrophiliacs - death is fearful and can spawn hundreds of gray hair if it becomes a reccuring, "desire"???
I pray to Odin every morning that the Final Fantasy series will reach at least 30.
Maybe if SE started a new series that was like FF, (obviously still had the Fantasy RPG feel) but with a different name. I predict they'll go upto XV, and then unleash the sequels inbetween.
I'm expexcting XIII to be the last as they're making so MANY SPIN OFFS FOR IT, IT'S EITHER GOING TO BE the last one or they think it will be the next VII which I don't like but I'm guessing a round number like 15 or 20. and what was that pick of FFCD XII what does that translate too?
What I was gonna say. :D :jokey:Quote:

Like my friend says, why's it called final fantasy if they're already on XIII so a name change would be decent.
Few years back I recall hearing a rumor that stated that XIII would be that last one. And with Hiranobu gone now, it wouldn't be suprising.
Sakaguchi left awhile ago, actually. Now its like the Tales series, with a different development team each game.
as long has they get the money they will be me more games lol why does everone hate spin offs ummmmm im fine with them
Well I think it's gonna end at 13 then they'll just do remakes and direct sequels, and spinoffs.
They'll keep going until the run out of ideas.
I think that after ff 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
they should stop:D
Ok, assuming they make an FF every two years, that makes it... crray the four... divide by two.... A very very long time!Quote:

Then again, if they can continue the series entering a 'new golden era' I won't complain about that either. :D
The series should end on the day I die. After that they serve no use to me.
It should end at Final Fantasy XXX!!!

FFXXVI
I had a vision
just kidding
The last one will be Final Fantasy XXX :jokey:
I don't really know. Probably for as long as there are fans to buy the games.
MMMCCCXXXIII !!!!!!!
or longer
Here's a rumor going around about the ps3 that it wont allow you to use any used games. So you can't borrow a game from a friend to see if you like it, or just rent it out. I guess if this happens and you buy a game you don't like, it's just dead.
Sony will die.
I fail to see how that could be even remotely plausible.Quote:

Note: i actually think blondes are smart but i just read a book of blonde jokes so i felt like saying it. i hav NOTHING against blondes.
They're gonna keep making it until they run out of money and Ideas.
i agree that as long as they sell well and continue to be good they should keep on coming. eventually there will be different people working on them but it could be for the best and i doubt it will be a bad thing if that happens. it depends. i think they should not only make new ones but it might be good to make remakes and sequels if they are good. because it would be pretty hard if in the future there is an FF fan who has FF XVIII or something and want to get FF1 and 2 and stuff but cant because there so old and rare.
I know the different games are independent from one another, but it would be nice to have the last one tie them up, show a connection or something. I think that would be uber-cool. :D
And I am all for remakes and sequels.
I'd say anywhere from XV to XXV at the most.
It wont last much longer. Im guessing around XVII or XVIII. Then it will either get repetitive or downright ridiculous, in terms of gameplay. They try to change the system with every FF, and eventually it will go too far and BAM, there goes that.
They will last forever.
hmm i'm with the opinion that the series will soon become stale and unoriginal with square-enix churing out so many different ff games and sequels that people will become disintersted in the whole franchise.
They will last until tehy can't get any more Roman numerals on teh box.
As long as theirs games & customers, they will exists.
Almost like forever... And it think it can.
They'll be adding more MMORPG to their collection.
Some People will continue to play them until they die.
And New Generation will arrive. (Why else is Mario still here?)
And even the compagny will change hands to someone else...
Don't be mad at Square-Enix!
It's not there fault their powered by Energizer
They just go on, and on, and on....
Final Fantasy MMDCCXLVIII (Ultimecia's Tale!)
I always imagined them going up to the day I die but I'm not sure that will be possible. I will continue to by them provided I can play them on whatever system I have but yea it with time it may go stale. Then when SE decide to throw in the towel they will make something new (ie....erm....KH5) or something. Then as consoles develope and advance they will make remakes of the games with impressive covers :D. When SE decide to stop making FF it should go out with a bang! (and I dnt mean somthing that will literally blow ur playstation or whatever it is to smithereens!) I hope it goes up to XX something but from at the moment I can only see it making its way to XVII.
Personally I think they should have something self destruct when you finish the last game. Mind you I'm a guy who likes seeing things blow up. Just final FMV then BOOM! end of series.Quote:
