A lot of people think that FF7 was groundbreaking, but in truth everything you liked from FF7 was copied from FF6. Magitech, Active Time Battle System, ridiculously epic cutscenes, open (for its time) world design, large cast of recruitable characters, iconic villian, etc. Seven only really added 3D graphics to the mix. But IMO seven is a pretty damned good sequel.
Edit: Just wanted to add in that FF6 is part of what I call the big SNES 5. Five games that are utter masterpieces and have stood the test of time perfectly. They are...
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy VI
Super Mario World
A Link to the Past
Super Metroid
