It was Dragon Quest's success that made Squaresoft, which was a failing company at the time, to try one last "Final" game that would be a similar "Fantasy" to try to ride on Dragon Quest's coattails. there's no shared artwork style, the way you capture the monsters is different, the way they learn skills and you combine the monsters to make new ones etc.ĭragon Quest was basically THE ORIGINAL Japanese RPG, starting in 1986, and it is to this day the "default" JRPG, the very idea of what a JRPG even is, to the point that all parodies of the genre have the same types of heroes and Maous/"Overlord"/"Demon King" final bosses. Originally posted by Femaiden:dragon quest monsters was an obvious copy of pokemon, but they made that game distinct enough. I'd just be surprised if square doesn't hit these devs with some sort of copyright claim. I'd love to see more games like it being made. I'm not saying that a game inspired by FFT is a bad thing. The hp and mp "life bars" look just like final fantasy tactics.Īt the bottom of the screen it shows the turn order and has a stat called "CT" which was lifted straight from final fantasy tactics as well. One of the screenshots shows a character with a passive ability "auto-potion" which looks exactly the same as the auto-potion from final fantasy tactics. The archers look identical to the final fantasy tactics archers. The character designs,with the arms and the body proportions. I dunno what you see, but what I see IS an almost exact copy of the "appearance" at least Originally posted by Lydia XIII:If they had purely copied FFTs appearance and class system it might be mentioned as being a 'copy', but considering its different on both subjects, its absolutely not an issue, plus its not like anybody that know FFT doesn't know that its a style of game that is found around, if albeit virtually none that seem of that quality.
