Quote Pyramid Doom, but it's a pretty good summary of how I feel on the matter.

I asked for FFVII and got it for my 16th birthday. That was in 1999. It was my first FF, and it remains my solid favourite. I've played all the numbered Final Fantasies from IV to XII, and enjoyed each to a certain extent. It's just that none, in my opinion, has rivalled VII for the complexity and diversity of the characters, and the complexity and diversity of the plot, which borrows from all my favourite genres and combines them into something epic

I neither ask nor expect others to agree, and I often understand and even share the oft-cited criticisms of FFVII. And its fanbase. Anyone who thinks Cloud is a good hero because of his strength and his huge sword is missing the point, just like anyone who feels that Sephiroth is a good villain because he's 'teh uber kwel badass'.
