Thread: Ending

    The ending was ridiculous. I didn't like that Ramza "died", but didn't really die. That bugged me.

    But did Ovelia actually die? I know Delita didn't. He limped away. But did Ovelia?

    Having Ramza escape was the only concession the game made to a traditional happy ending for an RPG. The whole point of the game was that revisionist history uncovers unsung heros who do a lot of the work that the famous people get the credit for.

    Imagine the ending had Ramza really died. All that work and his friend Delita gets all the glory. Ramza gets no recognition until perhaps centuries after his death. It would have been powerful but also very depressing.

    Given that the game mentions Delita's long prosperous reign as king, with no mention of Ovelia, I think she died.

    It stands for Role Playing Game. It means you take on the persona of another person when you are playing the game. Like Ramza would be your alter ego in FFT.

    RPG's can apply to non-video games as well; Dungeons and Dragons is perhaps the best known example.

    When it says,

    Years later;
    Orlan Durai collected his experiences over a period of 5 years into a single syllabus.

    Does it mean in 5 years he collected all of Ramzas experiences or he collected all of his experiences in the last 5 years of Ramzas life?

    It's ambiguous phrasing, but I interpret it to mean that it took Olan 5 years to compile his syllabus.

    It says "into a single syllabus" but a syllabus is like a short summary right?,well how did Alazam (historian) get all this information? Also does anyone have any theories about how olan got all this info?

    Presumably he had more information in five years of reasearch than he could fit into his papers. I would imagine that being Orlandu's son-in-law would give him access to major records of Goltana's domain, in addition to what he witnessed first-hand.

    It would have been more problematic for him to gather information about Larg's realm, since Larg and Goltana were rivals and Olan was theoretically a vassal of Goltana.

    YO! One could also speculate that had Orlandu survived, which is highly probable, He would keep in cantact with Olan and could bring to light whole of the story seeing as how it is likely that during their time spent together Ramza would have disclosed his information to Orlandu.
