It was actually meant to be, since Square was on the verge of bankruptcy and it was to be their last game. But it became so popular that it pulled them back from the brink.

Then a decade later they did Final Fantasy Spirits Within (the awful cgi movie in the late 90s), which actually bankrupted them - Sony had to inject a ton of money to Square so they don't fold.

世間では、「これが最後のプロジェクトという心づもりで作ったから“ファイナル”だ」という理由から名づけられたのだ、という説が広まっているが、坂口氏は「確かに当時は背水の陣だったけれど、Fで始まる単語ならなんでもよかった」と、その説を否定した。

Original title was Nocturne in the Moonlight.

DID YOU KNOW...?

>>4035045
you're stupid, dragoons and dragons are unrelated

>Super Mario Bros. 3
>there are only two brothers

>>4035238
But did you know that Nocturne in the Moonlight was originally a totally unrelated game called Doki Doki Panic? But they were afraid people would scratch off the P and make it say "Fuck Man" so they made one of the characters a transsexual, which is why they apparently skipped from III to VI.

>Pokemon Red Version and Pokemon Blue Version both have black-and-white graphics. Pokemon Black Version and Pokemon White Version are in full color.

Also, "red version" and "blue version" suggest that they're different minor variations of the game "Pokemon", which is true. But all the mainline Pokemon games before 6th gen are still designated as different versions of the same Pokemon game. Arguably it should have been either "Pokemon Silver" or "Pokemon 2: Silver Version".

What was up with the word Kid in video games for a while?

>Kid Icarus ( not actually kid icarus )
>Kid Nikki
>Kid Cool
>Cowboy Kid
>Alex Kid
>Kid Dracula ( not actually kid dracula )

No anon, you're stupid. A dragoon is someone that rides a mount but fights on foot. She has a mountable dragon but does not ride it outside of the ending, thus she does not do what a dragoon does; use mounts for mobility.
