Vivi had emotions, deep thoughts and was generally a good charater. However, the rest are boring. Zidane loved Garnet? Well it was difficult to tell because he was so unintresting a character, I couldn't care. Compare him to Tidus's & Yuna love of FFX and you'll see my point.
FFVII's materia system is deep, because it was the first of it's type in the series. It was the first steps towards FFVIII's imense junction system. FFIX's is a step backwards, a system so easy, you could do it blindfolded.
Minigames were also unintresting. SKIPPING? Repetitive button bashing. So was running. The only intresting one was frog catching, but even that was marred by Quina Quen, one of the most S*** characters to ever exist.
As the style, its different. I like that, it is a look back at FFs before and so the style is a rapid departure to FFVIII's futuristic style.
As for you Kuja lovers, you can find Kuja nestling in the room at Square's HQ under "Waste Of Time". Deep. the dude is a homicidal maniac for no reason, except he wants to find his origins. So starting a war on a planet is a good reason to do that. Why didn't he find those elemental guardians, kill 'em and go Terra? Because that would be stupid. As is kuja. He is a cross dresser and probably sounds like a girl.
Battle System is next. Trance is a rubbish replacement to Limits. Because it could annoy how you'ld be saving it up and you get hurt, and have to use it againist a little creature. it should have been made optional when you select it.
I might hate FFIX, but this is my opinion. I admit, it is better than most games and I should be happy with it. But I'm not. Not to be spoilt, but it is like a poor cousin of the series, one that taints the whole family.
FFVII's system was completely simple, as simple than ff9's system. The mini-games were hard. I liked them personally. Better tahn your cut and slash cloud strife syndrome. Kuja, however, was a great villain. He DID have a reason for existance unlike you say. The reason he didnt kill the gaurdians is because he wasnt strong enough. He fought zidane to make him go into trance so he COULD defeat the gaurdains. As for being a homocidal maniac, what do you call Squall?! Kuja wanted to take over earth and revive the dead sould of Terra. About the trance systems. They were good in my opinion. You couldnt just go in and beat the heck out of a boss. That would make it too easy. The people here at EoFF here dont like FF bashing, especially from Noobs who come in to do just that. Just pick your fights. This isnt one you want to get into, because almost anybody here can prove what you say wrong.
