JUST THE BEGINNING
After fasting almost 5 years since FFX, FF fans are finally presented with the main FF titles as well. Previously, Square-Enix was busy working on FF spin-off from other kinds of X-2 which is a sequel of FFX as well as Dirge of Cerberus, which is the sequel of FFVII. Why so long the process? many important things that happened of course and this question may be answered by 2 people, 1. director Yasumi Matsuno is also a talented staff of Squaresoft and have worked on the titles masterpiece kinds of Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy Tactics. And of course the legend as well as the originator of FF series, Hironobu Sakaguchi.

Within 5 years it was a lot going on in the body's own Square management. Of course, after their merger with Enix, they need their restructuring the company. After the event the merger, Square-Enix dare to take drastic action against their products especially the FF series. One of the most surprising of course, is to make the prequel and sequel of FF. And of course it is strongly opposed by Hironobu Sakaguchi as the originator of FF. Nothing in his dictionary if FF will have a prequel even a sequel, because every FF for once he was the journey traveled so that every new FF feels very special that played well for FF fans and for the makers. And indeed there is truth to his principles was, until now Square-Enix is ​​considered by many fans already do not have improvised as they used to be because it was too busy doing good to remake prequel / sequel of FF.

Sakaguchi himself chose to quit (or get fired?) From Square-Enix before FFXII was completed even though his name still appears at the end of FFXII credit. He then founded his own game company called Mistwalker. It certainly makes the fans even doubted if FFXII confusion will behasil completed with good quality. Yasumi Matsuno, the director himself for health reasons, resigned from his post and until now not known what was still working on the Square-Enix or had stopped. His position was then replaced by Hiroyuki It? and Hiroshi Minagawa with experience working on Saga series.

Year 2006 FFXII finally completed successfully. Then how the response of the FF fans will have the longest processing time of this? Many have praised the gameplay changes that were present but many also chided if FFXII is FF which "failed" because the story is very "thin" compared to all the FF series. Whatever the reaction of fans, FFXII has sold over 4 million copies over (read: ori) worldwide until the end of 2007 and certainly provides great benefits for Square-Enix.
