I mean Square has definitely had a good run with FF, and I am definitely a lover of the games, but I mean, after more than 25 games of the title, and multiple spin- offs and remakes, how much longer will FF last?Do you think that you'll be going out to buy the newest FF when you're 60?

Lol, I will prolly buy it too, when I'm 60.And square didn't make FF as a joke, they made as a last- ditch effort.

That's what I'm saying too dude, I hope it lasts forever, but I'm just trying to be realistic.

Its long enough.Newer games no longer have returning characters or anything, so there is no reason to make more.Not to say that FFIII should not have FFIII-2, but I'm saying no more FFXIV and FFXL and such.The games have good mechanics and usually a good story, but FF in general should be stopped because of utter obscurity.

Final Fantasy will end when:-Square Enix stops gaining profit from the series-Square Enix closes-The lead directors die/move on and the new directors decide to ditch the project-The series loses fans and SE decides it isn't worth keepingIn other words, not for a long time. I too am a little concerned that the series has thirteen main games and is still going strong, but SE is more interested in profit than the thoughts of a single fan.

Don't quote me on this, but I heard through the grapevine that FF XIII is supposed to be the "final" numbered game. That doesn't mean they won't put out more sequels or "Mythic Quests" and "Legends" (and yes I enjoy using "").

It will probably end when people stop being interested in the series.

Besides the name, the anime style, and some similar game mechanics, each FF is different. It's a different world with different characters and a different story. When people lose interest in it, then they'll stop making it. And I doubt that will happen any time soon.

Technically they are done with the main numbered series, however they are starting a new series with the thirteenth instalments, called Fabula Nova Crystallis. However they are still going to have a few more side series.

I'm not a big FF fan but I do like Final fantasy tactics, just like how Mortal Kombat cant seem to die, and I'd pray Tekken lives on forever, I dont think Final Fantasy is going anywhere.

It will probably end when another company buys out square and botches the re-staffing. That or when people don't want to play anymore because there are only so many different plots that you can have without taking from a previous game.

They're probably just going to keep on making Final Fantasy games,or games that are bonded to Final Fantasy,until finally they run out of ideas...

I hope it doesn't in all honesty. Depite people thinking they have gone over the top, they make good games, that can't be denied. Ok, they flopped slightly with 12, and a bit with X-2 (I, personally, LOVED the dressphere system), but overall their games are decent quality, and people enjoy them. If that's the case, I don't think they should get rid of it.

Never!(I hope at least) Final Fantasy will die if Square Enix gets bought out or the game whenever the game flops in sales. Final Fantasy is a product, and when products don't sell companies look for different products.
