Never played it myself and the fanfare seems to have died down.
This is my favorite RPG of all time, and thus my favorite Square game.

Granted, I haven't played nearly as many RPGs as most of you guys, so I may not be making a fair assessment here. But Super Mario RPG has been my favorite for years.

Re: OP's discussion about people making sweeping assumptions about FF (yes, I know this post is from April ) - this happens with pretty much any popular series; it's a resentment issue. If, say, FFVI had been unattached to the series, I bet all the haters would be showering it with accolades.
