      I understand FFTA is your favorite. But it has nothing on the OG FFT. Just saying. The first two chapters of FFTA is actually really good. To me they just stacked too many rules on it. Kinda my stand point in Triple triad. Love that card game in the first three regions. After that it got too stupid. Found myself headed back to the first region to reset the rules just to make it enjoyable. Problem is you can’t do that in FFTA. Just saying

    I’m blown away. When I bought 13 I was probably about 15-18, and I loathed the game. Every single equipment being the same model and simply a reskin was incredibly underwhelming, the combat was alright, and the linearity made it an absolute slog that I quit within the first 20 hours.

      Similar experience for me. 13 was the first Final Fantasy game I didn't play to completion and walked away from it unfinished. It was a little of everything that bothered me. The story was hard to follow, I hated the characters except the guy with the chocobo in his afro and Vanille, the first part of the game just dragged on too long before the world opens up, the bootleg sphere grid wasn't a good progression system. Most importantly, I hated the combat system. Some years later, I did try to give it another shot and actually finish the game. I tried my best even reading all the lore stuff. I still hated it.

    10 is my fav. 7 is second. I was the perfect age when 7 dropped I dropped so much time into it as a older teen. I know a lot of it is tied to nostalgia. 6 is my 3rd fav. 8 I never finished until a couple years ago because when I first played it I wanted all the cards and dropped all my time into getting the cards. So it is one of my least fav too many bad memories.

    Hey! New to the channel community. I have seen you on some other UA-camr videos and wanted to hop by as I am also a huge JRPG fan. It was fun hearing your thoughts. I am a big FF collector as well. I have actually not played 12 yet but based on what you both stated, it is high on my list to play this year now. I actually enjoy political intrigue in stories so I loved 16's story but would not call it an RPG. I also just got around to playing 15 this year with the Royal Edition and would rank it at a B. I enjoyed it. The story was straight forward but I had fun with it. It also sounds like I should give 13 a good try even though I am in the boat of people that heard it sucks. Thanks for the videos!

I played FFXIV at PaxEast and fell in love with the controller controls (I only play on console outside of my WoW attempt) and the characters and story hooked me like other ff games. It doesn’t require time like I think we think mmos do, designed that way to be able to jump in jump out. Anyway, I must sound like a seller of the game haha it’s just great!

      Favorite so far VII. The first I've ever played. Only made it up to VIII for now, which is honestly the worst so far. The pixel games were fine but nothing special for me. The only exception is VI. Just started playing it today and I'm having a blast. Didn't expect it to be that good aftre being disappointed by I-V. For now it's the second best. But I still have to go through quite a lot of FF games before making a final ranking. What I can say for sure though is that VI and VII are the only ones that are good enough to be worth replaying. At least in my opinion.

    On the other hand some of the mistakes you made with the games you knew less did put me out of the video.
    The Zemus/Zeromus stuff, airships which were all in 1-3, summoners which did start in 3, there was no magicite in VII etc.
    I know there is no soul that knows everything but that's a bit too much mistakes for a tier list. And I am even not a hardcore fan :) but this is just my boomer talking, overall nice work ;)

I think a bit of the context was edited out mistakenly as well (the original cut was over 1.5 hours long 😵‍💫) Either way, we're okay with making some mistakes, it makes us human. I tend to play a game all the way through, then forget everything about it a week later, so I'll call it a win 😅

    ff8 was my first experience with Final Fantasy. I've had the same issue with 7. I would play through disc 1 and just stop. I could never get into it. FF8 and FF9 are my favorite of all time. But I'd say 8 is probably in my top 5 games of all time.

Also one thing i hate about 9 is the character models. FF8 looks sooo much better then ff9. The combat system in 9 is ehh. But black mage vivie is cool af in 9.

    Great did, I respect the list. I'm finally hanging up the cleats on the series. I've played every FF up until 15 and FF7 remake. I am disappointed with what they're doing with FF7, I think it would've made more sense to do what they're doing with FF8, but eh.. it's w/e now.
    My first consoles were my father's Atari😂 and NES and one of the games he had was FF1, so that was my first FF experience. SNES FF3 was my favorite for the longest time, as a matter of fact it's probably what got me hooked on FF. I still remember having a FF3 poster up on my wall in my room as a kid. Eventually FF10 took that #1 spot and for my least favorite I'd have to go with 9.

    I started playing every FF game a week ago. The only FF game I've ever played before that were VII and VIII and I of course love that game. I've only managed to play up to VI for now so I can't rate every game. But VII is still my favorite. But VI is actually not far behind. In fact, I'm having a blast playing it right now and I'm only at The Returner's hideout. Can't say much about the story but the gameplay is super fun. Especially Edgar's tools are extremely good, he is might favorite char so far. But Sabin's Blitz is also awesome and deals massive damage. And the fact that in theory everyone can use spells and summons is what I really like about this game. That's exactly why I didn't like the other games too much. The gameplay is too one-dimensional. In many of them magic isn't even viable, but the physical attackers don't really have any gimmicks. So for the most part it's just button smashing and that's not fun for me. FFVI did it right. Not everyone nees to be a magic user but they still should have some gimmick and versatility. Wether it's Edgar's tools or Shadow's Throw. FFVII also did it right with the command materia and limit breaks. Though that everyone can potentially use magic in these two games are a plus for me too. So for now my ranking is
    8. II for obvious reaons
    7. VIII once again, for obvious reaons.
    6. III. Too much grinding for the jobs, at the beginning they are all very weak. and again, too much button smashing.
    5. V. A better version of III but still the same problem with the job system.
    4. IV. No job system but still classes. Once again too much button smashing.
    3. I. Too much button smashing too but spells are at least somewhat viable.
    2. VI. The only FF pixel game I don't just like but thoroughly enjoy. Great story and characters, great music and very well thought out game mechanics. Everyone can use magic but most importantly they all have their own gimmicks. Really liking Edgar's tools, they made the game so far very easy. Sabin's Blitz is also fun to use. Also like the Relics. FFVI certainly isn't too far behind VII.
    1. VII. Nothing to say here. A perfect game and still the best FF game ever. For now. Might change once I continue.

      And that's okay! 15 did a lot of things that people loved 😀

    I commented before finishing the video about 14, but my favorite is 7. I love 14, 10, 6, so close up there. I can’t play 8, just a chore, and 13’s characters overall killed it for me. I liked the combat system but everyone was so unlikable outside of Sazh. 15 sucks.
