Good rpg; mediocre FF game.
DiMaRi
agree with you OP. still my fav game.
Insertnewusernamehere
Agreed!
DoctorDelta
I think THIS is the best RPG ever
TheRealStalinWhoIsStandingUp
The RPG-18 is also kida sweet
Tikityler
They had the number right but wrong pic. it was the RPG-VII
MrPeterCapaldi
6 was better, but glad you get to relive your childhood. :)
KingKelloggTheWaffleHaggler
6 is pretty cool. But I think it falls short compared to the other ones after.
rykinpoe
Everyone getting all excited about the FF7 remake and I am wishing they would do a decent release of 6 without ugly cellphone graphics.
duanedibleythedukeofdork
6 had so many holy shit moments for a snes rpg. And the graphic/music changes during the world of ruin... fuck this i'm gonna go play it!
good2go4ne1
Uematsu is a genius. I listen to the ff6 OST and piano collections all the time. Also I liked 6 more than 7. Close decision though
Privategrabass
meh, 6 had better characters and (IMO) a better soundtrack, and looking back I feel the graphics hold up better than 7
strideo
FF6 has one of the most amazing endings ever put on a console. For a 16bit sprite based game it blows my mind.
Privategrabass
seriously, every character, minus the 2 bonus ones, had such good character arcs to the point where at the ending you feel connected to them
tommymessala
I love the little cracks on the cover, memories.
Anonyfurb
Every single time. I don't know if I ever met somebody that owned that game and didn't have cracks somewhere on the box.
Trygore
This was my favorite game so many years ago. Never forget the games that made you fall in love with gaming. Everyone has their own.

Mine has the same exact cracks. Wtf.

I spent hours trying to get the quad slash and mimic

I spent way too much time breeding the gold chocobo to get knights of the round table
Omnislash9
That's the joy of it! Pair it wth Quadra magic and have somebody Mime that, and boom, ten minutes of watching that summon and you've won
colfish
Unless you're fighting Emerald Weapon. :(
Omnislash9
Oh.... Oh yeah. Fuck that guy.
besieged
Star Ocean 2, definitely the best.
VinylFantasyIV
I disagree...
Ihatetard
Favorite game of all time for me. Sooo bummed the remake got delayed another year.
patches85
I loved that game. I am excited for the redux if it ever gets released
numbonvalium
best JRPG: Xenogears. best RPG: tie between Dragon Age: Origins and Witcher 3.
strideo
Best JRPG's: Suikoden 1,2,&3. Criminally underrated.
numbonvalium
I liked 5 the best, to be honest. I think we can all agree it is weird they skipped 4.
VaIerie
I liked Legend of the Dragoon more personally. Still great game though, I hope they don’t destroy it in the remake...
Alavar
Square Enix apparently doesn't like learning from their mistakes with Hitman and are gonna release in episodes lol.
LayDeDeadpool
If it ever got remastered, it'd be the most beautiful game ever... of all time

condor120
One of my favorites of all time. I still replay it every year or so

Blecch. The dub job ruined Dragoon for me. Loved the combat system, though. Alt title: "What a coincidence: The Video Game"

Legend of dragoon is best hands down

Wait . . What? They're remaking it?

FFVII? Yes. Dragoon? No.

great. Now I'm going to have to go play it.

Nice April Fools you dirty son of a bitch. +1
Dogman1227
It's not though, FFVII is getting a full blown remake. They say it will release on the PS4, don't know about Xbox One, though I hope not.
TresusIbor
Oh, I thought he was saying there was a Legend of Dragoon remake in the works.
justleaveittome
Fuck you rose.
pleonidas
I used to like legend of Dragoon and replayed it not too long ago, I'll just say I remember it being more fun than it was.

Do not read into what is going on with the remake. It is no bueno.
QuackDodgers
You mean the remaster?... Where nothing changes but graphics and bugs?
Alavar
No it's a complete remake.

I’m sorry, the usage of Timed Hits puts all these “wait your turn and choose wisely” RPG’s to shame; Super Mario RPG is the reigning king.

You know you can download that game from the PS store. I'm playing it now on PS4
ThatRandomCanadian
And steam for PC. Just plug in a controller.

I played for the first time on the 4 i got it for 2 dollars really solid game especially for two dollars i can't wait for the remake and kh3

Can't wait for remake on ps4.

