A partir del análisis del desarrollo del videojuego Final Fantasy VII (1997), el siguiente trabajo reflexiona sobre la relación entre paradigma tecnológico y modos de producción de narrativas en la actualidad. Partiendo del análisis de Manuel Castells sobre el informacionalismo como paradigma tecnológico dominante, proponemos que las franquicias, cuyas características principales son la reproducción y la redundancia, se imponen como uno de los modos de producción de narrativas en la actualidad por ser las formas más eficaces frente a la concentración de riquezas, objetivo último del sistema económico capitalista.
