It’s an attempt to splice the console RPG with a survival horror game (as popularized by Resident Evil), and also a new phase in SquareSoft’s scheme to make games that behaved more like film – or at least into something commanding more respect than electronic toys.įilling the RPG part of the equation – the hit points, battle mechanics, and storyline/scenario stuff – was director and lead designer Takashi Tokita, who had previously directed Final Fantasy IV and Chrono Trigger. Marketed in the States as SquareSoft’s first post- Final Fantasy VII big-budget title, it was the company’s first game to receive an “M” rating from the ESRB, and possibly the first video game to refer to itself as a “cinematic RPG.” This an amalgamation of amalgamations. Eventually, Sakaguchi had his way and got his NYC detective game, though not in the form of a Final Fantasy title. Sakaguchi obviously had to make a few concessions, and so the first few hours of Final Fantasy VII are set in a squalid metropolitan nightmare from which the player is then ejected to run, ride, and fly around a more familiar RPG world map for the rest of the game.
