FF8- Abunch of retarted teenagers who are so dumb they cant remember they went to the same orphanage.
FF9-....Youre kiddin right AHAHAHAHAHA
FFTactics-The story of a young man who saves Ivalica etc. never gets remembered for it and still somehow comes off as a badass medieval knight.

Also, I don't understand why certain people can't just respond to the question without bashing other games in the process. That's just annoying. The question isn't "what Final Fantasy games do you hate?"

All of you poor sheep that played FF7 first and put it SOMEHOW ahead of FFVI I feel sorry for you. Aside from its graphics I can't find a SINGLE thing about VII better than VI. Kefka is by FAR a more devious and colorful boss. The overall storyline other than an occasional needless Flashback maintains itself better than VII which had many things that IMHO could have been left out with little or no effect on the game at all. VII in simple terms was not as fulfilling an RPG to get continual play value out of as VI is. The RPG purists here will agree with me and you poor souls who found FF VII as your first ever RPG will be left wanting.

Yeah, I didn't read all of that rant. I just couldn't. But this thread never asked for why people liked the game they did. It just ask what was the best. If you want to find the reasons why people think the way they do. Read the thread in FF8 "FF7 vs. FF8".

People cant constantly come up with new reasons why FFVII is a great game, I think most hold the same reasons. And I can assure you they arent because it was the first Mass-Advertised FF. I dont see how someone could stand up and say FFVII is the best because It appeared on TV. I think most ( I being one of them ) like FFVII the most because it was flipping more right switches than wrong. The Game was good. Very Good.

What I meant by the mass-advertised was that it was the first RPG put out there on a HUGE scale to the American public and MOST people *me included* have VERY strong ties to the first RPG they ever play. For me it was FFI beaten when I was 9 granted the elder cousins did a little aiding, but I can live with that. It took a GREAT game in FFVI to make me put FFI down to second spot in my FF Hall of Fame. FFVII is in a tie for third with FFII since I have finally played through it and love the different challenges it poses. Always KEY to my rating of a FF.

The first one I played isn't my favorite as of right now, but I'm waiting for a Final Fantasy that might top it. The reason 7 was so "mass" advertised was because it was the first onto the playstation (which made Final Fantasy more mainstream) and did really well in the U.S. I see where you're coming from with the FF1 and FF6 though.

My thoughts exactly

To me FF VIII and IX had deeper stories, more comical, more FOCUSED, well GUIDED, you felt the story around you.

In FFVII...............it was all about looks and Sephiroth...........and looks again......and the skills and weapons they had. That game was really more about the fighting system and enemies rather than the story. Anyway it's vague and badly GUIDED game. Too many times you feel like there's NOTHING going on

Setzer Gabianni and Llanowar stop trolling this thread.

And I say Final Fantasy Tactics by an extremely large margin.

The battle style requires a great deal of strategy and tactics (hence the name) and is far better than any other Final Fantasy where everyone just lines up on opposite sides of the battle and smacks each other until one side falls down.

Tactics allows for area of effect spells and charge time, both of which make the combat system that much more in-depth and enjoyable. Unlike most Final Fantasy games, it's not an easy game to play through, you're actually required to think and experiment.

The story is also amazing and well-done. It's compelling, deep, and explores both fantastical and medieval political aspects of a well-developed society quite well.

I'm not even going to bother arguing with the people spouting outright BS about FFVII in this thread because it's done so often that there's no point in pointing it out any more. It's popular to hate what's popular, but when it comes right down to it, sucess determines a game's worth, and FFVII was the most sucessful. You can say it sucks and it's not the best, but which FF got a movie sequel made to it? Which FF has an online cellphone spinoff, another for PS2, and another for PSP in production? Yeah, there you go. I mean it may not be the best to you, but the closest we can come to making an absolute statement of fact on how "good" or "bad" a piece of work is is by it's sucess, making FFVII win by default.