Chrono Trigger > Seiken Detsetsu 3 > FF6 > Secret of Mana > FF7. Squaresoft was a huge part of my childhood. RIP.
TypoNinja
What, no Earthbound?
HiddenSanity
Man, I still need to get around to poking that, missed trying it as a kid, havn't put time aside for it as adult... maybe with my niece?
SemiC0L0N
So close! Chronic Trigger >Lunar(sega cd version) >Secret of Mana >FF6 > FF7. I never played the other mana games, though I always wanted to
NotWelcomehere
You're both forgetting about Vagrant Story, and Suikoden! Oh fuck and Legend of Dragoon!
ThatPersonStalkingYou
Lod is favorite game of all time.
schanzen
On Vagrant Story: Never got past the dino (?) at the end of the forest. I built out poorly and got myself stuck. Someday I'll start again.
PleaseDoNotThrowHandsAtMe
HARPOON
Photeus
I'm with you on all of these but I had a soft spot for Lufia 2 as well. Beating down uppity Sinistrals was always good.
HiddenSanity
Fair enough, I missed trying that one as a kid, for me it was Kefka, disliked him on a personal level, each point of damage was satisfying.
AlexisActually
I would put FF6 over Seiken Densetsu 3 by a pretty wide margin. I didn't even like FF7, though, so I'm obviously a shitter.
PleaseDoNotThrowHandsAtMe
Solid agreement with that first statement, disagree with the second. It’s almost like this shits somewhat subjective
HiddenSanity
It was close for me... FF6 was the first time I truly hated a fictional being, but SD3 was the first time I cried at fiction. KARL! No!!!
RobinHorn
Also, Chrono Cross
CanadianSwordFighter
It was a good game, overshadowed by Chrono Trigger though.
ZKrock
It's a game, yes. That's all I'll give it.
TheOnlyOriginalScreenNameLeft
It fell pretty short. It barely tied into the first game at all.
ReleaseTheBeeees
I'm going to be "that guy". FF9 is a better game
fingernailradio
Just finished that on my phone. It was good. I liked both, but 2 was my fave.
Tikityler
I'm gonna be that guy, this is the best RPG-7
calzenth
I've been saying that since FF9 was new.
AussieMate26
So by "that guy" you mean wrong then yes
Whitebeardthepirate
you're not the only "that guy" FF9 was my favorite.
TGWolf
Every FF bar 13 and LR is better than this. 13-2 barely edges it out by having one of the few time travel plots in gaming that isn't shit.
Whitebeardthepirate
yeah, because something like 12 was awesome where you had to learn how to wear a fucking hat before you could put it on.
ReleaseTheBeeees
The gambit system was fucking brilliant, it's a shame the story was poor
CuttleFishOfCthulu
*8
ThisIsSteel
I don't get the hate for 8 (or 9). Lobed both, replayed them as much as I've replayed 7.
Medionsinger
For me personally I thought it had stupid characters, awful plot, and exploitable combat. I like Doomtrain though.
Oloh
It was pretty good. I was personally a big fan of Final Fantasy Tactics
ItMightBeShortButItSureIsSkinny

effigyoma
Tactics holds up much better
thewheatis
Best game of all time
F1L0Y1
I need to try that sometime. I got into that style of gameplay through FE.
ZeroRenown
Ayyye that's my favorite as well! Thanks for reminding me to play it again, internet stranger :)
ijustwanttoeven
I’ve bought this game on 4 platforms now and play through it at least once a year. The music was great. Wish it had a real sequel.
BananaSlam
I've used up so much of my life playing this game... time well spent
hankdogg
I played the hell out the FF Tactics Advance on the GBA.

Best 300+ hours on the PS1.

9 and Tactics are my faves! Even if Tactics can be absolutely brutal at times

That's because you're correct and OP is not.

I liked tactics remake on PSP and VIII more than VII
PecosBill
Cloud Strife is in both games.
javer80
Too bad his Limit Breaks are only possible with one particular sword, and it's not that great a weapon

I love Final Fantasy Tactics.....my Fav but FF7 and super mario rpg.... both those games got me into jrpgs in the 90's.

Yyyyyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeaaaaa bbbboooooiiiuuu

vitfall
Tactics certainly allowed more freedom and character customization, but I really like FF7's story. It was more concrete (1/2)
vitfall
in terms of who were the antagonists, while Tactics was more like hating ideas. Boss fights frequently start with "who are you?" in FFT 2/2.

