While it received a polarizing reaction from fans, Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin is an experimental release which made a significant departure from the traditional formula of the series, but also explored a new take on an existing narrative. Its adoption of a Soulslike, or in the case, developer Team Ninja's Nioh-like approach may separate it from the rest of FF, but this title has also unlocked new potential for the future continuation of the franchise's current trend of remakes.
