So I saw they released Final Fantasy Resonance. And it seems like an amalgam game. Like a best of episode. And that’s not what I mean. For me growing up FF7 was my introduction to the series. I had a Super Nintendo but I just missed FF6 somehow. I think it would be awesome if Square Enix’s next mainline title was a throwback (visually) and sported modern retro pixel graphics. All new characters and a new storyline though. They won’t do that but I think it would be awesome.
I also really enjoyed Xenogears, one of my top three games of all time for sure. There is a game on steam called Chained Echos that hit some of those same notes.

This is the kind of thing I’m talking about.
It’s more Chrono Trigger than Final Fantasy, but I’m keeping an eye on Threads of Time.

No release date or demo yet, but all the previews look sick as fuck. Hopefully they don’t fumble this.
Last game I bought like this was really really bad and I had to refund. I hope this team is more intelligent and capable.
