There are a lot of JRPG fans around these parts. Is FF your favorite or is there another series closer to your heart? What is it, if so?

It's really the only JRPG series I am heavily invested in, so, despite its flaws, I can never let Final Fantasy go.
Yes, FFVII is my favorite JRPG ever.
When I think JRPG, I think Final Fantasy, so yeah.
MegaTen and all it's spinsoffs take my number one spot. But Final Fantasy does share a close number 2 with Tales and Neptunia.
Final Fantasy is my favorite, and it's the only JRPG series I like these days. Unless we're counting Kingdom Hearts as a JRPG series separate from FF, then I like that one as well, but I personally don't consider it a JRPG or entirely separate from the FF blitzkrieg.
It's a shame Lost Odyssey didn't turn into a series. That's the last non-FF JRPG that I really liked.
I hold the Breath of Fire series in equal regard. I'm also quite partial to Luner: Silver Star Story Complete. but slightly less so.
The MegaTen series is by far definitely my favorite series ever, so Final Fantasy isn't my number 1, but it's in my top 5!
For me Breath of Fire is close, but FF wins for being my first JRPG.
I think overall I prefer MegaTen and Kingdom Hearts, but FF is still very dear to my heart!
A lot of people like killing Patrick Stewart's head it seems.
FF is pretty much the only JRPG series I've played, unless we count Xenosaga. Well I guess there's also Star Ocean. But since my experience with that series is one okay game and the worst JRPG I've ever played, it's not really a competition with FF.

I'd suggest Breath of Fire 2. It's a great JRPG that was very unique. That game holds as one of my favorite over many of the FF'sQuote:

Yes, it's my favorite. I've played a few other games here & there from other series & have liked them, but FF is by far my favorite.
Yes but Tales and Suikoden come close
Yup, although MegaTen, Tales, Mana, and Grandia are p great too.
I don't know anymore...
Well there aren't that many JRPG series that are as long running, certainly not in the west. There's Tales and Dragon Quest I guess but a lot of those haven't been localized or have been much lower budget affairs.
Final Fantasy is probably the only JRPG series (that I can think of) that's been AAA for the last 20 years or so. Right?
I'm another Megaten series lover. I cannot say I've bothered ranking them beyond that definite first, but Final Fantasy would probably come in second place if I did.
>>> Series? Yeah.
Game? nope..:luca:
