Recently, a GQ interview with Naoki Yoshida and Hiroshi Minagawa, producer and art director of the upcoming Final Fantasy 16 game, discussed the possibility of dropping the numbers for future titles from the beloved Final Fantasy series which debuted way back in 1987. In the interview, Yoshida claimed that it could be difficult for new players to get into the games when they think that they have to start from the beginning, not knowing that each entry is a completely unique story. Personally, I think they should keep the numbers as they are a clear indication of when they were made (without being tacky and adding years to the titles like several sports game franchises).
However, what if the previous Final Fantasy games did have their own individual titles? What would they have been called? Running with that thought, I decided to take it upon myself to name each of the numbered entries for Final Fantasies 1-15 (not counting 14 because it technically already has its own name). If you had to give titles to the Final Fantasy games, what would you choose? Leave me a comment and let me know!
