    Dancing Chocobo Which FF would you like NOT to see a sequel to?

    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?

    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.

    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.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Looking at all the Final Fantasy games out there right now, I can't really think of a world where I'm going "I wish they could expand on this and make a new story".

    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.
