I'm trying to start my own rpg game but I don't know of a good name.

"Past" was one but I don't like it.

The RPG has a final fantasy feel (magic, summons, travel the galaxy). The setting is that the planet the main character lives is always at war and only way to survive is to have either money, being a high-ranked officer or some part of royalty.

How about "Eternal Conflict".
Oh pitiful shadow lost in the darkness, bringing torment and pain to others. Oh damned soul wallowing in your sin, perhaps...it is time to die

"The adventures of super-secret galaxy-fantasy man: Now with 100% more secret-fantasy-galaxies!"

Ok.   Serious now.  I hate games that have "cool" names, but have little or nothing to do with the plot.  Don't call your game "Event Horizon" if it's about grooming puppies.  The final fantasy series is great, but if there is one thing to NOT take away from them, it's their naming convention.

Identify what central theme to the game(you already have) and expand upon that.  For instance, your plot seems to resolve around the struggle to gain personal wealth in order to survive, so having a title that expresses that struggle would work.  Hell, you can steal a title from one of the FFT chapters("The Meager" or just "Meager")[just examples, not suggestions] and it would at least give some sense of what the story is about.

This is all totally my opinion, so take it with a grain of salt.

I'm making an RPG that has an affection/dating mechanic. All using just what is provided by my cracked RPG maker XP. It's name is "Cloud of Despair". If you guys want, I can post a demo once I get it far enough.

rpg maker 3 has good graphics, but the mechanics suck. Rpgmaker two is much better.
