Do I want to know what that is? Five nights just meaning surfing some pr0n site?
... how have you made it this far? I wish I had your life
Just what is this "final" fantasy? Is it the last in a series? Why are there 17 sequels?
There is a common myth that they were in dire straights and named it such because if It failed it would end the company. The truth is, they wanted to name it Fighting Fantasy, but that was already taken. Wanting to keep the alliteration, they changed to Final Fantasy, without a significant meaning attached to the title.