As far as why I think FFVII is the best...well, I thought it had the best storyline as far as making me know the characters. FFVII just developed it's characters well to the point that I got to know them and absorbed all their background info right after my first playthrough. Also, it had probably the greatest range of side quests in any rpg I've played. The main baddie was awesome (just because Kefka was more evil, sadistic, and actually suceeded in destroying the world doesn't make him better in my eyes), and I have no explination as to why...I just liked him. I liked just about all the characters and their relationships with other characters, and I freaking loved the limit break/materia system. Materia, unlike most of the other games, was a system that actually tied right into the storyline, which just made it so much more awesome.

I can tell you first hand the order you played them in doesn't determine your order of favorites. Yeah I played FFVII first, and VI second, but I even like X more than VI. Even IV more than VI. I just don't think it's THAT good in comparison to the others, but I do think it's a great game, don't get me wrong. I just think it's throwing in as many characters as possible with absolutely no story to over half of them was a big weakness.

I didn't vote VII in this thread, even though I think it's the best.

There's a big difference between holding a gigantic active drooling fanbase of millions to the point of releasing a movie and new game spinoffs in all forms and profiting big from it nearly a decade later and just selling well.

My reasons:

a) FFI started it all. If it weren't for the success of I, all of the other FF games wouldn't exist.

b) It was years ahead of its time when it was made. Compare it to Dragon Warrior - the other major RPG on the NES, a relatively short hack-and-slash game that had little in the way of balance or gameplay - and you get the idea of how good FFI actually was.

c) It was the best game of its time and the best game to ever come out for the 8-bit NES (yes, even better than Mario 3).

d) It was a game. Some of the modern FF's feel more like interactive movies, where you watch a ten minute cutscene, move your party around for a couple minutes, fight a battle, watch another ten minute cutscene... repeat ad nauseum. You were playing a game in FFI, not the other way around.

e) FFI's combat system has been copied by countless other games and has only really been tweaked since then. They knew what they were doing back then and they did it well. It had inventory management, party-based-combat, and story and character development (well, at least for the NPCs) back before those were all standard in RPGs.

Many of the other FF iterations were good, but they had to build of the first. Final Fantasy I, for what it did and when it did it, is the best of the series, and it will forever be difficult to top.

I just love how EVERY SINGLE PERSON who seems to claim it as the greatest game ever site the exact same few reasons as the huddled masses be4 them. I am sorry to say but a few good qualities in an RPG and repeating those a million times do not make it a great game. I have played through it and beaten it however I don't like ppl treating it like an RPG mecca simply because it was the first Mass-Advertised "Television, Radio, Internet, Etc." that everyone played and base all judgements of other games OFF of it as the Gold-standard of RPG's. I have heard countless ppl on this site bash other FF's simply because they aren't done like VII was. I have one last thing to say. GO ADLAI STEVENSON!!

hey, we're all free for opinions, but don't try to judge other people thats just wrong. seriously man, you need to get a life!

My favorite FF is of course 7 reasons WHY (this is for you Llanowar)

1.Great characters

2.Great story

3.Great Music

4.Great strategy (like materia)

5.Tearjerker

6.just plain great!

My favourite is FFVIII as I found it very easy to connect with the characters.

Very true. FFVII people always talk crap about how 7 is the best and 8 sucks. This is obviously because they cannot come to terms with the fact that VIII went well above and beyond 7 is every possible way. Sorry, but 8 is the best. l o l

I voted for 4 as that one is too memorable in my mind...

Im surprised at how many votes X-2 got. Its usually one of the lesser acclaimed FF titles. :mog:

Also, besides FF 2 and 5, which i thought were just average, i think every FF could easily be #1.

It had no main character, you had to come upwith his name. I bought Final Fantasy Anthology and played both discs. Final Fantasy VI is way better than Final Fantasy V!

X I feel is by far the best game, followed shortly by IX. I haven't really connected with any of the others that I've played, other than X-2 because of it being related to X, but that is not very high in my favourite FF's either.

Well, I'm quite torn. I'm unable to find any clear cut answer, but I went with Tactics because it has taken more of my time than any other FF games, so it can't be all bad.

