I played it, beat the game and don't remember anything about it except Vivi, the ending sequence was like 10 mins long and I couldnt' tell if Kuja was boy or girl. Probably the most forgettable FF for me.
FF8 was the worst IMO cuz it had one of the dopest weapons (gunblade) but a douchebag for main character, Squall. Ultimecia was a joke and all the characters were trash. Nothing memorable about any one of them. The only FF I didn't even bother to finish
I feel the same way you do about 8 and 9.I played it, beat the game and don't remember anything about it except Vivi, the ending sequence was like 10 mins long and I couldnt' tell if Kuja was boy or girl. Probably the most forgettable FF for me.

I liked 9 a lot, but it never fully grabbed me. All of the characters are likeable, but I only really felt emotionally connected to Vivi, and to a lesser extent Dagger and Zidane. I just really felt like most of the characters were one-dimensional and lacked depth. Also, Kuja wasn't a very interesting villain--he was just a crazy nikka who was insecure and shyt, so he decided to prove his superiority by taking shyt over. Basically, he was every villain ever, and had nothing unique about him that strayed from the archetype. Fun game to play, though, and each character is fun to use in their own way, and I like the ability system.
I didn't really like 8. To me, it had its moments (mainly the first disc), but at no point did I really feel like I cared about beating Ultimecia. I mean, there were a few points where I said to myself, "damn, that's a bad ass chick, AND she got some legit points--I'd probably switch sides." The battle system sucked for me and was tedious, and with RPGs you're spending half of the 50-70 hours of playtime in battles, so if the battle system sucks, the story better be REALLY good to make me want to continue (as is the case in FFX). Well the story wasn't that good and Squall wasn't very interesting, and I'm not really sure what Rinoa saw in the dude other than he was was pretty, had a big sword, and made a lot of money. In the end, I didn't beat it, mainly because I didn't realize that when the worlds merged that I wouldn't be able to get out to buy some god damn items. And for me to play over the last 5 hours from a different save file, just to make sure I could stock up on items before the last dungeon and its ridiculous bosses, I said fukk it, and never touched it again. Let's put it this way--I thought Shadowhearts and Shadowhearts: Covenant were better than FF8, and those games weren't even that good either.
Honorable mention: Final Fantasy Tactics. GOAT political storyline in a game.
Also, has one of the hardest non-cheap boss fights of any RPG/strategy game. Weigraf/Velius. How many people had to start over because of Riovanes castle. The battle at the gates was hard cuz of the fukking archers who'd fukk you up before you could reach them. Elmdor was hard with his stupid assassins and Rafa who thinks she's Rambo, running all up into the fray, giving no fukks, despite the fact that she sucks. But Weigraf/Velius. First of all, Weigraf one-on-one is hard as shyt. But Velius...with Cyclops and short-charge, and his minions who cast that Dark Holy spell, and the area of effect flare spell...beating that fight without skill grinding to get ready for it, is damn near impossible.
I remember the first time I beat Weigraf and was feeling nice...then Velius came out, and crushed the buildings in like three turns. My world ended, lol. First time I beat dude was probably the most satisfying win I've had in any game, ever--I even lost a character PERMANENTLY (crystal death), and said "fukk it I ain't resetting and fighting dude again...I can train another lancer" cuz dude was THAT hard.
Final thing...Delita, started from the bottom...and became king AND got all the credit in the history books for ending the war. Dude played the game of thrones masterfully.

Shining Force III and that Fire Emblem on gamecube shyt on tactics
FFT storyline was like a damn Shakespeare play. The best thing to do is go to Amazon and get the Prima strategy guide. Whatever levels you told to be at, be at least 10 higher.
What I do at the beginning of every game, I train Ramza, etc., to be at least 10 levels higher than what the strategy guide says. I be at level 15 before reach Dorter Trade city the first time. Go to random battles in Mandalia plains and learn the basic job classes like chemist, knight, thief, and accumulate JP and gil to buy more phoenix downs and potions. Then the Story battles be easy as fukk when you 10 levels above your enemies.
For chapter 1, Let Ramza be a Knight and go to random battles with him and his core team. Build him up and make sure he learns accumulate strength +1, Gained JP Up, and Move + 1 from Squire job class before you become the knight. Then in every turn, he can use the accumulate job ability and build his experience points along with jp. Make sure his team builds up with him too, like the Chemists and their abilities to learn Phoenix down, the warriors learn that too, and so on. You should have 2 Chemists in the building up session and make Ramza have "Item" as his secondary ability. One of your other offense/ warriors should be an archer to build up jp points to have access to thief class. Once you learn several abilities from the Knight class, temporarily make Ramza into a thief and make him learn Move +2, steal gil, and steal weapon, steal armor, and so forth. Make his Guts ability into the secondary ability temporatly and use accumulate or steal gil constantly to build his jp points and build his jp to purchase those abilities. Once you real level 5 thief for Ramza you should have 1200 jp to buy Move + 2 and to learn steal weapon and steal armor. Once you do, turn Ramza back to Knight and build him up, with the rest of your team, to have numerous abilities in the Thief Class. Have you other warrior into a thief and let him stay there for a while so everyone benefits getting jp for the theif class.
May be overwhelming, but at least you have mad gil, jp, higher levels, and so on before you reach Dorter Trade City in chapter 1. Make sure before you end chapter 1 with being over level 30 for all your team members
By Chapter 2, automatically switch Ramza back to a Squire, cause by then, they can equip heavy armor and shields like a knight. On top of having Move + 2 from the thief class in his move ability, and the gained JP up, On top of his Cuts ability. You be moving all up and down the battle field with no problem (Move 6 on the battle field is
) and you be super strong. 
I got more strategies for FFT for anyone that wants them.

You realize that what you just said is pretty much the exact opinion that people have of gamers who say FF7 is their favorite.

On a side note, it seems I definitely lost not playing ff tactics. Is it on psn?
10 had a plot twist? What that whole dream of the fayth thing?So why exactly were you going on about ff10's plot twist again?
Look at the last line of your own post bruh
Honestly 10 probably has the most batshyt crazy plot of any game ever. dude's kingdom was gonna be destroyed by a more technologically advanced one so he had some people run up in a cave and dream up an alt version of it then he used magic wrap himself in armor and oppress the world and keep its state of tech low and keep them dreaming it forever.
