Me. I think FFVIII is the worst game in the series, but it's not because of the futuristic setting.

Or at least, the worst of all the FF I have played and beat, which is all of them saved for FFX, FFX-2, FFXI, FFTA, and FFCC.

Meh, I agree with the author on some points, but disagree with most. Oh well, it's a matter of opinion.
