6 > 9 > 12 and 10 being the worst.

By TheRightDeal Go To PostAlways lurked the FF community on GAF but never posted. Top three for me are VI, VIII, and XII. Recently been replaying IX and it probably has the strongest opening out of any of them.

I have always said that. 9's opening is so god damn strong, it's got so much forward momentum and I swear there's no chill till at least disc 2. It's phenomenal with how it hooks you.

Awful character designs. Tidus looks like me in the 6th grade after I unzipped the bottom halves of my pants (remember those?) and I lost a leg. And he's not even the worst. terrible villains. A game more tragic than the story it was attempting to tell.

Okay... it's not THAT horrible. Just didn't jive with me :p. For what it's worth, I "get" the laughing scene.

Same reaction.

For me, you may not like FFX, but everything it tried to do, it did a pretty good job. The characters make sense for the story, the world feels alive, etc. Just on the gameplay alone it could never be the worst. FFX, FFX-2, FFXII, and FFXIII/LR easily have the best designed battle systems in the series. FFVI through FFIX's typical ATB systems don't even come close.

Edit: I do agree the clothes in FFX are pretty bad as a whole.

Haha, Tidus design is pretty dumb. I really like Yuna's design, though, and Auron is one of the best characters in the franchise I think. I like Lulu too (but wth with those belts), Rikku is my girl too. But yeah overall the designs are pretty eh, the less we talk about Seymour's hair the better. The English VA is pretty bad too (actually has FF ever had good English VA?).

I love the battle system though and I think it has one of the best endings to any Final Fantasy.
