Because it was the first RPG to get a massive marketing budget in the west. Hype sells. Hype influences opinions. Before the game came out there were countless adds that pounded in your head that this was going to be the best RPG ever. A lot of people bought into the hype. |
That and a lot of people that say FFVII is the best RPG ever never played FF I-VI. I'm sure if I hadn't played any of those games FFVII would be near the top of my list too.
