I'm an oddball in that I don't associate my liking to any particular "era" of FF. I like the old games and the new games, and there are a few on both sides that rubbed me the wrong way.
My least favorite of the SNES titles was FFIV, I was sometimes frustrated by the battle system and thought some of the plot "twists" were absurd, like all the melodrama where you're made to think each and every one of your party members "died" at some point only for them to come back later with a little "I'm not dead yet!" and rejoins your party. There was also that part at the top of the Tower of Babel when you're about to get the crystals when Cecil falls down a trapdoor, shrugs, and walks away. Seriously, a trap door?
I think FFVII is hugely overrated but still better than FFVIII (the worst), even Mystic Quest is better than that game. I actually liked X2 better than X because it actually had a good battle system. I'm also one of 5 people here that liked FFXII.