Still play on my phone.

thtlover
I preferred 9 myself
HelpfulHomo
And it's ok to be wrong. /gentlenod
F1L0Y1
Ditto
HolyStalactite
9 will always be my favorite, perfect balance of old school rpg and growing rpg mechanics. Not to mention an epic story.
thtlover
Yea I agree. It was just such a good game through and through
thegoodnoches
I loved 9. X was cool bc of the graphics, but I felt X's story was a letdown compared to 7 and 9's story.
thtlover
I always thought 9 had the best overall story
thegoodnoches
Me too. Wish they had the arcade from 7 tho
thtlover
I never got that far in 7
magnificentbastard
I loved 9 as well. Last FF I played and beat.
thtlover
Yea it was the only one were I really appreciated the story and worked hard to make sure every part was beat
redronin911
I have played 1-7, 10, 13 and 15. What made 9 stand out to you? I want to play it, but not sure if I can lay down the time for another FF.
thtlover
For me it was the characters. They felt like their actual reactions to things would be more realistic and the over all story was amazing
redronin911
Cool. I love a game with a good story and characters. I will play it when I finish far cry 5.
sticksosteel
Hollar. Delita is an all time favorite character, but Wiegraf takes a close second. Lots of great characters really
Czeksmyx
Needs more Worker 8
NightlordKrusnik
......Why? Legit asking. I mean I think he's a good character, because he managed to make me hate him so much. But I still hate him, y'know?
sticksosteel
Because he had ambitions, drive, real personality. He’d been betrayed by the world’s lies about justice, and he turned those lies against it
souleater2847
Well watching your sister get shot by “homie” will do that shit to you.
Allanonshea1
That's cause tactics WAS THE SHIT. Monk ninja for the fucking WIN. also time knight. That can dual wield and teleport
Suntok
I always ended up with a near full party of priests with calculate. Just kill everything on the first turn, no need to worry about defense.
ijustwanttoeven
I used to slap monk on to freakin everything until I could get some other stuff rolling. Loved samurai too for the AoE buffs and heals.
Allanonshea1
Gave my wizard an axe and had him learn chakra so he could always cast at least a basic spell
javer80
Backed up by a Summoner that can do math. Turn anyone the ninjas can't reach into mildly radioactive ash - across the map, for free
Allanonshea1
I never did the math route. Was it really that good? Seemed like it wasn't worth it also hurting my allies
javer80
Good question! It really depends on how you do with multiplication tables - you scan heights, levels, etc, then try to isolate your targets.
Allanonshea1
Well I was like.. 12 when I played so I was decent, but you know how kids feel about doing math
Allanonshea1
I can see this working.... Having a group with math as the secondary skill and one calculator for primary damage. Set the members to damage
Allanonshea1
So basically it seems like you position your entire team to blast off a round of the math without hitting themselves
UrsusDerpus
It’s good, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best.
javer80
Be happy for a guy, willya?
SuperLuckyBlackCat
EVER!!
senefen
I agree, it's not my favourite of the series. I think it's overhyped b/c as it was the first for a lot of people + nostalgia.
birdbrainedphoenix
Best of the series was FF3 (aka FF6). But that's just like, my opinion, man.
AlexisActually
It's the best because Kefka is the best because he did what he set out to do. No other villain accomplished as much.
nyaore
I'd agree with you honestly. Ironically I played it after starting with 7 and working my way up through 10.
senefen
Ha ha, that's mine too.
Eastcoastthoughtprocess
My hero.
DickNickels
I like RPGs. Which is the best?
UrsusDerpus
The Legend of Heroes/Trails of- series and Persona scratch my JRPG itch, but right now I’m hyped for Pillars of Eternity 2
Eastcoastthoughtprocess
As far as FF goes I’d say VI imo.
strideo
Suikoden II was the best RPG to come out on the PS1.
honkhonkhonk
Die pig!
chunkums
Depends how you're defining RPGs. I'm 31 and have been gaming for a long time. I think Witcher 3 is the best if it qualifies.
thtlover
That’s all opinion based

Some of my favourites: Wild ARMs, Wild ARMs 2, Legend of Legaia, Legend of Dragoon, FVIII, FXII, FX, SMT: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha1/2
Buckbeak1486
vs. The Soulless Army, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abadon. 2/2
Dalumbr
You get an upvote for starting with Wild ARMs. I get disappointment because 2 wasn't released in Australia
Buckbeak1486
Why wasn't 2 released in Australia?
Dalumbr
I've got no clue, i was way too young to know anything about it when it happened. I know 3 was, and i've still got 1 and 3.
Kompi
I personally like FF9, Digimon World and Persona 3/4
Deathyt
digimon world 1 without the internet and guide book was just impossible
Kompi
Definitely difficult. The atmosphere was great and the gameplay had a lot of potential with some flaws wish they expanded upon it in sequels
