What is the purpose of the dancers featured in most of the classic FF titles?

Entertainment.
What else? It probably would have been different and more amusing/arousing if it were in 3D rather than… pixels. They did what they could with the technology of the time, I guess.

blame square-enix, not us. lol

Apparently the one in FFIV is actually meant to be a crossdresser – pointless fact. :p

But yeah, I think it was just a little tradition Sakaguichi established with the earlier titles, with FFVI the last one to feature dancers in that role, although it’s worth noting FFXI brought it back with some dancers in Upper Jeuno (but at least they serve a purpose, as part of the DNC advanced Job quest).

So true, Square-Enix are responsible for anything negative in FF games! 😀

Not just FF games… but almost every other game they’ve done since the PS2 era… Pity, as the NES/SNES/PSX era of SE games were quite good.

I don’t hate on Square Enix, I’m not saying things aren’t as good since they merged but they get a lot of stick for everything negative that comes out.

Squaresoft was a good company, made some great and memorable games. Square Enix on the otherhand…. /shrugs

they’re tryin. they really r. they did a decent job on final fantasy xiii & dragon quest ix. this could be the start of a big comeback.

Psssh… whatever you say. FFXIII was garbage. I’ve stated my reasons why before, and I’m not turning this thread into a flamefest. So conversation closed.

There was a Dancer in the DS remake of IV that was actually a Monk, if I recall correctly…
