Forums - Sony - FFXII is bar none the greatest Final Fantasy ever

FFXII is an amazing game, but I'll rank VI, IV and IX above FFXII. The thing that annoyed me in FFXII was the last few dungeons where pretty much every enemy would cast an ailment on you. There were a couple of other things that annoyed me in FFXII.

As for the worst, Crisis Core hands down.

Crisis Core is nowhere near as bad AS FF X-2.  That abomination is one of the worst games I have ever played.  I had no problem with Crisis Core to be honest, in fact I throuroughly enjoyed it

I'll tell you this: I couldn't finish FFX-2 because of atrocious dialogue. It was so awful and girly that I just couldn't force myself to continue playing it.  The battle system was alright but nothing spectacular.

Crisis Core: I finished it but didn't enjoy it one bit. At least I managed to play it for more than 5 hours unlike FFX-2.

I'm inclined to agree that XII is the best modern FF, though not for the reasons you list. I think the maturity of its story, script, and voice acting count for far more than the combat system - no Final Fantasy, hell, no video game has accomplished as much as FFXII on that front. Plenty of games, and even a couple of FFs (including the otherwise loathsome XIII) have better combat systems.



Top 10:

10: FF X
9: FF I
8: FF V
7: FF XIII
6: FF VII
5: FF VIII
4: FF XII
3: FF IV
2: FF IX
1: FF VI

 

Sorry to any FF X fans I might offend.



I like it lots



(I haven't played XIII yet)
MY top 10 are:
1- VI (The doom and gloom in the story, makes this great)
2- VII (Don't need to explain?)
3- V (Played on GBA, I like this game more for the gameplay over story-both are good still)
4- X
5- IV
6- IX
7- VIII (This game is a lot better than most people think, I loved the battle system in this game the most)
8- X-2
9- I
10- XII

4th best IMO. Very good game with lots of extras to do.
