Sakaguchi as his last- ditch effort in the game industry; the title was a success and spawned sequels. The video game series has since branched into other genres such as tactical role- playing, action role- playing, massively multiplayer online role- playing, racing, third- person shooter, fighting, and rhythm. The franchise has since branched out into other media, including CGI films, anime, manga, and novels. Although most Final Fantasy installments are stand- alone stories with different settings and main characters, they feature identical elements that define the franchise. Recurring elements include plot themes, character names, and game mechanics. Plots center on a group of heroes battling a great evil while exploring the characters' internal struggles and relationships. Character names are frequently derived from the history, languages, pop culture, and mythologies of cultures worldwide. The series has been commercially and critically successful; it is Square Enix's best selling video game franchise, with more than 1. The series is well known for its innovation, visuals, and music, such as the inclusion of full motion videos, photo- realistic character models, and orchestrated music by Nobuo Uematsu. Final Fantasy has been a driving force in the video game industry, and the series has affected Square Enix's business practices and its relationships with other video game developers. It has also introduced many features now common in role- playing video games and has been credited with helping to popularize console- based RPGs in markets outside Japan. The first installment of the series premiered in Japan on December 1. Subsequent titles are numbered and given a story unrelated to previous games; consequently, the numbers refer more to volumes than to sequels. Many Final Fantasy games have been localized for markets in North America, Europe, and Australia on numerous video game consoles, personal computers (PC), and mobile phones. Future installments will appear on seventh and eighth generation consoles. As of November 2.

Subsequent remakes of the first three games have replaced the previous logos with ones similar to the rest of the series. Stories frequently involve a sovereign state in rebellion, with the protagonists taking part in the rebellion. The heroes are often destined to defeat the evil, and occasionally gather as a direct result of the antagonist's malicious actions. As such, control over these crystals drives the main conflict. Most famously, every game since Final Fantasy II, including subsequent remakes of the original Final Fantasy, features a character named Cid. Cid's appearance, personality, goals, and role in the game (non- playable ally, party member, villain) vary dramatically. However, two characteristics many versions of Cid have in common are 1) being a scientist or engineer, and 2) being tied in some way to an airship the party eventually acquires. Every Cid has at least one of these two traits. Biggs and Wedge, inspired by two Star Wars characters of the same name, appear in numerous titles as minor characters, sometimes as comic relief. Moogles, on the other hand, are white, stout creatures resembling teddy bears with wings and a single antenna.

Some restrict a character to a single job to integrate it into the story, while other games feature dynamic job systems that allow the player to choose from multiple classes and switch throughout the game. Though used heavily in many games, such systems have become less prevalent in favor of characters that are more versatile; characters still match an archetype, but are able to learn skills outside their class. The method by which characters gain magic varies between installments, but is generally divided into classes organized by color: . Summoned creatures are often referred to by names like . The most common is the airship for long range travel, accompanied by chocobos for travelling short distances, but others include sea and land vessels.

In 1. 98. 7, Square designer Hironobu Sakaguchi chose to create a new fantasy role- playing game for the cartridge- based NES, and drew inspiration from popular fantasy games: Enix's Dragon Quest, Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda, and Origin Systems's Ultima series. Though often attributed to the company allegedly facing bankruptcy, Sakaguchi explained that the game was his personal last- ditch effort in the game industry and that its title, Final Fantasy, stemmed from his feelings at the time; had the game not sold well, he would have quit the business and gone back to university. The name was originally going to be Fighting Fantasy, but due to concerns over trademark conflicts with the roleplaying gamebook series of the same name, they needed to settle for something else. According to Sakaguchi, any title that created the . Because Sakaguchi assumed Final Fantasy would be a stand- alone title, its story was not designed to be expanded by a sequel.
