Final Fantasy naming convention is extremely east to figure out. It's literally numbers. You can't get more obvious than that

Each numbered entry is essentially a new IP. Meaning everything with VII in the name belongs to VII universe

Sometimes those games are stand alone (IX, XV, etc) and sometimes they have sequels or spin offs (XIII, X, VII)

It's like Persona, every spin off of Persona 5 is on Persona 5 universe, whilst Persona 3 and 4 has no connection to Persona 5 whatsoever

Can someone quickly me explain how is this naming convention harder to understand than franchises with completely different names that doesn't explain anything about the chronological position of the game ?
