Reminds me of the castle of Alexandria in Final Fantasy IX.


Well I say it reminds me... but in reality, the conceptartists have most likey been influenzed by the real architecture. I read somewhere (sorry, no source) that the inspiration came from German, French and Spanish architecture, but I am not sure if I remeber it right, but I am positive of the German inspiration. It shows quite well here...








Oh, I forgot. I haven't heard this, it's just my theory but I think they might have got inspiration from the spansih architect Antoni Gaudi for the town of Burmecia in FFIX.




And here is Burmecia...



Sorry I didn't have better examples to show but I think you can see the similarities. Fact is that Final Fantazy IX's location art isn't something you can just point out and say which architectural style they've ripped off. It's a style of its own.
