Basically what's the first thing you think of when you think of Final Fantasy?

I think of IX, VI and XII personally, usually Vivi, Shadow or Balthier.

The first things that come to my mind when I think of FF are:
1. Music by Nobuo Uematsu (especially the theme that's played in the Rebel Hideout in FF2)
2. Various spells being cast (Including, but not limited to: Meteo, Holy, Flare, Fire3/aga)
3. Summoned creatures, especially Bahamut and Leviathan.
4. Wheee, airship!

Well, seriously, I think of:
1) Prelude
2) Battle Theme
3) Victory Theme
4) Enterprise/Invincible
5) Excalibur

Agreed. Also the theme played in the Ancient Castle, I think it was? The one you go to with Gordon.

Nice. That's basically the first thing that comes to my mind. Nothing is more iconic than the fluffy, yellow-feathered beast of burden that we breed and breed again until they are so inbred they can fly.

Childhood 2D RPGs that rocked my world. Which in turn ended up influencing me to make Endless Saga. Which in turn takes up a large amount of my spare time. Which in turn diminishes the amount of time I get to spent socializing. Which in turn means I'm more likely to die a boring, angry, single old man. Which basically means, FF is the sum of all my problems and should be lynched. sad.gif

Damn you FF for giving me wonderful childhood memories! Damn you!! sad.gif

One word...Swords, cuz i like swords...

But it also reminds me of crystals, majestic spell scenes (especially in 3-d games), and not so strangely...Lord of the rings, as it was a basis for RPG's and their elements!

yeah, go LoTR!

I think of... fantasy (crystals and stuff like that), battles with cool music, cool characters like Edgar, Zidane, Auron, etc., and hours and hours of fun!

Heh, Gamefaqs is that way ------>

Just kidding mate. wink.gif

You bring up a rarely discussed topic, though. Will the series ever end? I think so, but when that will be is anybody's guess. It seems ridiculous to think of a FF26 existing someday, though that surely can happen. My thoughts are that they would discontinue or rename the series before it got that high, though.

Gamefaqs? Never been there so I don't know what you mean...

The main reason I think it'd continue for so long is money, for them to make FFVII AC and all those other games within such small time shows they have money. And alot of it. They spend a little to gain alot. It won't die for a long time I'm sure. Anyway this is semi-offtopic...
