>and what exactly is stopping SE from making an FF inspired by Amano's old art?
my guess? deadlines
i doubt amano has the energy to come up with enough character concepts in time
he's 73, anon. I'm sure he came up with the endsinger and hydaelyn. maybe zodiark. but he had enough time to do so for the end of the arc
If we think in a positive way, he might be working right now on the upcoming big final boss of the current arc.
