Squaresoft, because of FF9 and Parasite Eve, also many of there other games ofc.

I Slap Enix because they deserve it :x

In my opinion, Square should regroup with Soft, Soft Squares own. Id not really heard of Enix and was quite upset when Squaresoft lost its softness :<

Ohh, and wasnt Square-soft one company? Instead they merged with Enix and Squaresoft became Square?

I might petition to get Squaresoft back to been soft!

Ya know, I think Square Enix is the best because of the CGI staff on FFXIII.

But Squaresoft has brung memories with FFXII-FFX.

So there's no competition.

Well, actually i did some research on the whole situation, and SquareSoft were going Bankrupt after there millions in losses for the Film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, as it was a failure, tho not a *Bad* film.

Square Co needed a lifeline, Enix helped them out, it would be wrong if Square said, *We dont want to be Parnters anymore* because they are out of the bad situation now.

So thumbs up for Enix for helping, but i will kick there ass if Enix makes a mistake :P

Check this Squaresoft History or this Hironobu Sakaguchi history. After reading all this, i think Squaresoft had our support even in awful economic conditions :D

ooooh... the bad times of the millenium. I was afraid i was seeing the last of FF at that time. :( I was thinking " wow, number 10 is a nice way to end Final Fantasy"

Thing is, Final Fantasy has changed because of the merger. A lot of cows were born thereafter. But, it would be entirely inpossible for SquareSoft to make a comeback alone. SSoft is financially stripped of this entity. Besides, if SSoft is to detached itself from SEnix and work alone again, it will never be the same without Enix's backing. Enix has the money, Square has the talent. That's what i think. Losing any one of them will just cause major problems to Square Enix itself.

Also, for everyone who doesn't know. Enix is the part of the company which creates the most popular game in Japan, the Dragon Quest series. For years, Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest fights for the top position in Japan. They [Square Soft and Enix ] became brothers, borned through rivalry i would say. :P

what does Final Fantasy make you wanna say then? I want to say: moooooooooooo. :oops: sorry. Really, SE changed Final Fantasy. It's really all about making more money now. I wonder how long people can stay faithful to Final Fantasy, with SE's robust marketing strategies.

Well, it is impossible to get Squaresoft back, so SE it is for me. And, it's not like Square changed, they just merged. Most mergers are for the best, and I think this one was one of them. Thats just my 2 cents......

They are revolutioning the way RPGs are, they want to create a genre named Final Fantasy. I used to be a die-hard fan of Square, but know i realized that i loved Squaresoft but not SquareEnix.

Dragon Quest could make you say just ENIX too :D

I guess I'll go with Squarsoft ... 'cos it's related to memory & the impression of good stories in games plus good style & innovative way to always inpress gamers ... in the other hand SquareEnix should really try to make some horror games , they work in good psycho ways ... like Drakengard for example . very impressive !!!

Final Fantasy is still created by the Square part of Squeenix. So, it doesn't really matter. All i know is that SE is stronger financially and is more "stable". High-quality games can only come out from this merger. So, i think it's for the best. ya.

I think they chose the wrong name when they merged... should have called it E^2(E squared).

The name E^2 popped up one day when my friend and I were lining up to see the debut of Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's chest. We were discusssing about the merger of Bandai and Namco and what names they should have used instead. We had some ideas like Namdai and Banco or something totally unrelated like Cyberdyne Systems.

We ended up talking about another famous merger company, SquareEnix. We tried coming up with new names for that as well, and E^2 was one I came up with. Apparently, it cracked him up in the process. Thus, E^2 pops in my head whenever I see the name SquareEnix.

On a side note, when we switched to game projects SquareEnix might have produced, Final Quest and Dragon Fantasy soon became our wonder.

E^2 didn't make as much sense as this one ^. :lol:

E^2 sounds like there are two Enix-es. And there's only one Square. oh well, just me. Imagine having FQ and DF games. 2D + 3D graphics.
