Storyline is what makes a Final Fantasy game

FF1-played before got turned off by story
FF2-ditto above
FF3-played the DS version, liked
FF4-never played
FF5-never played
FF6-never played
FF7-the best Final Fantasy in history
FF8-on par with FF7 but generally was rather bland
FF9-story was confusing and boring
FF10-Awesome story and truly engaging characters
FF11-boring MMO,
FF12-boring story and truly not so good characters

FF13-by the look of it, looks boring and the characters look bland. Gameplay is to be determined

No offense but you can't call FF7 the best Final Fantasy game in history without play 6. If storyline is what you find important, 6 beats the rest of the Final Fantasy games in spades.

 QFT, Story wise I loved that game, I do think it had too many cannon fodder type characters, but the ones that mattered were great. AND KEFKA!!! BEST VILLAIN EVER!!! I HATED HIM XD
