Kairi, how difficult can it possibly be to understand that Square funds alternative series on the profits generated by established series? CT, XG, FFT, VP, FM, ToF, VS, are all low-selling, high-risk titles created out of the money the cash cows of their respective times generated. (CT was a surprise smash hit but afaik all of the other listed series' games have much lower sales than any FF game.) Some games they lost money on. They do that because they care about the fans who just want more of the same old and fans who want something radically different. Companies that ignore either die.
Enix was rather more conservative in their new franchise creation before merging, but that's the past. (And it still spawned some gems.)

Pepole move on. Do you want to be stuck at one company working on one franchise forever? Would you turn down offers of more money from others, or a chance to start your own studio, to stay in your little world churning out chrono games for the masses? (Assuming you were remotely creative, which doesn't seem to be the case here.)
