IvorEvilen said: When I first played Final Fantasy VI back in like 2004, it was because my best friend had recommended it to me. He didn't play many console rpgs, but it was his favorite of the ones he had played (and I had played many Final Fantasies before it), so I went in with higher expectations. Don't get me wrong, there were a lot of things I loved about Final Fantasy VI, but its shallow plot (in a plot-heavy game) and poor character interaction (I'm talking part 2 here) were a huge turn off. What mostly kept me going was the music, a few lovable characters (Ultros!), and the games relative ease.
Although, I should note that he also recommended Chrono Trigger and I fell in love with it. It is my second favorite SNES game, Dragon Quest VI being my favorite :)

I can agree with claims like "best wise-cracking octopus"; there's no doubt that FF6 is superior in that department. But lack of useless characters? Nani?
And Cait Sith gets a lot of bad press on account of the fact that he sucks, but he has catchy theme music and he does have uses...
Oh God, did you really just say Nani?
In fact, why even respond to my post? You didn't say anything.
