If SE decided not to make anymore FF games how would everyone react?

Do you think SE will go a bit downhill or just replace it with something equally good and carry on?

IMO square-enix will probably lose a lot of cash and go downhill, seeing as it's their trademark game i think it will disappoint too many fans to recover and create something better.

You can't replace FF with another series of games and I bet SE will go downhill and not recover within 10 years or so. Too many fans will be crushed as an extra effect as well.

SE will still continue to earn a lot of money with their other games, but it will loose a lot of goodwill from fans of Final Fantasy.

However, realistically speaking, no company is crazy enough to throw away the thing that makes them profitable the most.

Last time I heard the FF13 series should be the last ff game they will make.But according to Enix they still will do remakes of old ff games.But I heard this from along time ago so I could be mistaken.But if they really do stop making ff games I will have a heart attack.

now that i think about it, it's about time SE put a stop to the FF games. They had a good run, 13 games and plenty of spin-offs. Maybe it's time SE went in a different direction?

If/When they do decide to call it a day i hope the last FF they make is a remake of VII, go out with a bang.

I can't imagine that. If Rockstar stops making GTA games, I'm okay with that because it's almost the same gameplay and just some extra add-ons anyway. But if SE stops making FF games, i'll go crazy. I don't think anyone would want that. It will all go downhill. No waiting for FF games anymore. It will all be history. I don't wanna see that day, haha.

But if they will end the Final Fantasy franchise, they need to have something like it in exchange. A new franchise. New elements and stuff but still stand alone games. Same formula. By same formula, I mean they need to do great with the story, gameplay, the music and everything FF attained. But new elements. No chocobos anymore, Moogles, and other things.

But personally, I don't care if it's like FF27 or something, haha. FF games are of good quality and everytime an FF game is rumored, everyone is all fired up about it. And when it releases, it always has high ratings.

I suppose they could try and build on a TWEWY series, that game's got high ratings, its rather popular. Maybe that could be the replacement for FF? I think if SE get a game selling in equal or higher numbers to FF they may take Final Fantasy off the market to make way for the new comer. It would be a sad day, but i think the series is coming to the end of its lifespan now and they need to focus on some new games.

It may be posible that SE decides to stop creating more FFs.

If you think about it, it's really hard to come up with something new after almost 20 years of innovation.

It would not be a smart move though, cause the FF series give them millions every year.

They were go under in at least 3 years. It's like if EA stopped making their sports games, it's not going to happen and if it did EA would also go under in at least 5 to 6 years.

I personal would love the fact if Square Enix stopped making Final Fantasy Games, they have already stuffed it with there spin-off's like X-2, Advent Children, Dirge of Cerberus Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Revenant Wings, the remakes of Final Fantasy I, II, III, IV, etc. In my opinion, Final Fantasy died when Squaresoft merged with "they who should not be named".

I was joking, things are different since the merger of Squaresoft and Enix, but I think there going through some growing pains. I'm sure things will start getting better eventually. I'm looking forward to The Last Remenant.

I think it might take another couple years. We are talking about 2 very influential game companies that created the 2 most popular RPG's ever trying to work together and keep up the quality of both.

You mean if Square-Enix and Nintendo worked together......that's already happened (in a way) and Nintendo ended losing Square-Enix to Sony.

I'd kill Square Enix myself if they remade Final Fantasy VII, VIII or IX. You can't beat the original games, even the original Final Fantasy games that have been remade (I-IV) are way better then there remakes. Always remember, Enix is only remaking them because they have ran out of idea's and are only in it for profit, they don't care what goes into Final Fantasy anymore, they only care about what comes after it... ...dirty ****ing money!

I don't exactly agree with you. Even though they are doing it for the money, (who wouldn't) I think they are bringing the good stories they came up with on new systems for kids that wasn't around when the SNES was new. When's the last time you saw a new SNES for sale? Also, the black bottom disks of VII-IX spawns problems after one scratch. So, I hope they remake them.

True.
