Final Fantasy VI.
I grew up as a Nintendo kid and my real first console was the N64, and the only RPG I played on that was Paper Mario (that's probably the only good RPG on the N64 anyway), it wasn't until the Gamecube that I slowly started playing the genre and at the beginning of the 7th gen was when I was truly into RPGs. I had a PC where I couldn't play anything so the only thing I could do was emulate old games, so I started playing RPG from the NES, SNES and handheld. I always heard online that FF VI was like perfection when it comes to RPGs (alongside Chrono Trigger, and FF VII), I thought that maybe people were exaggerating but I decided to play and holy hell did I love that game, it became my second favorite game of all time (my favorite is Ocarina of Time), and Kefka is by far the best villain in any video game. Funny enough I don't like FF VII all that much, VI is a far supirior game imo.
