People can not like FFVII, I just find it hard to believe that anyone who has played the majority of the series can consider it their least favorite. If you prefer the old school FFs then why would you dislike VII more than XIII? Or if you like the super shiny graphic games why prefer II over VII? It's the literal midpoint of the series right now so for anything you dislike about it chances are it was done worse in another game.

Come now Del, VII is toward my bottom of lists of FFs as well, while I can't say I hate the game, it leaves much to be desired for me cause I can't stand the cast (my least favorite cast) and the second disc is poorly written imho. Not to mention I found game balance goes out the window midway through it. Really, I just wasn't that impressed and parts of the game have not aged well since then. I feel these are pretty legitimate reasons not to like a game, I find it baffling when people hate on III, IV, VI, and IX but people have different taste. Go figure.
