Even in 1997 FFVII was a generic game in terns if character and story. The only thing it had going for it was graphics which was fine in 1997 but has aged terribly.

FFVI on the other hand broke grounds in characters and storytelling while still holding up today as a beautiful looking game.

Nostalgia is a fantastic thing but it does a cloud judgment.  Have someone that has never played FFVI or VII play both today and I promise you they will hate VII.  VI, on the other hand, will be a much more intesting story.

I was one of those people who had never played it up until about a year or 2 ago and I vastly prefer VII. Came in blind going into both and, yeah... dunno, VI bored me. I never felt enticed to even beat the game, it was just... meh. VI was decent for its time I guess XD I'd always take VII over VI though.
