Final Fantasy II, directed by Hironobu Sakaguchi and featuring the musical compositions of Nobuo Uematsu, is a console RPG that diverges from its predecessor with a story-intensive approach and the absence of a traditional experience-based progression system. The game introduced several series staples, such as chocobos and a character named Cid, and its story is unrelated to the first Final Fantasy game.
