I didn't play much FF's, but I dislike part 2. I have Dawn Of Souls, and I have finished FF1 for 2 months now, and in FF2 I'm in Kashuan Keep, with weak charas.

How anyone can hate FFIX or FFVIII more then FFX-2 is behond me.

Anyway, FFX-2 is easily the worst FF game ever. Just horrible, simply horrible.

X-2 was fun and kept me relatively entertained, which is more than I can have said for ff4.

I don't think it's necessary to have the terrm "turd cracker" as a topic title. :mad:

Thread like this will never have a solution, because it depends on very individual tastes.

Well, that's why he's asking for our opinion. ;D

Of all the ones I've played, I think FF1 is the worst. But "worst" is a bit harsh; I just found it extremely boring. I like a uh, developed story, and characters. It feels too simple to me. Like rubah said, X-2 was at least entertaining, even though I didn't like it. It makes sense. :)

Mystic Quest would win this if anyone had actually played the game. Thankfully most of you seem to have not had the pleasure. Failing that as an option I'd have to vote Crystal Chronicles.

*Played both FFMQ and FF CC and I loved both.*

FFx-2 is still the worst FF game ever made.

I utterly, utterly HATED the "player's guide" for FFIX.

When you pay £15 for a guide book you don't expect to have to read "go to our website to find this out" or "go to our website to find that out" etc.

GAH! I KEEL J00!

I did and I agree! Mq is the worst 'turd cracker' It is a floater in the abysial toilet of crap RPGs, but it is still horrid.

I quite liked Mystic Quest. Maybe it was just the way you could choose your enemy encounters and won prizes for defeating battlefields of enemies...

Prizes = incentive for fighting/leveling up.

Well I love all the Final Fantasy's I played but my least fav would be Tactics. I thought the battles took to long

I have played it. It's a cute little game, not particularly difficult. The only tricky part was two character parties were very vunerable to petrification attacks.

As Light Mage suggested, visible enemies that you could pick your battles with was a nice touch.

It's nowhere near the top of my favorite FFs but I didn't hate it with a passion either.

I agree for the most part, the ROM of it was poor. But I did enjoy it, and seeing as it was a ROM. I had to give it credit.....

I loved Mystic Quest, and still have the cart :o

My least favourite was FF8. I hate the game so much, I never even give it the dignity of Roman Numerals.

I don't hate any of them really, but FF1 really is the worst of them all. Some may say that's a bit of an unfair assessment; that since it was the first in the series it's not going to seem as good as the others. My response to them is that FF4, and FF6 (my favorite game of all time btw) have held up very well despite each being over a decade old. FF1 had pretty good gameplay, but it's total lack of a compelling story or actual characters keeps it from being very fun in the long run for me.

Final Fantasy I
Not because it's crap but because I found it hard to get into. I am sure that if I played it when it first hit the shelves I would of been amazed.

I disliked FFI, FFIX and FFX-2 aswell as the Final Fantasy that had Cecil in it. I don't dislike Cecil, I just don't know if this Final Fantasy is IV or V.

But I like in order of preference:

1. FF6 & FF7 (Draw)
2. FF8
3. The Final Fantasy with only four main characters (Where you choose jobs for them(On SNES))
3. FFMQ
4. FFX

The rest I havn't played.

The only one's I can say I hate/dislike were Mystic Quest and FF-X2. They just didn't feel like a FF game. Granted Mystic Quest came out a long time ago, but also at that time I believe Zelda: Link to the Past came out and that game kicked a$$

Final Fantasy IV, aka Final Fantasy II on SNES. It was rereleased as FFIV on PSX.

Interesting, I thought FFIV's plot was even better than FFVI's as far as the SNES FF's went. Although I didn't care for rigidly defined character classes.

I thought FFV had a much worse plot than either FFIV or FFVI, but the flexible job system partially made up for it.

Least Favorites with ration explanations as to why:

FFVII: I just didn't get into the storyline (and I've played it several times, so it's not for lack of knowing it), I thought the characters were uninteresting, and the whole "LETS MAKE EVERYTHING ÜBER-EPIC TO THE POINT WHERE EVEN THE NPCS ARE CHEWING THE SCENERY!!!" It just wasn't the sort of thing I get into. The materia system was fun, but I like class based RPGs more.

FFIX: I thought this game was trying to straddle the old-school/new-school fence too hard. On the one hand, it had a very new-school battle system what with trance mode and equippable abilities (I don't like having to spend 5 hours on some silly sidequest just to get good abilities, for the record), but it also had a more "uh oh! villains! let's rescure the president and save the babes!" old school feel. Many people say that being medieval makes it old school. Well, for one thing, it's rennaisancey, not medieval, and for another, no it doesn't. The whole thing just came off as going in two directions at once for me, and I wasn't all that into it. The translation was really good though.

FFIV: It's not that I don't like it, it's that having completely fixed classes on characters you have no control over the presence of in the party just seems like such a huge step backwards for Final Fantasy to me. In FFI you got to choose your job. In FFIII you got to choose your job at any time. In FFII you could make any character do whatever you wanted to do, there were no jobs. FFIV not only pre-determined all your characters's jobs, but you couldn't even select between them. Couple that with the game's reluctance to let anyone's deaths be meaningful (Yang, Palom, Porom, Cid and Edward are all fine in the end), and the whole "well remember that thing that I just said was our last chance 5 minutes ago? I was lying. THIS is our last chance" story progression just rubs me the wrong way. It is fun though.

FFCC: I'm forced to side with my detractors on this one. I'm not quite sure what SE was thinking with the battle system, but it's too convoluted and slow, and there's too much necessity to repeat levels (which get harder every time you beat them). It's not that it's not fun, it's that they could have done a better job. If you want to see how much fun this game could have been, play Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures. I can't even begin to explain how much more well executed that game was.

FFMQ: I do not dislike this game. I like this game, but I DO dislike one thing in particular. The battles are all VERY easy. You can walk into a dungeon completely unprepared and pretty much just hit attack the whole time and you'll be fine. This isn't a bad thing in and of itself, but the fact that you have to fight so many of these easy battles is VERY discouraging to newbie RPG players, which is apparently who this game was designed to accomodate. The HP display as a bar was a step in the right direction, as were the graphics and music, and even the story and dialogue and jobless "you get all the magic and weapons!" system, but they really should have made the battles less numerous.
