Final Fantasy's name is even indicative of that last-ditch artisanship... > [Sakaguchi's] employer Square refused to give him permission [to make an RPG] as it expected low sales of such a product > ...the title was later changed to Final Fantasy as the game was thought to be the company's final project under the threat of bankruptcy. Sakaguchi also explained that the new title stemmed from his personal situation: had the game not sold well, he would have quit the games industry and gone back to university.
