BEST

Story: Final Fantasy VI - lots of characters, lots of story, lots of optional stuff

Gameplay: Final Fantasy V - tons of customization

Music: Definitely VIII. Has the best overall music that I can honestly enjoy just listening to.

Main Character: Squall - despite everyone's hate for him, I find him to be the most realistic character in any of the games. The only issue is that his character development felt a bit rushed, and would have been a lot better in a longer more fleshed out game.

Villian: Kefka. I just enjoyed his character so much. The fact that he actually destroyed the world and ruled over it makes him one of the few villains to actually accomplish his goals.

Overall: I can't pick one. I normally say VI, but I actually really loved V and VIII as well.

Worst:

Story: Final Fantasy III. To be fair, I don't even really understand the story. So my other choice is Final Fantasy IV. I hate how linear it is, I hate how you can't choose a character or customize them at all (both changed in GBA/DS version but still) and I completely hate the, omg that character died! nope, they're all fine.

Gameplay: Final Fantasy II. Worst system ever.

Music: XII, because it wasn't Nobuo.

Main Character: Tidus. I just didn't like him. He didn't even end up in my "final party," which from what I can tell, is unusual for that game.

Villian: Sephiroth. He was just a crybaby. And it was all for his mommy.

Overall: II or IV. I've never beaten II, and I just don't enjoy playing IV.

IX is the only numbered game from 1-12 that I haven't played a substantial amount, and it's honestly because the game just seems to have horrid load times, and I only recently was able to start playing it. I haven't finished IX, X(X-2 as well), or XII, and clearly II, but I have finished the others.
