It's called Final Fantasy because Squaresoft was going bankrupt and the game they were making was their final attempt before crashing. It has nothing to do with the "fantasy" setting or the "fantasy" of the mind. It's about a company's last chance at survival.
I think the fantasy setting may have also something to do with it.
I am curious though. Why persist in rejecting the subject of the thread?
What is there to be tarnished from allowing it and what value does it have to our society as a whole?
Is it worth defending, and if so, why?
That's apocryphal. They really just wanted a cool title that would abbreviate to FF, but "Fighting Fantasy" was taken. Sakaguchi is such an epic troll.
