[QUOTE="Lupin, post: 9134723, member: 7042758"] You must be referring to that little-known game [I]Dungeons & Dragons[/I], of which Final Fantasy (1) was a pretty direct copycat, right? ;) (Or did you mean "[I]hasn't[/I] been"? On that point, I would agree, it's a weird merchandising oversight. Maybe they felt TTRPGs were not their forte or a profitable medium. Or maybe they just felt outclassed by—and perhaps too similar to—Sword World & D&D.) Edit: Can I also note that I kind of hate that they're using the acronym TTRPG, and with that big first "T" like it's a word and not an abbreviation? Kind of an eyesore on such an otherwise beautiful box. But this is also the company that got us game titles like [I]Dissidia [duodecim] 012 Final Fantasy[/I], [I]Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue[/I], and [I]Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[/I], so I guess it's par for the course.
