Do you think FF6 is the best Final Fantasy? Why or why not?

[Ishin Ookami]

If Sephiroth had a legitimate reason for his evil, he'd be totally AWESOME, but he doesn't.

That's why I liked him, cuz he did - He was used as a science experiment and drugged and puppetted around pretty much to have justification for his anger and resentment for the world he was born into.

Hey, I can understand something like that triggering one hell of an identity crisis, but it's hardly grounds for attempting (and failing, which is why he's pretty far behind in my list of cool FF villains, behind Kefka, Kuja, and Sin) to unleash a global Armageddon.

As to whether FFVI is THE best there is, best there was, best there ever will be... I can't really say. I rank it just as highly as I do FFX (why all the hate? so nomura watched one soft core porn too many while designing the characters, at least the story was great) and FFIX. I just can't bring myself to say it is superior, or inferior to those other FF legends. It would be like my choosing a favorite child.

I will say that man, I love Kefka. He's definitely the coolest FF villain. The opera theme can give me chills to this day, as can so many of the themes. The characters were great, so was the story, and the battle system. It's an all around awesome title.

I don't want to come off as a sakaguchi fanboy, So I will give my respects to FFVII. It's a great title, just not THAT great. and call me petty but I have issues with Nomura's bahamut designs. I mean what is up with his fascination with splicing the king of dragons with a chicken? But yah, FFVII is definitely one of the better of the later generation Final Fantasy titles.

I found it to be too challenging. I like VII and IX better.

FF9 was better just because quina was in it

FF6 is a decent fairy tale styled game. I do not compare it to the later Final Fantasies because the plots exist in different genres, except FF9 which has the same style. I think I am pretty indifferent to FF6. Mostly I find it predictable, but I expected that in the first ten minutes of game play. It is a nice introduction to rpg's for a pre-adolescent.

I don't think it's the best. I just can't get right into the game like I can with the later ones and some of the earlier ones. I just don't like the main characters and really don't care what happens to them.