I'm not feeling well at the moment, so I can't really explain too well why I chose what I chose and all that, but I'll post here again when I'm feeling better.

YEs, but people praising stupid games can get anoying too. Imagine having some one running around saying, "OMFg Tetris is the Shiznet! Those blocks start moving so fast its like OMG I can't see. And the colors are sweet! Its friggin action packed and intenso you!"

An exageration, yes. But entertaining to read. And yes, i think tetris is stupid.

Back on topic I think nine, though its tied for six. I will vote nine for it doesn't get enough love IMO.

I played all Final Fantasy from I to X.(I didn't finish them all, of course. I only finished I, II, IV and almost VI.)

I voted for Final Fantasy VI. Why? It is simply the best. Oh right, now people are going to ask, why? Again.
Well, teh answer is simply. It had the deepest storyline of them all, the BEST villain EVER (Kefka just rules.) Nice music (gotta love the Opera House Ultros fight.) Humor (Kefka or Ultros funny lines, anybody?). A nice refeshment of the battles. (Learning magic by equiping summons, pretty cool, if you ask me.)

Another reason is that it has no main character. That's pretty cool as well.
One moment Terra would lead, then again Celes, or Locke, or anybody.
All characters each had also their own background story. (Most of them quite touching. Like, say, Shadow?)
All characters could learn all magic or equip a very good Esper. In other FF, they are limitted because of their class. Say goodbye to it in VI!

So, all by all, Final Fantasy VI is the best.
Although Final Fantasy I comes pretty close, to. Nothing can beat the classic that started it all (except vor VI :p ).
Final Fantasy IV comes third. (It has the best Final Boss thme in my opinion.)

You heard it right folks! FF VII is nowhere on my top list! Why's that? Simply, the game is not good. And I don't want to start argumenting. This is my opinion. I won't say a game is good because it has "Sephirot!" in it. Or a guy with a big sword. So, no, I don't think FF VII deserves the title of the best ever. Although the votes say otherwise. :(
I really would like to know what's so good about VII, aside from Sephiroth!!!. A reason all VII-fans agree on.
Yeah, that would be nice. :)

/blatent lies/ My favorite BY FAR was Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest!!!! The tools you would have to use to get through each dungeon (which you got in that specific dungeon) just added a complete new level to Final Fantasy that I've never experienced with the other FF games! /end blatent lies/

Anyway, I picked Final Fantasy VI. I was having problems deciding between VI and IX. I've noticed that a lot of people are sectioned off in the games. People who like FFVII love FFX. Those who love Final Fantasy I-VI love FFIX. It's interesting.

I voted IX, but you should have let us vote for two or three. IX was the best in every way. It had the best story, characters, and battle system. I would have picked tactics, but hey, IX all the way! I don't see why everyone likes VII so much. It was so kiddy and immature. Cloud kept saying corny lines and was whining all the time. How do people think Cloud is the coolest? AC made him cool, but he was a dweeb in VII.

I think VI has grown on me enough that I like it just as much.

FFVII's crap, those fanboys will never give up the first time they saw a 3D FF.

There's nothing really special 'bout FFVII
-Crappy (huh?) kind of ending, nothing's going on, nothing really happens between Cloud and Tifa, nothing happens with Barret, Cait Sith ain't even in it, boring and dull.

-Yuffie is never portrayed very well, she steals things, but doesn't do anything important after the stealing scenes.

-TOO many vague character

-FFVII is ONLY 'bout Cloud and Sephiroth:laugh:

I feel Final Fantasy VIII is THE BEST by far!!! I'm really not in the mood to type out a whole long speech cuz I pretty much stated all my reasons why I adore it in previous threads. But it basically comes down to this:

~ I felt SOOO much emotion during the game, I can't even describe it. :kaolove2: I could play that game a million times and never get tired of it, and feel the same emotion and passion everytime. :kaolove:

~ I REALLY liked the story and characters!!! :kaohappy2

~ It was the 1st Final Fantasy I ever played, so it has a special place in my heart. :heart: :kaolove2:
