I've never played a final fantasy game and I want to try one out. There's like 5 of them on PS4 though, which ones are actually worth getting?
>>
>>383440320
X and XII are alright
XV is shit
XIV is an MMO
I don't know anything about WOFF
>>
>>383440320
FFX is meh to me but alot of people enjoy it and it plays alot like a classic FF
FFXII is amazing i highly recommend it
FFXIV is an mmo but its pretty good and still has a good active community
>>
Get X
>>
>>383440320
A first one out of these? That's rough man.

Probably 10 since it has the most elements that make a Final Fantasy a Final Fantasy game before this franchise started getting too "experimental"
>>
XIV is an MMO.
XV was super disappointing for me, but some people seem to like it.
XII is great, but it's not really a traditional FF, in a sense of the word
Not a big fan of X, but people like that one as well.
>>
>>383440320
all of those are terrible except X / X2
>>
X and XII

Accidently forgot to finish my post
I dont know much about World Of but it looks kind of interesting even tho its not a mainline game
FFXV is ass avoid it
>>
I like all of them. Start with either X or XII. XIV is an mmo, XV is pretty good the first time through, all of the little sidequests are awful fetch quests though and WoFF is pretty great, but it's better if you've played every other ff game to appreciate it a bit more. Plus it's a lot more childish and light hearted.
>>
WoFF is better than XV I can tell you that.
>>
>>383440924
Why's there so fucking many? There's also some disidia thing but that doesn't have a release date on amazon yet
>>
>>383440320
X is good. Dunno about X-2
XII is also good
XIV is alright for an MMO
XV is trash
WoFF is worth it if you're okay with the cute/comfy atmosphere and Pokémon esc mechanics. WoFF is probably the most underrated Final Fantasy ever
>>
>>383440320
every game is different but they are all japanese rpg's ,some with radically different gameplays, it's just a wildcard

>I don't know anything about WOFF

it's okay. Not a great FF but it was the best FF released in the past year that was not a remake/MMO expansion
>>
>>383440924
fuck off with this garbage
>>
>>383441064
Dissidia's a pseudo-fighting game crossover thing.

It came out on JP arcades a while back, and is getting a home console release.
>>
>>383440948
World of FF is great. I've been playing it on Vita for the last couple weeks.

Tragically incomplete you mean.
>>
>>383440320
14 has a free trial.
>>
>>383440320
Skip World of Final Fantasy.
XII is the best imo, but X, XII and XV are all worth playing.
If you liked XII and want an MMO, try XIV.
>>
>>383441312
XV is not worth playing and this is from someone got the Platinum in it

>>383441312
>Skip World of Final Fantasy.
Don't listen to this faggot, WoFF is dope as fuck.
>>
>>383441268
It was a psp game, give it slack >>383441245
Reread your sentence
>>
>>383440924
I'm conflicted with this game. I found the combat fun, but the story was such a bore. The overworld looked like bad too, you'd think they'd give that a touch up or something. Oh, and the English voice acting was ass, and I usually like English voices.

>>383441064
Its a big franchise what do you expect? Dissidia is a fighting game type thing, its really fun actually, Emulate the psp one if you can.

First response was really all you needed to hear, OP. >>383440476
X for story, XII for gameplay (unless you specifically want a FF game for turn based in which case just revert to X).

This is the best Final Fantasy game.
>>
>>383441562
I was hoping it would get better at some point. By the time the game was over, it never got better and I only need to do some minor shit to get the last 2-3 trophies I needed.
>>
>>383441363
XV's worth playing despite feeling incomplete. It dips during the later chapters but still ends well. I'd add that it's better to wait until every last bit of DLC has been released before buying it, if OP has left it this late to play it.
>>
>>383440320
X is definitely the best if you're just starting out. It's like the quintessential modern ff

After that you could try XII or XV. Both are decent in their own way
>XII is the patrician choice
>XV is newer and panders to normies

XIV should be something you play in between, if you even like mmorpgs

I've never played World of ff but obviously you'd need to play the others for the full effect

>>383440320
FXII, then emulate FFV on your toaster

Play X and XII

FFXIV is great but realize the game doesn't truly start until level 50 so there is some initial time investment required

not sure about WoFF, but there are xenogears references so that's cool

avoid XV and X-2
>>
X has an aged combat system but if you can look past that it's a great game.

XV is a definite must.

XV is awright.

Just get the VII remaster on PS4

Just pick up KH2FM instead of FFXV if you want an action game that's actually good. Same company.
>>
>>383444146
Well, 2.5 for the PSQuads
>>
>>383440320
XV is shit.
WOFF is shit.
X is good but the remaster sucks, you should emulate it.
XII is alright and the resmaster is alright.

You might enjoy the combat but the "story" is utter trash.
>>
>>383440320
XIV is an mmo. A WoW with a Final Fantasy paint on. While i like it, i would hardly recommend it to anyone. One of the worst leveling experiences, too much grind.
If you are interested in story then ARR is boring. HW is great - the, SB is fucking garbage.
Heavensward is the only good genuie Final Fantasy since 12. But yeah, to get to the HW quests you'll need to stomach through like 200 meh quests of ARR.

It's not like we don't have at least one thread shitting on the game every day and some guy became so autistic that only the barneyfag is more famous than him on this board currently.

>starting FF with a PS4 game
mistakes are being made

>>383441581
wouldn't call it the best but it's definitely a classic, and I'll never understand some of the hate it gets.

Just play 6 and be done with the main series

If you need more FF, play tactics
>>
>>383445523
is it like Xenoblade?
>>
i like ff15 for the combat primarily. early game is dreadfully boring with all the riding in the car shit, but the hunts and sidequests were pretty fun to grind away hours and hours. its a pretty easy platinum too if you care at all about that, and there is quite a bit of post-game stuff, even if most of it is entirely combat focused.

ff12 is my favorite but i've never played izjs so maybe i won't like it. it was also the first ff i beat.

You'll get the absolute least out of World of FF and FF14, but they're both still really good. Can't really go wrong with FFX or FF12 which is out in like a week.

the comabt for XV?

Nope. It's a "hold O to win" combat and that carries you for like 97% of all fights (like 2 specific enemies and bosses are the only things where this will not help you)

and some fights, it's "hold square (dodge" and counter. Like this webm
>>
>>383448250
Careful, you might summon XV-kun
>>
>>383448427
why?

It's like his shitposting can negate the truth that FFXV is bad

>>383448241
12 comes out on the 11th.
>>
>>383440320
X is very boring to play, but it's the most standard gameplay out of those you've posted.
XII is definitely one of the best of the mainline games, XV is garbage, XIV is an MMO, World of is stupid.
>>
>>383448468
I think XV-kun grew tired of not being able to defend this thurd so he created this gem >>383443164

You should at least emulate the earlier ones, they are the best.

I'm talking about FF6, 7, 8, and 9

8 is weak, but I included it anyway because it'd mess up my numbering otherwise.

Seriously though, they're very old and piss easy to emulate. Hell, you can play the PC ports of the PS1 games if you really want, because they will of course run on more or less anything.
>>
>>383441105
WHAT WHAT WHAT is Xenogears doing in it?
>>
>>383449587
>Including VIII
>Not including V

You fucked up.
>>
>>383440320
X and XII
XV's fine if you don't expect anything out of it, just keep your expectation really-REALLY low.
WoFF is fine if you handle the atrocious dialog and chibi artstyle
XIV is a long investment, try the free trial, if you have fun with it, subscribe if you like it. Oh, and find a buddy to play the trial with you, at low level, most would ignore you.

>WHAT WHAT WHAT is Xenogears doing in it?

secret boss

>>383441581
Yeah I agree. Great class system, high fantasy atmosphere, music, and difficulty (ds version)
>>
Just get VII off PSN
>>
>>383441581

It's pretty fun but fuck being forced to switch classes.
