But there are a few other things that feel a bit wrong, too.įor one, Garland, first boss of the original Final Fantasy, he of the “I will knock you all down” fame and a figure who seemingly appears in the game’s intro sequence, is nowhere to be seen when Jack and his friends Ash and Jed search the Chaos Shrine, they discover an armoured figure that resembles the stories they’ve heard of Garland, but which, upon its defeat, reveals itself to be a young woman named Neon who, like Jack, had felt an irresistible Chaos-related urge - though in her case, she wanted to become Chaos. In some respects, this is quite in keeping with the original Final Fantasy, since Chaos was only really revealed in a bit of a weird “surprise!” twist ending of the original game that never really made all that much sense. No-one seems to quite believe that Chaos is real, though they do believe in the darkness that is shrouding the land, and they do believe in the prophecy that states “four Warriors of Light shall come”. But in Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, something is… a bit off. He plays a key role in the Dissidia series, for example, and he’s a boss in the Omega storyline of Final Fantasy XIV.

But before long, something mysterious happens, Jack and his companions lose their memories in traditional RPG fashion, and Jack specifically is left with one specific urge in his mind: the need, the irresistible desire to defeat “Chaos”.įinal Fantasy veterans will know that Chaos was the demonic-looking final boss of the very first Final Fantasy game on NES, and a figure that has put in an appearance numerous other times in the series since. When we first join Jack and his friends, they are fighting Tiamat, a late-game boss from the first Final Fantasy game who has also made guest appearances in a few other installments.
