Final Fantasy almost prevented my existence. My father was so enamored with the game and the downright addictive qualities it and the whole JRPG genre contained, that he stayed up late at night leveling up his characters and slaying any enemy that dared cross his path. My dad loved Final Fantasy, but there was one thing that he would throw that entire experience away for: my mom. She was so fed up with his late night gaming tendencies that she threatened to leave him. My dad then realized he couldn�t ruin his relationship with his girlfriend over some Japanese game that ultimately didn�t mean anything in the grand scheme of things. So he toned it down, let my mom sit down with some Lolo action on the NES, and went on with his life.
