IX and X go up for the worst places to live. There are no care to get around and in X during the events of X you had to live in fear every ten years when a demonic whale that's the size of a football stadium ressurrects itself.

I agree with out of the ones I've played VIII's probably isn't the worst. I'd have to go with VI though man. man would I hate to have been Cid on that deserted island with Celes.
