That's a bit unfair, wouldn't you think?
There are plenty of RPGs I prefer over several main installments of Final Fantasy; Xenogears, Vagrant Story, Dragon Quest VIII, Disgaea, Valkyria Chronicles, FFT are all, in my opinion, better than FF VII and VIII.

good choices

I'm surprised that I missed Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger though.
|
on that note, it's too bad SoM3 never came out of Japan, that game was pretty damn good, I think I'll just label you as a "mostly" Square Fanatic instead.
|
I agree, it was pretty good.
I don't think I'd agree with any label you'd try to apply. Surely you can't accurately do so from only hearing a few preferences. True, I loved just about all of their older stuff, but honestly... what JRPG fan didn't?
To be honest, I much prefer the efforts of Atlus, NIS, Intelligent Systems and especially Level-5 over Square for the past 7-8 years.

there were ones that rivaled them which were never released out of Japan =/ one example being that ToP was easily just as good as Chrono Trigger or FF6, I've always loved Breath of Fire series as well. there were a lot of good JRPGs during the SNES days or PSone days overall on top of alot of SRPGs that never went out of Japan either. you also missed Valkyrie Profile btw, and I guess Star Ocean is pretty much just a Tales clone so not much to say there.

I loved both the Lufia and the BoF series but didn't like them near as much as the FF's of the time.
Valkyrie Profile... I like it. But it just didn't stick with me much. Same can be said for the Star Oceans, except for Last Hope... That was just dreadful.
