FF2 is easily the worst.  I am saying this as someone who really likes FF1, and I like retro games in general (if they are good).  FF2 is just a plain terrible game.  It's leveling system is also very similar to a certain Western RPG that I really hate.

If you only want to count games that made it out of Japan on their original system, then I'd say FF8 is the worst.  I actually really liked the characters and story, but the gameplay was just terrible.  I mostly just wanted to play the card game, because it was fun, while the main game was a huge chore.  Of the FF games that I've actually beaten, it's the only one that I never want to play again.

Haven't played FF14 though (neither O.G or Reborn), and I only played FF15 for an hour and then never came back to it.  All of the other games that got a North American release on their original system I've beaten, and most of them are extremely good.
