Final Fantasy 14 and 16 producer Naoki 'Yoshi-P' Yoshida has said he's wary about potentially remaking what's secretly the best game in the series, Final Fantasy 9, because it could balloon into more than a single game like the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trilogy. In an interview with Video Games ( the website, I mean; your Xbox hasn’t gained sentience yet ), Yoshida said he's aware "there are requests for Final Fantasy 9 to be [remade], but when you think about Final Fantasy 9, it's a game with huge volume." Similar to its PS1 siblings, Final Fantasy 9's polygonal world was stretched across multiple kingdoms, deserts, caves, marshes, wintry peaks, and, err, unusual places that now seem rote by Final Fantasy standards.
"When you think about all of that volume, I wonder if it's possible to remake that as a single title," Yoshida says, probably alluding to the same problem Final Fantasy 7 had with its trilogy of expensive remakes. "It's a difficult one. It is a tough question.
" All that "volume" could be connected by a flat, barely detailed landmass that old-school JRPGS called the world map, but giving Final Fantasy 9 the fancy remake treatment would probably mean those locations would need to be stitched together more realistically, thus inflating an already huge game. Either way, Yoshida has said in the past that he's not working on the long-rumored project - in fact, he has no idea if a Final Fantasy 9 Remake is even in development . Elsewhere in the interview, though, Yoshida.
