After leaving Square Enix, Hironobu Sahaguki and the others of the good old Squaresoft team (FFI-FFX) rejoined together as Mistwalker, and have restarted over. It's sad that they had to leave Final Fantasy behind in the hands of their former rival (Enix, Dragon Quest team, of which Yoshida was a part of I reckon), but hey! It seems they have started a new series called Last Story.
Last = Final
Story = Fantasy
I expect great things from it, even though they're starting with very limited budget and hardware <_< dang Nintendo....
But yes, I would expect no less from Kojima.
Last Story is very fun and VERY pretty. It's basically every Final Fantasy trope wrapped into ball with an interesting fight mech added. It's still on my "need to finish" list but I'm close enough to the end to say it has a great story (and the towns are very cool and feel lived in).
Yep, I am very hopeful that Last Story will bring back the good Final Fantasy! I am sad to see FF decline in quality, but sadly it has been this way to me since Squaresoft and Enix joined together. Hopefully Last Story will bring back its former glory, if only with a different name!
To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
