I struggled the most with FF Tactics, but if you mean real Final Fantasy games, I would say FFIV.
I think FFIV OR I
But FFIV is my thrird favourite FF Game, Damn good.....
The NES Verions of FFI was REALLY hard at the beggining, but maybe its because I didn't know I had to buy AND Equip the items...
I dunno, I found tactics medium difficulty throughout without a ton of difficulty (chocobos beasted), I found FFIX hardest cause I never took the time to get a 9999 move, and Ozma was (and is as I have never killed it) incredibly hard. Also it was just harder overall. I dunno, didn't do very well with the battle system in that. FFVII-FFX-2 is otherwise not too difficult...
Hardest FF's? I'ld have to say tactics just for the over all-ness of it's hardity. And how it seemed the AI would seem to cheat all the time and absolutly slaughter me. Granted my tactics for every fight was go in with melee and stab the pointy ends of our sticks into the bad guys.
Although I would have to say FFII NES was also a very hard game. Granted it was laughably easy once you learned the glitches to level yourself up with, but till your stats are really high you just get beat up so badly. On top of that the the final dungeon was utter hell. Took me 2 tries through to finally make it to the end with everyone alive and a good amount of elixers and ethers in my inventory. Not to mention the inventory was horrible, nothing stacked, and half your inventory was filled with key items by the end of the game, makes for a very limited selection of what to bring to the final battle.
But I would have to say FFXI is a very very VERY difficult game. Considering all it takes for an entire BCNM party to wipe, is one mistake for some fights. On top of finding people with some common sense, let alone decent skills can be hard at times (Dark Knight trying to out hate a Paladin on purpose anyone >.<) Also some of the missions in the game are pretty damn hard at times, I only shudder now at the thought of what's after Promys and waiting to eat me in the Aquaducts T_T.
But ya those are my top 3 hardest FF's in no particular order.
all the 3D ones are p!$$ easy.....
Me too.Quote:

Actually, I found that battle quite easy. Now, the battle right before it was a battle of difficulty so nigh-impossible that through a strange and unfortunate set of circumstances which I will not go into now, I was forced to replay the entire game just to be able to beat it.Quote:

Never played the NES version of FF1, but have beat it many times on the Origins version... Easy mode is waaaaaaay tooo easy though.
Ive yet to completely finish 6... I got to the last tower, and had a friend borrow the CD, and got it back later when interested in other games.
Beat 7 over upside and down, many times.
Beat 8 like .... erm... it was medium difficulty the first time... more recent playings of it have it being beaten utterly easily, even Omega to an extent.
Beat 9 pretty easily, some hard points but overly easy.
Tactics was just.... the depth of the game is crazy.
There were very hard points if you didnt have proper characters.... and if you leveled early, random battles were MUCH harder than boss battles.
After Tactics, id say 6 or 1.... 7, 8, 9 werent that hard for me compared to 6 and 1.
Oh, and I'm back :)
ff4 is really hard haven.t beaten it yet:eep: :eep: :eep: but ok i just staded 2 days ago:D ff6 is hard to:D
Yeah, that fight is very hard, and the fight before that (when Ramza fights alone) is just as hard. I didn't have Auto-Potion when I first went to that fight so I had to go and level up Ramza some more. Fortunately I had an earlier save before Riovanes so I didn't have to restart the whole game. The fight after that (at the roof) can end as your loss even before you get a single move if your speed stats are low, though I leveled up my speed stats so much that I won the battle in less than a minute.Quote:

FFIV was the toughest FF for me. I played the hard type, and I also played it on the fastest speed. I thought that just makes the waiting times shorter, but I didn't realise it makes the game so much harder since the enemies will move so quickly - for example, Zeromus casts 1-2 Big Bangs in one turn on the fastest speed (ouch!) whereas he casts about 2 Big Bangs in 3 turns. It was almost impossible to beat Zeromus on levels below 60 on the fastest speed, and still very hard on levels 58-62. On normal speed, you'll be fine on level 55+. Though it's not just Zeromus, the other monsters also take a long time to kill and they hit you hard and fast.
Tie between FF4 ad Tactics.
Wiegraff for example I've had two friends restart the game because
of that battle, and many many other annnoying boss (even random battles
from over-training!)
Then, the mother of all f Green Hell's hell...Final Fantasy 4 Hardtype.
God there is no slack in that game. Random battles every four steps and you
have to over-train so much just for one boss and then the next would be even more
harder for more over-training. There is only two ways to buy Ethers and Elixers.
There is only one shop in the world to sell them and they are very expensive.
Elixers are a pain in the butt to buy for 120Thousand each, and then comes
Bahamut and Odin which are stronger than the last boss, and way way too fast
and powerful. Once you've beaten them you are able to summon them,
but you wasted that time proving you can beat something stronger than a
big red mass than can end the Universe countless times with a couple lightning
bolts. Then you feel wasteful after you realize you wasted time.
Waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste,
waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, spam, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste,
waste, waste, spam, waste, waste, waste, waste, waste, spam, waste, waste, waste, waste,.
The hardest FF is FF1 cause it is too easy to get lost and villagers don't know anything.
I can see how the nes games could be the hardest. The last dungeon of ff2 has more doors than it does treasure chests, and it's hard staying alive from most encounters anyways, so I just got to where I ignored most doors xD
of course I was playing on an emu too, so I could just reload, and I did, alot.
