Doesn't that sound conflicting? Sounds more like he wanted to go out with a bang.
Well, that's because it's not entirely true. Final Fantasy was named that because it was their "last chance". If that game didn't turn things around, they would be out of business. As we all know now, it did turn things around.

Anyway, FF13 left itself wide open for a sequel, and it was probably decided that there would be one before FF13 was even released.
