Nah, 8, 9 & 10 are peak.

13 is average, but not bad per se, while 12 is the worst.

I hater the 12 when I first played but gave a second chance on the remaster and man it was good, a lot better than X.

VII is pretty good, it sure has its problems like the story being all over the place for no good reason, but it's a great game.

IX is the only FF I loved from the very start, all others had to prove themselves (or not) in the go, but IX is a joy from the second you hear the first sound before you even play it.

XII is still my fav, tho.

The espers aquisition and usage (and Zodiark fight), quickning/concurrences, the license board, the gambit system, the judges, the music, the story, Fran, the guild hunts, the amount of content... it's just ridiculously good.

Even as I didn't like it from the get go like IX, and XII not having the best main char by far, XII is still undoubtly the best FF I have ever played.

At first I hated XII, I just liked the idea of no random encounter (makes a lot more sense since monster don't just appear out of nothing) but the gameplay and confusing upgrade system lost me. But I gave a shot on the remaster after seeing some praises for XII and loved it, perhaps because of internet I understood the game better and was able to like it.

Yeah, i have the same experience with 12, i look down and even  despise when it first came out. It has different vibe compared to the previous FF games where it has Yoshitaka Amano and Hironobu style. But then again the departure from the old classic turn based into an action  tactical turn based made the game enjoyable and fun, or  interesting.

The problem is the story it  just to short and lack of grandeur and less majestic feeling in term world setting and fantasy. It also has Star Wars Vibe. But i do love the political story , it just it's not to Fantasy compared to FF 10 and the rest. 

Yeah the battle is good it keep the RPG elemnet of tactic, turn based, but at the same time the option to move around and freedom
