View Full Version : If you had to choose between even and odd numbered FFs...
Which would you choose, and why?

Most of the ff I like are odd.
9. 5. 7.
I like 6 and 12 yes but... well. 5 just trumps all for replayanilitu
So even numbers have IV, VI, and XII, which are all great, but they also have X...
And odd numbers have V, VII, and IX, but also XIII....
Damn you, Toriyama! :argh:

V and IX are odd, so yeah.

This poll is brutal. Leaving out V, VII and IX (and even the upcoming XV?) hurts, but I'll have to go with the evens.
I am leaning towards evens myself. II, IV, VI and X are all fantastic. There are of course some great odd numbered games that I'd have to leave out but II and X are some of my all time faves.
I knew this was going to be an evil question to ask :mwahaha:
At least you gave us a middle option

This is tough, though if we go by year of their original release, even is the way to go. II, III, V, VI, IX, XI, XII, XIV, and XV are certainly the way to go. ;)
Well, if I choose even I get X and XIV, IV is pretty good, VI seems like a game I'd like, and XII is okay-ish? BUT THEN I'D HAVE TO BE STUCK WITH VIII. D: Still, pretty decent line-up.
But I'd be giving up VII and the best of the series: IX.
Still, I think overall I'd have to go with evens for the sheer amount of time I spend in XIV and the overall enjoyment I'd get from how many great games available to me. Even if I'd have shitty VIII. Even if I'd lose perfect IX.

I just like even numbers better.

Hmm, good question. For me it goes between X/XII vs VII/XIII. XII and VII are my two favourites. X and XIII drags them down somewhat though I still find value in them, but I'll go for VII/XIII. Very tough choice, though.

I voted for the wrong one on the poll. Anyway, even is my actual pick.

Even, because IV, VI, VIII, X & XII are excellent. I'd miss the odds, but my top 3 are evens, so...

Well I've played and completed nearly all of the evens games. I've never played III, V or IX so I'm gonna go with odd so I get new experiences. Plus, I'll have my beloved VII then.
Also, FFXV could potentially be the greatest game of all time. All of you that chose evens WILL NEVER KNOW.
It's a tough one, the only FF's I really like are VII, X and XII, with VII being my favourite. I'd probably go for even in the end though, since X-2 is alright and I enjoy Triple Triad in VIII.

holy trout oh my god. i can't... i'm leaning towards odds but that would mean no ff6. that's the only reason i can't go for odds but it is such a big reason
i can't deal with not having ff5

Factors of 12 are more accurate, though it does miss 5 and 9.

V & VII vs. VIII & XIV is a really tough decision. In the end, I've opted for odd. But there is really no good choice. :(

...what?
Pretty sure Mirage wanted to quote Vivi instead of you.
But he done goofed.
considering my favorites (in numerical order) are VI, VII (inc. Compilation), VIII, X, & XIII (inc. XIII-2 & LR)... there's no possible way i could choose even or odd, it's too evenly mixed...
*i need to give XII a fair and proper chance but from what i've played of it it think it'd also make my list...

You'd still get XI, which is kinda like XIV, right? (haven't played either, so I'm not sure)

He has since edited it but no edit is going to save him, this goof has been preserved in our minds for all eternity

Hard to say, but I feel they're about as similar as FFX and FFXIII.

Gotta go odds.
I would sacrifice every other game to preserve IX. And it means I still get to play XV wheres you even suckers have to wait years for XVI to come out.
