Best Easter eggs and hidden details in Fantasian Neo dimension

Fantasian Neo dimension was scheduled to be the title of farewell for some icons in the sector. Both hifano sakaguchi and nobuo uematsu approached development as if they would have been their last game: their health and their age dictate the rhythm of development. After three years as an exclusive of Apple Arcade, the game was launched on a wide variety of platforms with the support of Square Enix.

Fantasian is a game immersed in nostalgia: torment at the time of PS1 Jrpgs – at the golden age of Square. But it is also a scrupulously passionate project of one of the greatest directors that the game has ever seen – and pays homage to its peers. Here are some of the best Easter eggs, callbacks and hidden details in the game.

Wine of the 30th anniversary of Final Fantasy

Fantasian director and composer will both be connected to Final Fantasy forever. Even if Sakaguchi was with Mistwalker longer than he was with Square, and the involvement of Uematsu has fallen, Final Fantasy is even the first series that comes to mind to feel their names.

In fact, Fantasian's creation has been stimulated by the good memories of Sakaguchi of FF6. For this reason, the game is full of FF references. One of the most remarkable Easter eggs: a bottle of wine in Vence is labeled with Final Fantasy 30th Anniversary. A vintage end.

The 30th anniversary is a reference to the fact that Fantasian started development in 2017, exactly three decades after the launch of original Final Fantasy.

Croce Chrono callback

What do Fantasian and Chrono Cross have in common? Well, apart from the aesthetic, they are both mostly serious with a trio of minor antagonists who act for half as tutorial garments and half as a comic relief.

The Tri-Stars of Cinderella are Espositi of Karsh, Solt and Peppore di Chrono Cross. They are not too demanding and captivating for the start and often the victims of their devices fall. This is a thinner nod, moreover, but all we are saying is Folt rhyme with Solt for one reason.

Snooping in the Cheryl suite

It doesn't matter how much modern fantasian is, it is not above a little anime humor directly since the 90s. Here is a hidden interaction that you can have: at a certain point if you enter Cheryl's suite instead of following her somewhere else, it will come and reproach you out of browse in a woman's room.

In particular, this is the only time so far that Leo is the solo member of the party. Okay if you enter the suite with Kina or Cheryl on the party, so this movie is triggered only if Leo is alone. Speaks of the cohesion of ledges.

The enemy Funi

As a heavy title, Fantasian understands that his high random meeting rate can lead to a frustration sometimes. To relieve this, the game provides you with a size that Banishes has met monsters in another kingdom, which you can enter to fight to your liking.

We advise you to turn off the dimgeon while crossing the ancient mountain path, because there is a possibility that you will come across the Funa: an enemy who asks for materials to be used before it gives you a precious object. If you take too long to pay them, ends up attacking you, brutally. Wait for your party to be swept away if you make it unhappy.

Funa will offer you a double or nothing business, but unless you are too level, you should refuse it as it will ask you stronger attacks than your party has the first time it passes.

Pre-Resi dioramas

Fantasian's navigation takes place almost exactly like that of PS1 JRPGS: characters who move on a pre-report background. Fantasian's interesting fact is that the backgrounds are actually dioramas that the team created in real life, before photographing them and inserting them in a game. In particular, the camera can move to give you a three -dimensional view of the dioramas at certain points, while the PS1 JRPG backgrounds cannot only scroll or have cuts to the camera.

However, if you are observed at certain points, you can see how this technical trick has been reached: the dioramas were simply photographed by fixed corners applied to the corner of the planned camera and faded when the camera moves. It is fascinating, inventive and full of soul.

Buster Sword in Vibra

In Vibra, there is a huge sword on the wall of a weapon shop. If you talk to an NPC next to it, mention that she loves reading fantasy novels and thinks that the sword on the wall seems really familiar.

Leo and the NPC may not know, but ask any Final Fantasy fan and they will tell you: this is the Buster sword on the wall. The dialogue also makes references to its unique shape and size. Was the girl reading a Final Fantasy 7 novels? If so, we hope it was better than Final Fantasy 10 novel.

2

The unprecedented composition of Nobuo Uematsu

In the city of Vence, the references become rather direct. One of the most obvious is an orchestral piece that you can discover in a house: it is composed of the same Nobuo Uematsu. Apparently Leo is not a big fan of the JRPG, as it has no reaction to this information.

The piece is entitled The Great Escape della Melma. It is not played in the game and there is no piece named in any game on which Uematsu has worked. Perhaps it is prefiguration of a song to come, or a reference to a track that will remain unpublished. Maybe Uematsu is just a Melma Rancher fan.

Akira Toriyama is a character

Akira Toriyama is one of the greatest cultural ambassadors that Japan has ever produced. Even if now deceased, its inheritance in video games and souls will continue for a long time. And in small, his name will be preserved forever in this game.

In the city of Vibra, you can explore a house where a book is signed Akira Toriyama. It is implicit that the resident NPC is, in fact, the creator of Dragon Ball himself. The book also has Dragon in the title, even if it is not sure what the complete title would be. It would be a family territory for Toriyama: he worked on Dragon Ball, Dragon Quest and Blue Dragon of Mistwalker.

Akira Toriyama worked on a Diorama for Fantasian Neo dimension, even if it is not known which one.
