Beyond that I feel like most opinions, even unpopular ones, are still well-represented. I think the FFTA series is better than the original, for example, but some people here actually agree with me! Same with my love of FF 2. There are a lot of different opinions here and it's pretty neat.
I absolutely adore it, for reasons I will list eventually on my games list. It'll be like 3 pages long so beware :P

I find VII vastly overrated. I don't think its a bad game by any means but I've seen so much better come from Final Fantasy. I'll never understand the hype around Cid Highwind because having gone through abuse and seeing his verbal abuse of Shera was absolutely disgusting to me and him going "Oh she was right, my bads" doesn't make up for smurfing anything. Unless they've proven he's made amends in the sequels, which I would need to see. I also find Aeris one of the worst characters, I find her very rude, and I wanted to punch her in the face in almost every scene

I thought X-2 was better than X and overall just an excellent game
