    Cue an image of the party fighting each other while a confused goblin watches.

    It&apos;s selfish to ask, but I&apos;d love to see this series continue for each game. Keep up the great work!

    &quot;And they only succeeded with Final Fantasy by doing the exact opposite of what was expected.&quot; This sums up why instalments of FF continue to be relevant and growing in new directions, always.

    FF2 is one of the most deserving games of a remake in the franchise. It has a lot of good ideas, the set up for a great story, and characters that have been proven interesting in spin offs.

    As a fan who believes 2 is better than 1 or 3, I love hearing the history of the game and how Japan originally appreciated the game at release. The game is absolutely mistreated by the fandom when the story is far and above better than 1. I know nostalgia in the fandom, East and West, make 1 the favorite, but 2 is a far better story featuring serious stakes and actually named deep characters. I just hope one day 2 can be respected for the groundwork it laid for the rest of the franchise

    honestly, as someone who hasn&apos;t played much of the nes games, II was the one i was most interested in grabbing when the pixel remasters hit consoles. it took a swerve, but sometimes you gotta respect the boldness of a swerve, and it&apos;s the game that cemented what final fantasy is as a series. it didn&apos;t hurt that i&apos;d been playing more saga games in the year prior, so i felt curious about where that lineage started.<br><br>anyway it&apos;s a good game and it deserves a better reputation than it&apos;s grown over the years.

    Final Fantasy 2 is my second favorite FF of all time, behind X. I don’t understand the hate a lot of people give this game. So much freedom, easy ways to break the game and make too easy. And a more fleshed story

    Final Fantasy 2 is one of the most underrated games in the franchise. Out of the NES releases, it is the only one that presented a decent story, it has some of the best music of the 8 bit era, and while its mechanics weren&apos;t great, at least it tried to do something different from what had been done before.

    You&apos;ve been talking me to sleep for a while now. I appreciate the hard work you put in to every episode. You don&apos;t waffle on but you&apos;re a good story teller.

    That original script that Kawazu initially created actually sounds very interesting! I would like Square-Enix realize it as a brand knew game. I&apos;m certain that there would be no technical limitations in today&apos;s consoles that would prevent the planned gaming mechanics go along with the story choices made by a player.
