    The only ones that actually have complicated stories are those with Ultimania guides. After all, the Ultimania guides were created for people who don't understand the stories.

    Or because Tetsuya Normura was allowed near the story

    ...I still don't get why 10 is winning.

    Gross injustice.

    I thought FFX got complicated towards the end, and sometimes it still confuses me!
    I think FFV's storyline was very easy to understand except for (SPOILER)Exdeath somehow being a tree.

    For some reason I voted for IX. I feel like the older ones do have a lot of convoluedness to them like a villain being a tree, some chicks mom getting it on with a Phantom Beast, the Emperor having tournaments for a princess who got stolen bya balloon, and then he becomes SATAN!?

    I think IX was pretty straight forward, butnow that I think about it, there are some confusing elements like the Genomes and Mages...

    About Exdeath
    (SPOILER) Exdeath is a tree because Euno was sealed in the forest of Moore after he was defeated. He was so evil and had magic so potent that he turned the tree hw was sealed in evil as well, and it eventually came what we know as Exdeath

    This is never mentioned in the original version of Final Fantasy V. Enuo defeats himself because the void engulfs him (what an idiot - he is immortal and then he trades it for a power he cannot control). However, X-Death "himself" is not a tree - he was born out of it - and of course he is part of the tree, blablabla, he can turn into a tree and a twig, et cetera...but X-Death himself is a fusion of evil souls sealed in the tree.

    And that's why the void turns him into a mega chimera as Neo X-Death. Because it is the fusion of evil souls - X-Death's true form, like Ghido/Gill mentions.

    And often people make some mistakes because they think the void, the cleft of dimensions/the rift and the great tree of moore are all the same. But it is not.

    This reminds me of how little sense FF5 made to me and how I mostly just played it for the gameplay. Guess I'll have to give it another chance someday.

    No Final Fantasy is 100 % logical.

    After all Final Fantasy (I) is easy to understand, Final Fantasy III is easy to understand, Final Fantasy IV is easy to understand and Final Fantasy XII is easy to understand as well.

    It seems everyone who hasn't commented has voted for FF10, now I'm thinking they're just doing it to annoy me.

    FFI easy to understand? I think not. That (SPOILER)time loop throws a lot of people for a loop (no pun intended).

    Yeah FFI had an overly basic plot if you ask me. The time loop works because it's so simple, if you think about it too hard then it starts to not make sense. :P

    What did you find so complicated about FFX?

    The whole (SPOILER)Tidus not actualy existing and just being the dream of an extinct civilization.
    OOC:Lol, when writing that I just thought of a Star Trek episode with computer generated characters escaping the holodeck.


    The plot for the most part was very straight forward, not a lot of twists and turns. But that one thing is something that requires a greater deal of cognitive power to understand than anything in the SNES eara.
    A lot more stuff happened in the SNES games, but that was all stuff that was easy to understand.
