Acacia Sgt Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) From what I can tell, torta the sandwich is more or less a Mexico only thing. For cake we say pastel. Edited August 10, 2021 by Acacia Sgt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Armagon said: It's the same thing. For you, yes. However, from a Final Fantasy fan's perspective, not necessarily. FFs 1-11 were made pre-merger, the rest of the mainline titles came after. Also pre-merger, you had all the good Mana games, Chrono Trigger, and the SaGa franchise for those of very niche tastes. The 2003 merger with Enix can be taken as a turning point -for fans of certain opinions- the point where Square went from making good games to mostly churning out bad ones.

Square did seem to have a bigger variety during their Squaresoft days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd want to say the cost of game production was lower back in the day, so it was less costly to experiment. And small work teams were entirely viable, which you have in the case of indie titles, but not anything AAA nowadays. Not to mention development times were usually shorter. Let's see year-by-year SquareSoft's direct output (meaning things they did more than just publish), focusing on important titles and ignoring the junk time has forgotten (and ignoring the porting old of titles).: Spoiler 1987- Final Fantasy I 1988- Final Fantasy II 1989- The Final Fantasy Legend (the first SaGa game- Makai Toushi SaGa in Japanese) 1990- Final Fantasy III Final Fantasy Legend II 1991- Final Fantasy Adventure (the first Mana game) Final Fantasy IV (including a separate release of the EasyType version) Final Fantasy Legend III 1992- Romancing SaGa Final Fantasy Mystic Quest Final Fantasy V 1993- Secret of Mana Romancing SaGa 2 1994- Final Fantasy VI (Delayed according to hearsay for a year just to fine tune the music.) Live A Live 1995- Chrono Trigger Seiken Densetsu 3/Trials of Mana Secret of Evermore Romancing SaGa 3 1996- Radical Dreamers (a visual novel that is related to then-not-yet-developed Chrono Cross) Bahamut Lagoon Super Mario RPG Treasure of the Rudras 1997- Final Fantasy VII Final Fantasy Tactics SaGa Frontier Front Mission 2 A Chocobo Mystery Dungeon game And a well-praised 2D shoot 'em up called Einhander? Why Square? 1998- Some mostly meh AlienCog. Parasite Eve Brave Fencer Musashi 1999- Final Fantasy VIII SaGa Frontier 2 Legend of Mana Front Mission 3 Threads of Fate Chrono Cross Parasite Eve 2 2000- Vagrant Story Final Fantasy IX 2001- Final Fantasy X 2002- Kingdom Hearts Final Fantasy XI Unlimited SaGa 2003- Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Final Fantasy X-2 I spoilered this mostly b/c length. I don't expect you to actually do more than glimpse at it, I did this mostly out of my own curiosity. It's clear the pace of Square "classics" slowed at 2000 and onwards. But otherwise, you can't say this isn't a fairly good rate of in-house game production for a company that took needed some time to become the AAA giant it is today. 1999 was the peak year, although Threads of Fate is 7/10 material I read, Frontier 2 is narratively unfinished, and Chrono Cross is a mixed bag, but still impressive. And a new Square game -90% of the time an RPG- releasing every six months or less on average can't not have endeared the company to people. 9 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Cat I don't trust it.

Acacia Sgt Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) 11 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Radical Dreamers (a visual novel that is related to then-not-yet-developed Chrono Cross) More like, "Masato Kato wasn't satisfied with RD so he decided it should get a remake as a proper game rather than a VN, but then decided to add a bunch of other stuff to the point the actual RD-inspired content is only like 15% of what Cross ended up being and thanks to timey wimey shenanigans RD is still canon, just taking place in a different universe". Anyway, looking at the list, there's something amusing to see Squaresoft thought it'd help sales outside Japan if both the first SaGa trilogy games and the first Mana game were also called Final Fantasy "Something".
