I have to thank him – it’s a choice that I wouldn’t have come to on my own, but after playing the original Final Fantasy, warts and all, for myself, I can say that I agree. Originally I was planning on playing the PSP version of Final Fantasy I to start things off when RPG Site publisher and mega Final Fantasy nerd Alex Donaldson suggested if I was going through the effort of playing the series in order, I ought to start with the original version of FF1. I always knew that I had to rectify that eventually, and it just so happened that the news that Final Fantasy XVI was being developed by the same team that I’ve grown so attached to with XIV was just the excuse I needed to kick me into action – so, going into 2021, one of my goals became to play through every other numbered Final Fantasy in prep for it. All of those references in FF14 that I’m sure other players got giddy over? Well, while I’m not daft enough to miss the most obvious connections, the vast, vast majority of them soared over my head like an airship. While I might have played several Dragon Quests, enjoyed most of the Kingdom Hearts series, got lost in Chrono Trigger, and even reviewed a SaGa or two – I hadn’t touched a mainline, numbered Final Fantasy until I started my journey with Final Fantasy XIV early last year. I wouldn’t call this a confession – if you’re a regular listener to RPG Site's Tetracast podcast, then you’ll already know my deep, dark RPG secret.
