In the realm of gaming, few names carry as much weight as Hironobu Sakaguchi’s does for the Final Fantasy series. Revered as the architect behind this iconic series, Sakaguchi’s recent high praise for Final Fantasy 16 has sent ripples of excitement throughout the gaming community.

If you’re not already acquainted with Hironobu Sakaguchi, he’s the luminary often attributed with birthing the legacy that is the Final Fantasy franchise. Even though he stepped away from the series, Sakaguchi has remained an ardent admirer of its modern installments.

His recent tweet showers accolades upon Final Fantasy 16, labeling it the “ultimate fantasy.” His words of acclaim act as an affirmation of the game’s excellence and magnificence.

Square Enix’s developers must be overjoyed by Sakaguchi’s endorsement. Over a span of six years, they poured their creativity and effort into crafting Final Fantasy 16. Sakaguchi’s tweet not only praises the game but also serves as a tribute to the hard work and dedication invested by the development team.

Endorsed by the Visionary: Reflecting on the Series

Sakaguchi’s thoughts on Final Fantasy 16 extend beyond a single game. In another tweet, he encapsulates his perspective on the Final Fantasy series as a whole. He highlights attributes such as “adventurousness, courage, and determination” as the fundamental pillars that define this historic RPG series.

From his viewpoint, Final Fantasy 16 emerges as a embodiment of these foundational principles. When the originator of a series expresses such sentiments, it’s a compelling endorsement that carries considerable weight.

Although Sakaguchi’s direct involvement with Square Enix has evolved, his attachment to Final Fantasy remains unwavering. His ongoing support for Final Fantasy 14, a sentiment he’s showcased over the past few years, exemplifies this connection.

He’s not only shown admiration for the game but also engaged with its director, Naoki Yoshida, while eagerly seeking insights about Final Fantasy 16. It’s a testament to his commitment that Square Enix might consider gifting him a copy of the game.

Anticipating the Future: Final Fantasy’s Everlasting Impact

I think…
FINAL FANTASY is something that continues to evolve. It is never completed. Adventurousness, Courage, and Determination are the key words.#FF16 pic.twitter.com/tgr3i4Gk37

— 坂口博信 (@auuo) August 14, 2023

Sakaguchi’s sentiments also have fans looking ahead to the franchise’s future. With the upcoming expansion, Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail, scheduled for a summer 2024 release, his enthusiasm is likely to remain unwavering.

The anticipation mounts as the MMO’s journey continues with patch 6.5 set for release this October, followed by the second part early next year in January 2024. Sakaguchi’s support and interest undoubtedly contribute to the ongoing legacy of the series.

As the father of the Final Fantasy series, Hironobu Sakaguchi’s seal of approval elevates Final Fantasy 16 to a stature that only an originator’s recognition can confer.
