This was a great edition and topic. Final Fantasy seems to be a hot topic with the upcoming release of FFXVI, as well as some of the looming exclusivity around it.

100% and there are other connecting strands throughout that I didn't cover here for sake of brevity. I just wanted to discuss the main ones and my intention was never to show that the past and the constants don't matter. I'd miss Cid, Moogles, Chocobos etc if they didn't show up again, they're as much part of it as anything but Final Fantasy just isn't defined by turn based combat, or older visuals, it's always pushed the envelope and that's what I wanted to put forward.
Thanks for reposting it as well man, appreciate it.

Sorry for the delay on responding, sounds good to me. I'll go ahead and do that as soon as I can. Cheers
Amazing, let me know when you're ready and we shall recommend you back as well!
Great write up, though one quibble around constants is mythology. Every enemy is a creature from some lore from around the world.
