[I Don't Need A Name]

so whats the most underrated and overrated final fantasy

Overrated - Final Fantasy VII cos, in short, its sucks pretty bad overall
Underrated - Final Fantasy IV and VI cos no one ever notices their amazingness

[PuPu]

Overrated: Without a doubt, VII.
Underrated: IX, many VII and VIII fans dislike this game because it is similar to the Original FFs. IV is also underrated, but not VI, as many Orginal FF fans seem to like it. Which is good, because VI is awesome.

that and the fact that I feel Kitase became a better director over his career is why I vote for FFVI as the most overrated.

Most Underrated: Final Fantasy V, this game is so overlooked, mostly because the early American fans are too preoccupied with their cult worshipping of VI to realize that there may be a few games that came before it that are better.

Underrated: IX, many VII and VIII fans dislike this game because it is similar to the Original FFs.

^ are we supposed to take this seriously??? Why would 7/8 fans dislike a game b/c its similar to the originals? I started with 7 and I like every game in the series.

There's lots of truth in this. A large majority of FF fans are actually just fans of FFVII, and VIII, and X. And have never really played any of the others (Like 98% of the fans I know in real life)

Did I say YOU? No, I said "many" as in the vast majority of VII and VIII fans that are never willing to consider the fact that there are other great FF's too and probably can't even explain why they like them using more than two sentences. And because most of them I have seen on other forums also happen to dislike Originals; some of them who haven't even played Originals say something like: "originals sux, there graphics r crap".

Of what i heard about it, FFXI have a great story with good characters(NPCs) and each game have an "end"(they even have final bosses). But it's online, and many people choosed not to play the game because of that. Hell, some people even think that it cannot be considered a FF.
FFXI is the most underrated game in the series by far.

The reason many people don't play it isn't because its online, more that it costs 10 bucks a month and requires a larger dedication then any of the other games to even get into the story. I played the game for a month and never got really far into the story, then I realized I didn't have a way to pay 10 bucks and stopped playing, haven't played since.

Overrated : FFVII, do I really need to explain myself on this one?
Underrated : FFIX, most FF fans who started with VII and VIII hated it.

It doesn't mater. The game is still good, you having to pay for it or not. But many people think that because it's online, it doesn't have a good story, any good character, and it don't have an end. They are wrong of course.

In the moment that people begin to question "This game can be considered part of the main series?", that means the game is completely underrated. FFXI is like any other FF. A group of heros in a magic world trying to save it of a greate evil(or more than one). It have a good story, bosses, cutscenes, FMVs, final boss, etc.
