Best Final Fantasy game?

[Egomaniacal1]

There is no one best FF.

I got 7, 8 and 10 as my favorites for different reasons. 7 took the summoning animations to a whole new level and had the best story, 8 i LOVED the gunblade system and the military type story both of which were new and fresh at the time, 10 put it all together the best for me...the summoning animations, hell the graphics overall were top notch, and i loved the junctioning system as well as the story.

If you love Chrono Trigger, you'll probably like FF6.

As far as I'm concerned, 6 has by far the best cast of characters in the franchise. Nearly all of them are likable and they all receive very good balanced character development (except maybe 2 characters), which is kinda impressive considering the number of characters there are. Story is solid too. A lot of genuinely touching moments. Villains are cool too. Kefka man, fukking Kefka.

Gameplay is classic FF status, although nowadays the random enemy encounter can be a little bit annoying. The music of course is as brilliant as the other entries. Good designs and graphics that have aged fairly well.

All in all, I really recommend you play this game. I think FF7 takes alot of elements from FF6. I also think you can't call yourself a FF fan until you at least play:

4
6
7
9
10
12





Also, as far as FF7 being overrated...I kinda agree. It's the game that got me into RPG's but there have been RPG's just as good or better before and after. It also hasn't aged all that well. As far as the best JRPG's I've ever played this is my top tier list(no order):

-Chrono Trigger
-Xenoblade Chronicles (this is so damn good)
-The World Ends With You
-Xenogears (if it wasn't for Square not having enough money and being able to have an actual fukking 2nd disc this would probably be the goat)
-Super Mario RPG
-FF6
-Pokemon

Next tier would be:
-FF7,4,10
-Tales of Phantasia
-Star Ocean
-Radiant Historia
-Secret of Mana
-Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2 just about),
-Chrono Cross (probably best game soundtrack ever, although it kinda took a shyt on Chrono Triggers characters so that kinda pisses me off)

I wish Sony had a program where you could download these games for free if you show proof of owning the physical copy. Would love to put 7, 8 & 9 on my Vita.

Xenogears........fukk square for not finishing Xenogears........

Final Fantasy VI is the best imo. That game was really the crowning jewel in making Super Nintendo the GOAT console, like when that game drop nikkas was like
