Honestly to me I don't even know if we'll reach the 30th entry in our lifetime.

If it does i feel like they'll find some way to work around it.

I don't see why they wouldn't. They'll play it completely straight, people will make a meme about it that spreads throughout the announcement and again through launch, and then they'll get over it.

Nothing new under the sun.

I kind of hope they abandon numbers and just go with subtitles, similar to what Assassin's Creed did. AC4 had both a number and a subtitle, but then the next game was just Assassin's Creed: Unity.

I sure hope so; I already made the cover art, printed it out and put it in an empty game case and left it on a Gamestop shelf 17 years ago.

If ArcSys was too cowardly to give us Guilty Gear XXX then there's no way Square Enix is brave enough to give us what we want.

Got confused by the title and was about to say, but I'm already in my 30s. I get the feeling they'll try to work around the XXX when the time comes lol.

If we count 10 each for each FF, let's say 7 years to be optimistic, FFXXX will be released in 105 years from now. (So it won't be)

I don't think they get that far before the naming changes or the series sputters out. At the current realistic development rate FFXXX would be decades away.

But even if they do get to it, they would probably just roll with it. Super Bowl did XXX. The only one they moved away from numerals for was 50 because "L" just looks dumb and it's hard to design around. And Final Fantasy certainly won't get to 50 considering it took forty years to get to 15.

It'll make searching for the game on Google a treat. 😂😂

Square Enix probably won't even be around for Final Fantasy XXX. It's going to take over 20 years to go from X to XVI. XVI to XXX will probably be 50 years.

Well, FF1 came out 33 years ago and we're halfway to XXX. Assuming FFXXX comes out 40 years from now I would think many of us would still be alive to see it.

Hopefully they *ahem* bring back the cast of Final Fantasy 7 for that one. Such a memorable cast has been sealed with a lock in all of our hearts.

Debut trailer - after a few minutes of music and vague scenery, a familiar face

The logo appears - Final Fantasy XXX

Line of dialogue from a familiar voice (okay maybe not that familiar after today's revelations, or choose a different character)

The logo shifts as the Xs combine - Final Fantasy X-3

The crowd goes wild

I have not played X so forgive me if my speculative fanfic is shit

super bowl xxx was before the modern internet, there's no way that shit would fly now lol

Even if we were to get a new Final Fantasy every 5 years, which is extremely optimistic, we wouldn't see FFXXX for another 70 years.

FFXXX will just be FFVIIR:R-3

But honestly I think they'll switch to Arabic numerals at some point, maybe 20 maybe 30, assuming the series continues that long.

Someone else already said it but the answer is "yes" and it'll unironically be porn. Like if they actually hit 30 they'll be like "we might as well try"

It will sell phenomenonally poorly and SE will go bankrupt.

I've been waiting for it since I was in middle school and learned about roman numerals.

Assuming a 4 year turn around per game, we're 56 years away.

Even 3 years apart, 42 years.
