Video game development is a long, hard, and convoluted process, and often things are cancelled, removed or [[Dummied Out]]. Maybe something just didn't work in practice, or they didn't have time to implement it in the way they wanted. Whatever the reasons, we can only wonder [[What Could Have Been]].
Line 17:
** Jenova is a ''massive'' change from it's original concept, as explained in "Another Hypothesis". Initially, Jenova was supposed to be a [[A Worldwide Punomenon|gene]] that was a part of every person, and that Aeris could use this power naturally because she's a Cetra. Shinra's methods for creating SOLDIER are the same as the final product, but they, along with Sephiroth, were [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic|"awakened" beings]] with the gene. The Turks would be the people who were able to ''sense'' the usage of Jenova, and they would bring the subjects back to Shinra for experimentation.
* [[Final Fantasy VIII|Edea]] was originally conceived as a ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' character; most likely a humanoid version of Jenova given her personality in the final game.
* Concept art of ''[[Final Fantasy IX]]'' shows two protagonists named [http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090728152351/finalfantasy/images/1/1f/EarlyFFIX-Bahamut_Dragoon_and_Leviathan_Dragoon.jpg Bahamut Dragoon and Liviathan Dragoon],{{sic}}
** The concept art for the "Rat Knight" ended up becoming Fratley and Freya, with genders changed and motivations split down the middle.
*** It's also kind of hard to not think of Amarant when looking at the Elementalist guy.
Line 35:
* The Ivalice-related spin-off ''[[Vagrant Story]]'' had a sequel planned for the Gamecube sometime before 2003.
* ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' was originally going to offer online elements but this plan was scrapped early in development.
