>>3855577he doesn't show up unless it is related to Final Fantasy.
>>3855571Actually iirc Parasite Eve was basically just a tech demo they were working on for the engine when Tokita (director of CT and FF4) basically just wanted to turn it into a full game.
>>3855594dunno about xeno gears but ff7 was originally supposed to take place in real life nyc, but they decided against itthey then took the blonde blue-eyed protagonist in nyc idea and made PE1 with it

Final Fantasy became a story-focused series with Final Fantasy 4 because Sakaguchi wanted to get all the coverage Dragon Quest was getting in Shonen Jump and Dragon Ball editor Kazuhiko Torishima told him he'd get his coverage if he made the next Final Fantasy more story focused.
>>3857192>Sakaguchi was responsible for writing the initial plot, which was quite different from the final version.[52] In this draft for the planned SNES version, the game's setting was envisioned as New York City in 1999. Similar to the final story, the main characters were part of an organization trying to destroy Mako reactors, but they were pursued by a hot-blooded detective named Joe. The main characters would eventually blow up the city. An early version of the Lifestream concept was present at this stage.[37][41][52] According to Sakaguchi, his mother had died while Final Fantasy III was being developed, and choosing life as a theme helped him cope with her passing in a rational and analytical manner.[44] Square eventually used the New York setting in Parasite Eve (1998).[41] While the planned concept was dropped, Final Fantasy VII still marked a drastic shift in setting from previous entries, dropping the Medieval fantasy elements in favor of a world that was "ambiguously futuristic".[53]Fucking retard.
