Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi worked on a bunch of Final Fantasy games throughout his career. But which one is he the most proud of? That honor goes to the original Final Fantasy.
In an interview with IGN, Sakaguchi explained why this is his choice:
“There was no guarantee that this game would make it. There were a lot of worries, a lot of unstable factors going into this project. The original team only consisted of four people. Even in the end when we wrapped up the project, there was probably about ten of us.”
Sakaguchi added: “The culmination of [all] the feelings and memories I have towards the first Final Fantasy is probably the largest.”
In making Final Fantasy, Sakaguchi handled several different roles on the team. However, that was never an issue since he had a good rapport with his small team. “With such a small number of people that you can rely on, the relationship that we were able to build…was that much deeper and that much stronger,” he said.
